There are authors who wrote a bestseller and their next books struggle to beat the high bar they set. There are authors whose best book is yet to come. Beth O‘Leary proves, with every book she wrote, that she is one of the latter.
If you like her previous books, you will love this one!

I‘m here to remind you that Beth O‘Leary new book publication date is coming closer and closer (29/04/21) and if you still haven‘t read her previous two amazing books - now is the perfect time to fix that mistake!

It‘s Sunday and I‘m here to remind you of this book.
Why it is perfect for your Sunday read?
📖It‘s short and easy to read in one sitting.
📖 It will take you to another world and make you forget for a few hours that Monday is coming.
📖 Being short and fast reading it can help you boost your reading challenge. (I‘m currently 6 books behind the schedule according to GR 🙈)

I‘ve just started Mirrorland. Has someone already read it? I know that its publication date is in April, I‘ve got an ARC from Netgalley. There were lots of marketing campaigns about the book, it even has its own IG page 🤯
I‘m around 20% and have no clue what‘s going on! Does it become better? I‘m struggling to get involved with the plot. 😐
What a great book! My boy is entertaining himself and hope I will be able to finish it before he got bored with his walker. 😅
Daniela Petrova, like me, is a Bulgarian. You won‘t believe how amazed I was when I saw a book that is receiving so much hype, with Bulgarian name perching on the bottom of its cover. I had the chance to meet her and have a chat. She is so lovely! People like her make me feel proud that I‘m Bulgarian and the book it is so good in the same time I can‘t recommend it enough!

Simply brilliant!
It is everything you can want from a book. It is witty, it is quite a good mystery and it is sad from time to time. I laugh (probably in some really inappropriate places), I cried because of Nadia fate, and the whole book kept me on the edge of my chair all the time. Bonus – it didn‘t fail in surprising you all the time till the end.
This book doesn‘t deserve a bright or colourful picture. Because it‘s so dark and terrifying you can barely stand reading it without crying. It‘s not the light summer read I‘m going to recommend to everyone. But it‘s a must-read book. I couldn‘t stop thinking about it a whole week after I finished it.

Meet the new member of our family- Presley! 🐈😍I‘ve been waiting for 3 years to be able to adopt a cat! In the very moment I had this Mr. Fluffy Butt handed over me I couldn‘t help myself and cried like a baby, and continue to cry during the whole way back home. I couldn‘t believe I have a cat! 🐱 Probably there are not enough words to describe how I‘m feeling right now. ❤️
Who doesn't like a book about books, bookworm, and love? Right, nobody! Meet Nina Hill and her bookish life:

Hey, hey 😊
Does someone know why I can‘t see my followers in my notifications? It is so strange because I actually do have followers but they don‘t show in notifications. Any ideas? Xx

I loved the book so much, I don‘t think there are enough words to explain. I finished it in two sittings and then reread it, but this time slowly, enjoying the style and mystery of the book. I was blown away by how brilliantly written this book is.
Hi there! I‘ve been MIA lately because I‘m so occupied with uni and final exams.
I am back and have new review in my blog. Go and check it.

It is a negative review, I know and I'm so sorry about. I put a lot of expectations over this book and really wanted to like it, but it left me disappointed. It does have a beautiful cover, tho.

Hi, can somebody tell me which character is this. Thanks! ❤️

Many thanks to Readers First and Hot Key Books for providing me with ARC of this book.
The book opens with typical high-school drama. In addition, we can supplement money and rich, spoiled kids.Yeah, sounds like typical YA drama. But we are expecting dystopian Sci-Fi, aren‘t we? I enjoyed the book although it‘s not what I expected.
Hey, hey! How is your weekend going so far?
I had an intention ti go for a ride with my bike but it‘s raining elephants and it emerged to be raining the whole weekend.
So I‘m stuck home with hubby and this fluffy buddy for company. 😸
What are you reading this weekend? Or what are you planning to read?
This is a debut novel by the author and it is absolutely stunning. It is a story about love, friendship, family, and time-traveling, of course. What are the possibilities in front of you if you go back in time with a chance to alter the future? I had everything I want from a book – I laugh, I cry, got mad and annoyed. Liked it so much!

*SCREAMING* 🤩🤩🤩
I‘ve just received the ARC I won on Readers First. It is my first physical ARC and I‘m so excited, I can‘t stop smiling and jumping around. What a great ending of the week! 🌻🌻🌻
I received the copy of this book via NatGalley and this is my first touch to Sarah Pinborough work and I can say, I enjoyed this book. It is kind of messy, but it ends up kind of well after all.

