The first book I curated the design of for work is finally in my hands! Friend asked me to hold it like a man holds a gigantic fish 🐟

It was so lovely to attend the launch party last night for the utterly incredible A Song of Legends Lost by @mhayinde.bsky.social! It was good fun to chat to her (and to show off my nerdy manga tattoos to a fellow manga fan) - if you haven’t got yourself a copy, fix that and buy one NOW 🤩

You MUST they are honestly so excellent!!

The reading guide is here and also can be found on www.robinhobb.com/works.htm, highly recommend to read in publication order as there are so many little bits in some books that make sense in others. It’s a series full of ‘OHHHH’ moments 🤩

I know it may be early to start looking to 2025 reading goals, but my main one is to read the rest of the Robin Hobb books!

The Realm of the Elderlings fast became one of my favourite worlds, and I can’t wait to read the rest of these spectacular books. 9 to go!

Recently discovered the #Dragonlance series and am having the absolute best time reading it - finished reading the first book today and now watching the animated film! Love an old school fantasy

I missed it by a DAY but shh

HAPPY 6TH BIRTHDAY TO RED DEAD REDEMPTION 2! This game means so much to me. It’s my comfort game, I have so many gameplay hours, and I’m forever in awe of the craft, the detail, and the story of this game 💕

Here are some in-game shots!

Hi Bluesky! The first post is always the worst I feel like I’ve been asked to share a fun fact about myself 😶‍🌫️

Hi, I’m Layla - here’s my #bookshelves full of fantasy books, manga, York Ghosts, and far too many candles - it’s nice to meet you all!
