A Day in Bookland

It’s been way too long since I last did a post like this. Books and music are some of my favourite things and in my case, one goes along with the other. I tend to listen to (instrumental) music while reading because it helps me concentrate and erase the outside world. However, sometimes there are some non instrumental songs that fit or resemble the story you’re living at the moment and that’s what I’m gonna do today. I have 4 songs that, in my opinion, fit some part of the plot or a character within the book. Hope you enjoy this! ;)

With October being almost over (I still need to process this…) I thought it was a good time to upload another monthly playlist, don’t you think? These 20 songs have been on repeat almost all month long. Some I discovered a week or so ago but they made it to the list because they were awesome and some others have been my favourites for a long time but I kind of rediscovered them this October. We also have instrumental. You guy know I can’t live with it; it’s what accompanies me while reading so of course some of them will be in the playlist.

By now you may know, or maybe not, that  music is a huge part of my life. I can’t live without her basically. It is my great companion. Ask anyone who knows me. I’m always with my headphones on, which is great when you are kind of an anti-social person. Or rather an introvert. So, what is all this rambling you might be wondering? Or maybe not since you’ve probably read the title… Well, I decided to start sharing with you guys what songs I’ve been listening during the month and if you like the idea I might make it a monthly thing, like a wrap-up or something. I’ll make a list of my 20 most listened songs. That way we can recommend each other music. Isn’t it great? Enough talking and more listing… A warning: there might be different songs from the same band or singer and they aren’t in any particular order. Also, they don’t have to be new releases or anything.

I'm one of those people who love to hear music while reading but I don't normally tend to link certain songs to certain books . Don’t ask me why. I don’t know. However, when I saw that some booktubers were making Books and Songs video I thought it was a terrific idea and since then I have wanted to make one of my own. As you may or may not know I don’t have a Youtube channel and I didn’t really know how a blog post about this topic would turn out. You simply put the book and next the song? It sounded lame. But then again, why not making it anyways? I picked up 6 books, even though two of them go together. It will be a long post but here it goes nonetheless. Enjoy!! 1. Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi While reading this book I listened for the first time to Give Me Love by Ed Sheeran. Yes, yes... I know this song is old but I haven't heard it before and I thought it described perfectly well how Juliette feels about her powers and its consequences. She can't...
