⭐️ TOP 10 READS ⭐️
I wasn't really dabbling with the book community when I picked up reading again in September 2023 but now in January 2024, I've read 32 books (not a lot but I'm picking up speed finally!) and here are my TOP 10 reads so far on my reading journey 💘📚
Starting at #10...
#10: ICEBREAKER | Hannah Grace
Tumblr media
This was one of the first books I read. It was also my first sports romance. I didn't think hockey would be it for me but WOWZA did Nate Hawkins change me. His and Stassie's relationship was a quick one that took my breath away. The spice? You wouldn't have convinced me of the fllth in this book when I picked it up. Honestly, the pages moaned when I opened them. Such a good read! Highly recommend. I'm currently reading WILDFIRE (Russ and Aurora's story) and cannot WAIT for Henry's book! He was my favorite side character 💘
RATING: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | SPICE: 🌶️🌶️🌶️
#9: SECRETLY YOURS | Tessa Bailey
Tumblr media
Secretly Yours was my introduction to Tessa Bailey who has honestly become one of my top 5 authors. I love her writing style. A third person typically isn't my cup of tea, but Tessa can change you. This was a great take on a little grumpy x mega sunshine action. Julian Vos is a sucker for his girl and secretly a little freak too. Absolutely loved this! Also, I loved the secret admirer letters back and forth. So good.
RATING: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | SPICE: 🌶️🌶️
#8: Unfortunately Yours | Tessa Bailey
Tumblr media
This is the second book after Secretly Yours. This follows Julian's sister, Natalie, and August Cates. We meet both of these people in Secretly Yours. There's nothing I love more than a marriage of convenience trope with a little splash of enemies to lovers, but knowing that the MMC has fallen in love first. August Cates? He is a WHOLE MAN. An ex-Marine who is set to keep his late best friend's vineyard dreams alive, his and Natalie's explosive relationship is a succulent read... And in the bedroom? Well, let's just say. He makes it fit. 🔥
RATING: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | SPICE: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️
#7: ADDICTED TO YOU | Krista & Becca Ritchie
Tumblr media
The first book in the Calloway Sisters series follows two very complicated people, Loren Hale and Lily Calloway. Best friends since childhood who both face terrible addictions (Loren is an alcoholic and Lily is a sex addict), they've been playing their families for years that they've been together. They do this so they can help others hide their addictions. But when everything blows up and each realizes the other does have a problem, everything goes south. This book had me in tears. It is emotionally tragic and I adore LiLo SO much. I've read Ricochet and am going to start the 3rd book either this month or in February... Also, you may just fall in love with Connor Cobalt. I said what I said 💗
RATING: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | SPICE: 🌶️🌶️🌶️
#6: FLAWLESS | Elsie Silver
Tumblr media
When in doubt, remember what Big & Rich said. Save a horse, ride a cowboy. If you wear the hat, you ride the cowboy. My first cowboy romance ever and I was hooked from the very first page. We meet Rhett Eaton, a playboy bull rider with a hatred for milk unlike no other. He needs his reputation fixed and handled. Enter Summer. The most sunshiney person you'd ever meet gives this bull rider a run for his money. And the sex? Oh wowza. It's so good.
RATING: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | SPICE: 🌶️🌶️🌶️
#5: A COURT OF THORNS & ROSES | SJM
Tumblr media
My introduction to ACOTAR started off strong. I adored Tamlin (if you know, you know) we follow Feyre Archeron and her journey. I can't say much except you need to read this. It is one of the best series I've ever read, which is why my next 4 are ACOTAR too.
RATING: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | SPICE: 🌶️
#4: A COURT OF MIST & FURY | SJM
Tumblr media
ahhhhhhHHHHHH. I CRIED LIKE A BABY. RHYS?? Rhys is my husband. I can't help it.
RATING: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | SPICE: 🌶️🌶️🌶️
#3: A COURT OF WINGS & RUIN | SJM
Tumblr media
I cried even harder reading this one. Again, I can't spoil it.
RATING: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | SPICE: 🌶️🌶️🌶️
#2: A COURT OF SILVER FLAMES | SJM
Tumblr media
This is by far my FAVORITE. I am a Nesta girly. Deep down, out of all the Archeron sisters, I relate to Nesta the most. And Cassian is my favorite bat boy... Gah lay. I cannot wait for Azriel's book.
RATING: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | SPICE: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️
#1: HAUNTING ADELINE | H.D. CARLTON
Tumblr media
My number one book... Is Haunting Adeline. I don't want to hear any negativity. This book changed me. I've got so many book boyfriends, but Zade Meadows beats them all. He is unstoppable. This book had me screaming at the top of my lungs and had me fighting for air. Zade had me questioning everything about myself. He is the dark boyfriend for me. I have Hunting Adeline and desperately want to read, but was trying to get through some of my TBR. I started it and cried by the third chapter so I had to put it down because I just KNOW Hunting will wreck me.
RATING: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | SPICE: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️

Yesterday was absolutely amazing. We left pretty early in the day, but just late enough that we avoided the worst of Oklahoma City's morning rush traffic to get to the Oddities & Curiosities Expo. It was even fairly easy to find parking- though we did have to park a bit aways, around the block, at a different (paid) parking garage unassociated with that expo center. It still wasn't too far of a walk, though, all things considered.
There were so many vendors inside, it was ridiculous; I'm used to working smaller conventions and expos like Tokyo in Tulsa, or Underground Monster Carnival when I was with the Witch Hunter. I think this is the largest one I've been to? I didn't feel overly crowded, however- though there were a couple booths and areas that were poorly set up, which created unnecessary bottlenecks. I also had to save my old Covenmate a few times when it got too crowded in areas. But overall I did surprisingly well ... I handled it a lot better than I did the Bluegrass Festival back in September.
To be fair, though, that was a whole week of hyperstimulation and we were camped right next to a stage that played music damned near 24 / 7. So I think anything would've been better than that no matter how much fun I actually had.
We got to watch Cydeshow Cy perform, which was really neat; I've seen a few sideshow performances- one of which always did Underground Monster Carnival, whom I was friends with for a bit. Sword Swallowing's pretty common in them. But he did a couple tricks I'd never seen before, and his stage presence and jokes were pretty great. It made it a unique performance that I really enjoyed.
