My Reading Week | 29th November - 5th December | Von Armin, Roseanne A. Brown & S.T. Gibson.



In this weekly post I am also including the previous week because I only managed to finish Vera by Elizabeth Von Armin and I didn't wanna do a post to include just a couple of lines about a single book. About Vera, I'll say it was a terrifying read. Von Armin manages to depict perfectly well what phycological abuse within a relationship is. It is an incredibly readable novel despite its subject matter. The ending is feels like a nightmare. The whole story is a cautionary tale.

DEC, 4th - Finished A Song of Wraiths and Ruin by Roseanne A. Brown. I had fun with it but I struggled with the writing at the beginning as well as the obvious lack of information about the world and magic system (which was intentional for plot development). I do think it has a lot of potential and I'm intrigued to see where the story goes next.

DEC, 5th - After seeing A Dowry of Blood all over booktube and tiktok I decided to give it a go. I don't tend to have the greatest luck with hyped up books *cough* The Spanish Love Deception *cough* but I am happy to report this one did live up to the hype. The writing lured me in from page 1, it was extremely compelling. Shows very well the suffocating nature of abusive relationships.

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...
