Book Tag. Mid-Year Freak Out Book Tag


How did time fly by so fast? 😱 I'm sure that just a few weeks ago, I was planning my bookish resolutions for 2019 and, now, here I'm looking back at the last six months to share with you some of my favourite (and not so favourite) readings. Welcome to the Mid-Year Freak Out Book Tag! I hope you're ready for lots of gushing, incoherent sentences and maybe some gifs. I don't know who created this tag (if you do know, please, share with me so that I give her/him credit), but I first saw it first on The Literary Phoenix. I immediately knew I had to join this tag. How could I ever pass up the chance of rambling about books?

Goodbye spring. Hello summer. 🌞 I'm not ready for the hot summer days since these always make me feel lethargic and sleepy, but, hopefully, this year will be different. Why? As you might have noticed, I haven't been much around the blogosphere and that's has something to do with some good news I mentioned a few weeks ago. If you want to know to reason of my absence just click on "Read more".

Ten Young Adult Retellings Coming Soon

The blog has been a little bit slow lately, but it's for a very good reason (I'll be sharing all about very soon). Because I didn't want my little corner to look like it's on hiatus, I compiled a  short list of YA retellings coming out in the second half of the year so that you can save money to get on day on the releasing day or to add some more pre-orders to your list. 😜 I confess I was expecting this list to be longer, but the second half of the year doesn't seem to have many retellings coming out.😢

Hello bookworms! How are you doing? I know, I know: long time, no see. Once again, life has been chaotic. However, this time, life has been chaotic in a good way. I spent the last three days attending a conference, as speaker and staff. It was busy and tumultuous and, in the end, I felt exhausted, but I got to meet an American professor/researcher that also studies YA dystopias and it was so exciting! 😄

Mental Health Awareness Month. Things I Do For Self Care


Thank you so much for all the support you're giving to my Mental Health Awareness articles. You've no idea how much it means to me. 💜 This will probably be my last post on the series, but I decided to discuss mental health and books in my blog a lot more, so I might share a few more posts in the future. Today I'm sharing things I do for self-care aka things I do to try to keep my mental health in shape

Welcome to another Sunday Post! This post comes later than usual, but for a very good reason: I've just added the final touches to my thesis and I'm about to send it for one last correction. 😄 *fingers crossed that I don't have to make any major changes and that I can start getting ready to defend it, even if just thinking about it gives me a panic attack*

ARC Review // Five Midnights

Author: Ann Dávila Cardinal
Publisher: Tor Teen
Published: June 4th 2019
Pages: 304 pages [Kindle edition]

Five friends cursed. Five deadly fates. Five nights of retribución.

If Lupe Dávila and Javier Utierre can survive each other’s company, together they can solve a series of grisly murders sweeping though Puerto Rico. But the clues lead them out of the real world and into the realm of myths and legends. And if they want to catch the killer, they'll have to step into the shadows to see what's lurking there—murderer, or monster?
