Can we say that I’m a pro at cheating when it comes to reading challenges? Because I feel like I am. And the worst or the best part of it is that I don’t feel guilty about it. Maybe a little bit embarrassed but in no way I feel really bad about it. At the end of the day, reading is a hobby...
It’s been a while since I read this book and I’ve been procrastinating to write this review –or write anything on the blog for that matter– so I don’t remember every single detail of the novel. Which might be good so there’s less opportunities for a spoiler to slip. Luckily, I took some notes after I finished so I’m going to base my...
Last year I participated in a challenge created by a group of women from booktube who had a very nice idea. They were going to read five books written during the Victorian era (that is from 1837 to 1901) and each one was going to have a specific characteristic chosen by each one of the challenge creators.

The other day, I started rambling on Instagram about expectations and how they affect us and our reading (in this case) experience and I thought I could talk in more depth in a blog post than in an Instagram caption. Let's be honest, it’s easier to write on a laptop keyboard than on the phone's one. The thought I started on that caption...
Ok, so after the announcement that I was going to write this blog in English now the next step is to actually write something and post stuff. So here we go. I thought I could start this new stage in The Snowy Owl by wrapping up the sad sad reading months that have been April and May. Ok, I'm being extra dramatic here...
Ok, so if you don't follow me on Instagram... First, you could. Click here, it's free and it will make me really happy. And secondly, this might come as a surprise. What's happening is that I'm changing the language of this blog into English. The reasons why? Well, let me make a quick list. 1. I read a lot of books in English....
