In January: I tried book photography and welcome back Kim!

OKAY. Here goes my first recap post!

I've been blogging:

• you guys loved my Witches Black and Silver Snazzy Snippets
• remember, the next Snazzy Snippets is next week on February 1st! Join us for a Valentine edition~
• have some Chinese takeout in a traditional teahouse?
• we celebrated 7 types of villain deaths last week inspired by Cait
• join my takeout army for an extra, non-spoilery death scene from Matryoshka!

I've been reading:

First photo was inspired by Cait @ Paper Fury's levitating book photo. Not 100% happy with the execution, but the concept perhaps? The second photo was my first photo edited through VSCOcam. Blookunity, book photography advice please? Critiques very welcome!

In January, I reviewed WOLF BY WOLF (January favourite!), Illuminae, The Game of Love and Death, The Zombie Survival Guide, and The Novel Planner on Goodreads.

Friend me on Goodreads for bookish updates, and add me on Tumblr for more book photos!

I've been writing:

I'm making SO MANY edits to Matryoshka, my revenge-gone-wrong novel in a multicultural city with a sassy justice lady! I'm joining Cait and Emily in their #rewriteathon on Twitter, hoping to finish in March.

A huge thank you to my betas, first of all, whose advice has/will help me a great deal. Some plans are changing Thomas' name and breaking away from my shared-character-name streak with Cait (I've mentioned her four times this post, we're clearly cybertwins anyways); adding a Chekhov's knife that will amuse me; and miraculously not killing off new characters.

Stay updated on my writing news by joining my takeout army! If you join within these two weeks, you'll receive a bonus prequel scene of Matryoshka.

The superlatives of the blookunity:

(Has anyone been to Model United Nations conference where they vote on cutest delegation and next Malala or whatnot? This is the blookunity equivalent.)

• The Zombie Apocalypse Squad Leader: Emily shares 12 hilarious places to shelve and weaponise your books.
