This advertisement is for The Atlas Complex—the heart-shattering finale to the dark academia series that began with Olivie Blake’s NYT bestselling The Atlas Six. 
The original artwork featured in this image is by Little Chmura.
WHAT’S IT ABOUT
An explosive return to the library leaves the six Alexandrians vulnerable to the lethal terms of their recruitment.
Knowledge Is Carnage
Old alliances fracture as those who remain within the archives wrestle with the ethics of their astronomical abilities. Elsewhere, an unlikely pair from the Society partner up to influence politics on a global stage while the outside world mobilizes to destroy them all. And as for the Society’s Caretaker, Atlas Blakely… He may yet succeed in his world-breaking plan. 
Destiny Is a Choice
It all comes down to this: The Society recruits must decide what and who they're willing to betray and destroy for limitless power. 
Power Is Taken

hello! i saw your answer to the ask about no longer publishing your old work, does this mean they won’t be available at all anywhere? i was really curious about alpha since i really liked the way the writing (and little chmura’s art) flowed in the comic format in clara and the devil. anyway follow up question completely unrelated, will you do more graphic novel/webtoon type work in the future?
no, they will no longer be available. @littlechmura and I have big news coming soon!! but as I said in a video at some point (sorry for this SUPER delayed answer) chmura's art style changed a lot since we started that project, so the graphic novel format wasn't working for the final installment. I think we will probably do something different for Alpha eventually, like maybe a webtoon adaptation in a different illustrative style, but it might be awhile

Riding the Wave of Ocean Heroes: Conservation & Sustainability
Hello lovelies ໒꒰ྀི´ ˘ ` ꒱ྀིა I hope you've been doing great since the last entry hehe. I just wanted to express my heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you for your ongoing support and interaction with my weekly updates. This post will be my last (at least for a while). I really hope you've managed to pick up a thing or two from my blog. Thank you for being here, and I appreciate all of you (づ๑•ᴗ•๑)づ♡
Now, let's dive into something super cool today – marine conservation and how we can be kinder to our oceans.
Tumblr media
Did you know? Around half of the world's population lives within 100 kilometers of the coast. That's a lot of people living near the sea, right?
Coastal places by the sea are like gold mines for our planet. They help out the global economy, and they do some pretty amazing stuff, like storing carbon (which is great for the environment), protecting our shores, and providing us with yummy food (Mcleod et al. 2011; Barbier et al. 2011).
You see, more than 775 million people really rely on the sea and its coastal wonders (Selig et al. 2018). For example, fish is a big deal, giving about 3.2 billion people some of their protein. It's even more crucial in places where people are still developing their countries (FOA 2018). Plus, it's not just food; it's like a vitamin boost in your meal. And, tons of people make a living out of fishing and farming seafood, almost 57 million of them! (FOA 2018).
Now, when we talk about tropical spots near the sea, they're like treasure chests. There are amazing places like coral reefs, mangroves, and seagrasses that are teeming with life, and they help out our planet in so many ways. That's why a bunch of groups and campaigns are working hard to keep these places safe and sound.
Let's focus into how people in Malaysia are doing for a sec. Here are some rock stars doing their part to save these coastal wonders:
ICRI (International Coral Reef Initiative) Malaysia: These people are all about creating safe spaces in the sea for our underwater buddies to thrive. Right now, only 1.4% of Malaysia's waters are protected. They're on a mission to change that!
The Dugong & Seagrass Conservation Project: This one's all about saving dugongs (those adorable sea cows) and the seagrass they munch on in the Bay of Brunei, Lawas, Sarawak East Malaysia. It's a big deal because these seagrasses need some protection from overfishing and other stuff that could hurt them. The locals are getting in on the action too.
Tropical Research and Conservation Centre: These ocean heroes are based in the Celebes Sea, and they're all about saving sea turtles and fixing up coral reefs that got bashed up by fish bombing practices in Malaysia. They're on a mission to keep our underwater world vibrant and healthy.
So, there you have it! These incredible peeps are working hard to make sure our oceans stay awesome. It's all about taking big steps and little steps, but together, we can keep those secret underwater gardens thriving 🌊⋆。°்⋆
Tumblr media
Author's note: One of my all-time favorite YouTube channels recently released a new video that I believe is absolutely worth your time. His videos are like compelling stories paired with stunning cinematography. In this latest video, he highlights the alarming issue of the world's coral reefs deteriorating. It's crucial to shed light on real-world issues that are overlooked.

