Back From Road Trip, Current Reads & House of the Dragon

 


Hey y'all! I am back from a road trip to beautiful North Carolina; I had such a good time! We stayed overnight in Nashville going there and Louisville coming back, and we roamed around Raleigh and Wilmington, very fun times were had! Pippa went with us on the road trip and she's such a good traveler! Since I've got back, I've just been reading some of the books above (really really loving White Oleander, it's such a beautiful modern classic in my opinion) and catching up on Real Housewives of New Jersey! Man, that show is a mess, everyone just hates each other at this point, like, there's no turning back!

I also need to catch up on House of the Dragon. I adore this show, it is so freaking good! I'm Team Black all the way and pledge my allegiance to Queen Rhaenyra. I love the Targaryens so much. Game of Thrones really crashed and burned, but House of the Dragon is doing really well so far in my opinion. I'll do reviews of each episode for Season 2 as I catch up! Besides that, I've been doing a lot of art lately and working on my art social media. Here's an example of what I've been doing!:




I did a lot of paintings awhile back and here's one of them! I added details with acrylic paint pens and metallic markers as well! I've also been working on sketchbook drawings and I have a batch of art uploaded to my laptop to edit and resize and upload to my redbubble art shop at artbyalette.redbubble.com 

I also finished a very dark romance book called Better Run by Alina May the other night. I gave it 2.5 stars rounded up to 3. It was okay. The book got repetitive, there was little romantic connection, and it was just meh. However, the sequel comes out in August so I'll read it and see if I enjoy it more. 

I guess I'll stop rambling for now! I hope all my fellow Americans have a Happy 4th of July tomorrow!
