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…

Reading journal August 2023
August was the month of the magical readathon and for my reading journal I was inspired by a spread I made in April for the Alchemy quest. Now, the inspiration didn’t really go much further than wanting to use the same purple paper, since I had decided that I wanted to work with purple in August. Because of the paper…

The Broken Binding – TBB for writing ease – is an independent bookshop in the UK, specializing in Fantasy and Sci-Fi and often selling…

Read in August 2023
August was the month of the Autumn Equinox of the magical readathon, an event that usually causes me to read a lot of books. This time, due to circumstances, I was less involved than in other years, but still managed to pass my required exams, plus extra! In August I also read significantly smaller books, in between gigantic ones. I…

October TBR: Becca’s Spookoplathon 2023
Ever since 2020, I have been participating in Becca‘s monthlong readathon based on the well-known Monopoly board game. For this purpose, Becca makes her own version of the Monopoly board, specifically for picking the books you will read that month. This year, however, there was no September bookoplathon announcement, which was to be expected given Becca’s busy schedule for September.…

Reading journal July 2023
A while ago I bought some sticker sheets with a constellation theme. I really liked the colours and the figures were cute, so I wanted to use it in a reading journal theme. And in July I did just that! The heavenly theme really came together when I found this beautiful picture on Pinterest. Unfortunately it doesn’t say who made…