January - March 2023 | Reading Wrap Up
Hello all!
Since I'm no longer reading enough to do monthly wrap ups (much to my chagrin, life continues taking over and I'm fighting from my corner), I thought I'd do a three-month one instead 😅
Code: books read in English are in black, books read in Spanish are in red and the book I read in French is in blue.
JANUARY (1)
• Loathe to Love You (The STEMinist Novellas #1-3) - Ali Hazelwood → 3.5/5
My year began pretty disappointing, with only one book (a collection of three novellas) to show for the whole of January.
The good: very fun, fast and easy to read. It was also a buddy read with a friend, so I had someone to chat with!
The bad: all three books I've read by Ali Hazelwood have been exactly the same tropes, characters, and basically plots over and over again. Which, I enjoy them, but reading three of the same thing in a row, even if they were short, was a bit too much.
FEBRUARY (2)
• The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches - Sangu Mandanna → 4/5
• Mysteries of Thorn Manor (Sorcery of Thorns #1.5) - Margaret Rogerson → 3/5
Two very good and enjoyable books marked my February! I really enjoyed Sorcery of Thorns back when I read it in 2020 so it was nice to go back to the world for a little bit, and Sangu Mandanna's was lovely, peaceful, and a nice pick-me-up in dreary weather. I'll definitely look out for other books from the same author!
MARCH (5)
• L'Énigme de la chambre 622 - Joël Dicker → 1/0
• Los Cinco y el tesoro de la isla (Los Cinco #1) - Enid Blyton, translation by Juan Ríos de la Rosa → 3.5/5
• Otra aventura de los Cinco (Los Cinco #2) - Enid Blyton, translation by Juan Ríos de la Rosa → 3/5
• The Answer You Are Looking For Is Yes (A Witch Way Anthology #1) - Olivie Blake → 4/5
• Clara and the Devil - Olivie Blake & Little Chmura → 3.5/5
It took me THREE MONTHS to finish Joël Dicker's so I think that alone speaks for itself. I really enjoyed his Harry Quebert book when I read it back in 2016, so that's what prompted me to buy this other one, and it was just... So terrible. So, so bad. If I could rate it negative points, I would. At least I bought it second-hand in a book fair so it only cost 2€ because what a disappointment otherwise!
In happier notes, I went back to my childhood and read two Famous Five books that were around in my family's house, in their original Spanish translations. Questionable translation decisions aside (how have the times changed!), I did enjoy this little trip down nostalgia lane, which, to be entirely honest, was partly forced by my E-reader dying after seven faithful years of service... RIP.
But not all was dire, because I bought a new E-reader (an Inkbook Calypso Plus, if anyone was curious) and used it for the first time to read Olivie Blake's five romantic novellas/short story collection, which was an absolute delight. Some novellas I enjoyed more than others, but overall it was honestly really fun. While I was Olivie-ing, I also gave graphic novel Clara and the Devil (available in Webtoon, drawings by Little Chmura) a read. It was short but a bit generally unsatisfying.
And this was mostly it! On top of the Forgotten YA Gems book club over in Goodreads (wonderfully managed by Carrie), I also joined a book club in Spanish called La vuelta al mundo en 80 libros. It's managed by my good friend Cris, so if you can read in Spanish and are interested in diversifying your readings by country, do give it a try! (To be entirely honest, I haven't read anything related to any of those book clubs in 2023 yet. But hopefully soon I'll get the chance!)
How has your reading in 2023 been? Any highlights? Talk to me, since I'm barely on here and don't know what everyone is doing!
