My Reading Week | 18th - 24th October | Frank Herbert


OCT, 20th - Late last night I finished Dune. Read part III in one sitting which is something I haven't done in a while. What I can say is that part I and III were good but I found part II very boring and the old-fashioned writing style made me struggle sometimes to engage with the text. The story was good though and will be worth rereading. 

OCT, 23rd - Very slow reading this week but at least managed to get to part IV of Book II in War&Peace and I only have to more parts before finishing Book II 🥳. Probably this will be my last update for the week since tomorrow Sunday it's my cousin's son's birthday and we are all getting together to celebrate. Despite not being able to read a bit more, I did make some progress with Sorrowland by Rivers Solomon & We Have Always Been Here by Samra Habib. Both good so far. Most likely will finish them both next week since I have two other halloweeny reads I want to read this October. Cannot believe the month is ending next week. Like, how?!

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.

The Gif Tag!

Jess over at My Reading Dress – seriously, go follow her! – tagged me a while ago to do the Gif Tag and I haven’t been able to post it earlier because I have no clue about technology and I couldn’t make the gifs work so I had to investigate a bit. Also, I haven’t read most of the books of the list. I really hope this works out alright so without further ado, let’s get started! Oh, I might have used more than one gif for some of the books...

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.