I was originally only going to take $100 with me to the Expo, but we wound up overpaying on rent this month thinking we owed more back pay that we actually did. So my Husband suggested I take the extra $100 with me as well. Which meant I came home with quite a few goodies:
⭲ A gorgeous pair of Femur Earrings with Copper Tape detailing, plus two bundles of Incense ('Garden of Eden' and 'Altar') from the Black.Moth booth located out of Tulsa, Oklahoma
⭲ A lovely stick shaped Wooden Spoon with a carved leaf from The Village Witch booth, out of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
⭲ A Nazar talisman / amulet to hang up, from a booth whose card I seem to have lost sadly
⭲ A set of wooden Witch's Runes (plus a printed reference guide) from the Prism Moon booth, located on the Missouri side of Kansas City
⭲ Two prints from the Grave Markings booth (the 'Two Headed Snake' + 'Skull Burst' prints); no idea where they're located out of
⭲ And obviously a T-Shirt from the Expo itself
I didn't spend all $200, but I came pretty close to it; I think I left the expo with like $40 left in total; I had plans to come home and immediately snag a two-headed cat necklace that I'd seen at Stephan Webb's booth (Albuquerque, New Mexico)- and I do still want it really bad, along with an amazing snake necklace he had ... But they'll unfortunately have to wait a little longer since this morning I signed up for the Reclaiming Your Slavic Heritage and Magic class collaboration between Sea Grape Apothecary and Vlasta Pilot of Gentle Hearts Unite.
Unlike the Jewish Magic and Healing Arts classes I want to take, I don't know when the class will be offered again. So while I can save for those over time, I should probably jump on this one while I have the chance; same with the Ukrainian Seasonal Magic classes they'll be hosting over the course of the year as well- which I also really want to take but need to save for now, too, because it's $130 for the bundle currently; it looks more like $200+ originally, so I have no idea how long that'll last and the Winter class starts in January. Ahhhhhhhhhhhh.
Anyways: Before we left Oklahoma City, we also stopped by the Eastern European Grocery Store that I found last month through this Tik Tok. It was such a cute little store, and the woman who owns it seemed really nice (and very confused about who filmed the Tik Tok, ha). I spent another near $100 easily picking out a few safer things to try since I couldn't get the visual translation app to work and most everything was packaged without dual translation.
⭲ Polish Brine Pickled flavored with Dill and Horseradish
⭲ 3 Packages of frozen Piroschki (Apple, Sour Cherry, and Potato)
⭲ A box of Green Tea with Cardamom,
⭲ A loaf of Ukrainian Rye Bread
⭲ A jar of Linden Honey
⭲ Two other things of Tea I actually can't read (one's ingredients are "Fermented Willow-Herb and Thyme" and the other is "Fermented Willow-Herb and Sea Buckthorn Berries")
⭲ A bottle of non-alcoholic Kvas Soda
Today I'm not in nearly as much pan as I thought I'd be. But I've definitely drowned myself in a pound of Pine Oil and Tylenol Arthritis Strength 🤣😭 My legs are killing me the worst. But I didn't push flair like I expected myself to! So progress, huzzah!

AHHHHHHHHHHHH! My new fav couple and their cutie bratty kitty is back with Valentine’s Decisions 😆🥳😁 I love how Yoongi is so excited and loves celebrating holidays to that degree 😍 His personal wittle Valentine’s basket for Spider is just so adorable 🥰 I also find it hilarious how I am so alike with MC. I also am not really the celebrating type of person. I hate crowds and don’t want to put myself to that kind of torture during holidays. I would rather celebrate it privately with loved ones or in this case, with just your partner. Yoongi going all out is just so adorable and i love how much effort he puts in to celebrate it with just his two loves 🥹 Love this, I just can’t get enough of this two and their baby ☺️
Also, Yoongi surprising us with the announcement of his concert? HOW DARE HE!?!??!? No one saw that coming 😱 As much as I love it, I am sad that I can’t watch him personally since he isn’t coming to my country. I’ll probably be lurking and waiting if someone is going to video the concerts livestream, like always 😅 but I am still happy that he gets to have his first concert tour, so proud of him 🥹
Yes I definitely wanted to write it different but when I started I was so tired my mind went blank and all the funny stuff I daydreamed about at work disappeared 🥲
Yoongi is super into holidays lol I can picture him getting bunny ears for Spider when Easter rolls around 🤣 but yes oc hates crowds (me too) my husband asked if I wanted to go out to eat for Valentine’s Day and I was like 😬 no. I hate it Lmao we tried once and it’s just too much and I hate people bumping into me or standing too close 😅
I had thought of Jimin coming over but it didn’t fit well in the drabble. Maybe he goes over the next day to drop of treats for Spider 🤣
Yes I wasn’t expecting it! I was in the car when the live started and then I got the notification about his tour and ahhhh I will be trying to get tickets so but I’m still in shock Lmao I will be leaving my husband home again while I go see my other husband 🤣 he’s a good sport lmao he says “go with your friends and I’ll stay home with the cat” he’s not a huge bts fan so I get it 🤣 I don’t think any of the US concerts are near me so I will have to travel but I don’t expect them showing up in Tennessee 🤣 though I did meet some army at the airport for ptd la and I was surprised at how many of us there were. We must just live very far apart in the state. Unfortunately when they have movies and such, it’s never near me. It’s usually 1.5 to 2/3 hours away and it’s usually on days I work 🥲 but I hope you do get to see them someday! I will also be looking for livestreams just in case 👀👀👀👀

BONNE ANNIVERSAIRE!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! Fuck, dude, I hope your birthday has been, and continues to be, the absolute best, and I know in the deepest depths of my heart that somewhere out there there's a Jack and there's a Davey and they're feeling a totally random burst of unmitigated joy and they're thinking 'what the fuck' because what the fuck but also it's joy, c'mon, who doesn't love it? But they're confused because their day has been a relatively normal one, and yet.... Because they're living life, utterly (and unfortunately) blind to the fact that someone out there, there is a truly wonderful writer cooking up some truly wonderful stories of them. Subconsciously, they know to celebrate, because you really really deserve it. So happy birthday from me and Jack and Davey and all the other little hoodlums!!!!! :]
AHHHHHHHHHHHH THANK YOU SO MUCH FRIEND!!! Today was genuinely so awesome, thanks in part by all the wonderful messages and compliments. I’m just soooo ☺️💗🥰🥺🤗💗
Thank you for the well wishes and all the help recently!! You’re a gem ✨

