Nox the Reader

Hi everyone! Welcome to Nox Reads, I'm "Nox", and today's Top 5 Wednesday prompt is about creatures from some of my favorite genres: science-fiction and fantasy! This Wednesday's post is going to be shorter, mainly because I have no idea how I would elaborate on my answers. Don't worry though, because I've seen the prompt for next Wednesday and I can guarantee that post will be  much  longer! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Dragons If you don't think that dragons are cool, then you are  wrong . Dragons are amazing (especially those named Toothless), and  please do not spoil How To Train Your Dragon 3 for me because I still haven't seen it! 2. Phoenixes  Phoenixes are gorgeous creatures that are full of heavy symbolism. The main reason that they're on this list, however, is simple: who doesn't want a bird that's on fire? 3. Mermaids ...

Hi everyone! Welcome to Nox Reads, I'm "Nox", and while I personally believe that I am the  ultimate Hufflepuff , this week's prompt for Top 5 Wednesday is to describe characters that embody my house. So to make sure that the characters I list are accurate representations of Hufflepuff, I want to make it clear which traits I am looking for. Hufflepuffs are known for their loyalty, fairness, and hard work. Some of these may be exemplary examples of two traits but not the other, but I'm still counting them. With that in mind, let's begin! 1. Noah from  The Raven Boys "Wow, Nox is mentioning the Raven Cycle series again. What a surprise!"  - No one ever Yes, at this point the blog has officially turned into a Raven Cycle Stan AccountTM. We know this, and we accept this, okay? The point is that  Noah is such a Hufflepuff!  My precious boy is loyal to a fault. Searching for a dead Welsh king is most definitely considered hard work, and I'd say...

Hi everyone! Welcome to Nox Reads, I'm "Nox", and it's Wednesday my dudes (I apologize for the cringe that I have just started), which means I have a post! Today's Top 5 Wednesday prompt is  Fictional Places I'd Take A Date , which means you get to hear my ramble on about how beautiful these places are. Let's begin! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Cabeswater from The Raven Cycle series by Maggie Stiefvater "Oh wow, Nox is talking about the Raven Cycle series. I'm so surprised!" - no one ever Cabeswater is a magical place though! It's gorgeous, with fish that change color depending on your thoughts, trees that speak Latin, and you can walk through the year. Also, if Ronan Lynch can take his date there then dang it, so can I! 2. Hogsmeade from The Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling "Oh wow, Nox is talking about Harry Potter. I'm...

Hello everyone! Welcome to Nox Reads, I'm "Nox", and today's prompt for Top 5 Wednesday is  Love Interests I Would've Broken Up With , which means that I get to rant about how much I  hate  these characters and relationships! This is going to be fun... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. The Darkling from the  Shadow and Bone  trilogy by Leigh Bardugo I'm in a group chat (shoutout to Nik Nak is a Snik Snak) where everyone is doing a Grishaverse buddy read (some of us are starting  King of Scars  today), and there are a lot of moments where I open the chat to see everyone fawning over the Darkling, but I  just don't get it!  The Darkling is manipulative, and the few interactions that he does have with Alina  (before everything goes sideways) just move too fast. Sorry Darkling, but I am not the Sun Summoner you're looking for. 2. Edward Cullen f...

Hi everyone! Welcome to Nox Reads, I'm "Nox", and since today is Single Awareness Day, yesterday's prompt was discussing female characters whose plots didn't rely on romance. This doesn't mean that they didn't have any romance at all, but it wasn't their only/main storyline. I'm posting this a day later because I spent yesterday with my mom, cousin, and aunt for Galentine's...here's the post! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.  Blue Sargent from the Raven Cycle series by Maggie Stiefvater Look, the synopsis for  The Raven Boys  misled me  sooooo  much! Yes, love does play an important role in Blue's story (she is destined to kill her true love if she ever kisses him), but there is so much that happens in the story that it honestly takes a bit of a backseat. It's important, but it isn't the only thi...
