⭑.ᐟ — BOOK REVIEW

welcome to the hyunam-dong bookshop by hwang bo-reum

— RATING: 9/10 • GENRE: fiction • TW: grief

— THOUGHTS: i absolutely loved the book. it was an easy read and the plot was predictable but in a comforting manner. this book felt like a cosy and a warm read. all the characters were relatable and felt representative of different hardships one person goes through. the growth of the characters was evident as the plot progressed. by the end of the book, it felt as if we have seen the characters grow and bloom in front us and along with us. each chapter left me thinking and retrospective of the moral and learnings. the main character, yeongju, represented most of us by having a dream of opening a bookshop. the book ended on a high note, leaving us with an experience of growth and change. i would definitely read this book again <3

does anyone else immediately lose interest in a book when there's a romantic subplot or is that just me

rainy days, oversized sweaters, the good book & a cup of tea, that’s all.

the constant not-so-inexplicable fear of losing my favorite media which is now online which can only be calmed if I have an offline downloaded or a physical copy of it. because sites can crash, streaming websites can remove or change their catalog, archives can get shut down and people can just delete their data from websites. and what will i be then without an archive of the media that defines me? is it just me?

Learn to write through reading

Apart from writing lots and often, there is no better way to improve your writing than through the act of reading.

Read a lot, and read widely. Learning from others is the best way to grow as a writer.

"it's literally just a book" okay, and? I don't see your point.
