📖 Avis de lecture 📖
.
Ce que les étoiles doivent à la nuit de Anne-Gaëlle Huon @editionsalbinmichel
.
💭Comme prévu, ce livre est devenu un vrai coup de cœur ❤️
Je ne savais pas que c’était la suite d’un autre livre de l’autrice, mais pour être honnête, je n’ai pas eu de difficulté à suivre l’histoire, puisqu’il met en avant un autre personnage principal.

J’ai beaucoup aimé les différents points de vue, ainsi que les timelines alternatives. Cette histoire est vraiment émouvante, entre les hauts et les bas que traversent Liz et les autres personnages de « Ce que les étoiles doivent à la nuit ».

Je ne voulais même pas que cette belle histoire s’arrête, tant j’ai aimé découvrir le parcours de Liz et la voir évoluer ✨

Dommage que je n’aie pas pu goûter ce qu’elle a préparé tout au long de l’histoire 😜

📚Newest bookish addition 📚
.
Hello Bookstagram 🥰 I’ve recently finished a book in the Shadowhunterworld by Cassandra Clare and I absolutely want to keep up with this series. Seriously, why did I start so late with my journey?! Shame on me!
.
But to redeem myself in my own eyes, I’ve bought another book in the series. This is more of a companion novel and I’m so thrilled to read it (hopefully) soon 🤭
.
📖 Book featured:
- The Bane Chronicles by @cassandraclare1 @sarahreesbrennan @maureenjohnsonbooks @simonandschuster

Happy Sunday Booksta! 🥰

Today I had to go to work and to treat myself after I bought these 2 French books who couldn’t be more opposed. One is a non-fiction (self-help book) and the other one is a New Adult book. So they have nothing in common! And I’m so excited to start them ☺️

Hello Bookstagram 🥰 (🇩🇪 only)
.
Ich hab gestern dieses ganz tolle Kinderbuch fertig gelesen und bin sehr zufrieden mit dem ersten Band einer Reihe über Drachen.
.
Ich war ja schon immer ein riesen Fan von Drachen und so konnte ich einfach nicht anders als mir dieses Buch bei Kindle Unlimited auszuleihen.
.
Die geheime Drachenschule liest sich sehr schnell und sehr schön gemachte Illustrationen befinden sich ebenfalls auf manchen Seiten.
Wir folgen in dieser Geschichte Henry, welcher bis dato noch nie an Drachen geglaubt hat. Doch auf einmal soll er ein Drachenreiter sein. So befindet sich Henry sehr schnell auf der Insel Sieben Feuer, wo sich die geheime Drachenschule befinden soll. Henry kann es kaum glauben, als er seinen ersten Drachen in echt sieht. Nur schade, dass sein Drache ihn irgendwie nicht akzeptieren möchte. Wird Henry es schaffen das Verrtrauen seines Drachens für sich zu gewinnen ?
.
💭 - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

🎉2025 recap🎉

2025 was a mixed bag. Reading wasn't on point, but at least I have memories that I will remember forever 🥰.

After facing tough times with 2 losses in my family, we celebrated life with my wedding. Now I'm looking forward to 2026, hoping it'll be the year I dive back into books 🙈 and enjoy some well-deserved calm after no more wedding planning.

My TBR is ready and waiting 😂

Happy New Year everyone 🥳🥳

Hello, Bookstagram 🥰 how are we doing today?
.
I finished “This Book Kills” by Ravena Guron yesterday, and it’s been a thrilling journey.
.
This story follows Jess, a scholarship student at a prestigious school. A mysterious murder has happened on the school grounds, and unfortunately for Jess, she wrote a murder story before the student’s death, and everything she wrote down has happened to the murdered student. Now she becomes the murderer's target, will she manage to find the real killer before something terrible happens again?
.
I have to say that even though I managed to deduce the real killer early enough, the suspense stayed until the epilogue, and I still found myself engrossed by the storytelling. I enjoyed Guron’s writing style, and this will not be my last book from this author. If you like YA mystery with twists and turns, you must try “This Book Kills”. It’s worth it! 🥰

Hi Booksta 🥰
.
I’ve started to enjoy cozy mysteries these past few years and I must say that “The Thursday Murder Club” by Richard Osman has become my favorite one so far. It was really entertaining to see these elderly people solving a murder case with real professionals whilst being a tad bit more intelligent than the detectives. I couldn’t even say who my favorite character was because the members of the club were all very loveable 🥰
.
Osman managed to make me feel at home with his book and I can’t wait to start the next book in this series! Now I just need to decide whether I’m continuing it in German or in English.

Good evening Bookstagram! 🥰
Today is my stop in the “Hatchet Girls” Blog Tour and I’ve already posted on my blog (link in bio)
.
I’ve really enjoyed this book and because I’ve been obsessed with the Lizzie Borden Files, it’s no surprise that I liked the setting of this book.
.
Synopsis:

For fans of Kara Thomas and Courtney Summers comes a supernatural horror that reminds us family can be our saving grace–or our biggest curse. Set one-hundred years after the Borden murders, this propulsive thriller imagines what a similar trial might look like today.

When the parents of the richest family in Fall River are found murdered by axe, the town is quick to blame newcomer Vik. It doesn’t help that he was caught standing over the bodies with blood on his hands and can’t remember anything about the night in question.

But Vik’s sister, Tessa, knows that Vik would never be capable of such a gruesome crime. Haunted by the mistakes she made that led her family to Fall River in the first place, she sets out to prove her brother’s innocence.

Her search for answers will lead her into a sprawling, supposedly cursed forest, as well as the childhood home of Lizzie Borden—the original axe murderess of Fall River.

Content Warning: Violence, mentions of murder, blood, grief, abuse

My rating 💭
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
