About Me
Hello there, welcome to my book blog!
In 2022, I started to reconnect with reading. I enjoy the journey of being disconnected from reality and simply indulging in what the characters are feeling. I find it fascinating that words on pieces of paper (and my tablet) could bring about such vivid imagination.
You could perhaps tell, but I mostly enjoy contemporary romance and fantasy. These books often delve into deeper meanings of grief, anxiety and even a sense of loss, aside from just the generic idea of love. It is the fact that these allow me to experience and connect with so many different characters that makes me love reading too.
Part of why I started this book blog was to voice my thoughts and feelings towards a book I’ve finished reading! Some books I’ve enjoyed reading have always created such big feelings in me, and I figured that by reviewing them, I could voice them. Now, I am enjoying reading just as much as I enjoy reviewing / blogging :)
Feel free to connect with me on other social media platforms too! Happy reading! 😊
