Books + candy 😍
I find Tolkien's and Lewis' writing extremely similar! Dunno why that came as such a big surprise
I've never read the books and never watched the movies. Let's get started 🙃
I hate to get my hopes up about book adaptations, but this looks amazing!! 😮

I've been having trouble reading lately because I was so tired of every book I picked up. And then I decided to read this and was pleseantly surprised. Also, shame on me for never reading any literature from my own country. 😂
Happy Easter! I hope your reading plans for tbe weekend weren't ruined like mine were. At least I did get to eat lots of chocolate!!! 😄
Let us hear the suspicions. I will look after the proofs.
Had two of my wisdom teeth removed today. That means I get to spend my weekend resting, reading, and having lots of icecream! Anything for a speedy recovery 😋
I love when writers/musicians talk about the people and books that inspired them even though it's rarely something I'd read 😋
"You're also finding out something as you read that will be vitally important for making your way in this world: the world doesn't have to be like this. Things can be different".
I'm reading one chapter a day. Gaiman's words and thoughts will resonate with anyone who has a passion for books.
I've been looking for this poem for ages!!! I remembered the title but not the name of the author which made it impossible to find! Luckily, the author's website was lost somewhere in my browser's bookmarks folder. This poem is "Parallel Universes" by Kate Edwards. I couldn't fit the whole poem in the photo but you can read it here:

It was a placing of his destiny in another's hands, a shifting of the responsibilities of existence. This in itself was compensation, for it is always easier to lean upon another than to stand alone.
I felt like reading something darker and the weather delivered: it's cloudy and about to rain 💜
Half of this book is basically a dictionary 😂 There are over 200 hundred definitions counting all of the footnotes and honestly I find myself distracted by finding all those little numbers while trying to finish a sentence. 😥
I'm revisiting an old childhood favorite while I wait for my car to get ready. I bought and read this book as a kid because it had a wolf on the cover. 😂
According to the blurb on the back of the book, London committed himself to writing a 1000 words a day for 16 years!!
pickLoved it! Can't wait to watch the tv adaptation!
Because I'm telling you this story I will your existence. I tell, therefore you are.
You might even provide a Heaven for them. We need You for that. Hell we can make ourselves.
It's raining so hard I can't hear my thoughts. I thought rain was supposed to help set the mood for reading 😖
My first book of 2019! I always regretted pushing this book back in my tbr pile but now I see I couldn't have chosen a better time to start reading.
My year in books 😀 14 books and a total of 4307 pages! For some this may not be much, but for me it's way above my reading average!
I'm really hoping to finish this book before the year is over 😥 #slowreaderproblems
Merry Christmas!!! 🎄❤
so-soGreat writing and beautifully told. The way the author divided the story in different parts was very clever. Too bad I didn't like the main character and his friends. All of their moments together were just boring and forgetful.
It's not a big thing, but I guess it's true--big things are often just small things that are noticed.
Nothing, however, exits my mouth. How well do we really let ourselves know each other?
I'm so glad Rick Riordan finally shared his experience (and frustration!!) with the adaptation of the series. I think this applies to too many book adaptations and it seems that the studios will never learn.

Some original drawings/sketches and autographed editions were displayed too 🙆
Yesterday I spent my day immersed in the history of comics. I'm not a fan of comic books but I did enjoy revisiting so many characters from my childhood. And I also found out that Popeye got his name because he's pop-eyed 😵
Today I visited this fashion exhibition where the patterns of the clothes were revealed with the flash of your camera ?
The clothes were designed by Kunihiko Morinaga as part of the "A Light Un Light" exhibit
pickI'm so glad I reread this book after 10+ years! It was interesting to see things through Cristopher's mind and I think we could all learn from him.
Had to change my plans for Saturday night 👍
Prime numbers are what is left when you have taken all the patterns away. I think prime numbers are like life. They are very logical but you could never work out the rules, even if you spent all your time thinking about them.
pickThe review on the back of the book pretty much sums it up 😆 If you hate scifi as much as I do, then this book is for you 😊
Those who study the complex interplay of cause and effect in the history of the Universe say that this sort of thing is going on all the time, but that we are powerless to prevent it.
"It's just life" they say.
I only know as much about myself as my mind can work out under its current conditions. And its current conditions are not good.
This is obviously some strange usage of the word safe that I wasn't previously aware of.
I really liked the pattern of this bag and couldn't resist making some bookmarks 😄😛
This one started out great 😀 I'm not a fan of sci-fi, but I hope I'll end up liking this book anyway
