January 2016


Long time, no see. January was spent among textbooks and notes. Revision took over my life and I had no time for anything else. I’ve done three exams but I still have two more to do and 10 days before being completely free but I’m gonna try and be more present on the blog; not only on mine but in everyone else’s as well. I miss it.

Anyways, my reading suffered in January and I got to 4 books, and another 2 were DNFs. One of my resolutions for this year is to stop reading a book if I’m not getting anything out of it. My bookshelves are filled with so many unread books and I don’t have the time to waste in “bad books”. I know, I know…. The “what if it gets better” question will always be there but let’s be real, if you’re halfway through a book and there is nothing there for you to enjoy, chances are the book is not gonna get any better. And it’s time to accept it and move on. Or at least, that’s what I’m trying to do.


I cannot wait for exams to be over so I can have all the free time in the world. How did January treat you?

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...
