Nice to meet you! I haven't heard of My Fair Lady but it definitely seems up my alley! I'll listen to the soundtrack as soon as possible!

Nice to meet you too! And aren't we all crazy ;P

Hi Guppy!

Nice meeting you and yesss it's so nice to see more INTP's around here. I'm an ambivert but I'm more lenient towards my ENTP side than INTP side haha.

Les Mis also is one of my favourite musicals it's definitely up there with Phantom of the Opera. I can fangirl all day if I wanted to about it but Eponine is definitely my favourite character. Just the fact that she loved someone but never had the heart to tell him because he loved someone else just wrecks me every time. It's just something about unrequited love that just makes me ugly cry. Heck, even the song On My Own is a tear jerker.

Puns are my existence too. One time I spammed my social media stories with them and I don't think too many people were impressed by my EGGcellent puns XD.

As for books, you have so many that I know and loved. Mainly the Folk of the Air series which was so twisty, dark and awesome in every sense of the word. Cassandra Clare and Sarah J Maas are YA classics and I loved their work a lot too :)

I'm excited to talk more about books (and the awesomeness of Les Mis) with you :)

I think we all have an anime addiction. Not gonna lie I played Given on spotify at least a zillion times. Fuyunohanashi is a bop XD. I need to get on top of anime movies but I'm catching up on 2020 releases! My main focus is on binge watching the whole of Attack on Titan season 4 as soon as it comes out!

If you are looking to expand your YA knowledge you have come to the right place! You have some classics in that list there like Dracula and The Book Thief (a new classic if I say so myself ;) Zitong and I try choosing books from different genres every month as the BOTM so you'll definitely see horror, mystery and historical fiction sometime soon hopefully :)

riv_reads wrote: "Thank Sylvia I will enjoy this list! I’ve read several but have lots to look at. I enjoyed both the whisper duology and the illumine files (more than once and I own them!)"

Haha all good I hope you like them! I think I read the Illuminae files twice or maybe three times XD

Yessssss Yuri on Ice! That show gave me so many cravings for pork katsu it's not even funny XD. I can't wait for season 2 and for the movie, Ice Adolescence!

AND YESSS!!! You read Heartstopper! I'm so happy! We finally have another member of the Heartstopper cult hehe. And you have definitely come to the right place for queer recommendations because I HAVE A LIST! (brace yourselves)

Okay there's probably wayyyy more but I reckon this list is too long ahaha. Also Lynette Noni's Whisper duology is to die for. I got my friend hooked on it! Also the Illuminae files are epic. Illuminae actually is one of my fave books mainly due to AIDAN though ;)

YESSSSSS Dr Stone! I love Dr Stone too! I honestly learnt all my science facts from there ;)

Ahaha we love that! I'm so glad we have more Given fans! Given is my life XD. I haven't watched The Promised Neverland just yet but I heard many good things about it. At the moment I'm watching Demon Slayer and Dr Stone :)

You know me too well XD. Heartstopper is amazing and I could go on and on about why it's amazing and why you 10000000% need to read it but just know it shows off healthy relationships instead of insta-love or infatuation. I cannot recommend it enough! Another one is Given and I think I talked everyone's ear off about that one. The anime is amazing and I must get around to watching the movie (hopefully I can watch it on Crunchyroll in February!). Even the EP is amazing and not to mention the book! I really do ship Mafuyu and Uenoyama with my heart and soul and really do hope Haruki gets his happy ending with Akihiko <3

Ooh nice! I love manga too (and YA obviously). My faves have to be the Given series by Natsuki Kizu (the anime is *chefs kiss*), Your Name and Blue Flag. I wish I could read in Japanese, Japan is a beautiful country and its language equally just. I think it's really cool that you're getting out of your comfort zone by reading a book in another language. I also enjoyed some of the books you put down in your fave YA books like Neverland by Margot McGovern but a lot of the others are definitely on my TBR :)

I signed up to NetGalley. You can get a few from there too. Other than that, some authors reached out to me themselves :)
