If he could learn to love another, and earn her love in return by the time the last petal fell, then the spell would be broken. If not, he would be doomed to remain a beast for all time. As the years passed, he fell into despair and lost all hope. For who could ever […]

I’m almost sure that many of you love C. S. Lewis’ fantasy book series The Chronicles of Narnia, so I wanted to surprise you with my review for the second book: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. I don’t own a copy of the book, but I found an audiobook on YouTube, which came […]

“Stories are the wildest things of all. Stories chase and bite and hunt. -…- Stories are wild creatures. When you let them loose, who knows what havoc they might wreak?”. This is the most heart-breaking story I’ve ever read. And trust me, there have been quite a few before this one. It won’t be a […]

You guys know that I love Harry Potter– related things (at least I hope you do) and I love books… and book tags. So it wasn’t difficult for me to pick this one as a post on eLitere. You can find the video on youtube, on BangadyBangz (I don’t know who created the tag). Could […]

Alina tagged me last week and I finally had the time to think about some book-related firsts. Except I chose to go with an English version of the tag, for those who do not speak Romanian. And because I simply wanted to have this tag written in two languages on eLitere. Once you’re done reading […]

What do you think stories are for? -…- I think they’re a way for us to understand our own world. -…- I think I gave Henry the book just to give him what no one around here seems to have. A new feeling. The feeling of hope. (chapter 1) If you watch Once Upon a […]

“Careful the wish you make/ Wishes are children./ Careful the path they take/ Wishes come true, not free.” I’m not sure if I am a fan of musicals. I mean, I usually love the songs I find, but it’s not often that I am patient enough to watch the whole thing. I knew of Into […]

Alina answered the questions from a similar tag (A Song Title Book Tag) back in May, so I thought… why not add a new one? If you want to watch the original video, go to BrunetteBibliophile. I love the fact that this tag comes with Disney songs – hence the name – and the connection between music […]

Why? Because I love Rumplestiltskin and I absolutely adore Belle. Because canon is great (up to a certain point), but the story left untold, the one we are invited to discover through hints dropped here and there, from interviews and the point of view of other characters… it’s so beautiful that it made me want […]

If you haven’t seen Heart of Gold, the eighteenth episode from season four of Once Upon a Time… go watch it, the next one’s already around the corner. But be careful, my lovelies. It might not affect you more than just another episode from a random series. Or you might find some scenes disturbing. I […]