I finally read peppermint hobi and I love him 🥺 I'd put off reading it and I remember seeing all the comments about him and I finally read it last night and he STOLE my heart! I love how their relationship wasnt just a straight line of co-workers to lovers and how you kinda flipped fanfic on its head and made him the shy one who needs to be approached and loved. It just got me how she was the first one in the whole office to really try with him to make him ultra comfortable and not left out. 😭 And how she turned a little selfish after he rejected he? I felt that, unfortunately that has been me but I loved how they moved past and got a happy ending. Drunk hobi too and his confessions ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!! I'm so soft for them!!!!!! I want peppermint hobi cuddles (pt.1)
(Pt.2) Your just so good at writing!!! I'm jimin biased too although I love all, and the way you make me fall in love with these characters is crazy - you're so good with too much power!! Also wanna pass on love to jungle park cause that's another one I read lately. I stayed up all night reading it in one go and ahhhh when it was found that he was engaged to OC and then just broke up with her...i felt so sad for her cause it would have been so hard working for him but having to keep so much distance. I did grow to love him as a character though, with his being the opposite of peppermint hobi and being feared but that making him ostracized similarly. The OC putting him in his place made me very happy tho like go get him!! I love your writing so much!Flower was also incredible and it really helped me and made me cry. It was so beautiful and perfect!! With your writing you can make me feel anything, and the hades jimin one is one I come back to sooo often because it takes me on a whole rollercoaster of laughter, pity, love and sorrow. I really loved the little bit you had of him in Hobis greek god part as well where he faces the fact that the OC will die. I cried ugly tears, it should be a whole tv series. I just wanted to post some appreciation cause I can be a bit bad with leaving feedback but you are always innovative and a pleasure to read, and a hundred percent one of my favourites. Thank you so much for writing 💜
I would like to apologise because just after sending that I realised that jungle park is a jimlings fic...ahhhhhhhh I am so sorry! It doesnt take away from the fact that I do adore you as a writer tho, I'm just silly and get fics mixed up in my head. I'm so sorry please ignore that part and I hope I didnt offend u it was a genuine mix up in my head...
Haha, it’s okay...Jungle Park is a fantastic Hobi fic and I fully recommend it! @jimlingss, some feedback for you :D
In regards to my fics...thank you for your love and for reading them! I’m glad that you’ve enjoyed so many of them and that they’ve stuck with you like this :) people enjoying my fics is really what keeps me coming back to tumble as it means a lot!

The Girlish Rise of Madame Margaret
After getting picked on by her brothers one too many times, Margie decides to turn them into girls and, in the process, paves the way for the rise of Madame Margaret.
Here's something from a show that I liked growing up as a kid and I'm anyone who both likes gender bending and this show would probably remember the episode Operation F.U.T.U.R.E where the inspiration for this came from.
If you have any constructive criticism and feedback, please comment down below.
---
Once upon a time there was a girl named Margie. She was a girl who loved being girly and doing all the stuff that entailed; playing with Rainbow Monkeys, tea parties, dress up and lots of other girly stuff that most girls her age are prone to do.
But she had three brothers who were not so keen on her feminine side, nor keen on girls in general. Ben, Penn, and Andy all loved to pick on their sister. They liked to pull her hair, throw mud on her lovely dresses and all the things immature little boys love to do to their sisters. Margie hated it, but whenever she tells it her father shrugs it off as “boys being boys”.
At least until one day where Margie had an idea. An awfully evil idea. A way to make her brothers into good little girls; the kind who would rather spend their time playing with dolls and wearing pretty dresses than even entertaining the thought of playing sports.
Through a surprising amount of mechanical talent, an understanding of mental changes and tons of hard work, Margie invented the Girlifying Rifle. It was a beautiful device to her. A weapon of pure femininity. A weapon that can turn even the crudest and rudest of boys into the sweetest and girliest little girls.
Of course, Margie knew she needed to actually test the device first. She did not want the device’s effect to be temporary or be the exact opposite of what she intended. In order to do that, she needed a test subject. Luckily for her, her little brother, Ben, was more than capable of filling the role.
He was lazy and slept often. It wasn’t hard for Margie to tie him to a chair without waking him up. She was glad she got those rope tying skills from Girl Scouts. Now all she has to do is to wake Ben up and she can begin the testing.
---
“Ben. Wakey wakey.”
The brother opened his eyes. He looked down to find his arms tightly tied behind a chair. He struggled, but his bonds wouldn't budge.
“Margie! Let me go!”
“I don’t think so,” Margie giggled evilly. “In fact, I think I’ll keep you here until I’m done with you.”
“What are you going to do? Make me wear one of your stupid dresses?”
“You’re close, but no dice. I should show you what I have in store for you.”
Margie gleefully pulled out the Girlifying Rifle, allowing Ben to stare in confusion at the pink weapon before him.
“What is that thing?”
“This,” Margie tapped the weapon in her hand. “Is the Girlifiying Rifle. Guess what it does?”
“Wait…” It didn’t take long for Ben to put two and two together. “You don’t mean it will-”
“Yes, Ben,” Margie giggled. “This will make you into a good little girl. A girl who would gladly choose to play with her Rainbow Monkeys over playing that stupid baseball sport.”
“Nooooo!”
“Oh, yes!” Margie pointed the feminizing rifle at her brother. The thought of finally turning the tables on her brothers made her giggle inwardly. “Goodbye, Ben. Hello, Brenda!”
With a press of the trigger, Margie fired the Girlifying Rifle. The bright pink ray from the feminizing weapon hit Ben, engulfing him in a bright light.
When the light disappeared, Margie couldn’t help but feel a bit proud of her handiwork. Ben’s dirty shirt and pants were completely gone and in its place was a much cuter outfit: black Mary Janes, soft white tights, a full blue dress with a frilly pinafore and a white sun hat to complete the ensemble. It was an outfit that any little girly girl would love to wear.
Unfortunately, there was one major problem with the transformation.
“Hey! Get me out of this stupid dress! Where are my pants?”
While his outfit was changed, Ben was the same rude boy who helped his brothers pick on Margie.
