One simple thing you do? And it brings joy? You know my answer.
Describe one simple thing you do that brings joy to your life.
It might sound like that’s all, but hey, reading brings joy to my days. I do escape reality with them, and even if it is not a fantasy one, it still is better to go in and spent hours in it, although sometimes I can’t read for that long, unless I decide to set work aside and life, and everything because the plot is way too good to put my book down. 😆
Can you see my latest blog posts just fine? Lately it feels like the newest content is getting lost in translation, pun not intended, but speaking of which, the blog can be translated to other languages automatically.
Going back to the point, is it that I have posted too many bookish, miscellaneous, lists, and not enough book reviews? It has always been that way in this blog, that’s why I have tried to keep it all very organised with the pages, but do let me know if you’d like an extra layer of where to find the book reviews vs book challenges vs reviews on movies or TV Shows, because those are not as frequent but are also available on the Miscellaneous page here on the blog.
How about 9 Books to re-read? Because I have that list all set up and ready if you want book recommendations, you can check out that post on the blog.
But long story short, it is a variety of fantasy, romance, and young adult.
So, any Shadowhunter Novel and Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince are top in the re-reading list. Don’t be so shocked, if you spent some time here on the blog, you’ll see those worlds have a special place in it.
Have you ever wondered, what is Cinder The Lunar Chronicles about? I did before reading the book and now I can tell you what Cinder is about.
Hello, dearies! 👠
It’s Sunday! But I nearly forgot about today’s spoiler time, so for this Sunday I decided to go with Cinder, which is book 1 in The Lunar Chronicles saga (series).
Most of you might know or if you read the description of the book that this is a fairytale retelling of Cinderella. Yes, and there’s no spoiler in that, for context here is the description of Cinder.
How did 2023 went down for the blog? What did I post this year? What did I have to share with you all? From Jan to Dec is all here! 😊
Happy New Year, dearies! ✈️🎇🧨
First post of the year 2024! 📲📚
There were some exciting new developments in 2023. The Podcast: EachPage Flow, was officially launched. 9 Episodes are live now (when this was published). My YouTube channel is now available, too. Lots of travel vlogs from my Seoul first trip.
I started creating more content for TikTok, I hope you enjoy those as well.
But, this is about the blog, I know. So, what happened in the blog this year? I was surprised about it, looking back on the old posts, there was a lot.
Blog ReCap 2023
January
Nothing much happened in Jan 2023, I was planning a lot for the year. And I watched the movie Bubble.
February
Feb was about some good book challenges, I focused on the small town and UK setting for those book listings. And my thoughts of HP and The Half-Blood Prince came to life.
March
This month started with my love for book characters and because I remember how much I like Ginny Weasley. I continued my TBT and Flashback Friday specials. Gilmore Girls and Onyx (Lux Series) were featured.
April
I was in South Korea. But I still had some entries, maybe I was inspired by my trip. You can check some of it on my Travel VLog.
TBT for The Awakening (that is the first book in The Vampire Diaries series). And then I decided to list good books to get started with romance, fantasy, and mystery. I was feeling generous like that.
May
I finally finished reading The Keeper: A Stars Above Story, this is the first one (?) in the Stars Above compilation of stories for The Lunar Chronicles. Also in May, I watched Memories of the Alhambra and loved it!
And I finished reading The Lost Book of the White, that was something else. All Shadowhunter books are something else for me.
June
Mid-year and I read Lock Every Door, which was not my favourite to be honest. I did a special post for my Father’s Day. And dedicated time to Charmed, one of my all-time binge-watch comfort shows.
Oh, there was also the very special 10 Years of Blogging anniversary for me. Thank you again for being here.
July
Starting strong with A Game of Thrones Flashback. But also 50 Shades Darker flashback, that one was honest. This month I just talked about old reads, there was also The Secret Adversary and my final HP special with The Deathly Hallows.
I watched Love Again and talked about Patch Cipriano, dedicating a book characters entry to him because, have you read Hush Hush? He’s too much.
I did talk about Hush Hush on the Podcast.
October
I created my first book filter for TikTok. And because Halloween was around the corner, of course I did a Mystery book listing and an Autumn books special too. It was fun.
But the most important thing, I finished watching Fruits Basket (2019 Anime)for the first time and was completely in love with it. I still am, it’s great, so of course I read the Manga and watched the 2001 anime version, which I thought was insane and irrelevant.
I didn’t finish reading Dune in November, but I did post the review for it.
Also, I have a new filter on TikTok for Dystopian Books. A little challenge for book lovers there, in case you want to create new content for your booktok.
“He who hurries through life hurries to his grave.”
And that was my 2023 Blog Recap for EachPage, I hope you enjoyed this quick trip down memory lane, I certainly did because I didn’t think I’ll have as many entries and some months as I did. Although, I have been trying to publish more, but work and other social media keep me busy, as well as my writing. That’s another fun fact for September that I forgot, I published a new book: Behind the Tree Line.
That’s all, dearies! Thank you for sticking to the end and Happy New Year once more. 🎇
‘It was much pleasanter at home,’ thought poor Alice, ‘when one wasn’t always growing larger and smaller, and being ordered about by mice and rabbits. I almost wish I hadn’t gone down that rabbit-hole — and yet — and yet — it’s rather curious, you know, this sort of life! I do wonder what can have happened to me! When I used to read fairy-tales, I fancied that kind of thing never happened, and now here I am in the middle of one! There ought to be a book written about me, that there ought! And when I grow up, I’ll write one.’
“Don’t settle for what life gives you; make life better and build something.”
Wait what? It’s been 10 years since I decided to start blogging and rambling about books online?
It seems that’s the case.
10 Years ago, I chose a name and decided to put my thoughts out there in the world, and you know what happened? Nothing, I continued to do it just because it’s fun, and I love sharing books.
