Hi there!I'm Carmen. I go by she/her pronouns and I'm currently twenty-one (but really, I really really don't want to 'adult' yet). I haven't got much of an idea of where I'm going in life yet, but I'm seeing where school takes me and hopefully one day I'll find out.I've moved on a little from my tumblr days, though I still like to revisit this blog every now and then. I used to go by the username 'bookishleaves' but I've changed from who I was when I chose that username, and I think it's time this blog reflected that. For a while now, I've neglected reading, but I'm hoping to get back into it and to post new reviews again. Thank you to those who have stuck with this blog, to those who have still liked my 'revamping my blog' posts every time (I have a lot of them and I never seem to be able to follow through). Whether it's because I just happened to reblog pretty book photos, or you just never bothered to unfollow a relatively unactive blog anymore, thank you. This blog gave me a place to hide all those years ago and I'm grateful for those who were interested in what I had to say. From this point onward, it's more likely that this blog will just be a personal collection of book reviews for my own reference, but you are always welcome to message me or comment on my posts about your favourite books.Updated July 2018

Day 9 - Cozy Reading Time
Cuddles with my kitten and Rainbow Rowell is probably the best way to spend this rainy day.

Lunches, lattes and reading with the best friend at Finches. If you’re ever in Vancouver, I can’t recommend this little sandwich cafe more! With gorgeous wooden tables, delicate flowers, antiques all over the walls and sandwiches to die for, it’s atmospheric, delicious and adorable. And one of my favourite places to be! . (at Finches)