Margie turned to her Girlifying Rifle. How could she have girlified Ben’s outfit, but not the boy himself? She must’ve forgotten to adjust the settings for biological matter.
“Hey, Margie! I can’t be seen like this! My friends will laugh at me!”
Ben’s protests were ignored as Margie modified the Girlifying Rifle. A mix up on the wires caused the feminizing weapon to ignore the biological components on its target. But it wasn’t anything that Margie couldn’t fix.
“Let’s try this again.”
Margie blasted Ben with the Girlifiying Rifle again. This time the feminization affected his body as well, instantly turning him into a girl. His features were softer, his hair grew past his shoulders, his muscles dwindled, his voice raised to a high, girlish pitch. By the time the pink flowery light faded away, his body looked every bit the sweet little girl Margie wanted him to be.
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhh! What have you done to me!”
Margie’s eyes widened in shock. A second time that the Girlifying Rifle didn’t work the way she intended. Ben looked and dressed like Brenda but he was still the same bratty brother in mentality.
“Did the Mental Girlifier not register during the process? I had to check and see.”
“You stupid girl! Change me back now!”
Margie tried to ignore her now boyish sister as she worked on the Girlifying Rifle. After some brief examination, she found out that the Mental Girlifier was not connected to the rest of the machine. She wondered how she could’ve missed something so obvious during the building stage. At least she found such a fatal flaw during testing and not on a battlefield of some kind.
“Get me back to normal now now now now!”
Margie turned back to Ben with a dark glare. She can feel his whining getting on her last nerve.
“Listen to me you-”
“No, you listen!” Margie yelled. “I’m tired of boys like you always picking on me and bossing me around! From now on, you and your brothers will all be sweet little girls! Now then…”
Margie gleefully pointed the girlish weapon at her brother and fired it upon him a third time. This time, Ben could feel the ray’s powers flowing through his brain. His mind was being drowned in girlish thoughts.
“I feel… I f-feel…”
It was then a tidal wave of femininity came crashing down on his mind. Every masculine barrier was torn down, every single shred of his former self was smothered by the girlish thoughts plaguing his mind. She was now every bit the sweet little sister Margie wanted her to be, both on the inside and the outside.
“I feel so pretty!”
“Excellent,” Margie laughed as she untied her new sister. “What do you think of your new look, Brenda?”
“I love it. So much better than when I was an icky boy.”
Margie couldn’t stop giggling. Aside from a few mishaps, the Girlifying Rifle worked perfectly. The mental feminization could have gone a bit faster, but it was nothing that she couldn’t fix later.
“Perhaps we can make our brothers into sisters?” Margie suggested.
“That sounds wonderful,” Brenda squealed.
“I know,” Margie said. “That’s why I did it to you. When they get home, they’ll be in for quite a surprise.”
“Can we play tea party afterwards?”
“Definitely.”
---
“More tea, Penelope?”
“I would love that, Brenda,” Penelope giggled. She smoothed the skirt of her red polka-dotted dress as she pantomimed drinking tea. Pearls adorned her neck as her puffy sleeves ruffled during the event. Her feet were clad in frilly anklets and red Mary Janes. “Would you like some crumpets, Ariana?”
“Definitely,” Ariana gave off an image of pure innocence as she pretended to eat crumpets. Her full white dress was longer, reaching all the way to her feet. Made of soft silk, it held beautiful flower embroidery and a high, lacy collar that climbed up her neck. The sleeves were puffy as was an adorned sash, its prominent larger bow decorated his collective display
of lace and little pearls. White Mary Janes adorned her little feet, complemented by matching tights. Dainty ears offered a clear view of her flower shaped earrings with little pearls at the center.
Margie looked at her new sisters with pride. Less than a few hours ago, they were boys who wouldn’t hesitate to push her into a mud puddle if they could get some enjoyment from ruining her clothes. Now, the very thought would never even cross their minds. In fact...
“Hey girls! Aren’t you supposed to go to some soccer event this afternoon?”
The trio turned to Margie with disgusted looks on their faces.
“No, sports are gross.”
“I can’t let the dirt ruin my pretty dress.”
“You can’t let us hang out with boys! They have cooties!”
Margie grinned evilly. Not only had she had the minds of her three brothers completely feminized, she also had them completely disgusted at the thought of resuming their old habits and hobbies.
“I’m just joking, girls. How about the three of you play dress-up?”
“We would love to!” Brenda, Penelope and Ariana squealed in unison.
“Great. Just need to make sure your clothes are ready. I’ll be right back.”
Margie approached her brothers’ room with the Girlifying Rifle in tow. She wasted no time blasting everything in the room with the weapon: shirts and pants became skirts and dresses, action figures became Rainbow Monkeys and various other forms of dolls and stuffed animals, posters of action heroes and monsters became posters of ballerinas and princesses. Not a single trace of masculinity was spared from Margie’s wrath.
The last target was a trunk full of costumes whenever her brothers wanted to pretend to be superheroes. Ratman or something. A simple use of the Girlfiying Rifle turned those costumes into costumes more suited for little girls. Costumes of princess and fairies and many other girly figures filled the trunk.
“There. Perfect.”
As she was about to leave her new sisters’ room, Margie heard a voice.
“Well done, Margie.”
The girl turned at the sound of the voice. It was a hologram of an old woman not much taller than her. She was wearing a dark red dress and a pink cape that went up in a way that reminded her of those villains from those comic books her brothers read. But there was something about that old woman that looked familiar. Something that she can’t quite put her finger on.
“W-who are you?”
“I’m Madame Margaret,” the hologram answered. “Or if you want me to go into a little more detail, I’m you.”
“You’re me?”
“Yes. I am contacting you from seventy-five years in the future because I want to help you create a boy-free world.
“That does sound appealing.”
“It is,” Madame Margaret said. “After all, compare your old brothers to your new sisters and I doubt there’s any contest on who is better. Let me help you, and together, we can create a better world.”
Margie knew the right answer was obvious. The prospect was too tempting for her to refuse such an idea.
“I’m in.”
“Wonderful.”
It was then a piece of paper manifested into the room. Margie picked it up and began reading over it.
“That’s only phase one of the master plan,” Madame Margaret said. “Now before we proceed further, your father will be home any minute now. You know what to do.”
