Kasumigaseki : een reis door het hart van het traditionele Japan De kunstdruk van Kasumigaseki door Utagawa Kuniyoshi dompelt ons onder in een levendige en dynamische scène, waar de heldere kleuren en minutieuze details de essentie van het feodale Japan vastleggen. Dit werk, emblematisch voor de ukiyo-e-prent, schetst een levendige sfeer, waarin de personages bijna tot leven lijken te komen onder onze ogen. De nuances van blauw en rood mengen harmonieus, waardoor een opvallend contrast ontstaat dat de aandacht trekt. De houtdruktechniek, beheerst door Kuniyoshi, maakt een fijne lijnvoering en een rijke textuur mogelijk die deze doek bijzonder boeiend maken. Utagawa Kuniyoshi : een meester van de Japanse ukiyo-e Utagawa Kuniyoshi, actief in de 19e eeuw, is een van de meest invloedrijke kunstenaars van de ukiyo-e-school. Hij staat bekend om zijn gedurfde weergaven van krijgers, legendes en landschappen, en bevindt zich in een overgangsperiode waarin de Japanse kunst begon open te staan voor westerse invloeden. Zijn werken worden gekenmerkt door grote expressiviteit en technische innovatie, waardoor hij een pionier in zijn vakgebied is. Kuniyoshi wist zich te laten inspireren door de populaire cultuur van zijn tijd, door elementen van folklore en geschiedenis te integreren die nog steeds resoneren, wat de waarde van zijn artistieke nalatenschap onderstreept. Een decoratief stuk met vele voordelen De kunstdruk van Kasumigaseki is een ideaal decoratief stuk om je interieur te verrijken, of het nu in een woonkamer, kantoor of slaapkamer is. De kwaliteit van de afdruk en de trouw aan het originele werk maken het een aantrekkelijke keuze voor kunstliefhebbers en liefhebbers van Japanse cultuur. Met zijn levendige kleuren en verfijnde esthetiek brengt dit schilderij een vleugje exotisme en rust in je ruimte. Door voor deze doek te kiezen, kies je voor een werk dat niet alleen je inrichting verfraait, maar ook uitnodigt tot contemplatie en ontsnapping.Shipping Notes

Adult Fiction disguised as YA
Format: Kindle
When you first read the blurb and or the initial chapters of Crows, you’d think this was an adult fantasy book. The book even reads like adult fantasy, until you discover it’s anything but.
I think the biggest plot twist to this is in the way the author matter-of-factly tells you the exact age of her characters and its always coupled after explaining that characters extraordinary background.
Somehow it’s possible to be a seasoned assassin, rogue or racketeer (or all three, in that order) at just 13-17 years old.
Somehow you can live the life of a jaded 50-year-old at the ripe ol’ age of 12.
Somehow all the adults are either too rich, too dense or too dead (or all three, in that order) to operate a lucrative underground business, but kids are exceptionably capable.
Somehow it’s possible to be a father-figure to people the same age as you.
I’m specifically talking about Kaz here. He’s like that hardnose uncle who grunts all the time and tells you only what he wants you to hear. I loled each time he scolded a member of his crew.
Initially (before I knew the ages of these people) I thought Kaz & Inej’s relationship was more a teacher/mentor relationship, but then it morphed into this awkward romance where Kaz has less personality than a rubber ducky and Inej a lukewarm glass of water. To be fair, Inej got better as the story progressed, becoming the only one I really liked.
To the author’s credit, she does make a point to explain Numbuh One—I mean, Kaz’s abnormal cynical mannerism. But then the other characters (who are younger btw) act similarly. What’s their excuse? It was jarring to get behind, but what aided me through was that I just pictured everyone looking like the main cast from Kids Next Door and it helped tremendously!
Matthidus and Nina are virtually the same character. Their chapters were a drag on the narrative due to the fact that these two NEVER STFU about what they did to one another. It’s the “woe, it’s me” amped up to a thousand.
Jesper and Wylan were cool… that’s all I have to say about them.
Never at one point did I have a liking to any of the characters (besides Inej), neither did I feel they were ever in any real danger. Kaz is a walking-talking dues ex machina. The characters find themselves in a bind and he already has the solution to their problems. He’s like Superman morphed with Batman while the other characters are just your bog standard Metropolis denizens who constantly need saving or guidance.
In a nutshell, he’s a Mary Sue.
I found the pacing bogged down to the point that it was hard to keep my eyes open while reading. Not because it’s badly written but because the author constantly reverts back to the characters’ backstory over and over again. There would be a needless flashback in the middle of a fight scene. Characters near death randomly float off to dream land while getting the crap beat out of them. It was jarring.
Closing remarks
All-in-All, Crows is a unique book. I can’t really talk about the plot without spoiling anything, but it’s innovative and engaging. I can say the book is worth your time if you can circumvent the kids playing grownup, then you should enjoy it.

Good start to a series
Format: Kindle
I delayed reading the series for reasons I don’t remember. But my TBR list is huge so I thought I’d take a shot of this and I was pleasantly surprised. I didn’t think the blurb about it was anything special. But it was a very good book. It took some interesting twists and turns. I am so glad the second book is already out. Because I would not have waited patiently. Very slow burn but good storyline. 🔥🔥/5

A good read
Format: Kindle
Multiple points of view. 3 Alpha men and an Omega male. She is a Beta in training for a new program placing betas in Alpha/Omega packs. Mila is only doing the program for the money to take care of her dad. She wasn't expecting to fall for a pack but when she sees this packs Omega she is done for. There is just something about him. His Alphas are good looking as well. Too bad she is hiding a secret and their government is acting shady. I liked it and can't wait to see where their story goes.

Slightly repetitive but I did love some things
Format: Kindle
I love this type of story. And omegaverse is one of my all time favorite genres. But there are a few things that pulled me out of my enjoyment while I was reading. It was repetitive at times as well as struggled with telling not showing. So we didn’t always feel like we were experiencing things with the main character. There were also some plot holes but they may still be answered in part 2.
Now this isn’t to be said I didn’t enjoy parts of the story. I loved the almost instant love between Mila and Oliver. And how he started changing around her.
