『books』 #19for2019

I thought about doing this for a while and decided to try it. I decided to pick books that are sitting on my shelves for several years now, and I still haven't gotten to. When I listed the first book of a series it actually stands for the whole series/ trilogy. Some of these I was really excited about, some of these I only read the first book (can't remember much anymore) and never continued on. I really hope that this will help me to finally get to these books. 

『books』 Bookish Highlights of 2018

This isn't going to be an exact "Favourite Books of the Year" post, because I am certain I'm not able to decide on that. So I chose my highlights out of all 29 five star rates on goodreads. I read 71 books in 2018 and gave a five star rating to only 29 of them. But another 27 books got a four star rating on goodreads. I didn't really keep track on half star ratings, usually I write them down in the comment/ review section in goodreads. 

Let's enjoy the last 2018 related post. ~

『personal』 Highlights of 2018

The year is almost over and I thought I put out a few of my personal highlights of this year. 2018 was neither very good nor very bad to me. It was just there and I was just living along the lines. Nevertheless I had some very precious times I wouldn't like to miss.

These are (more or less) in chronological order.

『personal』 THINGS I NEVER TALK ABOUT

I'm still alive and I still intend on blogging, even with my long long absence. I just didn't feel like writing at all and I still feel very uncreative. I'm just a lost cause when it comes to consistency. That's why I decided to write about something else than usual. I decided, as the title already says, to write about the things I never talk about. I guess, I have a lot of these bundled up and sometimes they just need to go. I'm the person who always is willing to listen to everyone and everything, but actually never talks about anything. So I'll try and let some things go now.

Things that might be contained:

• feelings
• personal opinions
• me too
• just life in general

『blogmas』『BOOK TAG』Tis the Season

Originally created by RichardMediaGeek on Youtube


1. Do you have a favorite Winter read? 
I don't have a favourite read for any season. I just read what ever I want when ever I feel like it.
I choose books based on my mood not on any events, holidays or seasons.

『blogmas』『MOVIE EVENT』2017 / 10 / 12 ~ WE ARE X & YOSHIKI Q&A

12th October was the day of the screening. For me it was a rather long day. Had to get up early, went to work (luckily uni hadn't started yet), headed home to get something to eat and freshen up a bit. Afterwards I hurried to the cinema. Luckily it's only about a 15 minutes walk to the IMAX at Potsdamer Platz, where the screening took place.

『BOOK HAUL』DOUBLE STACKED

A combined book haul of the month's August and September.

『JULY BOOK HAUL』More new books for my overly full shleves~

Another month another book haul.

I don't know how I did it, but somehow I acquired nine printed books, six e-books and three audiobooks during July.

For August I want to try to not buy books, except I already pre-ordered them. I hope I can do this. The only thing I'm allowed to buy, except pre-orders are the next volumes in a Manga series, but only when they get released in the month, so no already released volumes, even though I don't own them yet.

Keep reading if you're interested in what I got in July.

『MOVIE REVIEW』TOKYO GHOUL LIVE ACTION

『JUNE BOOK HAUL + JULY TBR』Not that much as last month~

Another month passed and I'm still in my blogging slump. >.< Lately I'm using Instagram for my "blogging activities", but I hope as soon as this semester is over that I'll be back to blogging.
I have way too many thoughts on books, which I want to share.

As for that, I have a few reviews planned and I still want to get my book fair experience on here.

But so long I have another book haul. ~

『MAY BOOK HAUL』Where did all the books come from?

I was long gone, because I just didn't feel like posting. There is just so much to do for Uni this semester I don't even know how that happened. x_x

Nonetheless, I want to pick up blogging again and I though I'll show you all the books I acquired in May. So, May was my birthday month and I treated myself to some nice new books and also had some gift cards to spend.

Also I have a lot more planed and I'll definitely post about the book fair back in March. ~

『Buchvorstellung/ book review German』Shimotsuma Monogatrai – Kamikaze Girls

This is kind of a review, but it's only in German since I thought I post the writing project I did for school some years ago. I was writing a book review about one of my most favourite books. I just copied and pasted it into here and tried to section it in my usual way. I plan to do a whole new review on this in English someday when I re-read it for the millionth time. <3

Dies hier ist eher eine Buchvorstellung, als eine richtige Rezension und sie ist auch nur in Deutsch, obwohl es keine deutsche Übersetzung des Buches gibt. Diese Buchvorstellung war mal ein Teil meines "Kreativen Schreiben"-Kurses in der Schule und ich dachte ich teile es mal hier. Dazu ist es auch noch eins meiner absoluten Lieblingsbücher. Ich plane irgendwann mal, nach dem tausendsten Re-Read eine englische Rezension zu verfassen, aber das kann noch ein Weilchen dauern. <3

『Lolita Wardrobe』Main Pieces and a bit more

Today I have my Lolita wardrobe for you. Thought I do it as well. It's kind of a tradition in the Lolita Community to do it every January. Plus you get an overview of all your things you accumulated and can track how your style changed.

I also noticed that I own more Lolita clothes than I thought and I took me quite a while to take photos of all of them. Even though I know that I don't own as much as some other Lolitas do. How do they fit all of the clothes into their closet? I really don't know. XD" Also I'm only showing my main pieces, or what I see as a main piece. No head accessories or jewellery. I'm way too lazy to dig trough all of that. Also my jewellery is not exclusive Lolita, I wear it whenever I feel like it. I like to have a matching and planed through outfit to wear, even for "normal" days.