The hologram faded, leaving only the projector. A quick analysis indicated that Margie can contact her future self anytime she wants. More or less. Margie could feel the complicated nature of time travel giving her a headache. She can worry about it later.
“In the meantime,” Margie picked up the Girlifying Rifle. “Goodbye Daddy, hello Mommy.”
---
“Let’s see. How can I fix this?”
Margie continued to modify the Girlifying Rifle. She knew that, while the girlifying effect on the target can go pretty fast, she was slightly concerned about it not being instantaneous.
“Maybe if I speed up the time function? No, no. I should probably amplify the girliness factor. That should make the transformation instantaneous.”
“Hello, Margie, I brought you lunch.”
Margie’s new mother minced into the room. Her father was the first time she tested the ray on an adult and the results were glamorous. She looked like a housewife straight out of the 1950s with her red full-skirted dress: her hair was immaculately coiffed and her face was tastefully made up. Her feet were in three-inch red high heels and her delicately manicured hands carried a tray of cookies and cupcakes.
“Thanks, Mom. It’s time for my lunch break”
Margie took the tray and gave her mom a kiss on the cheek. As she ate the cookies, her feminized parent’s eyes glazed over the paper placed right by the Girlifying Rifle.”
“What’s this?”
“Just something my future self gave me.” Margie took a bit out of her cupcake. “It’s blueprints for an academy designed to help me get rid of those pesky boys.”
“That sounds delightful! Sounds like the recipe for a perfect world. What’s it called?”
“St. Rita's Preparatory School and it’s only the beginning. Soon, we’ll have a boy-free world and I’ll rule over it.”
“I agree with that, Margie. Our family was an awful mess before you turned us all into girls. This world would be so much nicer when you're done with it.”
“Please, Mom, call me… Madame Margaret.”

My WINGS Tour Experience (Hong Kong 14052017)
After remaking I’m posting this again to have this somewhere safe in my blog lol
I was wondering whether I should write something down about my experience from this Sunday. As some of you know, I went to BTS’s concert in Hong Kong this Sunday (14th May) and even though I don’t know whether any of my followers are interested to hear about my thoughts of the experience, I thought I would write this anyway so that I would have some written memories left in a few months after this date.
I booked the tickets through my friend back in March during the pre-sale, so unfortunately I can’t help you much if you happen to have questions about them. I got a B2 standing zone ticket (the last one they had on pre-sale apparently!!) and it was 1705HKD in total, so not too bad considering the concert was 2,5 hours in total. Asia-World Expo in general is actually not that big arena, I was actually surprised how small the Hall 1 was! The standing area was not full at all even though the concert was sold out, so there was a lot of room to move around!
Okay, back to the day of the concert. As I wanted to buy some merch, I went to the arena at 10am in the morning thinking there wouldn’t be much people. Turns out, of course there were a lot of people. I ended up lining up for about two hours to get my t-shirt (which luckily didn’t sell out omg i was so worried!!) and I even had a really nice American army with me as my company and we got to talk a lot during those hours haha. All the people I met were super nice and friendly even though not everyone spoke English, but I appreciated it anyway! There were people handing out things (as always i guess) and one girl in the line to the security check asked which member was my bias (I reluctantly responded Tae, but I was so conflicted HOW CAN I CHOOSE OK) and she handed me this cute bag with tae’s picture on it omg (I get excited about the smallest things ok?).
After getting my merch I returned back to my hotel and only returned to the arena just before 4pm. Turns out, they opened the doors from the holding area at 4pm and I just lost my queueing place by being late (like 15 mins)… But it wasn’t too bad, as I said, there was a lot of space and I was actually in the second row at the back (like really close to one part of the stage!) I’ve never been in a concert where my ticket has been checked so many times but lol maybe that’s just me.
Personally I think the first part of the concert was musically the best (Not Today, Baepsae, Am I Wrong(?) ahhh I don’t remember to be honest), or perhaps I was just the most hyped during those few minutes because they were the first minutes after seeing BTS for the first time. The moment the fabric covering the stage dropped and the first notes of Not Today started blasting around the arena were magical! It’s just my personal opinion, but some songs clearly worked better live than others. Cypher 4, Not Today, Baepsae, First Love, Awake, Reflection, Wings, 2,3 and Spring Day were my favourites, while I didn’t really feel that much during 21st century girls (even though I love the song!). I gotta give it to the boys tho, they had so much energy throughout the concert that even I was exhausted (and I didn’t even do anything but sing along and dance and scream ehe). They looked semi tired though, but that is given considering how busy they’ve been in the past few weeks and months. I hope after this tour they get at least some time to rest!
During the first part they also introduced themselves and it was even more amazing and cute than i expected! Suga’s *i-pretend-i-didn’t-hear-you* is hilarious and Hobi’s I’M YOUR HOPE IS THE CUTEST THING I’VE EVER HEARD.
After the first part they did together, Jungkook appeared on stage alone with some dancers to do Begin. LET ME TELL YOU I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT DANCING BUT HE IS AMAZING AND I LOVED IT AHHHHHHHHHHHH DID I REALLY HEAR THAT SONG LIVE OMG YES.
Next was Jimin’s Lie, and tbh my mind blanks when I think about that stage. He is gorgeous and omg the part where he dances with his eyes blindfolded AND THE PART WHERE THEY LIFT HIM ahhhhhhhhh. And his vocals were amazing, I really loved the high notes!!!
Suga’s First Love was simply beautiful. Unlike other songs before, the audience actually quieted down and mostly just listened to Yoongi’s rap and only shouted a few words along him. When the song ended(?) the audience started repeatedly shouting Yoongi’s name (Min Yoongi, Min Yoongi, Ming Yoongi - I felt like crying tbh it felt magical how taken the whole arena was by him)
Next was the vocal line’s Lost, and it was also the first song that was performed semi close to me (on the middle stage). The song is not my favourite, but I still loved it (well I loved the whole concert so is there really need for me to stay this over and over again lolololol). Then the rap line appeared for Save ME and OMG YES PLEASE SAVE ME. Was Dope next? I just remember Jungkook doing something but idk. And INU came as well (the audience exploded ok but that was expected INU IS THAT GOOD)
Out of the solo songs Reflection was actually one of the best live - it’s not my favourite from the album, but it really works live. I could feel the emotions in Namjoon’s voice and when the audience started chanting “We Love You” towards the end of the songs I got chills all around my body I swear.
