April Reveries – Moving forward!
April has been good to me. I’d spent the last two weeks of march visiting my mom and came back to Ecuador with a ton of books and stuff to keep myself busy! So, I’d very much describe it as a moving forward month. I think I’ve left my reading slump behind, and I’m trying to get back on track with my writing as well!

Is there such thing as too much bookishness in our lives?
‘It’s not that there are too many books. There isn’t enough shelf space’, ‘I live for books’, ‘Writing is my life’… These are all phrases we see in bookish merchandise, and we also like saying them. Because it’s true. Books are awesome. That’s we’re here, right?
But there is something to say about all things in excess having the potential to become bad.
Some of us have time management problems
Some of us get carried away. And you what, acknowleging it is healthy. I mention this first bec...

10 Read-Bait Things that Will Have Me Falling Over Myself to Get a Book
I love books, okay? I love stories in different shapes and sizes, but… There have always been certain concepts and details in stories that when I hear about them?
Hate to Love plots
This kind of stories are tricky because usually, we have the bad boy trope playing for it, and with it, the asshole trope. Because, how else can you get two people to hate each other but by making one a raging jerk? Not necessarily. There could be cultural differences, difficult pasts and other interesting c...

Mis Herramientas Favoritas para Escribir

No es nada exacto, pero hay cosas sin las cuales, honestamente no podría escribir. Siempre me han parecido muy útiles posts de otros bloggers hablando sobre sus programas para editar fotos preferidos u otros recursos que usan, así que hoy pensé en compartir mis herramientas para escribir.
¡Aquí van!

What Inspired You to Book Blog?
I’m pretty sure I’ve answered this question a couple of times before, for tags and maybe a Twitter chat or two. I don’t think I’ve ever really gotten very deep about it. But I want to. 3 years and some is not that long, but it is a feat for me, the kind of person who has been known to leave things unfinished (I’m sorry mom, some day I’ll finish that tulips cross-stitching thing I’ve been working on for the past six years). Anyway, we take breaks, we get burned out again, but we’re always t...
