Hey everyone! My amazing friend Mridula from Ecstatic yet Chaotic came with a great idea for a book meme. We put out heads together and this is what we created:
Name of the meme: Bookish Discovery of this Week
Hosted by: Ecstatic yet Chaotic and Travelling Through Words
Description:
Every Thursday, we talk about something new that we discovered which is book related. It can be something that is recently created or discovered or it can be something old that you just discovered or you are interested in. It can be a book you just read or added to your tbr. It can also be an author, genre, poem, story, word, character, a new trend etc. Basically anything that is related to books. You can also share some news or talk about something that caught your eye.
Top 10 Tuesday is a weekly book meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. For future Top Ten Tuesday topics & info on how to participate, click here.
In terms of reading, May was a good month. In the beginning, I was reading very slowly but towards the end my summer holidays started and then I was reading like crazy.
I managed to complete 8 books out of which 4 were sent to me for review. Also, 6 books were paperbacks and 2 were ebooks.
I tried hard to think about a topic to write about. Many came to my mind but I just didn’t feel like writing them. There have been a lot of things related to books and blogging on my mind and today I’m gonna share them.
Hey everyone! I acquired 9 books this month and I’m excited to tell you all about them 😀
A major part of the books I own are classics, and a huge portion of that part is unread.
I say that classical literature is one my favorite genres. That is mainly because I have enjoyed almost every classic I have read so far. I love the long stories, the complex plots and the beautiful writing. However, I cant deny the fact that classics take much more time and effort to read than other books. Because of this, I always lag behind on reading them.
Today I want to share with you all some classic books that are sitting on my shelf unread.
I was tagged by the amazing Nadwa @ Painfully Fictional to do this tag. You all should definitely check out her blog if you haven’t already.
I’m not a huge Disney fan. I love most of the movies and shows I have watched from them but I haven’t watched many of the princesses movies. Nevertheless, this is a fun tag and I’m gonna do it as I liked the questions.
Genre: Contemporary
My Rating: 3.5 stars
Rafflesia The Banished Princess is the story of Appu’s life and struggles. It starts from his childhood and tells us about the bonds and friendships he makes throughout his life. His favorite story is that of a princess called Rafflesia and when things get tough, he wishes to stay in the story forever.
I said in my first book haul post that I don’t do monthly book hauls because I don’t collect a lot of books in a month
That changed last month.
I accumulated a total of 14 books in April. That in itself is more than the books I collected in the whole of 2016. Six of these books I have already talked about in my used books haul post in the middle of April. I’m going to tell you a little bit about the rest of them.
Hey everyone! I’ve never done a monthly TBR post before because I know I will end up not following it. However, this month there are 4 books that I’m definitely going to read so I thought I would share them with you.
April was an okayish month for me in terms of reading. The first two weeks I wasn’t reading much and my school started after that so it got quite busy. The good thing is that I managed to read 6 books and that, good collection too. Two books had been on my TBR list for a long time, two were review books and the remaining two were audiobooks, one of which was a classic. I’m not going to tell all of my thoughts on these books as I plan to do reviews of most of them.
Hi everyone! I don’t know if any of you noticed, but I haven’t posted anything for the last five days and I hate myself for that. It was mainly because I didn’t pre-write any posts and it’s hard for me to write on weekdays while school is going on. Anyways, I don’t plan on this happening again.
This weekend on the 29th April was Dewey’s 24 Hour Readathon and this was my first time participating in it. If you don’t know, it is a readathon where everyone starts at the time around the world and reads for 24 hours while sharing their progress. I must say I had a lot of fun doing this and I’m already anticipating the next one in October.