For some reason I don’t remember much of Stigma??? BUT V BBY I LOVE YOU AND THE HIGH NOTES AT THE END OMFG B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L!!! There was supposed to be a fan project for V’s song but for some reason I didn’t see people holding up the sign? :///
Then MAMA! It works really well live and it’s such a fun song to sing along! It was mother’s day, so it felt even more special that day. AND THE END WHEN HOBI SMILES AND THANKS HIS MOM AND THE AUDIENCE SINGS ALONG AND OMFG
Awake was amazing! Jin’s vocals were on point that night, and he is one of the members who really stood out that night. The long high note really hit me personally and ahhhhhhhhhhh I loved it so much! There was also supposed to be a project for Jin’s song as well but idk what happened to it???
THEN CYPHER 4 OMG I DON’T THINK I’VE EVER BEEN THAT HYPED ABOUT ANYTHING THAT SONG WAS GREATER THAN GREAT AND DON’T LET ME GET STARTED ABOUT HOW GOOD THEY LOOKED AND SOUNDED AND OH HOW AM I ALIVE
I think Fire came after that? Maybe? 3:33 was as impactful as I thought it would be! I think Jimin fell right after that though, and I was so worried for a few moments but he seemed to be okay afterwards. Jimin seemed probably the most tired that night tho, or maybe I just imagined it but I really hope he’s getting a lot of rest!!!!
During N.O I lost it because that was the first time BTS walked right by me I WAS LIKE 3 METERS AWAY I COULD SEE SWEAT ON THEIR FOREHEADS I AM STILL NOT OKAY LIKE HOW DO THEY LOOK SO PERFECT IRL IT SHOULD NOT BE POSSIBLE. Like I knew they are good-looking but guys, it really isn’t photoshop you’re seeing YOU’RE SEEING BASICALLY PERFECTION omfg. Suga, Jungkook and Namjoon walked right past me (Suga was so cool?? That’s what I remember thinking… JK did a cute little spin and NAMJOON DID A BODY ROLL AND I THINK I DIED I WAS NOT READY FOR THAT RUDENESS RIGHT IN FRONT OF MY EYES AND I STILL CANNOT UNSEE IT NAMJOON WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY can you see how struck i was by rapmon)
Because they were so close for the rest of the concert I think my judgement of anything musical was just gone, but oh well. During No More Dream and Danger rest of the members came by my area too (first V, then Jimin, then maybe Jin and Hobi ahhhhhh i don’t remember??). Jimin was so cool as well omg!
My mind kinda blanks after that, but Boy in Luv, Run and 21st century girls happened. I remember screaming a lot. Yeah.
BOY MEETS EVIL IS IMPORTANT wow Hobi is not from this world. He was far away but the song just makes you so hyped and his dancing is out of this worldddddd. It’s kinda sad they cut the song just before the chorus thing at the end lmao the audience started to sing it and then it cut :((( Before they disappeared for a while they did BS&T, and I just remember V’s parts tbh but it was great ok it was great.
They obviously had some small speeches in between, but they were mostly in Cantonese-ish (sometimes Korean), so I cannot tell you much about what they were about. But it didn’t take away from the experience tbh! Suga’s face at one point was hilarious (I think he forgot how to pronounce his line?? I was thinking “same yg, same lmao). And Jin’s hanger heart was so extra but cute hahahaha.
Then came a short VCR in Chinese so too bad, I still don’t know what i was actually about SO ANY OF YOU WHO KNOW PLEASE TELL ME I WAS SO CONFUSED AND LOST hahhahaha
Photography and videos were actually not allowed in the arena and there were people stopping audience from filming but i think they kinda gave up in the end?? Because everyone basically had their phones up (I might have done that as well for a few seconds tbh, but I really tried to focus on the concert and not touch my phone for the most of it).
After some time Bangtan appeared back on stage to do Outro:Wings (and we did the BTS HK fan union fan project, slogan saying “Together let’s fly even higher” in Korean. Afterwards NJ told us they saw the signs and thanked us (and told us what it means in English haha. I also held the sign upside down for like the first 20 seconds because they were walking towards me and I panicked ok). During that song they came to my part again, and wow they were suddenly so energetic?? I’M PROUD TO SAY I’VE SEEN JIN’S HAND KISSES LIVE AND THEY ARE CHEESY BUT GREAT ahahaha. I remember looking at JK’s earrings and thinking that they looked cool (now that i think about it afterwards why on earth did i spend time looking at his earrings lmao). V came by as well and did his adorable flower pose right in front of me ;__; I’m not ok. Suga just walked coolly by us again ahahaha he didn’t really waste time posing much lol ‘S OK I STAN THE RIGHT MAN GOSH I ADORE HIM. Hobi flew by us as well (like literally flew with his hands on his sides OMFG HOW IS HE SO EXTRA AND CUTE). Towards the end they returned back to the middle to do Hobi’s rap (Tae looks at Hobi so lovingly when he does his part???? wow he is a fan)
Then Namjoon thanked us and told us our time was approaching the end so they would do two more songs. 2,3 started playing and I legit started crying (ehe). As it was May 14th (Rose Valentines day?) we did a pink ocean for Bangtan - it was really pretty!
Last song was Spring Day and did I cry? Yes. The song is very meaningful and personal to me, and only then I realized Bangtan would be leaving soon and wow it was depressing but beautiful. Afterwards they walked to the end and bowed and thanked us a few more times and then returned back to the front AND WOW THE POSES THEY DID I MEAN YOU’VE SEEN JIN&JK&YG etc videos going around wow they are beautiful and cute and precious I love them so much.
Oh wow this is way too long, messy and probably not even good but I wanted to write something in order to have something to read when I really want to remember things. The night was amazing, even though I didn’t eat the whole day and almost fainted at some point and apparently screwed up my knee (it’s 2 days later and I still can’t walk properly LOL) and the flight tickets cost a lot but IT WAS DEFINITELY 100% WORTH IT. If you ever have a chance to see Bangtan, I recommend it, it’s worth it.
