Greetings to all the guys, gals, and non-binary pals reading this! We hope you're having a good day (or night) wherever you are! Whether you're busy with school or participating in holiday events, we're glad you're taking the time to read another chapter of this chaotic mess <3

Jumping right into all our book updates, ThatOneWaterCat has given us another nice, long, chapter of their Ethubs coffee shop AU (like seriously, how do you even write that many words?), where our beloved Bubbles meet some new friends!

To flip the mood completely around, Hakkepeiling234 has updated their book "The New Area 77", in which after a few experiments, Grian has begun to eerily glow. Definitely worth a read :)

I'm sure you all have heard of thathermitweirdo's writing contest, and NinjaKitty1928 has surprised us with a oneshot for said contest! From thathermitweirdo's first half, where X is infected with a magical illness that will eventually take over the server, to Storm's second half where Scar has to battle with himself in order to do what's right, reading both of these oneshots back-to-back certainly will have you in a chokehold of suspense.

Speaking of oneshots- Intanpatr and FluffyBella5 have both updated their oneshot books! From what happens after 3rd life to combat training, a read through both of their books could certainly feed at least one brainrot of yours.

For all you Hels fans,  has updated Hels Rebellion with another long chapter- and it's only part one! Hels and EX's adventure continues as they find a mysterious world border, among other things that will leave you and the characters with many questions.

Just briefly turning away from the stories, we have -Chron- and BlackMors_ updating their Hermittpad and Hermitcraft incorrect quotes books respectively, with more humorous chapters sure to earn at least a few laughs!

AmythistStarr's miscellaneous Hermitcraft book was updated with a chapter of the author's headcanons, all of which are quite unique and interesting! Definitely check it out if you're curious :)

Back with the fics, The Secret of the Wings got an angsty update, in which we along with Mumbo hear about Grian's past with the Watchers. Hermitcraft/Evo crossover fans, if you haven't read this one, I_Exist_Ig's profile might be worth a look!

Are you looking for some fluff rather than all the angst mentioned previously? Well, sixth_constellation has you more than covered with the recent update to their oneshots book. Featuring Welstho and platonic Welspulse, this sweet fic had our hearts going <333

With Hermitcraft S8 and all the 'moon big' shenanigans, there's tons of opportunities for new stories! BeaversWritingDam has their own take on it with Moon Tears, an AU in which Grian is chosen by the moon.

If you're in search of some new oneshots, Anni_Li has some cool ones in their oneshots book, ranging from Grumbo to Evil Xisuma content!

Another call to the Hermitcraft/Evo crossover fans with XxFadingDreamsxX's The Time This Ends! Here, the Hermits are teleported to Evo, and many adventures are sure to follow. Go check it out if it peaks your interest :0!

On the same topic of crossovers, Crazy4Candy_ started a Hermitcraft/DSMP crossover! When many game-breaking things happen to occur at the same time, people go missing and chaos breaks out. There's only a prologue so far, so if you're interested, now might be a good time to hop in.

The ship Grian/EX/Hels has been picking up popularity lately, and CWellerman has a fic called Misunderstood, Feared, and Secretive that centers on it. If this is a ship you enjoy, go give the story a look!

More DSMP crossovers, you say? and0ari updated their crossover Bedrock! In this fic, Tommy falls into Hermitcraft, and all hell breaks loose back on the DSMP.

Anyone interested in some alter ego shenanigans? minecraftfan001 started a story in which Doc makes a cloning machine, and who but Grian is going to press a button and break it?

In the most recent update of EmberDragon34's Steel Blood, a fight breaks out between the remaining humans and the robots. Much stabbing and angst ensues!

It's always lovely seeing another page full of y'all's amazing stories! But, as usual, we must move on to the announcements and milestones we have for this week.

First off, GalaxyRainbow_13 is putting A New Life on hold, but they're still working on other things. Maybe go check out some of their other stories!

I_love_Polar_Bears is going on hiatus for a bit. We wish you a nice break! <3

MarieWishGirl is putting all of their books on hiatus, but they have something big in the works that's sure to be worth the wait :eyes:

If you were worried about not having enough time to finish your entry for their contest, thathermitweirdo extended the due date to the 20th, so there's still loads of time to get something done!

kenzuzus is going to be rewriting their fic Trust, so be on the lookout for that!

Alright, onto the milestones! We've only got a few this week, but all are massive. King_Goose's Grumbo oneshots book hit 20k reads, Two-WayDoorsBish's incorrect quotes book hit 30k reads, and NinjaKitty1928's fic Redemption hit a stunning 100k. Huge congratulations to all of you, very well deserved milestones! <3

One last thing to mention before we go, Two-WayDoorsBish is doing a QnA in their incorrect quotes book to celebrate their milestone. Go give them a nice congrats and drop a few questions! :)

And now, time to wrap up this week's recap. We hope you all enjoyed, and have an amazing next week! Farewell for now!
