Read in February 2026
February turned out to be a somewhat more difficult reading month. Not so much because I didn’t read much, but mainly because several books I had chosen with fairly positive expectations ended up being more disappointing than enjoyable. As a result, I found myself deciding not to finish books quite often this month, sometimes even after I had already read…

Illumicrate #40: January 2026
The first Illumicrate of 2026 is a fact, and wow…what a start! Both Fairyloot and Illumicrate are off to a flying start for the new year! This month’s theme was Power of Death. Not a small, cozy theme, but a pretty powerful message. It promises an epic fantasy book with a unique magic system…and yes, I’m already sold. But as…

Fairyloot Adult #47: January 2026
A new year, a new series of book boxes on the horizon. And yes, even though I resolve every year to be more selective and use my skip options more often, there’s always something that makes me hesitate. For this first FairyLoot box of 2026, it was mainly the impressive list of artists. That alone made my mouth water. And…

Read in January 2026
My reading year is off to a good start for the first month of 2026. I started January with a fairly clear reading plan, with a few books I really wanted to read, but that plan was quickly turned upside down. Not due to a lack of time or a reading slump, but because one book completely consumed my mind…

More KPop Demon Hunter Makes: Derpy & Sussie
When I told you earlier about my crocheted Huntrix dolls, I already admitted that the original plan was actually even more ambitious. In my mind, not only were three girls supposed to appear, but also the Saja Boys. Only, yes, that idea turned out – surprise, surprise – to be a bit too ambitious. Luckily, the Huntrix dolls were finished…

My 2026 reading goals
We’re already pretty much at the end of January, and yet I still haven’t properly defined my reading goals for 2026. Not because I lack ideas, but because I’ve been searching for the right approach. When I look back at my two recent reflection posts – one about my 2025 reading goals and one about the accompanying numbers and statistics…

Read in 2025: the numbers
After my extensive reflection on the reading goals of 2025, it’s now time to delve even deeper into the hard data. Not to force conclusions, but rather to see whether my feelings about the reading year 2025 are supported or contradicted by the data. Unlike in previous years, this time I’m not throwing everything into one big pile. This post…

Huntrix dolls
If you’ve been following my On the Go posts over the past few months, you know that my creative world has been completely dominated by the Netflix film KPop Demon Hunters. For my niece’s birthday, you already saw the knitted Huntrix sweater, and today it’s the turn of another project from that same fandom corner: the crocheted Huntrix dolls, which…

Looking Back on My Reading Goals of 2025
Over the past few years, I’ve always kicked off the new reading year with one enormous post packed full of statistics, graphs and numbers about my reading habits from the year before. That single monster post combined everything at once: a review of my reading goals, an in-depth analysis of my stats, and the setting of new goals for the…

Huntrix sweater
It took just over three months to finish this sweater, from the very first idea to weaving in the very last thread. And as you’ve read several times in my On the Go updates over the past few months, it was anything but a straightforward process. There was an initial idea that I tackled with great enthusiasm. The stitches flew…