So yeah, this Sunday happened. It was beautiful. I love them so much. I basically owe them my life, my happiness and I’m so grateful. I wish them great things in life and I hope some day I’ll have a chance to see them again ♥

Responses to {Part 29} I Won’t Stop You // Jeon Jungkook, Vampire!AU Asks~
Please ‘Keep Reading’ to find my response to your ask ^^ As always, I have copied and pasted all asks into this post in regards to last night’s chapter to avoid clogging up people’s dashboards and to avoid spoilers for those who may still wish to read the chapter. Thank you ^^
(I have also included asks that I received before this IWSY chapter was posted ^^)
@jungshaking said: I was so hyped during work yesterday. I thought "oh yes a new chapter tonight" MULTIPLE times, but I had to remind myself each time that it was Monday 😩😭 (cont.) tbh I'm so scared that the upcoming IWSY chapter will be the last now that Yoongi is gone
Haha you poor thing! It’s coming soon so no need to wait any longer! And don’t worry, it’s not the last chapter ^^ :3

I hope it will spare your heart! And don’t worry my love I’m sure you will do amazingly in your exams ^^ I really hope you will think the chapter is great, I tried very hard :)
@clara-licht said: So in the end, I didn't get the univ invitation and I also didn't get the Wings Tour ticket even after waiting in the venue for hours, so I felt really shitty even until now. (I still can't listen to 2!3! or I'll break down in tears) But still, I look forward to Wednesdays because IWSY can always get my mind off these problems even if only for a while. How many more chapters do you reckon it will be? I, for one, don't want it to end but all good things will come to an end after all :')
Awh babe I’m so so sorry to hear that :/ that really sucks but don’t worry, BTS will definitely be coming back to where you live in the future and you can have another chance to see them okay? Same with the University, are you able to apply for another one? Did you get any more offers? I’m glad that IWSY can make you a little happy ^^ And I’ not 100% sure, but I suspect that next week might be the last chapter, I haven’t fully decided yet! But the final chapter will have ‘Final Chapter’ written in the title :D
@nora2bts said: Hiii! I'm sorry I don't want to be annoying or anything but I binge read "IWSU" and I reallyyyyyyy loved it a lot! I was just wondering if u were gonna post part 29 today, since I can't wait, I've been waiting for what seems an eternity! 😂😂😂 I just wanted to let u know that I really enjoyed your stories, thank you 😊 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You’re not annoying love! I do write at the top of every chapter that IWSY is posted every Tuesday evening between 9-10pm UK time and I have always stayed true to that so fear not! Thank you so much for enjoying the story my love, you’re so welcome ^^
@clara-licht said: I was listening to Spring Day when I read chapter 29 and for the first time since WT in Jakarta I can listen to the song and sing it happily instead of feeling hurt and upset, because I was so excited throughout the chapter! So thank you for that :) I can't stop smiling, gosh! I really, REALLY want to know how Jiminnie is faring. And I think I fell for Namjoon. That sweet, sweet boy 😍 Oh btw, how old are they all by now? Including Namjoon, Yoongi (had he been alive), Jin, and Hobi?
AwwwwHHHH YES! I’m glad it holds no bad memories for you now my love ^^ Thank you for reading the chapter dear :D And as for their ages, I did specify Yoongi’s was older than Taehyung in a precious chapter (I just can’t remember which chapter, sorry!) and Namjoon is University/college age so somewhere between 18-25 (I decided not to give a specific age). Unfortunately, I never specified Hoseok and Seokjin’s ages in the story but they would have been University age too :D

Anonymous said: Babe, the 29th part of IWSY was absolutely amazing ;-; but i feel that the end is nearing.. I loved IWSY so much it brought me to tears and it hurts to think that so beautiful a thing would actually be coming to an end.. Your writing skills are on fleek and the story is well woven.. Thank you so much for such an incredible experience ~ ❤😭😘
The end is definitely nearing, sadly enough :c IWSY has become a real world to me for the past almost 30 weeks of my life! lol :3 I suspect that next week will be the final chapter, but I don’t know for 100% so don’t quote me on that ;D Your words about me are beautiful and I don’t deserve them, but thank you so much my love ^^

Hahaha don’t worry it was just a little accident! Even if Jungkook were to never marry Y/N, I’m sure their relationship would still be a solid, loving and caring one ^^ for all three of them! :D thank you so much holoAnon! :D
Anonymous said: I'm so happy that Joonie is finally at peace with the notion of being a vampire, and the way Y/N told Tae about how Yoongi was happy in his own little world with Tae and their parents was so incredibly heartwarming and what made it even better was what that meant to Tae, and I just ugh. This chapter made me soft. Like Yoongi's gummy smile soft. Thank you for always writing such amazing stories.
Yes - I was excited to reveal why Namjoon was the way he was, so that everyone could understand him better. I felt that this chapter was the best time to do that as the other chapters before the ball kind of painted him in a negative light. But he always had a heart full of gold c: YOONGI’S GUMMY SMILE IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL THING EVER HE SHOULD ALWAYS SMILE LIKE THAT :D hehe~ aww thank you so much and you’re welcome for the story dear ^^

@koreaisanaddiction said: great chapter. one of my theories were correct. the one about namjoon. but the one about the baby was wrong. i realized i thought about it in the eyes of human logic not vampiric. oh well better luck next time for me i guess.
Thank you for thinking it was great! And yay! one out of two isn’t bad at all heh ^^ Don’t worry dear, I’m still really happy you enjoyed it :)
Anonymous said: Is it bad that I'm actually really completely genuinely satisfied with the ending of chapter 29 of ISWY? and that it would be completely fine if you just stopped the series right there? I dunno, but the way you wrote this chapter, it doesn't make me feel the need to question anything. Sara, you ended it perfectly and now, you're turning me from a loyal maknae-line stan to a namjoon stan. That.... not many people can do. *applauds* Anyways, I love you, take care, and keep writing! <3 - army anon
Awwwww that’s so freaking sweet I CAN’T guh ~~~ I’m legit crying at your message right now, seriously :( haha OKAY I’m good~ lol Well it looks like right now there will be one more chapter to go, but I’m not completely sure or decided yet.

