  Number of pages: 353 Rating: 3,5-4 ☆ /5  ☆ I really liked this book, it is the second retelling I read and I kinda like this type of books .)) Sincerely I had this book on my shelves since June, and I didnt know why i haven’t picked it up until now, I mean I was scared to read it because I heard and read mixed reviews about it, but now in august a book club in my country is/was reading this book.

The Goldfinch - Donna Tartt

  Number of pages: 1038 Rating: 5  ☆  /5☆ Has this monster became one of my ultimate favorite books of all time?! Yes, yes, yes!! Why?! Let me tell you.. I loved this book so so so much!!!! I read all the mixed reviews on goodreads, also online and I want to believe those people didn’t read it when it should be read, with a different mindset than the one for thrillers and fantasy. You need to be present with your mind, body and soul, to live along the action, and the characters for the book to be worth it!! And also need time to read it ,)  Definitely delighted my soul reading it!! So happy i found it!!  Synopsis -  Theo Decker, a thirteen teenager from New York, survives miraculously from an explosion which kills his mom in an art museum and he unwittingly take the possession of a little fascinating painting, his mother favorite. Eight years later, Theo works in an antique shop, and the carefully hidden  painting becomes unexpectedly the gate to ...

So, I didn’t plan reading this book because i didn’t know it exist .,/, but I looked on Holly Jackson’ s instagram and I was like.. THERE IS A 3RD BOOK?!?!?!? I was in shock until, I looked online on a Romanian bookstore and I found it, and also bought it. I calmed down and waited to receive it.. the day it came I read it…like I could not stop. I am still happy when I look at this book .) Now onto the review- I love this book so much and I am sad it is over .( I still can’t decide which one is my favorite from the series, but the battle is between the first one and this one. And seriously of anything i could ever imagine it will happen in the book after what it was written on the back of it, it didn’t happen. And I’m glad the action surprised me, but this time the killer- dead person d...

The Chalk Man - C. J. Tudor

  Number of pages: 283 Rating: 5☆/5☆ TW: abuse, blood, mental problems, nightmares, disgusting details  I will start this with a funny story :  I went to a bookstore two weeks ago and I wasn’t planning to buy this specific book, but I wanted another book which was not available, so I was looking through books from the same publisher as “The Chalk Man” and I saw it..👀  And I asked myself from where do I know this book, and then i remember  I’ve seen it on bookstagram at one of my favorites ( @martipaan 💚 thx ) and i wanted to buy it but i forgot about it until that day. Then of course i bought it and read it in the following week. .))  Now onto the review- I really loved this book, it got my attention so quickly that I read it in one sitting. It was my first book from this author, but definitely not the last!! I liked how the action was divided in two time periods:  1986 - where the crime happened and then 2016- the comeback. Throughout the book we se...

INTRODUCTION

Hello!!  As you probably know me (or don’t) from instagram ( @the.bookwiitch  ) I wanted to have a blog for such a long time.

My passions are reading, singing and painting. I started to like reading when I was 10 years old and from then I delight myself with books that changed my life completely. My favorite genre is thriller and some of my absolute favorites are: The silent patient (Alex Michaelides), The family upstairs (Lisa Jewell), The enigma of room 622 (Joel Dicker) and The Chestnut man (Soren Sveistrup).

Thought referring to books or personal ones. We have a long way ahead and I hope you will find this blog interesting, helpful and that will make...
