Book: Studying Her Vikings by Skye MacKinnon (Norsemen Academy #1)


Studying Her Vikings by Skye MacKinnon is an interesting take on time travel. The book revolves around Lainie, a girl who gave up everything to go to an academy to learn how to travel through time, Time Travel Academy, or TTA as it is referenced in the book. 

Now, this book is actually really short, it is only about 50 pages or so. It is broken up into five novellas, in a serial format, that has actually been bound up into one book! I just found that out after I had read this first part, which covers the first five chapters or so of the novel. This was a freebie from the Kindle store so I decided to try it out.

Manga: Our Blood Oath by Kazu Kakazu


Our Blood Oath by Kakazu Kazu is a fairly new shounen manga from Shounen Jump! As good as the story is though, it is only a oneshot. That's right, folks, this is also a short-lived manga series like Guardian of the Witch by Sakano Asahi and Time Paradox Ghostwriter by Ichima Kenji. They all have amazing stories that could very well keep going in a serial but unfortunately, they don't last.

Book: His First Time: Nick by Ann Omasta & Callie Love


His First Time: Nick by Ann Omasta and Callie Love is a Christmas themed romance! It is a very short novella that is part of a series, although it can be read alone. It is not required to read the rest of the series to understand the events that happen within this installment, but some characters from the others books do appear and vice versa. 

Now, I read this book around Christmas time, I really wanted to try to get into a Christmas-y mood since 2020 hasn't been the greatest. Unfortunately, we, in the Northeast, did not get much snow this year which really sucks! So, I went on the Kindle store to see if I could find any freebie Christmas themed books to get me into the holiday spirit and lo and behold I found this short novella!