Hiya love! Hmmm well it’s the same length as any other chapter really :3 Possibly because it’s just drawing to an end that one might feel like it’s shorter :(  I actually would really love to do that but I have no idea how lol :c Anyway, thank you so much for reading the new chapter my deary!! :3

Reflection
ahhhhhhhhhhhh. i forgot to bring my Bible down so now I can’t do my QT here :( i do hope i find the willpower to prepare a smoothie for tomorrow morning, do the dishes, take a shower, and do my QT before i decide to sleep. this probably isn’t a good idea working so much when i have work tomorrow but im in that productive kind of mood! and yes, it’s my fault that i started so late but it’s okay! bc im here now and i at least want to work on it a lil more. i already got some ideas i actually like rolling into my portfolio, i started drawing more thumbnails, i got my 3 typography examples done, i started drawing my didot thumbnails but ended up getting sidetracked. but i did draw a bunch of boxes for it which is good! i do want to do a few more quick sketches for typography and then focus on my research papers tomorrow along with the design for graphic design. actually, i probably wont have time tomorrow since im hanging out with my roommates and going out to dinner with james, moon-hee, and others from downtown. and i know i could just skip out on that but i do want to do it. and then on saturday we’re checking out a couple different apartments and i so badly wish i could just stay home and rest and work all day on graphic design and typography but unfortunately, i cant. im definitely going to be staying up late the next few days as a result to make for the lack of time. 
but here’s what i really want to talk about. i had a really good conversation with shar today and i was open about my depression and how i’ve actually been feeling so bad about myself recently but then im so conflicted bc i want to share what ive been struggling through w/ others but i just dont think they’d understand. and it’s been such an unbelievable blessing to be able to talk to shar about everything thats been going on and my worries and concerns and dreams and hopes for the future and even though she cant fully understand, she does listen and does genuinely care and want to be here. i can see it in her heart. and i also know that just bc of who shes surrounded by, sometimes she can become corrupted but at the end of the day, she really is a good person and is really trying and i can see that whenever she does have some unhealthy habits like gossiping, it’s coming from a place of love and care. and i do really appreciate that and i do want to make more of an effort in sharing and being open and knowing that i am allowed to rely on God and other people and I don’t want to fight this losing battle alone. Because I won’t lose without the help of others. I don’t want to keep killing myself over this any longer. It is honestly so hard. It is. And it’s so terrible to feel so alone and so bad about myself. But if we’re being attacked this hard, it means we’re doing something wrong. And we are. Sharlene and I have been keeping each other accountable and being more open about our faith and we started a conversation with Mulan, Claire, and Dana. And I’ve been making conscious efforts in really investing into the freshmen at Lakeview and I don’t always feel like I can be open about myself to them bc I want to be their spiritually leaders but Sharlene did remind me that I really admired P. Billy and P. Daisy for being so honest about what was really going on in their lives. And that just made them better leaders in my eyes. And I do want to adopt that mindset too. i know that it is still so incredibly intimidating and scary to be so open about my faith at a school as liberal as Columbia but yknow what? It’s college. No one really knows what theyre doing. They just know that theyre searching and Sharlene was right, we’re planting so many seeds even in just discussing our relationship with God out in public, even if we don’t see it. There was someone that was having a bad day and felt encouraged by our passion for the Lord. There was someone that was wrestling with the Devil and won bc of something we said. And I know that I’m still having a really hard time letting myself cry and really let go and let myself be affected in front of Shar right now but it is something I’m working on. And I do notice how often I’m laughing during dark or heavy situations in an effort to lighten the mood and avoid feeling so bad but I do want to be able to just let myself go and not be able to distract myself with my laptop or phone or thoughts or anything. I just want to come before the Lord and give it up. I just want to pray. 
I just imagined praying really hard for Dana and I do want to do that for her soon. Whether it’s at the retreat or when she leaves or before or whenever. But i just want to let her know that God loves her so much. And every time he sees her making an effort to come out to church or reach out to Him or share about her experience w/ the church, He sees that and the biggest grin grows on His face in excitement for his daughter that is on her way to coming home. He sees her. And he wants nothing more than to just embrace her in His open arms. My main goal for this coming semester and just for this whole year has been making sure Dana has a solid foundation and faith with Christ before heading out to Korea. So even when she is alone and struggling, she will know who God is in her life and just really be able to let go and give it all up to Him. I’m human and imperfect but He is a God that does not judge but rather, loves unconditionally. And despite all her sins and drinking and dating and everything in between, He still loves her and is just waiting so patiently for her to come home with open arms. I do truly believe that. And I really hope she can make it to the lock-in. I don’t know what it will be like but I do want to pray for her. 
But yeah, it was just so nice talking to Shar today. But onto my day:
This morning I woke up at 7:45am by my weirdly very quiet alarm and reset the power in my room. Then I headed off to typography and had a pretty good time with Sara and this new girl I just met today and my stomach was having some issues for the most part, it was just a nice and pleasant experience. I had a good first day and good end to the week. Then I finally got my pizza bagel and the cashier was kind enough to save one for me yesterday, just in case :’) Oh yeah, I also asked a bunch of people last night for my defining characteristics and I got some pretty interesting responses. For one, I found out that Andrew wasn’t mad at me and instead, just lazy. And maybe also depressed but that’s just speculation. Now we’re talking again and I’m happy. But he actually wrote me a very kind letter which I was not expecting. I thought everyone would just give me a list, haha. So I was pretty surprised when people like Andrew and Jeanne actually gave me words of affirmation instead. Jeanne is always so supportive of me T v T
I am so cold down here, omona. But I’m listening to my Christian music still and even started to sing along and it just felt very normal and natural. This is who I am. A person that really loves and believes in God and wants to serve Him with their entirety. I do. 
But after eating my pizza bagel, I headed up to work and stayed there for a while and it was a pretty good shift! I enjoyed talking with Ari and Tess and briefly Michaela. Michaela even brought me fries :’) Cleaning and everything was pretty nice and fun though! It was a long shift but I got to finish my annotations  and everything else went pretty smoothly. I might actually draw my thumbnails at work tomorrow so I’ll have something to do. And then...I will work on graphic design, hehehe. 
I’m really bad at reaching out for help and even just praying about it lately and confessing it to God. I think I just need to be ready and willing to let go and take that jump and risk everything for Him. I know that I felt like that before and even though my heart is filled with so much fear right now, I know that it will be so much better once I give everything up to Him. I felt that joy before and there’s nothing like it.
