Top Ten Tuesday # 2 (Underrated Authors or Books in Different Genres)




TOP TEN TUESDAY is a weekly book meme hosted by The Broke and The Bookish

This week topic was originally about one genre only but when starting the task of selecting the books I just couldn’t find 10 underrated books of one specific genre so I decided to mix it up a bit.  And also, this task was hard, incredibly hard.


My first 4 options are books from the same author: Marianne Curley. I read them when I was between 13 and 15 years old and I remember reading them alongside some of my friends and LOVING them so so much. All of them are about magic and time-travelling.
The first three are part of a trilogy, the Guardians of Time trilogy: The Name, The Dark and The Key.

Here are the English Covers:

  

And the Spanish covers (which are just hideous):



The 4th book is Old Magic, and is a standalone novel. For this one I actually prefer the Spanish translation of the title, El Círculo de Fuego (in English is basically The Circle of Fire, which I think is kinda cool). Both covers:

 







Next on my list is The Gift of Charms by Julia Suzuki, a middle-grade fantasy book about dragons. Even though it was a middle-grade book and therefore quite easy to read, I just felt in love with the world since the beginning. Highly recommend this one.










My last pick for today is actually another series of four books, written by Ralf Isau, which hasn’t been translated into English I believe. It is a German series and I read it in Spanish a veeeeeryyyyyy long time ago. The series title is Der Kreis der Dämmerung, something like ‘The Twilight Circle’. They are a mixture of historical fiction and fantasy. A must read if you ask me.





And that is all I have for you today. Let me know in the comments below if you've read any all those books or your choices for this topic. 

Have a nice day =)

Vintage Classics: Brontë Series

Maybe you don’t know this about me but I collect different edition of Jane Eyre and when I learnt that Vintage was releasing the new Brontë series I just couldn’t say no.

April 2017

And another month goes by. To be fair, this time it didn't fly around for me; it was quite a slow month in general and I spent half of it reading - I can't even believe I have managed to read all of these books -  and half of it studying for University. I'm all caught up with all my courses and I'm ready to start revising for finals which will be at the end of May/beginning of June. I'm still in awe that for once in my life, I've being productive as hell if I say so myself. Hurray! Basically I wrote down all I had to do and I organised it throughout the first three weeks of April. At the same time I told myself I had to read for fun at least 30 minutes every single day in order to avoid being slumpy due to stress. It worked.

Welcome to A Day In Bookland!

Hello fellow Bookworms! My name is Noelia. I’m 23 years old and I live in Spain. I’m a Psychology Grad but at the moment I’m studying an English Culture & Literature major. I consider myself quite the Anglophile (a what? You may be wondering… well, an anglophile is basically a fan of English culture. Yep! That’s me). Anyways, I should have studied this one since the beginning instead of Psychology but what would be life without some wrong decisions? Well, the important thing is that I’m studying it now and I’m super happy because I just love it. I would love someday to work in the publishing world to be surrounded by books 24/7. It would be the perfect job for me. My dangerous addiction to reading made me go to YouTube to look up for bookish stuff which is making that addiction even worse now that I think about it (Oops!). Reading has been always a part of my life, since I was a little girl and it has got bigger and bigger the older I get. It is true that YouTube...
