Olivia's blogging journey began in 2016 with a simple yet powerful motive: to enhance her reading habits and document her thoughts on each book she delved into. As a platform for self-reflection and literary exploration, the blog provided Olivia with an avenue to immerse herself in books.
Olivia is a multilingual whose first languages are German and French. In her late 30s, she loves cooking and trains her two adorable dogs. While occasionally indulging in gaming, Olivia strives to strike a balance, ensuring her passion for reading remains unimpeded Television also holds a place in her heart, adding to her diverse array of interests.
Amidst her packed schedule, Olivia finds time for physical activities such as running, biking, and geocaching. She also finds solace in board games and climbing, a testament to her wide-ranging hobbies. Balancing her numerous passions proves a challenge, as the clock never stretches far enough to accommodate them all.
Olivia's rating system reflects her opinions. Two hearts do not indicate a book's inferior quality but rather that it didn't resonate with her as strongly as others. The three-heart rating is typically given to books she enjoyed or acknowledged for their importance and craftsmanship, without necessarily being completely enamored with them. On rare occasions, a book earns the coveted five-star rating, reserved for those exceptional literary gems that beckon her to revisit their pages time and time again.
With transparency at the forefront, Olivia indicates whether she received a book in exchange for a review in each blog post. Otherwise, the books she discusses have been acquired through personal purchases, her girlfriend's contributions, or borrowing from the local library; each experience adds to her reading journey.
