First Impressions: 1984

I chose this book for an English project and so this is for school – however, it doesn’t feel like it as I’ve been planning on reading this for a while now and just got lucky to combine fun and school! Here are my first thoughts on George Orwell’s famous novel 1984!

First Impressions: A Winter’s Promise

This is one of the books I got for Christmas (list here!) and I started reading right away. My mum got me this book because the last time we went to the book store, we found an astonishing cover with a great story that turned out to be number two of this series called The Mirror Visitor – and she got me the first book and I love it. Here are my first thoughts!

First Impressions: Faust

Faust by Johann Wolfang von Goethe is Germany’s most renowned work and simultaneously the most hated one by students. I’ve reached the point of my educational career where I was forced to step up my game and read it for class. Here are my first thoughts!

First Impressions: The Mitford Murders

It’s finally the weekend again and I’ve had some time to catch up on my reading and am therefore able to take notes on my first impressions of Jessica Fellowes new series, The Mitford Murders.

First Impressions: Ninth House

As soon as Leigh Bardugo released her new novel, I ordered a copy for myself for obvious reasons. I want to be as overwhelmed as I was after Six of Crows and Shadow and Bone – and so far, she hasn’t let me down. Here are my first thoughts!

First Impressions: Stalking Jack the Ripper

This book has been on my TBR for more than a year and I never managed to pick it up – now this time has finally arrived, I’m a little over 100 pages in and so here are my first thoughts!

First Impressions: The Night Circus

Immediately after writing the last Top Ten Tuesday where I listed all the books on my TBR I was avoiding, I picked up the number one – just to get rid of all the fears: and it was The Night Circus. Here are my first thoughts!

First Impressions: Sapiens

I’ve made it a very specific goal of mine to try and read more non-fiction books in order to educate myself a little outside of school and to acquire more basic knowledge. In order to accomplish this goal, I’ve started to read the very renowned book Sapiens – a brief history of humankind. Here are my first thoughts!

First Impressions: A Visit from the Goon Squad

This book by Jennifer Egan was quite the spontaneous read as I was forced to pick it as the the only English contemporary book at the store in Vienna. So here are my first thoughts on this spontaneous novel!

First Impressions: Circe

This book has been on my summer TBR list forever and I’m super happy that I finally got around to start it – quite some time after everyone else, but eventually, I always come around! Here are my first thoughts!
