May Wrap Up

Hey there bookworms,

for the month of May, I decided to make a video wrap up. I read 10 books in May, among them several German review copies, some manuscripts for my publishing internship and many different genres. It was a very good and diverse reading month for me.

April Wrap Up

Hey there bookworms,

here's my April reading wrap up! A little late this time, but I've been super busy with my internship and with filming another video for booktube (in which I gush about the Netflix adaptation of Shadow and Bone, you can watch it here)! Still, April was a rather good reading month for me.

My Physical TBR

Hey there bookworms,

I filmed another booktube video and I'll probably do so more often again. I don't know if it's gonna become a regular thing because filming and editing is a lot of work, but I definitely had a lot of fun too. In today's video I'm showing you all the unread books on my shelves!

Top 5 Wednesday: Incorrect Ratings

Hey there bookworms,

to be fair, this post should be called "Top 5 Thursday" because I'm late. But I liked the topic so much I still wanted to post something! Incorrect Ratings is about books I've rated way higher of lower than the average goodreads rating. I chose to stick with books I rated lower because it just seemed easier.

March Wrap Up


Hey there bookworms,

I'm here today with my March reading wrap up! A little late, but better late than never. I only read 3 books in March, but my internship started so I've been quite busy in the last weeks. I intern at a small German publishing company, which means I get to proof read books (among other things)! It's the coolest thing ever. I'm gonna add the books I read there to my reading challenge of course, but not all of them are on goodreads since not all are out yet. Anyway, here's the books I "oficially" read in March!

Top 5 Wednesday: Well That Dragged

Hey there bookworms,

today's T5W topic is about books that dragged - be it because the pacing was off or because it just took me too long to read them for another reason, or simply books that went on longer than necessary. T5W is a weekly book blogging meme currently hosted by Alex (The Scribe Owl) in the official goodreads group!

There are a couple of well loved, popular books on my list, but as always, this is just my personal opinion and experience!

First Book Haul of 2021


Hey there bookworms,

I've been thinking about what other kinds of posts I could write on here, and then it hit me: Book Hauls! I haven't done one of these yet and since I already got a couple of new books since the year started, it's the perfect time to start with it. Here are all the books I bought since 2021 began!

Top 5 Wednesday: They Keep Telling Me Not To...

Hey there bookworms,

today's T5W topic is about the books on my tbr with the most beautiful covers. They keep telling us readers not to judge a book by its cover, but let's be honest, sometimes we can't stop doing it.
