Unboxing Secret Project #4
Huh, I was really convinced that I had already written and posted this unboxing, but apparently not! Even though I already received my 4th secret project from Brandon Sanderson at the end of October, before I even got around to reading the book digitally, which was a first! Previously, I had always read and seen the book digitally before seeing…

On the go #9
I had hoped that if I planned to blog at least monthly about my works in progress, this would provide some kind of counterbalance to my eternal indecision and doubt, and therefore encourage me to make decisions a little faster. Unfortunately, I don’t really notice much change in my behaviour as of yet, so I’m afraid this is going to…

Book unhaul #1
You may know that a lot of new books constantly find their way to my bookshelves. Besides the number of booksubscriptions, I’m also not averse to simply buying books, be it online or in a brick and mortar store. I do have quite a bit of space on my bookshelves, but with the constant influx, this space is rapidly shrinking.…

First Law Along #5: The Heroes
With this second phase of the FirstLawAlong I feel less urgency to read on, since the next books are only marginally interlinked and can mainly be read as standalone books, albeit in the same world as the original trilogy with cameos from characters we’ve met before. It was a bit difficult to motivate myself to read this second standalone novel…

Reading journal September 2023
For my September reading journal I drew inspiration from different sources. It started with a sheet of stickers that I bought a while ago from 24papershop, when I was shopping for a new journal for next year’s reading journal. I already liked the stickers when I chose them from my computer screen, but in real life I was twice as…

Read in October 2023
October was Spookoplathon month and I managed to read all the books I had intended to read, with a couple of extra thrown in the mix. In total I read 10 books, good for 3691 pages. The average October book comes to 369 pages/book. It was a bit of an average month, with mostly good books, but also a few…

Lanzarote
Just over two weeks ago I went to Lanzarote with a friend for one last bit of sun. The plan was to make it a real walking holiday, and although we did walk a fair bit, it was still more leisurely than initially anticipated, mainly because the sun was just a little too enthusiastic at times! We took it pretty…

Happy Halloween
Havy a spooky cozy day! Cheers, Charlotte P.S.: we don’t really celebrate Halloween around here, but I’ve been wanting to put ghosty faces on this mushroom picture of last year since I first spotted these, so what better occasion than this!

Read in September 2023
September was a month without readathons, but I still had a pretty focused TBR. I wanted to finish a few outstanding series, continue reading in another series, participate in a book club and make progress with my Owlcrate project. And with this my reading month was quickly booked! In September I read a total of 8 books, good for 2707…

On the go #8
Slowly, a little too slowly for my liking, autumn is creeping into the land. Not so much the weather, but rather the shops radiate this. The mannequins are given warmer autumn fashion, coziness with candles and plaids is promoted and, for those stores that sell them, more and more woolen items are becoming available. I always enjoy looking at the…
Charlotte on crocheting, knitting, reading and such
