It’s been quite a while since you’ve heard anything from me, more than a year in fact. I’m currently in the middle of studying law, which is quite time-consuming and haven’t had the chance to read as many books as I would have liked to. I did manage to read some during the summer, and one has stood out in particular: Beautiful World, Where are you by Sally Rooney. It marks the third book I’ve read and loved written by the young Irish author. Rather than writing a review (it’s been a couple of months, so maybe better like this!), I’d like to share why I love her books and what makes them so special for me.
Continue ReadingSerpent and Dove – Review
I read this book in August, but haven’t had the chance to write a review yet. Loved it, tho. I hadn’t read a fantasy novel for quite some time and so being transported into a different and new world was super magical. Here are my thoughts!
continue readingPride and Prejudice – Review
It’s been half a year since I have last posted! The last semester was super stressful and during summer break, I spent most of the time traveling, writing papers and revising. I have, however, read a couple of books (just haven’t had the time to write reviews). But now, after finishing Pride and Prejudice, I feel like I really need to get things off my chest. So here are my thoughts!
continue readingHow I experienced the start of my first semester back at uni after covid
This is a different post than usual, but I’ve been thinking about this all week as it’s been my first week with live lectures and not online classes. It’s definetely been a huge change and I wanted to share my thoughts with you on how it affects the every-day life and how we perceive things. So no book-related content for today.
continue readingThe Viscount who loved me – Review
It’s been a while since I’ve written a review – mainly because I’ve been reading Harry Potter again and writing a third or fourth review on a book would be a little excessive, and secondly, because all I’ve been doing is reading court rulings for my seminar paper (which was incredibly fun, no hate here!). But after watching Bridgerton Season 2 and being dumbstruck at how I could even love the second season more than I did the first, I decided it was time to read the books. I just finished the second one (yes, I started with the second – I was invested in Anthony and Kate) and loved it. Here’s my review!

Another week, another Top 5 Tuesday, hosted by Meeghan @Meeghan Reads. I’m super excited to write this post because I have A LOT of unfished series because I have the tendency to LOOOVE the first book and then I start the second one and never end up finishing it… So here we go!
continue readingTop Five Tuesday: books that have been on my TBR forever!
It’s time for another tag – oh how I’ve missed writing tags!!! I have class in fifteen minutes (online), so I will speed through this! Top 5 Tuesday was created by Shanah @ Bionic Book Worm, and is now being hosted here @ Meeghan reads!
continue readingMy experience with social media detox
I have been struggling with how much social media consumes my life lately. I have been feeling extremely stressed and overwhelmed with university and the amout of work and studying I have to do and sometimes the lack of motivation – and my way of coping was social media, or TikTok to be more specific. One week ago, I decided to detox and not spend any time on TikTok and here are the effects I’ve noticed so far and what helped me to overcome the difficulties when you think “Now’s a good time to watch TikToks”.
continue readingThe books I read during the holidays
The holidays feel like a lifetime ago, so much happened: I went back to Munich, uni started again and I MOVED INTO MY OWN APPARTMENT – what?!
January was super intense, happy because I love living alone and I’m not lonely (my fear) and also sad because the holidays were such a magical time with my family. I spent two weeks just NOT DOING ANY WORK, reading, watching movies, going on walks and spending quality time with my family. I reread (nostalgic, you know) a few books and thought I’d share them if anyone is in need of awesome books!
continue readingFirst Impressions: The Spanish Love Deception
It’s been some time since I’ve read a book not connected to university and I have very strong feelings about the start of the story, so here is my first impression of The Spanish Love Deception by Elena Armas. I actually discovered this book on TikTok, which is so funny to me because I usually see TikToks of all the books I love, but this one was about great romance reads and since that is not my genre, I didn’t know a single book – anyways, here’s my first impression!
