This was a very interesting read! It has a fairy tale taste to it but combined with black comedy. It is a page turner! Definitely a pick! Maybe the best book I've read in a long while!

I-read-and-eat It sounds great. And such a lovely cover! 8y
lunarseareads @I-read-and-eat it was the cover that got me noticing the book! I cannot stop looking at it, such lovely details 💕 8y

Finding Audrey | Sophie Kinsella

Pickpick

This was my vacation book and despite the heavy issue it's dealing with, it is a really light and enjoyable book. It gives you a very clear idea about anxiety. The characters are real and lovely. I could not put it down and finished it in a few days. It is an enlightening book, definitely a recommend.

Me Before You | Jojo Moyes

Pickpick

I finished the book in no time, it just keeps going, probably very late into the night. The story is far from being a unique plot however the characters are painfully human, the way they deal with difficulties and agony is what makes this book so readable. Though I did not make me cry.

The Sky Is Everywhere | Jandy Nelson

There were some bits that I enjoyed, the poetry was moving but sadly, in the end, the book ended up as another YA book that didn't make a lasting impression.

Looking for Alaska | Green, John

I do not know why but the only John Green book that made an impression on me was The Fault in Our Stars. All of his other books just blended and I cannot even tell them apart. But this book made a lovely read by the poolside, it was enjoyable but not like TFIOS.

HotCocoaReads I kinda felt the same way about Green's books, but I loved TFIOS! 8y

The Martian Chronicles | Ray Bradbury

Pickpick

Ray Bradbury is one of my favorite authors and this book is such a fascinating one. For a book that is dealing with space and aliens and technology, it has quite of a poetic language, an absolute treat.

Gabypen I absolutely love this book! I own this exact copy, and it's gorgeous in every sense of the word. I'm glad someone gets me! 😅🚀 8y

Course of Love | Alain de Botton

If you are familiar with de Botton's work, no doubt you are going to love this one. After Essays in Love, it is such a delight to read another novel written by him. His return to novel is at its finest.

My ultimate pick-me-up book. Also it does not get any prettier than Penguin Threads. This edition makes reading Emma even more beautiful, perfect for cozy night readings.

I was not blown away by this book but still it was fun to read on the thread mill.

Loved it. I have always been curious about Andy Warhol and what better way to read it directly from his pen? It was a very enjoyable read, I finished it on two day, I couldn't put it down.

A wonderful read to get you in the mood before or during Christmas with three beautifully written stories full of Christmas miracles. Lovely cover, too.

Classical Literature | Richard Jenkyns

I really wish that I knew about this book when I was in college. It would have made my Classical Literature class way easier. It is written in a way that is very enjoyable and very through.

I-read-and-eat Beautiful picture and I felt the same about the book. (Luckely I am still in college) 8y

First time reading was during travelling. The story is gripping and the combination of Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett is just out of this world!

Duino Elegies | Stephen Mitchell, Rainer Maria Rilke
post image
Pickpick

Rilke is my absolute favorite poet and this is saying a lot considering that I have a degree on English Lit. His poetry means a lot to me but the thing that makes this book my most beloved poetry book is Stephen Mitchell's translation which is the best compared to the others. Don't miss out!

I read this book when I was travelling so it was enjoyable and easy to read on busses and in cars. So it was not earth-shattering or anything but it made bus trips bearable.

As a huge Doctor Who fan, I think it is great to have this book. There is nothing new if you have watched all the episodes but it is wonderful to take a walk down the memory lane. I usually keep this book on my bedside table so that I can go through it whenever the mood strikes.

A Walk in the Woods | Bill Bryson

A book I found while I was travelling so it is so precious to me. It made me so eager to hiking in the woods. It was a quite a realistic reading about hiking in the wilderness. Also it was full of interesting facts. All in all it was a very enjoyable reading for me, I definitely recommend.
