Sunday Post. Hello Autumn, Goodbye September

Sunday Post is a meme hosted by Caffeinated Book Reviews.

Hello Autumn. Goodbye September. Let Halloween begin! 👻 I'd like to start today's Sunday Post by thanking to everyone who sent me encouraging and comforting messages - Nicci, Evelina, Sam, Becky, AJ, Samantha, Brittany and Nicole. Thank you for taking your time to read my depressing post. Your kind words and support meant a lot. 💕 Some days are better than the others, but slowly I'll recover from this bad place I've fallen in.

And the Books Came Tumbling Down. Autumn Reads

Cozy nights wrapped around a fluffy blanket, drinking a warm tea and reading a good book with a cat (or two) sleeping on my feet screams Autumn perfection to me. I believe this is the favourite reading season for many bookworms. After all, this is the ideal season for reading long stories with intricate plots and enthralling worlds. It's a season for mysteries, ghosts and nightmarish monsters, and all the magical places that give anyone a bad case of wanderlust. Well, I guess I live in the Autumn all year long. To celebrate the arrival of this magical season, today I'm sharing with you some books that I believe to be perfect Autumn reads.

Sunday Post. Hidden Gems, Deadly Bees and Gloomy Days

Sunday Post is a meme hosted by Caffeinated Book Reviews.
Another week flies. Soon September will be over and Halloween will be upon us (would anyone be interested in joining a Halloween book bingo? Also, would anyone be interested in a book tag inspired by Spyro?). Anyway, this has been a terrible week for me. I'm sure you're tired of reading about my gloomy mood and I'm so sorry about it. I've no strength (physical and mental) to do anything. All I want is to curl with a blanket around me and a book and forget everything.

TTT. Hidden Gems aka Books That Deserve More Love

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl.

It's time for another Top Ten Tuesday. This week is about hidden gems aka books that deserve so much more love, but weren't talked much when first published or marketed as strongly as they should or published by a famous publishing house (maybe it's just me, but it seems that if a book isn't published by a well-known publishing company -for example, Penguin or Bloomsbury- it's difficult for the book to make it on the market. I know small publishing houses don't have much money to spend on marketing, but I feel some readers have a few prejudices concerning them). Anyway, it's time to show you my hidden gems.

Review & Blog Tour. Keeper of the Bees

 
Welcome to Keeper of the Bees Blog Tour. I still can't believe I'm part of it (I really thought I had no chances of being chosen). I also still can't believe that I received an early copy of this beautifully eerie story that reminded me so much of Beauty and the Beast (Pintip Dunn was right). Scroll down to read my review and don't forget to join the Giveaway (it's US only, sorry guys).

Sunday Post. It Is Bookish Sorcery!

Sunday Post is a meme hosted by Caffeinated Book Reviews.

My blog hasn't been active. I haven't visited any blogs for the past weeks. I just have been feeling o mentally exhausted, you know? And it isn't something that I can say aloud very often because... PEOPLE (and I feel I've been pushing away those who are close to me because of all these feelings). No wonder I rather live among books and cats... Can't life be less complicated? Less chaotic? Less stressful? Less disappointing? *goes watch To All the Boy's I've Loved Before once again*