I hate to write negative reviews.. But ‘I Owe you One‘ kind of disappointed me.
The story was so naive and stereotyped. A girl idealizes her childhood love and thinks she still loves him. Then, she meets a handsome stranger and fells in love with him. Then, they are together out of blue, then, they are not, and at the end they are back together.
A bit behind schedule but here is my February wrap up. ⭐️

I‘m Bulgarian and on first of March we celebrate Baba Marta Day. We put martenitsas on out wrists or little dolls made from red and white yarn.
This year instead of sending to all of my friends the usual pictures took from Google, I made my own kind of red and white martenitsa.
I just wanted to share this tradition of ours with you, guys! Happy weekend! ❤️⚪️🔴

I felt in love with this story of Peter Pan and Tinker Bell. It is NOT retelling of the Peter Pan story, but still it won my heart.
The author provides us with a great spectrum of emotion – love, hate, fear, sadness and happiness. Characters are so true and alive, everybody can step in their shoes. But there is magic. You can feel it soaked into the whole book
I can‘t describe the emotions this book brings me. I cried, I laughed. Hugged this book so tight.

I read 4 of Hoover‘s book. She definitely has a writing pattern. I do like her characters. They always go to adventure to gain a self esteem. As a principle, her plots are full of twists. Books are easygoing. Even though her plots are more or less the same, I liked her writing style. More you can find here:

Hi, can you suggest a app in which I can keep track on the books I have? I tried BookBuddy, My Book List and Books. But all of them allow me to add limited number of books and after that I have to upgrade to premium. I don‘t think that this kind of app deserves £.99 per month for subscription. I‘m looking for something free in which I can add as much books as I want. Thank you! Xx
P.S. I forgot. It should be for iOS, not for Android.
I have something like a tradition of buying books from every place I visit. This is not my first book bought from Chester because this town is one of my favourite places for walks. Today the weather was great like yesterday (around 13 degrees) and with my fiancé took a trip to this town and walked around.
I achieved nearly 8k steps! #LitsyWalkers
I‘m not a #LitsyWalker but weather today was awesome! Near 13 degrees in the midst of February. I went out with my rollerblades and enjoyed the sun while listening to ‘The Kiss Thief‘
Happy Love Day! Here I collect some of my favourite quotes about love.

If you are not celebrating - good! I've always preferred a bottle (or two) of good wine than man!
Here are three reasons you might want to read Steven Erikson‘s book:

Hi, guys. What‘s your weekend read?
I decided to grab this book by Jennifer Niven because it stayed for so long on my bookshelf. I read her previous book ‘All the Bright Places‘ couple of years ago and I loved it, so I don‘t know why I still haven‘t read this one. I believe I will enjoy it. Fingers crossed.
So what are you going to read this weekend?
I finished it wast night in one sitting. I haven‘t read Romance books since I was in high school, so the book brought me back to my teenage years. 😁
Liked the plot and the story author tells. But I have such a strange feeling that I have read something similar before. I felt a deja vu from the moment Ben leaves the box with his script in front of Fallon‘s door. Like I read this book before, or maybe I read a passage from it. I can‘t remember. :(
Hi, there! Hope your weekend is going well.
I have a question: as I‘m not a native English speaker, I‘m looking for improving my English and my vocabulary, in particular.
I‘m open for offers and suggestions, and I‘ll be so grateful for the help!
P.S. I am living in English-speaking country, use English in my everyday life - chatting, reading mails and etc. Also I‘m reading in English a lot. Mark new words, but still feel like I‘m not good enough.
Here is my #February #TBR list. Like I said, I am going to do Romance readathon! 😅 Although, it‘s not my genre, I do enjoy some romantic books. I‘m quite behind the new releases. Everybody around me is so hyped about Collen Hoover‘s books, I feel ashamed I haven‘t read a sentence from her. I hope, I‘ll catch up.
This is my #LitsyAtoZ TBR list, as well. Here I have books for letters: A, C, H, K, N, O, P, T and U.

Hi, there. It is 1st of #February and I have a new post for you. This is the month of #love, so here are some of my favourite romantic novels. At the end of the post you can find my #TBR for the month. Hope you will enjoy reading it. ❤️

Life has an expiry date, like everything does. But nobody know how long this period is, also it is completely personal, so there is no universal date for all of us. But what if you know the exact day of your death? How you might live your life if you knew?
