About

Enchanté, and welcome to my blog dedicated to the books I love. 

If you are looking for a place to get some inspiration, this is it. I hope to inspire you to turn a new page, to step out of your comfort zone or to start reading all together. 

I am a true admirer of the written word and I own a huge variety of books: fiction and non-fiction, books about history, philosophy or fantasy. Books about other cultures, Africa, Latin America and the Middle East. Study related books, about cultural anthropology, children’s rights, violence and conflict. Books in English and in Dutch, scientific books, children’s novels, chicklit, and the more serious stuff.

In sum, I have a house full of books, but not enough place to store them. This does not stop me from continuing to buy books, in the bookstore, through internet, on fleamarkets...

In my livingroom I share a threefold bookcase with my roommate. The shelves are filled with my most inspiring books, my study books and some of the books I urgently need to read. My other books lay either covered with dust in my bedroom or are neatly put away in my parent’s house.

On this blog I will talk about all the books I read and have read, especially my favourite ones, I try to capture their sphere in pictures, music and words, and I highlight the quotes that most stood out to me. Please feel free to comment and follow my blog. I might surprise some readers now and then with a copy of my favourite books!
