Another week gone by super fast. Ack! Have not had time to read yet. Sigh. But will start my next read in the next few days for sure. Hmph. Been having a difficult week. My body is just not approving. I am just exhausted all the time. It sucks. But I'm trying my best. Got some gorgeous mail that makes me so happy, haha. <3 And waiting on more awesome popmart things. Oops. I spend too much money. Sigh. But it all makes me so, so happy. And I love it all too much :) But yeah, do need to start buying less. Oops. Even though I feel poorly, I have managed to go outside twice this week and take photos for instagram. <3 And I'm liking them all :) Took twelve water pop figures at a new beach, which made me so so sandy, which sucked, ha. But love the photos. So now I have photos planned all through August 15th :) Which makes me so happy. Now going to take a break in taking more until August, ha. We did have a few sunny days this week, so sat outside for hours. But too few of them. Aw. Hope we actually get summer warmth soon. Hmph. My body needs it. Though it makes me so very exhausted. Hoping this coming week will be better. Took medicine at home this week, and I hope it will finally start working like it should. I simply need better energy. This week I'm waiting on Royal Vengeance :D I'm hoping you are all doing well these days. <3

Nevernight Trilogy. Locked Library editions. They are gorgeous. But packing so sucked, so they are damaged. Sobs. Turns out everyone got them damaged. Sigh. I just want a refund. Fingers crossed.
Starfox. New game for my Switch 2 :D I never played the original; so I am curious. Hope to play soon :)
Rayman. I used to play a little Rayman on my gameboy advance years back. Excited to try this soon :D

ROYAL VENGEANCE (Royal Blood #3) BY AIMEE CARTER 

Goodreads Description:

The media believes they have uncovered all the royal scandals about the "killer princess," but there is one game-changing secret remaining that will take the crown in the final book of the Royal Blood series, which Jennifer Lynn Barnes calls "a darker Princess Diaries."

Evangeline Bright has only one shot to prove she isn’t a traitor: by finding the real mastermind behind the plot that almost killed her father, the King of England.

With the help of Kit, her steadfast boyfriend, Evan must find a way to outsmart the real threat to the throne no matter the cost, because the deadliest enemy the monarchy has faced in over a century is back with a vicious vengeance. And Evan soon uncovers the reason why.

A scandal so huge that if it ever becomes public, it will tear the monarchy apart.

To protect her loved ones, Evan must silence her enemies for good—because if the truth gets out, it won’t just shatter the monarchy. It’ll shatter Evan’s entire family.

Format: 400 pages, Hardcover

Meh. This week have not been warm at all. How very rude. I just want some summer days again. Hmph. But we may get a couple days this next week at least. Fingers crossed. And hoping the heat arrives soon. So rude. I want summer the very most. Oh, well. I'm still doing good :) I'm all kinds of exhausted, though. Body is aching a bit too much lately. But I'm surviving. Started fixing some things on my house yesterday, and all of today, and it has killed me the most. Ugh. But I will be happy with it once I finish :) Will start a new book in the next few days, hopefully. Also got some gorgeous mail. Ahhh. May need a buying break soon. Oops :D (Pff, never.) This week I'm waiting on The Sixth Faction. <3 Hope you are all doing well :D

Fairyloot June Adult. The Unicorn Hunters. I think this edition looks all kinds of gorgeous. Hope to love it.

The second one was not one I wanted, but still so cute. Got my second favorite Hacipupu :D Wanted pink, but that grumpy purple is so perfection. Love it. Got my second favorite Zsiga plush, wanted pink. But this blue is adorable. The Zsiga figure was a free gift, and all kinds of cute. The Hirono phone case was a free gift too. So cute. Love all.
Stranger Things. Yes; tried again. Sigh. I just want Max, goddamn it. Or any new. Keep getting the same.

Waiting on Wednesday #766

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

THE SIXTH FACTION BY VERONICA ROTH

Goodreads Description:

The worldwide sensation as you’ve never seen it before. Step into a bold new Divergent series from #1 New York Times bestselling author Veronica Roth.

This deluxe limited edition of The Sixth Faction is unmissable: featuring a gorgeous exclusive cover in an alternate colorway, designed edges, a completely foiled case with a unique stamp, and special endpapers.

Beatrice Prior stands on the brink of a decision every person in her world must make: five factions, five futures, five lives.

She has a plan: she's going to make the bravest choice, and leave Abnegation behind to join Dauntless, even though it means leaving her family behind.

But when tragedy strikes at her Choosing Ceremony, everything changes—her world, her plans, even Beatrice herself.

Her ensuing decision thrusts her into the crosshairs of an underground rebellion, and into the path of a boy with secrets as dangerous as her own—a boy with only a number for a name.

One choice will change everything. 

Format: 528 pages, Hardcover
Expected Publication: October 6, 2026 by HarperCollins
Pre-Order: Blackwells and Amazon US and Amazon UK

Ohhh. I am very curious about this new Divergent book :D It was my favorite book for many years back when it came out. Loved it so, so much. But only read the third book once, as I was not happy with it at all. Sigh. But still adore Veronica, always. <3 And this new story sounds so exciting. I cannot wait to read it. But unsure now if I am going to re-read the Divergent trilogy first. Been so many years since last time.
What are you waiting for on this dangerous Wednesday?
