Here comes another review! I feel I've been writing plenty of them when it fact it is only the fourth! I've experienced a bit with the format of my reviews in March but now it's Lazy Saturday Review time! From Lipsyy : I started doing ‘lazy Saturday reviews’ as a way of getting reviews done…

#OrendaMonth The Team’s Tree: The Branches (part 1) @OrendaBooks

Now that we met the trunk of the Orenda Books team last week, it is time to take a look at its inspiring and diverse branches! Just like the Trunk team, authors and translators have been kind enough to give me 5 facts about them. You may wonder why I got this idea. Well, since…

This Week in Books (March 15th 2017)

#OrendaMonth The Team’s Tree: The Trunk + Giveaway Winner @OrendaBooks

I find Orenda Books' logo to be very inspiring, a tree and a bird... a sort of bird I am too silly to recognize. An eagle?? I am terrible at this but this is not point. I do see Orenda Books' company as a flamboyant tree which brings the Earth its best products. This is…

#OrendaMonth Book 2: Snowblind by Ragnar Jónasson @OrendaBooks @ragnarjo

It is time for the second review of the month! I struggled a lot with this one and I dug quite deep into my vocabulary for synonyms of cold 🤣 Who knew one of the most-talked about, fantastic Orenda Books best-sellers would leave me short of words? Title: Snowblind (Book 1 in the series) Author: Ragnar…

No, It’s Not YOU! A Guest Post by Thomas Enger #OrendaMonth @OrendaBooks @EngerThomas

A tag once asked me whether I preferred character-driven stories or plot-driven books. My answer was: a mix of both. You can have a mind-blowing plot ruined by bland characters as much as you can get the most amazing characters let down by the weak storyline. Still, there is one thing I need to truly enjoy…

Publish Me Not! Or How I Did Not Know a Thing about Publishers until I Started Blogging #OrendaMonth #Suntag?

I have a confession to make. Before I started blogging, I had no clue and no interest in knowing which company published what. For me, it was all about the book. I did not even care that much about the author's name, that tells you something! I was a seeker for stories, but I never…
