Time for a mini-review again! I haven’t done a list review in forever, and I think it’s time. Especially because I’m so conflicted about The Path Keeper – it’s an okay book, and yet I struggled to get through the first half of it. Might be personal reasons, really – so I’ll try to lay out all of my complicated…

Sylvain Neuvel is an amazing writer, and The Test is an incredible book. I don’t understand how you can put this much tension in merely around 100 pages!! And I have absolutely no idea how to review it without spoilers. Maybe you could just take my word on the fact that you should absolutely, definitely read it? Check out on…

Time for a mini-review! This time – a light and uplifting book called A Random Act of Kindness, which about a girl finding her own place and voice in the world. And of course, with a dash of romance. And everything starts with a good deed… With more good deeds to follow. Check out on Goodreads ★★★★☆ 4 stars A…

This month I sat down and made a dent in my old ARCs! Posted reviews for some I had read and not reviewed, as well as just sitting down and reading some older ones that needed finishing or tackling in general. I read 10 old review copies and also DNFed four old ones, which at this point is a win,…

When I got this book off Edelweiss as a free download, I didn’t know if I’d like it. I don’t read a lot of thrillers either, but something in the blurb just hooked me. And it made for some good reading! For lovers of thrillers and conspiracy theories, it’s definitely worth a go. Check out on Goodreads ★★★✬☆ 3.5 stars…

Do you remember how I recently reviewed a book about kids and teens in a theatre, called The Swish of the Curtain? I loved that book, and of course, I started reading the sequels as fast as I could get my hands on them. This is mostly the review for the second sequel, Maddy Alone, but I read the third…

It took me almost half a year to read Angie – but that’s not because I didn’t like it. Angie is one of those books that grips you to the heart, and you just somehow know it won’t exactly end well. Poignant is all I can call it, because while the ending completely flooded me with #feels and broke me, it…

It’s been a while that I’ve read a book like The Heavens – one that’s essentially a contemporary, but somehow feels so much like a fairytale. And it’s not that it’s got any fairytale stuff going on at all – perhaps it just hints at magical realism or something like that. No, it’s more in the way the story is…

I’ve been thinking, and I guess my hiatus was not long enough. That is to say, I don’t really want to take another one, but I think I want to post less, and the fact that I have to post based on any calendar just makes me feel like it’s work. So I’m probably going to abandon the Sunday posts for…

I finished Walking to the End of the World several weeks ago, but I am still feeling a reading hangover, so to say – I still wish I was reading it. I keep catching myself stuck in how I imagined the places the book talked about the the way it made me feel. It’s like I almost went there myself.…

Second week that I’m back blogging and I am still unable to quite be back 100%! Work is still going a bit crazy, and my health is starting to suffer for it. So I won’t be concentrating on the blog too much – however, I’ve decided to just keep it at a point where I’m having fun. Isn’t that the…

This book was awesome! So awesome, in fact, it was like a breath of fresh air in my several-months-long reading and blogging slump. It’s Moon Mission that got me out of my hiatus, because I was actually so excited to write the review! Let me start with the fact that while it may be written with teens in mind, its…

So I’ve just come out of my hiatus, and it feels like coming up for air, really. But not just in a sense that it’s refreshing, but also that you’re hit on the head with reality 😂 and the reality is that the calendar has been running while you were away! So now there’s a bunch of ARCs that you…

So… I’m back from my hiatus! (I think?) And I thought, what better way to be back than post a newbie introduction post? Although due to my hiatus, these people might already be quite well known to you, at least some of them, but late or not, feature it is! So welcome the newest book bloggers!! A GIF of people clapping in…

So you might remember how I said I have had about the worst week ever last Sunday? Well… I had an even worse one this week. I can’t even tell you… And that’s partly the point of this post. I have no posts scheduled. I haven’t hauled books in two weeks. I haven’t finished reading one since the end of…

I was so excited to write a review for this one! The Swish of the Curtain is strangely both as relevant as ever, and slightly dated at the same time. But it’s a wonderful read! First released in 1941, it talks about timeless things such as ambition, talent and… your parents not letting you do what you want with your…

Okay, so for those who want the news here and now and won’t care to read the whole post – The Boy Who Steals Houses was awesome! You ABSOLUTELY need to buy it now! I loved A Thousand Perfect Notes, so I was a little worried to read the book that came after it. What if I didn’t like it…

At the start of March, I looked at my blogging calendar, and thought… Ah, I’m at 100 Sunday posts, almost. I will have to do something special for my 100th. After all, it’s my favorite post of each week, and it’s always my most popular post of the week as well. Funny that, the post also coincides with a monthly…

This month my ARC reading has really been going well! I am catching up to my due books, and in general just enjoying it. Then again, there was one very problematic ARC which I’ve already talked about on Twitter. I won’t be giving it more publicity here and just ignore that even happened though! Instead, I wanted to start out…

Today we will be talking about something different, and definitely not something a lot of people consider to be a part of the life of a bookworm – dyslexia. But it can be! And so today I have a fellow bookworm and book blogger here, to talk about her experience with dyslexia and how she nonetheless pursued her hobby of…
