As I have mentioned in previous posts I have been reading The Interestings by Meg Wolitzer for an English-language book club that meets every month in Berlin. I’d never heard of this book before I saw it was this month’s selection for the book club, nor had I heard of Meg Wolitzer but I decided to give […]
The Innocent By Ian McEwan Review
As you know from my previous reading list post I was trying to get through The Innocent by Ian McEwan. I started it and quickly got through the first 100 pages or so, but then it began to lag and I was struggling to keep going, however it did really pick up and I finished the rest […]
Reading Goals For 2016
I’ve not been too great about keeping up on the blog with all of the books I’ve been reading, but I haven’t felt super compelled since I haven’t come across any fantastic ones I felt like sharing. However, I feel very ambitions this year and would like to branch out and read some books I’ve […]

Peril At End House by Agatha Christie
It’s been a while since I did a book review, but that’s not because I haven’t been reading. On the contrary, I’ve been devouring books at such an absurd rate that I forget to even write the reviews! I like to read, what can I say. I’ve been on a bit of an Agatha Christie […]
NYX Retractable Eyeliner
I haven’t done a beauty post in a while because, if I’m being honest, nothing was setting my world on fire, but now that I’ve tried this amazing (and affordable) eyeliner, I can’t not share it. I’ve used the same mediocre eyeliner for years. Literally I think it was the first eyeliner I ever bought […]
Books vs. E-Readers
I know I’ve been really bad about writing recently and for that I apologize. I know a few of you have reached out about it, but between traveling and trying to figure out where this blog was going, my posts took a back seat for a while. I appreciate you all sticking with me and […]
