August 2023 book wrap up

August 31, 2023

I’m celebrating in my head because we’re so close to autumn. I can already feel it; the air is getting colder, some leaves are turning, and I’m starting to see Halloween products in some shops. But with the summer ending, one of my favourite shows ended too. Nancy Drew ended too soon, leaving me sad … More August 2023 book wrap up

July 2023 book wrap up

July 30, 2023

July has been my most productive reading month this year so far, I read nine books, and I think it’s primarily thanks to the weather. While most of the world was going through record-breaking heatwaves, in England, we’ve had 31 days of non-stop rain and cold wind. With this autumnal atmosphere, I’ve spent most of … More July 2023 book wrap up

Bookish diary: Using a street library

July 23, 2023

Last October, I moved out of the city centre where I had lived for the past four years and settled 25 mins away in the “people in their 30s town”. Besides it being full of local shops and following the three-bakeries-per-street rule, this small town seems to be a place made for book lovers. There … More Bookish diary: Using a street library

A bookish mid-year review

June 30, 2023

It’s the end of June, which means we’ve gone through half of this year already. Time is going by so fast. January feels like years ago, although, so does May. The summer months are here, and I’m trying to remember what I did during winter and spring, but it’s all a blur. As a bookish … More A bookish mid-year review

Craftpod 2023 Summer box

June 25, 2023

After twenty-eight years on this planet, I’m still shocked every time summer starts, especially in England. It always comes as a surprise. It’s cold and windy one day, and the next, it’s so hot, and the sun is shining so bright that my autumn heart stops beating for a second, sad and already tired of … More Craftpod 2023 Summer box

A tiny spring mushroom cross-stitch

May 8, 2023

One of my favourite pastimes after a long day is putting on a tv show in the background while scrolling through Pinterest looking for free cross-stitch templates. I’ve collected many tiny templates, but taking the time to cross-stitch them is a different story. … More A tiny spring mushroom cross-stitch

April 2023 book wrap up

April 30, 2023

April has gone by shockingly fast. I read 6 and a half books, the half being The Climate Book by Greta Thunberg, which I’m still tackling, I’m learning a lot, but it’s also so depressing I have to take a break after every few essays. … More April 2023 book wrap up

March 19, 2023

When I was planning my spring moodboard, two books came to mind, both by Rachel Griffin. Her books always explore magic with nature, creating worlds where witches are tied to the natural elements. … More My Spring Moodboard, Bucket List And Books

February 28, 2023

One of my New Year resolutions was to write monthly book wrap ups again, as I did in 2021. And yet I already missed the January deadline, so I’m forcing myself to do it now along with February. … More January and February 2023 book wrap up
