o kick things off, I'm sharing my October or perhaps my Fall TBR because this list is way too ambitious. First of all, I need to finish the books that I have on my nightstand, that is my top priority.
Once again, I gave in to the hype, and I bought a copy of The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid for myself. I couldn’t avoid it. Not only was this book praised a lot when it came out, so was the author. And I had to see for myself if I agreed with everyone. Now, after two years of its publication, there…
Time for another tour here on the blog and The End of the World Survivors Club by Adrian J. Walker is the next on the list.

Walker Publisher: Ebury Press Pages: 464 Genre: Post Apocalyptic, Thriller Publication: 5th September 2019 Synopsis: In…
Today, I bring you another blog tour set many light-years away, perfect to escape from our solar system. I’m talking about Lost Solace by Karl Drinkwater. My many thanks to Anne Cater and the author for allowing me to be a part of this tour.

I had this wood box laid around for years lost in the attic. I tried to make something out of it a few times but never succeeded. A few weeks back, I found the box once again and decided that this was the time to turn it into something beautiful. My original plan was to use plastic straws to give a new purpose to them while…
We are finally in August!! Thankfully July is over. It was one of the worst months this year. I fell ill and I haven’t fully recovered yet, I had some personal stuff to deal with, and work was so stressful. So it feels nice to start a new month like turning to a blank page. I also have been quiet around here because I didn’t want…
Author: Jason Segel / Kirsten Miller Publisher: Delacorte Press Pages: 355 Genre: YA Sci-fi Publication: 31st October 2017 If you already don’t know, I LOVE Ready Player One by Ernest Cline. That book was written for an American-80s-baby version of me, just because I didn’t know most of the pop culture references. Otherwise, I’m a sucker for it!! And being a gamer, a geek at heart,…
Another month is over, and my reading slump is still here. I’m trying not to think much about it and just work with it. Reading when I fell like it, don’t when I’m not in the mood, and once again I can’t resist to readathons even though the last ones I’ve failed miserably. If you don’t already know The Booktube-A-Thon, now known as The Reading Rush,…
Today is the final day on the Blog Tour for The Sunday Girl by Pip Drysdale. My many thanks to Anne Cater and to Simon & Schuster UK for allowing me to be a part on this tour. Author: Jonathan Janz Publisher: Flame Tree Press Pages: 352 Genre: Contemporary Horror Publication: 11th April 2019 Synopsis: “Some love affairs change you forever. Someone comes into your orbit…
May it’s finally over and that means it’s time to talk about all the books I read and bought this month. I purposefully skipped April’s wrap-up because I wasn’t in the mood to write about books. I usually can’t shut up about them, but lately, things have changed. I’m in the worst reading slump, and it’s getting quite hard to get out. Please send help! On…
Once upon a time, there was a sad little mouse. He didn’t have a house. He would sleep in the cold, with no one else there to hold, alone in the dark, every day being chased. It was a hard time he faced. Until a friendly witch cast a spell, working really hard to craft it well, and out of paper and clay, she built a…
I really enjoy writing these reviews. They are quick, strictly to the point, and they challenge me to sum up my thoughts on each of the books. If you haven’t seen the first post I did, you should definitely read that, but basically, this idea came from the necessity of reviewing books that I don’t have much to talk about. This doesn’t mean I didn’t enjoy…
