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 is a big thing today but I decided to start a blog for two main reasons: first, I feel very weird talking to a camera and second, I rather write just because I can expose my thoughts in a more organized way instead of ramble about for hours.

Besides reading, music and TV shows are my other passions. Seriously, you don’t wanna know how many TV shows I watch but all of them give me the feels (sometimes I think I’m a masochist LOL). When it comes to music I listen to a lot of different genres but my favourites are rock, indie, gothic rock and instrumental, including soundtracks, have a special spot in my heart. OH! I get the goose bumps hearing Celtic music. It’s pleasure to my ears.

And I think that’s all! Hope you like the blog and stay =)

Book Review // The Improbability of Love by Hannah Rothschild

The Improbability of Love  by Hannah Rothschild { Goodreads } Published by Bloomsbury in 2016 Paperback edition; 479 pages { BookDepository } The Improbability of Love follows a bunch of different characters all involved in different ways with the art-world scene in London when a very famous painting –which gives name to the novel – is found by Annie, the main protagonist we could say, in a thrift shop. Don’t be fooled by the cover which screams chick-lit through and through; the novel deals with so much more.

Book Review // The Madwoman Upstairs by Catherine Lowell

Weekend Reads

This weekend I'm planning on finishing El día de año nuevo y otros cuentos maravillosos  - a short story collection by Vladímir Odóievski that so far it's simply okay nothing really special- and reading a chunk of Outlander . I'm halfway through the latter and so far, it's a very enjoyable read; I started watching the TV show last year when it premiered but stopped after some episodes because I wanted to read the book. I'm finally caught up with what I saw and from now on I don't know what's going to happen which makes me wanna read even more. What are your plans for the weekend?
