Seven Book-to-Series Adaptations I'd Love to Watch

Last week, it was reported that Netflix bought the rights of fifty literary projects. This book-buying spree includes Shadow and Bone and Six of Crows, both set in the Grishaverse created by Leigh Bardugo and several novels written by Roald Dahl. I'm not always fond of when books are turned into television adaptations, may it be TV series or films, because there's always something missing or the characters and the settings are too different from how I pictured them in my mind. However, today I'm pushing my doubts and fears aside and I'm sharing with you seven books I'd love to be turned into television series.

Sunday Post. Happy Easter!

Hello book lovers. How are you doing? 😊 Since I'm almost done with my thesis, I decided to give myself an indulgent week. But those are not only the good news. As I told you before, I'm going through a blogging slump. To battle my lack of will to write and create content, I sat in front of my laptop and forced myself to do it. Not saying the slump is over, but I did share some new posts!

The Most Delicious Book Tag. The Pancake Book Tag

I've a confession to make: I never ate pancakes. I tried to bake them many times, but there's always something wrong with the batter or then it gets stuck on the skillet. However, I could not pass up the opportunity to take part in this delicious book tag created by Becky @  Blogs of a Bookaholic. I mean, how could I ignore an opportunity to drool at yummy pancakes and ramble about books? 🥞

Disclaimer: This book tag may leave you craving for pancakes.

Is This Novel Young Adult?

Disclaim: As someone who reads mostly young adult novels, I have no prejudices against this literature. In a matter of fact, I'm a huge advocate of this literary category (it features characters and plots as complex as those in novels marketed for adults and deserves to be recognized by the critics).

Last weekend, I finished my reading of Our Dark Stars by Audrey Grey and Krystal Wade. While I was writing a short review on Goodreads, I noticed that some reviewers mentioned that the novel was young adult. It was confusing and surprising because, even though there was no smut, the novel features some sexually-charged interactions and the main male character was in his early twenties. This was not the first time I came across such a situation. I'm always left bewildered by how books that I don't read as young adult are placed in this category. As any blogger going through a blogging slump, I thought that this topic had the potential for an interesting discussion. Today, I'm asking myself (and to everyone who reads this article) what makes a novel young adult.

Book Tag. Disney Book Tag

As I mentioned in my last Sunday Post, I'm going through a blogging slump. After listening to some advices and wise words from other lovely bloggers, I began my search for book tags. I saw the Disney Book Tag for the first time on Bec&Bones and I saved it on my drafts to jong it later. I guess "later" is finally now. I won't lie, I worked on this tag for over a week (damn you, blogging slump), but I did it. Ps. I published this post last night by accident (it was not even complete), so to all the subscribers who received an e-mail, I'm so sorry. 

Sunday Post. Blogging Slump

Hi book lovers. How is everyone doing? 😊 Me? I'm fine. Keeping myself busy with my thesis and working on some new designs. However, I'm in a blogging slump. I've no clue about what I want to write (and I haven't been reading that much to write reviews). If this has ever happened to you, what do you do to get out of a blogging slump?

Reading & Blogging Challenges. First Quarter Update

I can't believe the first three months of the year have already come and go. They weren't really good months for me, but I hate to see time going by so fast. I want to do a thousand different things and I'm already freaking out over the fact that there will be no time to do them. *takes a deep breath* In the past three months, I've been slowly going through the challenges I decided to join. I haven't read as much as I expected to, but, hopefully, I'll get a lot more involved in these challenges in the next months. If you are part of any of the challenges mentioned bellow, let me know. 😊
