Books I want to read before the end of the year

With the days becoming progressively shorter and colder, reading in bed has never felt a more enjoyable and relaxing activity than it does in wintertime. The last month of the year is almost upon us giving me the opportunity to wrap up my reading goals for 2018. Which are the books I want to read…

Summer in Greece TBR

I arrived in Athens a week ago and I am proud to say that this time I only brought six books with me. Okay, it turned out it was seven. Plus my kindle. The weather requires reading under the cool protection of the air conditioner, preferably with a cold drink next to me. These are…

The End of the Year: Book Tag

Hello lovely book people! I was catching up on my YouTube subscriptions a couple of days ago and stumbled upon this new tag by Ariel Bissett: The End of the Year Book Tag. Ariel has created this tag in preparation for winter and the end of the year, which feels suddenly very close, and I…

The Life of A Book Blogger: Tag

Hello everyone! I decided to try something new for me today and do a book tag. I’ve been watching a lot of videos of BookTubers answering some fun questions and I thought maybe I should do one. It’s a sunny Sunday here in Groningen and the weather is surprisingly mild. A stressful week of lectures…

Most Anticipated Autumn Books 2017

Since my return to the city of Groningen daily life has attacked me with tasks and mini chores that need to be completed before the beginning of the academy year, much like an animal would prepare for hibernation, and I cannot shake the feeling for a few weeks now that the dreadful Autumn is almost…

Book Haul (July 2017)

Hello again and welcome to another book haul! Today’s book haul is deceiving because I actually bought all these books in June. And yes, I’ve been very good to my wallet so far and haven’t bought a single book since the beginning of June which is quite the accomplishment for me. Unfortunately, my booknerd friend…

July Reads (2017)

As the days grow increasingly rainier here in Groningen, I am getting more and more eager to spend July in hot and sunny Athens. No matter how eager I am to get out of the humidity of the Netherlands straight under the protective cold of my childhood’s bedroom a/c, the Athenian heatwaves are not a…
