Welcome to my crazy world!

Music Diggin’ Friday: Books Featuring Music
In the renewed Music Diggin' Friday I'm going to write about all kinds of music related stuff. Lists, new releases, concerts, and whatever shit that comes to mind.
A Flight of Broken Wings by Nupur Chowdhury
The characters were awesome, a neat and easy to digest world, and I will be looking for the next in this series because it was an enjoyable story all around.
SPFBO Interview with J. Zachary Pike
One of the goals of SPFBO is to give a chance to self-published authors to get more exposure. In the Finals I'm taking part in the competition as one of the judges in Fantasy Book Review's team. As I did with our group's authors, I decided to offer a spot to the Finalists too to be featured on my blog.
Fate Lashed by Josh Erikson
Upon reading Fate Lashed I can say that whether Josh Erikson is a talented writer is not a question anymore (if it ever was). Hero Forged was a strong debut and he was able to raise the bar with the second book. Fate Lashed has everything we loved before and then some more: action, intrigue, sarcasm, blood and death. Sprinkled with tiny bit of Star Wars, Lord of the Rings and other references for good measure. The Ethereal Earth series is something every urban fantasy lover should read.

Introducing Budapest: National Theatre and Palace of Arts
I always promise myself that once the nice weather sets in I'll go out more in the weekends to have fresh air and pretend that I socialize when in truth I never take my earphones off or look at people if I don't have to. But in the end I'm always too lazy to get out of bed, dress up, wash my hair, etc. So, to motivate myself I decided to make it about blogging - if I feel like I have to write I might be able to lift my ass. And honestly, more people should know about this city! And my culture. I invite you to join me while I discover Budapest!
A Kingdom Under Siege by Jeffrey L. Kohanek
The final book in the Wardens of Issalia series, jumps right back into the action following An Imperial Gambit, where unfortunately, not everyone will make it to the end. But don’t worry, the author isn’t cruel enough to take our favorites out of the running (depending on who your favorites were that is).

What’s to come? – April 2019
So, this is a slow week, and I was supposed to write a review, but I just can't be arsed to do it right now, so decided I'll bring back the Sneak Peek instead. It's been a while I had these monthly posts, but life was quite hectic and in the end I usually ended up with totally different reading schedules, lol. Well, I'm not going to pretend that I'll stick to this list, though I most probably will this time around.
Monthly Wrap Up: March 2019
Well, March had been a busy month both for blogging and the fantasy community. The first anniversary of RockStarlit BookAsylum came and went, presenting me with the all time highest stats for March. I'd like to thank everyone who take part in the celebration even if just with checking my posts out, or sharing and liking. I couldn't have done it without you!

The Questioning: Michael Baker
The Questioning is where everything gets upside down. As part of my blogiversary celebration, I invited 10 authors and 10 bloggers/reviewers who showed great support during my first year as a blogger. Then I pushed them waaaaay out of the comfort zones. Authors had become interrogators and Bloggers got interrogated. Rest assured, no one got hurt (much) and everyone had fun (eventually). You can find every related post on The Questioning page!

The Bird King by G. Willow Wilson
A fellow blogger was reading this book and seemed to like it. It was right up my alley with it being historical fiction, set in Granada, 1492, so I went and requested a copy on Netgalley. I don't know if I had too high hopes for this one or expected something different, but reading The Bird King I found myself having pretty mixed feelings.

Into the Labyrinth by John Bierce
This book was a real mixed bag for me, as a whole I liked it - it’s quick, very readable and fun but there were also things that maybe didn’t work as well for me, as they may for others.
