Review: Sabina Štrubelj- Hotel Lavanda

Slika
Končno sem po dolgem času v roke vzela knjigo slovenske avtorice. Po vseh odličnih ocenah Hotela Lavande pisateljice Sabine Štrubelj sem se odločila, da jo le preberem. Lahka romanca govori o Valentini, ki ima službo z odlično plačo, fanta odvetnika in ljubečo družino. Vse je popolno, skorajda preveč popolno, zato se nekega dne njeno življenje sesuje v prah. Fant ji pove, da jo že dve leti vara z drugo, v službi pa jo odpustijo. Ampak Valentina je skorajda pozabila na majhnega francoskega odvetnika, ki je pred nekaj dnevi trkal na njena vrata in ji sporočil novico, da je od neznanega francoskega sorodnika podedovala hotel v Provansi. Po njenem mini živčnem zlomu se le odpravi v Provanso in njeno življenje začne dobivati smisel. Odkrivati začne lepote Provanse, ureja svoj hotel, spozna veliko zanimivih ljudi ter predvsem odkrije, zakaj ji je ta neznani francoz zapustil hotel. Poleg vseh dogodivščin pa le spozna ljubezen svojega življenja in odkrije kopico skrivnosti. Knjiga je p...

Skrivnostni božiček

Veseli december je moj najljubši mesec. In ker zelo rada obdarujem in razveseljujem ljudi, sem se odločila, da bom sodelovala v Knjigoljubkinem projektu Skrivnostni božiček. :) Namen akcije je, da se med seboj obdarimo v vrednosti 10€ ter si tako polepšamo praznične dni. V petek, 22.12. pa smo vse darila tudi odprle, pofotografirale in se veselile. Sama sem se zelo zabavala med izbiranjem in nakupovanjem daril za Majo iz bloga Maja's Muffin . Vir fotografij: Maja's Muffin instagram Med odpiranjem svojega darila sem bila izjemno navdušena, še posebno zaradi knjige. Tanja mi je poslala izjemno darilo s svojo najljubšo knjigo in drugimi malenkostmi, najlepše pa mi je bilo njeno sporočilce. Organizatorka Knjigoljubka Maja bo tudi na svojem blogu objavila povzetek te luštne akcije, tako da jo spremljaj! :) Lepe praznike,

Lea Jerančič- Preko vseh meja

Slika
Zdravo! Spet se vračam s tako imenovanimi "review-ji". Tokrat je na vrsti ocena knjige slovenske pisateljice Lee Jerančič z naslovom Preko vseh meja. Knjiga govori o Nii Price, ki je plesalka na drogu. Prijateljica jo prijavi na šov talentov in tako začne živeti drugačno življenje. Hkrati pa ji glavo zmeša postaven in šarmanten sosed Jason West, ki je povrhu vsega še pravi ženskar. S prijateljem imata zasebno preiskovalno agencijo, in ko izve, da Nia prejema grozilna pisma, ji nemudoma pomaga. Seveda pa se njuna življenja začneta vedno bolj prepletati. Ali bo Jason prerasel fazo ženskarja in ali bo pravočasno rešil Nio iz krempljev zalezovalca? Na začetku knjige sem bila malo skeptična, češ da bo spet ena in ista zgodba s srečnim koncem. Ampak ostala sem prijetno presenečena. Tako zaplet kot tudi razplet sta bila nepričakovana in knjigo sem morala prebrati v enem dnevu. Odlična knjiga s prijetnim slogom pisanja, ki me res ni pustil hladne. Pisateljica je odlično izbr...

Izzivam te- knjižni tag

Slika
Zdravo! Končno ena objava tudi v slovenščini. Že dolgo nisem bila aktivna na blogu in sedaj se vračam s knjižnim tagom. Knjigoljubka Maja me je izzvala, da naredim knjižni tag, sicer ga pišem malo pozno, ampak nič zato. njen knjižni tag si lahko ogledate tukaj .In tukaj so tudi moji odgovori :) Katera knjiga je najdlje na tvoji polici, pa je še vedno nisi prebrala? Težko rečem, katera je najdlje na moji polici, saj večino preberem kar se da takoj, ko jo dobim v roke. Verjetno je to Peta gora Paula Coelha.  Katero knjigo trenutno bereš, katera je zadnja, ki si jo prebral/a in katero boš brala naslednjo? Trenutno berem Škotsko ulico Samanthe Young, pred tem sem prebrala Indijsko ulico, naslednja knjiga pa bo Ulica v mesečini. Knjiga katero vsi obožujejo, tebi pa ni všeč? Verjetno bo to Grey od E.L: James. Knjiga se mi ni zdela pretirano drugačna od prvega dela Petdeset odtenkov sive, tudi nič novega nismo izvedeli. Knjiga za katero neprestano govoriš, da jo b...

How do we experience love?

Slika
Hey everyone!  This is not really a typical blog post, just some of my thoughts, but let's try :) I decided to talk about love, because I've witnessed so many unreal and toxic relationships or just real love at the wrong place at the wrong time. And that bothers me, why can't there be just love and everything is perfect from that moment on? Nowdays, in this "new age" era people don't even know what love is, or I better say they now exactly what love is, but they don't want to have "problems" with it.  Some people say: "Oh my god, I'm so in love with this person, but I can't get into a relationship because I don't want to have problems." Wait a second, if you don't want to have problems you are not in love with this person. You just want to have a quick romance, because you are lonely. This is not love.  But does love even exist? We all know what love feels like, butterflies, heart beating and stuff. But is it r...

Movie review: Tempestad

Slika
Hey peeps! As you know I'm a volunteer at Amnesty International and I got to see one of the movies on the Festival of documentary film 2017, that compete for an award for human rights. Tempestad by Tatiana Huezo (2016) The story is about two different women in Mexico, that had been the victims of the country and cartels. Miriam was arrested with her other colleagues in her job at the airport, because they were accused of trafficking with people. But she didn't do it, the government just needed somebody to accuse. She was transferred to prison run by Cartel, but it wasn't really a prison, more like a torturing hotel without any bars. She got out after 8 months for the lack of evidence. She felt stigmatized and she lives in fear ever since. The other woman Adela has a marvelous family that works in a circus. Her daughter was abducted by people that worked with the police. They sold her forward. Adela and her family were threatened to stop searching, but the family stil...
