Recently I realised that I don't read much, which is annoying because I used to love reading but I guess I got sucked into a black hole of wifi and social media. But I have realised that I do have a few favourites that I've been loving lately as I try to read more (to be honest only one of these is actually a reading book but technically a book is anything with pages and words)
The Beginners Photography Guide : This book is absolutely amazing. Recently I've tried to develop my photography skills a lot more as I've realised it's something I really enjoy doing. This book is perfect, it has diagrams, examples, explanations about basically everything you could possibly do (as a beginner) with your digital camera. It has definitely helped me a lot so if you can get your hands on this, please do.
Emma Bridgewater Weekly To Do List Pad - I know, I know this isn't a book. But I've definitely been loving it. I don't usually like to do lists as I think they don't look particularly nice in my room, but this one has definitely changed my mind. It's a simple, clear design with navy stars and the paper is a lovely soft texture which makes it 10 times better.
Paper Towns : Yes I watched the film before I read the book (gasp) but I was leaving for Argentina so I didn't have much of a choice. Even though I know the plot of the story, this book has turned out to be a lot better than the film, since it goes into clearer details and explains things better which makes the whole thing more enjoyable. After The Fault In Our Stars, Looking for Alaska and Paper Towns; John Green never ceases to please. Also Cara is on the front cover so win win.
I hope you enjoyed this post, do you have / love any of these things?

I wish I had more time to read too but I am a workaholic so whenever I have a spare moment, I am usually doing work rather than relaxing and reading a good book. It's my goal this autumn and winter though to set aside some real me-time to do some reading. Looks like a nice selection - a book to help you learn some new things and a book to read for pleasure.

Thanks Rae, Yes, that was what I was going for because I'm not the kind of person who can just commit to one book, so I tend to do that because if I read 2 pleasure books then all the plots begin to twist together. You should definitely consider some me time, I'm quite a workaholic as well (studyaholic more like) but its always good to set aside some time for yourself :)

Hi dear! Thanks for stopping by my blog! I would find very helpful a book about photography like the one suggested here. I was reading what you said about Paper Towns and I noticed that you wrote something about coming to Argentina, and guess what? I'm from Argentina! But I don't live in Buenos Aires, I live in Salta (in the north) so if you ever want to visit this city just let me know ;)
ReplyDeleteLet's keep in touch dear!
