Primăvară, iubirea vieții mele… unde ești, pe unde te-ai pierdut? Vine aprilie și eu m-am cam săturat de zăpadă, ghete și paltoane. Salutări, dragii mei! E frig și sunt mult prea mulți nori în fața soarelui (situație care sper să se schimbe în curând), dar m-am gândit că ar fi cazul să mă așez frumușel […]

What would happen if you were gone? Would we move on or slowly fade away like a dying sun? Would we still have memories, warm emotions… or sink tortured to our insanity’s deepest oceans? Would we still grip easily to rationality or be just phantoms, Shells of our former selves, cursed to live in a […]

Dragilor, a sosit și momentul să postez răspunsurile pentru un tag destul de drăguț, un joculeț pe care îl puteți… adopta în română sau într-o limbă străină. Nu-mi amintesc cui îi aparține ideea, dar eu îl preiau de pe blogul Alinei (Alina’s Bookish Hideout). Ar fi trebuit să postez acest tag cu ceva timp în […]

Hello, dear readers! I wrote this post because I have a special announcement for all of you. Since March 2017 I’ve created my own blog, entitled Alina’s Bookish Hideout, where I post old reviews and other book-related articles some of you have already read, but you will find new ones too. The main reasons why I decided to go solo were the need to make a change after […]

My lovelies, because I didn’t have the time to write a new book review – and because I can’t decide what book to present next – I thought that this would be a good time to use this tag I found on Funions. No, they are not the ones who actually created it, but it’s […]

I’m probably a bit late (I know I am), but I’ve finally read Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. It was… something. I’m still working on that review, I’ll upload it soon, but I felt like posting something else first. There are so many things JK Rowling said and wrote over the years, but I […]

I saw this tag on quite a few blogs before actually finding the original video (A Daydreamer’s Ramblings) and I was drawn to it because of the name. I was going to abandon it at first because I couldn’t think of titles which could fit certain points (and because so many people focus only on […]

Many worlds have I seen, On the roads to great adventures I have been. Many lives I have lived, In different atmospheres I have breathed. Countless worlds and lives I’ve seen lost, As goodwill and morality aside were tossed. I have witnessed heroes rise and smite cruelty incarnate down Treated with great respect, yet… as […]

A History of the Expatriate Writers in Paris That Made Up the Lost Generation Several months ago I wrote a Romanian review for Woody Allen’s film, Midnight in Paris, which is one of my favourite movies of all time. Due to this amazing film and also due to my fascination with the City of Lights, […]

Books and coffee… what’s not to like? I couldn’t ignore this tag, so, with coffee by my side and books around me, I took my laptop and wrote the titles which would go well with that perfect cup of coffee. Enjoy! Black: Name a series that’s tough to get into but has hardcore fans. The […]
