I would like to acknowledge that this video was filmed on the traditional lands of the Wurrundjeri people of the Kulin Nation. I would like to pay my respects to their Elders past and present, and extend that respect to all Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander or First Nations people who may be watching this video.

Glad you're feeling better, I hope you get to enjoy some rest in between all the (also fun) christmas events! Sounds like you had a lot of fun reads (at the end of) this week. have the first book in a different series by Jordan L. Hawk on my Kobo, which I think takes place in the same world as Unhallowed, so I'm very excited to get to it with this review🤩🌟
