On this Bookshelf of Hours!

　ღ ℬibliophile˛
A soul gathering pages like treasures, finding solace in the rustle of paper,
　bound in the silent embrace of a book ̒s spine.
⸻insight of past reads. (taste may be all over the place!, sorry in advance)

Carmilla, J. Sheridan Le Fanu˛　Before Dracula there was Carmilla, a sickening yet sensual; door opener to vampirism. What struck me most was her persona’s complexity—a symbol of forbidden love and the struggles of female identity in a repressive society, ★★★☆☆.

Dead Poets Society, N.H. Kleinbaum˛　 ‘Take me to the lakes where all the poets went to die’—; perhaps how the book has made me feel. Even if written after, it struck a chord—by exploring the tension between conformity and individuality in a conservative boarding school, ★★★★☆.

On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous, Ocean Vuong˛　This book will break you, put your pieces back; together and, well... eventually break you again. It’s an experience that lingers long after you’ve turned the last page—a reminder of the power of language, ★★★★☆ (and another half–star).

The End of Loneliness, Benedict Wells˛　I paused it so many times to reflect on its complexity; it’s; a really deep, character-driven narrative which delves into heavy topics. The ending, in particular, left me with a bittersweet feeling—loneliness is indeed a part of the human experience, ★★★★★.

The Lover, Marguerite Duras˛　‘Very early in my life it was too late. It was already too late when I; was eighteen’—it was all I needed. The characters are nameless. It’s confusing at times, quite disturbing—the cultural and racial tensions, but it’s unflinching and honest, ★★★★☆.
The Lover, Marguerite Duras˛　‘Very early in my life it was too late. It was already too late when I
A Certain Hunger, Chelsea Summers˛　I wouldn’t say I believe in the glorification of cannibalism; and murder, but for the shock value—I truly support women’s rights but more importantly, I support women’s wrongs. Dorothy’s exploration of female desire made me devour it in one sitting, ★★★★☆.

The Portrait of a Mirror, Natasha Joukovsky˛　Her writing is so lyrical that I found myself getting; lost in her descriptions—I highly think there is a specific audience for this book, however I enjoyed it. A mix of serious food for thought about how we perceive ourselves and others, ★★★☆☆.

White Oleander, Janet Fitch˛　A classic. If you’re into books that dive deep into emotions and; family dynamics, it’s the right choice. The exploration of Astrid’s relationship with her mother, even from behind bars, did it for me. One of the most beautiful and raw pieces I’ve read, ★★★★★.
White Oleander, Janet Fitch˛　A classic. If you’re into books that dive deep into emotions and
The Goldfinch, Donna Tartt˛　I’ve been conflincted about this one. It wasn’t necessarily what I; expected, some parts could’ve been trimmed, but Theo’s journey kept me going—watching him navigate the ups and downs, along the messy bond he had with Boris... An okay–ish read, ★★★☆☆.
The Goldfinch, Donna Tartt˛　I’ve been conflincted about this one. It wasn’t necessarily what I
My Dark Vanessa, Kate E. Russell˛　Vanessa’s layered and flawed—the way the author handles; the themes of manipulation and self–deception is haunting—a hard read, really triggering and heavy, but exploring quite well the gray areas of consent, trauma and memory, ★★★★★.
My Dark Vanessa, Kate E. Russell˛　Vanessa’s layered and flawed—the way the author handles
The Swan Thieves, Elizabeth Kostova˛　There were beautiful moments, but the pacing and not; being able to fully connect with Marlow or Robert Oliver held it back for me. I’d recommend it if you love slow–burn literary fiction, but be prepared for a lot of introspection and less action, ★★★☆☆
The Swan Thieves, Elizabeth Kostova˛　There were beautiful moments, but the pacing and not
Women Without Men, Shahrnush Parsipur˛　It’s a feminist classic, but if you plan on reading; it, you should check TWs if needed. Raw and powerful stories—repression, freedom and identity are beautifully handled—there’s a strange hopefulness in the way women come together, ★★★★☆.

Când vad aceste cărți aici și după ma uit la ce citesc eu... cred ca încă s un copil în fantasy urile mele pline de smut.... când unii oameni citesc cărți cu un mare impact....

Să ştii că şi eu am citit o mulţime de genuri până să îmi dau seama ce e pe gustul meu cu adevărat. No judgement zone, fiecare citeşte ce îi face plăcere. ღ
Voi posta review-uri şi pentru unele mai light!
