    Ferrero chocolate mentioned 🍫

    E infatti dicono che monsu Ferrero stia cercando di produrre un buon cioccolato economico, alla portata, che lo si possa comprare.

    rough translation: And in fact they say that Monsieur Ferrero is trying to produce a good, cheap chocolate, within everyone's reach, that people can buy.

  • Favorite myth?

    Alright y'all-I'm back on my mythological hyperfixation so what is your favorite myth (can be any culture) and which book retelling do you like best?

    L’infanzia – quello che ne restava – gli si contrasse nel petto mentre posava un piede dopo l’altro nella penombra.

    the writing style feels so cinematic, but also strangely sad? i'm a bit hesitant to know what's going to happen next ❤️‍🩹

    rough translation: Childhood – what was left of it – clenched in his chest as he placed one foot after the other in the dim light.

  • Queer Tennis Recs for a deprived soul? 👉👈

    Just putting my feelers out there… I have 30 Love by Tom Vellner on my radar, but that begs within me to explore the potential for more queer books that has tennis involved in some detrimental way. I’m not a huge sports romance reader by any means, but if I get hooked, line and sinker, this niche genre could very well become my personal Heated Rivalry. Appreciate you all!

  • Roman Empire… but make it books 🏛️🏺💭

    What’s your Roman Empire? Something bookish that lives rent free in your brain and is your go to conversation starter.

    Why has it stuck with you?

    historical fiction set in Italy at the end of nineteenth century. i loved how original the characters feel, especially the main character ofelia 🥹 there are little interludes about other characters, that give us a full view of life at that time, but they do slow a bit the pace of the story. the ending kinda surprised me, but at the same time it made sense? love how the feminist themes were intertwined into the story
