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 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…

Stay At Home Book Tag

8. May 202020. July 20205 Comments

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

Comparing US and German Book Covers (Part 2)

23. April 202021. July 20204 Comments

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)

The Campfire Book Tag

17. April 202021. July 2020Leave a comment

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

My Least Favorite and Most Disappointing Books of 2019

28. March 20203. January 20211 Comment

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

My Favorite Books of 2019

26. March 20203. January 20211 Comment

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

My Least Favorite and Most Disappointing Books of 2018

17. February 20198. January 20211 Comment

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 … Continue reading My Least Favorite and Most Disappointing Books of 2018

My Favorite Books of 2018

16. February 20193. January 20211 Comment

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

It’s Finally Fall Book Tag

13. October 201821. July 2020Leave a comment

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

“Would You Rather” Book Tag

9. September 201821. July 2020Leave a comment

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

The Nope Book Tag

13. August 201821. July 2020Leave a comment

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

Mid-Year Book Freak Out Tag 2018

4. August 201821. July 2020Leave a comment

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

Comparing US and German Book Covers

16. June 201821. July 20201 Comment

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

Reading Habits Book Tag

19. May 201821. July 2020Leave a comment

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

My Bookish Pet Peeves

15. April 201821. July 20201 Comment

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

Fantasy Book Tag

8. April 20183. January 2021Leave a comment

It's time for another tag! This time, I thought I'd talk a bit more about the genre I probably read most of, since you can never have enough fantasy recommendations. While browsing the internet for a possible tag, I came across this one: the Fantasy Book Tag, which was originally created by Just Hannah Talking … Continue reading Fantasy Book Tag

25 Bookish Facts About Me

24. March 201824. October 20201 Comment

This blog has existed for quite some time now, so I thought it might be time to let you guys in on some additional facts about me 😉 Enjoy! Fact 1: I'm German, but when I was seven, my family moved to Tallahassee, Florida because my dad got a job at FSU. We moved back … Continue reading 25 Bookish Facts About Me

The Classics Book Tag

21. March 201821. July 2020Leave a comment

Although I haven't mentioned classics that often here yet, I do love reading them every once in a while, and I thought this tag was the perfect way to pay tribute to some of my favorites (or least favorites). This tag was originally created by It's a Books World, so here's a link to their … Continue reading The Classics Book Tag

Unpopular Opinions Book Tag

10. February 201821. July 2020Leave a comment

I don't think I've mentioned this before, but I actively (or passively, I guess, since I never post or comment on anything) follow BookTube, which is, for those that don't know, the YouTube community that deals with books. The Unpopular Opinions Book Tag is one of my absolute favorite tags to watch, so I thought I'd … Continue reading Unpopular Opinions Book Tag

My Least Favorite and Most Disappointing Books of 2017

3. February 20183. January 20212 Comments

You already got my favorites - but honestly, it's the least favorite books that everyone always enjoys hearing about the most. There's just a type of satisfaction you get from negative reviews and ranting about books that is hard to get from anything else. So that's what I'm going to give you. Just to clarify, … Continue reading My Least Favorite and Most Disappointing Books of 2017
