  • An einem regnerischen Tag findet ihr mich mit einem guten Buch und einer Tasse Tee vor dem Fenster. Ich bin eine lesebeigeisterte Studentin, welche einen kleinen Bookstagram Account (@bookishdancingqueens) und Blog (https://selinareads.wordpress.com) betreibt. Schaut doch vorbei, es würde mich freuen. ^^

    Richtig tolle Verlosung, wäre gerade perfekt für meinen Geburtstag im April. 🤭

  • FlakiM yes I think an instagram bookclub would be good. What is your account?

    • Raikaslover haha I feel you 😂 mine is like that as well but I am pretty good right now about bringing it down bits by bits

    • Raikaslover I really liked the first Alice book by Christina Henry; also Lost Boy by her is great: gave my the chills

      • Lor I am not sure if it’s horror or more thriller but “Sharp Objects” gave me the creeps hahah

        • Llyrian I am soooo much a moodreader myself and can completely relate. 🙂 I just read SoC and looooved it! I read SaB but there was just something missing, which I did not feel with SoC.

        • FlakiM Tea is simply the best 😉 sure, it is a tool, and works like a website. You can plan and organize everything how you want to. For me it functions as a life planner with a a calendar or uni deadlines. I also summarize my lectures there. It is very helpful because you can do a ton with it! Drop down menus, new pages, tables, reminders, calendars, write code, etc. It is never ending. I can really recommend it!

          PS: at first it seems kind of intimidating but there are a good amount of tutorials or templates to start with ^^

        • FlakiM Hi, I am Selina and mostly read in English, except the author is German. My genres are all over the place 😂 I love a good mystery, thriller and crime but also fancy romance, fantasy, YA and NA. I keep track on goodreads (https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/62531880-selina) but also have a small library page on Notion, which I tried to make artsy and aesthetically pleasing. Besides book I love music, fall walks, rainy days, and a good cup of tea. If anyone wants to become friends and talk about books I am always in. 🙋🏼‍♀️

          • Habe dieses Buch schon gesehen im Buchladen und fand die Sportakademie Idee neu und interessant aber glaube alles andere wäre es nicht mein Buch. Das hat mich mit deiner Reiz nochmals bestätigt.

          • This novel is about a female chemist in the 1960s. This already sparked my interests and it being a bestseller put my hopes up. Thankfully it did not disappoint and would give it 4.5 ⭐️. I enjoyed the story line and plot very much, the writing style is easy to follow and reads itself smoothly. I am in STEM myself and therefore liked the setting a great deal. Although I really liked this book, there are a few things that bugged me:
            - in my opinion not all scientists call the things by their scientific name (I am not yet a scientist but getting there😂). For instance calling salt sodium chloride while cooking. It seemed to me a bit „stereotypical“
            - Almost every other women in this book is put in a bad light. They are simply minded, catty,… the same goes for men, they are almost all portrayed as being misogynistic
            - To me this was not a „laugh-out-loud funny“ novel as described on the cover but more quite a sad story from time to time (I will not spoiler).🙈 Sure there are some „funnier“ scenes but I thought the description was a bit misleading
            Other than that, and these are just my personal opinions, I am really fond of this book and will recommend it nonetheless. It is a good read and gives a clear message, which is still relevant!

            Fourth Wing, the Hobbit, Lessons in Chemistry,… meine Liste mit tollen Büchern dieses Jahr hört gar nicht mehr auf . AAAbbbbeeeerrrr Gameshow Band 2 von Franzi Kopka “takes the cake”. Kann dieses Buch nur empfehlen, denn es ist toll!!!

          • Ein ganz klares Jahreshighlight für mich. Das Debüt von Franziska konnte mich völlig überzeugen und ich muss so schnell wie möglich den zweiten Band lesen und wissen was geschieht. Der Cliffhanger am Ende….. 😳😱Der Schreibstil ist flüssig und man taucht schnell in die Geschichte ein. Ausserdem fand ich es toll, Elemente aus geliebten Reihen wie „Divergent“, „Maze Runner“ und natürlich „Hunger Games“ zu finde. Die Romantik hat keinen grossen Platz im Band eingenommen, deshalb frage ich mich wie es mit Jax und Cass weitergehen wird. Ausserdem hatte ich am Ende noch ein paar offene Fragen, welche hoffentlich im Folgeband beantwortet werden. Mein Dystopie-liebendes-Herz ist glücklich.🥰
