I blinked for a second, and now it’s another month that has gone by! In March, I went back to Spain for a minor nose surgery, and I stayed with my parents for a week while I recovered. I returned to rainy England in time to see the Spring blooming. We’re already three months into … More March 2024 book wrap up
Growing up in sunny and too-warm Spain, autumn was my favourite season, followed by winter. I would eagerly wait for the endless summer to end, desperately hoping for cold air and the turning of the leaves. But when I moved to England, I discovered spring. A real spring, the one you see in movies and … More Spring 2024 mood board: books and bucket list
How is it possible that my mind is still in 2023 time, but somehow, we’re already two months into 2024? How does this make sense? It’s March 1st while I’m finishing this post, and even with an extra day in February, this year is going by really fast, but I’m excited for spring. I can … More February 2024 book wrap up
Welcome to my first book wrap-up of 2024! One of my resolutions this year is to write a wrap each month for the next 12 months, which I’ve never been able to do because I get tired or run out of time at the end of the month, and I always end up skipping some months. … More January 2024 book wrap up
Welcome to my first post of 2024! It’s a sunny January morning while I’m writing this entry. Everything outside is frozen and wet, the air cold with strong winds, and my red scarf flies all around me whenever I go outside to get some January sun on me. I love this weather, those rare windows … More My Bookish & Reading Goals For 2024
This year, I read 84 books, my original goal was 85, but I didn’t make it to the finish line. Goodreads says that I’ve read 29,055 pages, so yay! My average book length was 345 pages, with A Court of Wings and Ruin being my longest book, with 703 pages. … More My favourite 23 books of 2023
It’s incredible to think that September is already over. I’m currently in Spain, visiting my family for a while and staying at my parents’ house. I’ve gone from the gloomy and rainy cold weather in England to the hot and sunny Spain. If you’ve been on this blog before, then you’ll know I prefer the … More September 2023 book wrap up
There are a lot of ways to celebrate the autumn and Halloween season. For me, I like to take long walks around the park when the leaves are changing and collect cute pumpkins in multiple colours and shapes. I love trying out new recipes with seasonal items, and I hoard pumpkin spice candles as much as the next girl, but one thing I always do is spend my evenings watching autumnal and Halloween movies. … More Autumn and Halloween movie calendar for October
Depending on where you live, autumn might have already started to show its colours. For me, it’s been this past week that the leaves have turned, and the air has gotten colder. The days are shorter, and the streets are decorated with leaves in the warmest colours. Red, orange, yellow and brown stand out against … More Autumn 2023 bucket list: Books, activities, and aesthetics
Last month, while browsing the magazine aisle in my local M&S, the new issue of Love Embroidery caught my eye. It had a stunning white pumpkin hoop on the cover, and I knew I had to get it.
