The story behind my favourite books

Today I was in the mood to talk to you about me favourite books, so that’s what I’m doing. I decided I want to tell you guys the story of how I found these books, when and why I read them, etc. So let’s jump right in as I try to keep my fangirling to a minimum.

My Eastern – European road trip pt. 3 // Travel

Today I’m writing a third post about my Eastern – European road trip. Here is part one and here is part two. I have been really enjoying telling you all about my travels, so let’s get started where I left of!

My Booktube-A-Thon 2017 TBR

I’m writing this quick post to tell you all that this year I’m participating in the Booktube-A-Thon. It’s my first year and I’m most excited! It’s also my first every readathon. To honour the fact that it is a BOOKTUBE -A-Thon, I made a video announcing my TBR instead of a blog post. I hope you like that!

I would be most grateful if you watched my video!

June & July Book Haul // Random splurges and travel memories

Today I’m coming at you with a good old book haul. I’m not the kind of person who buys 15 books a month, but I have accumulated quite a few books in the past two. So I decided to share them with you!

My Eastern-European road trip pt. 2 // Travel

Today I’m writing another post about my Eastern-Europian road trip! I’m still travelling and I’m loving it! I love to see and explore new places and I’m utterly grateful for being able to do so. In my first post I left off telling you about the lakes of Plitvice, so today I’ll start with the following day.

The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas // Important, emotional and impactful

I finished The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas a few days ago and I decided to review it because it’s such a good and important book. It has become one of my favourites!

Goodreads blurb:

Sixteen-year-old Starr Carter moves between two worlds: the poor neighborhood where she lives and the fancy suburban prep school she attends. The uneasy balance between these worlds is shattered when Starr witnesses the fatal shooting of her childhood best friend Khalil at the hands of a police officer. Khalil was unarmed.

Soon afterward, his death is a national headline. Some are calling him a thug, maybe even a drug dealer and a gangbanger. Protesters are taking to the streets in Khalil’s name. Some cops and the local drug lord try to intimidate Starr and her family. What everyone wants to know is: what really went down that night? And the only person alive who can answer that is Starr.

But what Starr does or does not say could upend her community. It could also endanger her life.

Be present // Self-love

Today I’m writing another post in my self-love series. I got the idea for it yesterday when I was in the Krka National Park in Croatia. As you my know from my previous post, I’m currently on an East-Europian road trip. In the Krka National Park there’s a beautiful waterfall you may swim next to and while I was floating there, I had a deep moment thinking about life and it lead me to the idea of this post.

My Eastern-European road trip // Travel

Today I’m writing something I don’t usually post, but I still love to do it! I’m talking about posts about travelling. This July I’m going on a road trip in Eastern-Europe together with my parents and I’m bringing you along! This post will feature the first five days, but I still have more than enough to talk about!

Mid Year Book Freak Out Tag

So today I’m doing a good old tag and I’m joining the bandwagon, because the tag is the Mid Year Book Freak Out Tag. I don’t know who was the original creator, but it wasn’t me. I believe it originated somewhere on YouTube, but I could be wrong. I was tagged by the amazing Nadwa over at Painfully Fictional. She has a beautiful blog and I definitely recommend checking it out!
