Hey there, lovely readers! As I sit down to jot down my thoughts on starting this book blog, I can’t help but feel a surge of excitement. Today, on the 13th of July 2023, just a day before the grand launch of my website, I’m buzzing with enthusiasm. Nerves? Nah, not even a trace. It’s time to unleash my passion for writing and embark on this thrilling new venture.

Let me set the stage for you. Becoming an author was a dream I once chased, but hey, life had other plans for me. The corporate world swallowed me up, and though it provided financial stability, it left little room for creative pursuits. But fear not! I refuse to let that diminish my passion. Enter this blog, my creative outlet where I can finally let my writing shine. I dabbled in blogging before, even freelanced for a while, but life took me on a detour. Now, I’m reconnecting with my inner child, embracing this platform to share my love for reading and a glimpse into my life.

I could ramble on about the journey that led me here, but let’s save that for another post, shall we? Right now, I’m overflowing with joy, happiness, and uncontainable excitement. No expectations weigh me down; all I desire is to create a haven for fellow book lovers, cottage enthusiasts, and those who savor the slow-paced joys of life. Here’s to hoping this blog becomes a vibrant community where we can share our love for literature and celebrate the beauty of living intentionally.

But before I wrap up this check-in, let me leave you with a taste of literary brilliance. Brace yourself for my favorite quote from A Court of Silver Flames:
