I think book tags are a great way to get book recommendations and also to get to know the person behind the blog a little better! I’ve done several different ones by now, so I hope you can find one that suits your interests :) I also include my yearly favorites and least favorites in this category – they’re a popular thing to talk about in the new year, so that’s kind of like a tag, right?
Hi everyone! I was nominated for the Sunshine Blogger Award by the lovely Emer over at A Little Haze Book Blog - thank you so much!! 😊 Anyway, if you aren't already following her, I highly recommend you go do it now, because she's one of the kindest and most amazing people in this community!! … Continue reading The Sunshine Blogger Award
Since the summer solstice was only a few days ago, I think that I can safely say that we're pretty much exactly at the mid-year mark. Which makes it the prefect time for the Mid-Year Book Freak Out Tag! I feel like this is such a fun way to reflect on the books I read … Continue reading Mid-Year Book Freak Out Tag 2020
Hi everyone! I hope you've had a good week! I thought we would try something a little bit different today 😉 All my American friends are always commenting on how Europeans apparently use way too many emojis, but guys: Emojis are awesome! Sometimes you can express so much more through them than you could using … Continue reading Can You Guess the Book from the Emojis?
Hi everyone! Today I'm here with another tag! I was tagged to do the Stuck at Home Book Tag by Abi @ The Knights Who Say Book, and if you haven't checked out her blog yet, I highly recommend you do. She's amazing, and I'm always struck by the eloquence of her posts! Anyway, thanks … Continue reading Stuck at Home Book Tag
Hi everyone! I actually thought that the next post you'd be getting from me would be my review for The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, but since my preordered copy STILL hasn't arrived, I guess that'll have to wait 😪 Ah, the benefits of living in the middle of nowhere in a non-English-speaking country... However, … Continue reading Book Spine Poetry
Hi guys! I hope you've had a good week! I actually started mine having to pay 7€ in library fees - something that came as a bit of a shock since I've never returned anything late in my life before now... But, in my defense, the university library originally said that it would let us … Continue reading If You Liked This Book, You Might Also Like…
Hi everyone - I hope quarantining is still going well! Personally, while I liked all the extra free time at first, I can't wait for things to return to normal now that the new semester has started. Online university just isn't my cup of tea... Still, I really like getting to spend more time with … Continue reading Stay At Home Book Tag
Happy World Book Day, everyone! Today we're going to be talking about something rather superficial - but what book nerd doesn't love a good cover? Compared to the story a book contains, it might not really matter much, but no one can deny the alluring power of a good cover in a bookshop, or how … Continue reading Comparing US and German Book Covers (Part 2)
It's been ages since I did a tag, so this post is long overdue! And this tag, created by Jaded Reader, is actually quite fitting - with the quarantine going on, my family and I have been doing a lot of yard work, and we've been making bonfires in the evenings to burn all of … Continue reading The Campfire Book Tag
I guess the good part about having read less in 2019 is that I also didn't read as many things that I didn't like - these lists turned out quite short this time around! As in previous years, I'll be starting out with the books I didn't like at all, and then continue with my … Continue reading My Least Favorite and Most Disappointing Books of 2019
Better late than never, I guess 😉 In a way, you have the coronavirus to thank for finally getting this post, since I now have plenty of introvert time to dedicate to this blog. I hope you and your families are also healthy, safe, and not too bored! It took me forever to narrow this … Continue reading My Favorite Books of 2019
Since I already posted my list of favorites, I bet you're not that surprised to now be getting my least favorite books of the year. Thankfully, I actually didn't read that many books I didn't like this year, so this is going to be a rather short list. Like last year, I'll be starting with … Continue reading My Least Favorite and Most Disappointing Books of 2018
I know, I know – I’m a bit late posting this, since it’s already the middle of February…. I’ve been so busy studying for psychology lately that I didn’t get around to writing anything, but better late than never, right? I read a lot of books I really liked in 2018, so narrowing this down … Continue reading My Favorite Books of 2018
I handed in my term paper! *Does celebratory dance*. That means I have one weekend before university starts again, which means I can get some blogging and reading done 🙂 Anyway, it's turned pretty cold here in Germany. I have to wear a jacket when I go outside, the leaves are starting to turn yellow, … Continue reading It’s Finally Fall Book Tag
I felt like doing a tag today and since my siblings and I were recently playing "Would you rather," I thought, why not this one? The tag was originally created by Rachel and Katie from RaKaBooks - here's a link to their video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tcZFaBgg7xw. It's probably not gonna get anywhere near as dirty as it … Continue reading “Would You Rather” Book Tag
It's time to get a bit more controversial around here again - things have been quite calm lately! So in order to spread a few more of my unpopular opinions, I've got the Nope Book Tag for you. This was originally created by A Booktube Book, so make sure to check out her original video … Continue reading The Nope Book Tag
We might be a little past the mid-year mark already, but we're still close enough to the middle of the year that I don't feel bad at all about posting this now 😉 The Mid-Year Book Freak Out Tag was created by Chami at IsThatChami (original video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=03gz6k0IB-Y) and Ely at Earl Grey Books … Continue reading Mid-Year Book Freak Out Tag 2018
We all know the saying "Don't judge a book by its cover," and while most of us will probably agree that it's the content that matters, book covers are not completely irrelevant either. If I'm in a bookstore and browsing for something new, I'm not going to pick up a book that has a very … Continue reading Comparing US and German Book Covers
It's time for another tag! Again, I stole it from booktube, but unfortunately, the original video is no longer available, so I can't link it for you. Still, I hope you enjoy finding out some more things about me 😉 1. Do you have a certain place at home for reading? Yes, definitely - 99.99% … Continue reading Reading Habits Book Tag
University started again this week and university means homework, which is basically my way of saying that I'm drowning in it. Honestly, if you want free time, don't study math (but math is awesome, so maybe you still should 😉 ). Anyway, the homework situation means that I don't have much time to blog, so … Continue reading My Bookish Pet Peeves
