This book was one of the first that got me into reading, it's so beautiful I will never forget it.
Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secret of the Universe ...
I was intrigued by this book after watching Haley Pham's and Sara's Carrolli's YouTube videos. This is the feel good fairytale that your parents might have read to you at childhood. This book has sprinkled adventure, tension, fantasy and romance. A g...
Once upon a broken heart: 1/3 book✨
This book was probably the first foreign author book that got me into reading, I remember not liking it very much but I did give it 4 stars. Anyone else still not sure about their rating system? ✋🏻 I probably need to reread this. It's a beautiful bo...
Everything I Know About Love by Dolly Alderton
I read the first and the second books and they were just what I seem to like. They're about the mundane stuff, slow, not much happening, just ordinary life. Been wanting to read more Murakami books, just haven't had the chance yet.
The Rat Series by Haruki Murakami
LOVED this one. It feels everything I've dreamed off, like in a cool movie where you see the main character doing epic sidequests, that's what life should be about - sidequests, doesn't have to be epic.
Ta, kuri pasakė: na ir f**k - Anne-Sophie Lesage, knyga
This book was about the same as the last one, the f**k it one, life, epic, love, everything you need. Read it, please.
Since You've Been Gone by Morgan Matson
This is one of my favorites. Seems like I said that about every book😅 But I love Sally, her books are close to home, the tv show is great too.
Normal People by Sally Rooney
Such a beautiful and insightfull adaptation of the folklore. A must read truly. 🙏🏼
The Song of Achilles: A Novel by Madeline Miller
This one is spicy, but such a fast and emerging read, all of the parts are. Recommend if you're in the mood for a quick, spicy, real life romance. chef's kiss💋
The Fine Print
My first official mystery, since I do not enjoy disturbing stories in any way this was right up my alley. Such a witty and interesting book, enjoyed it loads. The movie adaptation was very accurate too, would recommend. 🙌
Thursday Murder Club Series by Richard Osman
Reminded me of all the comfort romcom movies, exactly what you would need on a rainy autumn evening. Have not read the second or however more parts there are but let me know if they're worth reading.
Better Than the Movies
First of the fantasy series that became a TV show. An imersive read, not one that I have read before so a fresh new perspective. Will share more of the series further down the list.
Shadow and Bone #1 - Leigh Bardugo
Just found out there are more parts! 😁 Bought this book and went into it without knowing anything and I was pleasantly surprised. A quick, easy and enjoyable read. Won't regret it.
Unhoneymooners #1 - Christina Lauren
My first and only (at the moment) Ali Hazelwood read. Such a fun, filled with witty suspense book. I do have to warn everyone that it has some extra steamy scenes. Would love to read more of this author, let me know your favorite Ali Hazelwood book.�...
The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood
Will not be for everyone because I'm not sure if this book is translated. But was such a nice, fresh view of different people. So real and raw. Been trying to find the first book of Beata's, have not had much luck, let me know if you know where I can...
Beveidžiai (skaityta knyga)
I read the book after watching the movie and I'm not going to lie but I liked the movie more. I can say I grew uo watching The Hobbit and I love it to this day, there would be no movie I love without this book so I am glad I read it.
The Hobbit, or There and Back Again by J.R.R. Tolkien
Everything I wished for from my life was to be someone's happy place, such a heartwarming book, loved it so much. You're missing out if you still haven't read it.
Happy Place by Emily Henry
I loved the second part as much as the first. It feels like home to me, hope you get that feeling too.
Aristotle and Dante Dive into the Waters of the World (…
This was a new experience for me, such and interesting and charging story. One of my favorite reads. Think about it quite often. If you like video games you probably will like this too.
Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin
The cover is prettier in real life. This is a book touching history, a personal story that is very interesting. You might learn something reading this just like me.
Violeta. Buch von Isabel Allende (Suhrkamp Verlag)
Volume 4 is missing from the pictures🤔 Still getting throuy the series but anyone who's seen the TV show or read this knows that's it's so heartwarming and real, you can't do anything just cheer for everyone in these amazing books.
Heartstopper Series by Alice Oseman
Can't say more that it's fast, immersive, has the romance you want to hit your head on the wall it's so good. Spicy, consume with caution. 🌶️
Terms and Conditions (Dreamland Billionaires, #2)
Did not expect to like it as much as I did. Not sure if this is the real story, probably not? But it was so interesting to read, would definitely recommend.
Eiffel by Nicolas d'Estienne d'Orves
You might have noticed that I skipped the second part, it put me into a slump, wasn't bad but just a transitional book that seemed dragged out for me. But the last was such a good conclusion to the story, devastating and ground breaking.
Ruin and Rising (Shadow and Bone, #3) by Leigh Bardugo
My first holiday book and it was so good. I liked it very much. A great read for the holiday time, very setting fitting.
The Holiday Swap by Maggie Knox
Broke my own heart time and time again. Cried so many times. Never experienced this much pain for someone who's not even real (most likely). Read carefully, look up trigger warnings and get napkins before reading.
A Little Life
Probabky my favorite of the three (definitely not because I remember it best🤭). A quick, easy and spicy romance, just like the other two.
Final Offer (Dreamland Billionaires, #3) by Lauren Asher
The end got me hooked, such intrigue, games and rising feelings in such a short book. Muah, chef's kiss.
The Ballad of Never After
I am an environmental sciences and protection graduate so this book wad right up my alley but it was also very beneficial with advise and ideas. So insightful and educational. If you have the chance I would definitely recommend reading it.
The Nature Fix: Why Nature Makes Us Happier
Another Sally Rooney, another great read. What else can I say.
Conversations with Friends by Sally Rooney
Literally finished this yesterday. Was slow at first but it got me hooked at the end. Just imagine if this was real, if something like that could happen to you or me?
The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V.E. Schwab
The trilogy is finished. ✨ So excited, I read this so fast, it was intriguing, exciting, so satisfying and beautiful. Definitely recommend reading all three of these, SO GOOD!!!
A Curse for True Love
