  • Your first book and the book that got you into reading (how did you encounter them/it?)🌀

    My first ever book was "Emily Windsnap" by Liz Kessler. But for some odd reason, it wasn't really my favourite and made me hate books cause I got forced to read it. I found it when I was at school and they brought a bunch of books that we could order from a bookstore. I saw it and I got interested cause at that time I loved mermaids and anything connected to the ocean. (I still love the ocean). Later on, I realised I didn't like reading in my native language which is greek, and I stopped for a really long time. I then finished the book in the next summer, cause my phone kept dying and I had nothing else to do at my grandma's house. As I said this book wasn't the one for me and didn't get me into reading. The one that actually actually got me into reading, is "Percy Jackson the Sea of Monsters" by Rick Riordan. I LOVED the PJO series SO MUCH and after watching it I really wanted the books. So on a random birthday party, where it was happening at a mall, my friend had told me she saw Percy Jackson books in the book section of a store. So we went there and I got the book! Sadly though I had a really huge reading slump, while reading it. But I finished it eventually and realised I actually liked reading books! So I told my mom I wanted to go get 2 new books and got "Circe" by Madeline Miller and "Once Upon a broken heart" by Stephanie Garber. And boom my whole book love started. So moral of the story is theres always a book out there for everyone no matter what. Just don't give up and you'll eventually find your favourite type of genre in a book! ⚜

  • How do you pull yourself away from PB? Or are you not supposed to ever?

    It's been a couple of weeks for me now. The addiction is getting quite out of hand.

    The symptoms? -a quick peak turns to two hours -can't stop staring at your new avatar, I even have that same top! -endless yapping -forgetting to eat -when did I last use the ladies'? Yesterday?

    I have tried everything: -walks (takes a quick peak while walking, see point above) -begging friends to join PB -other hobbies. Can't remember what they are anymore. Something about collecting dolphin shaped rocks? Not sure. -low and behold, actual reading.

    Is anyone else in the grips of this and is there a known cure? What have I gotten myself into?
