A translator in love with words, images and music. I love when a book makes me work to understand its meaning. 🌈
If you also had a horrible day, like I had today. This is for you. Whoever and wherever you are.
I hope it put a smile on your face.

Not a care in the world.

Simba and Peppi have a new brother... Bailey. Our family is bigger again. I'm sure he will love to read with me. 🥰🌈

Have you read this series? I enjoyed the first two novels very much and I am about to jump into A Game of Deceit and Desire. I know it's gonna be 🔥🔥🔥 like the predecessors.

Ashley Herring Blake has outdone herself with Iris Kelly Doesn't Date. The romance in it! I just finished reading the last page and I feel like I'm love drunk. My eyes are literally heart shaped. I love the whole Bright Falls series so much. This book wooed me!

If you see me in any of your thoughts, hug me. Because I miss you.

This is so beautiful.

After reading The Wrong McElroy, last night I went on a hunt for more of KL Hughes books and this short story is available for free on @ylva-publishing.bsky.social and it's amazing! I wish KL Hughes would come back. Ps. If you know where I can buy Lessons in Lessening: Poems, please let me know!

Cuteness overload! I truly enjoyed it and the direction of the story kept suprising me. Got me several times!

It felt like drinking hot chocolate in front of a fireplace, with a warm blanket.

All the good feelings.

Kayla is adorable 😍

👇 Read it!

When you book a room with a queen-size bed instead of a king-size.

Dangling paws 🐾

I care deeply for my besties... and always wish them the best.

After all, 🔥🌈 dreams are the best 🤷🏻‍♀️

I know, Simba...
I also just want to keep on reading Art of The Chase by Jennifer Giacalone, and find out if they catch the thief. First book we read with Dutch and Italian main characters! Firenze and Amsterdam?! I know! But if we don't work we can't buy more books!

How sadly true....

Although, Rhythm is a dancer by SNAP! is a great song when you're cleaning. Cheers 🍹

Going to work as slowly as I can to enjoy this. The sky in The Netherlands is breathtaking. It makes you hope for better days ahead.

The number 10 was a small room. The number 10 was a spring where the sun almost left me. Years later, the number 10 is a reminder that when you touch the bottom and think you're done, you can still rise from your ashes. But you need help. Don't keep it all inside. It's your right to feel better. 🌈
