Hello! Welcome to my blog! My name is Gina.
Books have always been a great way for me to learn a little bit more about people. It is my primary means to explore various cultures and to see a place through the eyes of the writer. Sometimes they make me more curious. I would read most genre if it means knowing something about a people, a race, a place or a situation that allows me for a brief moment to either experience their world or perhaps understand them a bit better. I love stories written with settings that the writer can relate to. A good writer so vividly describes scenes that see you emerged right in the middle of them and I love that. The vivid description of places and situations is similar to watching images of a movie playing on the screen right before my eyes. I find that I have a bias towards books that relate to the day to day lives of people. On occasion though, I do enjoy some other genre – thrillers, mysteries and fantasy. When reality gets difficult or boring, I welcome the opportunity to lose myself in a writer’s wild imagination.
This is a book lover’s view on books I have personally read and book-related posts. I will share with you mostly cultural books. Perhaps on occasion I will throw in a review from a different genre. So, come along.
