Hi! I’m Kathleen but I prefer Kath. I’m from Manila, Philippines and currently living here in Germany. I’m a bookstagrammer and a book blogger. I enjoy reading young adult/adult contemporary, middle grade fiction, romance, and literary fiction. I read fantasy novels once in a while. Aside from books, music and photography, I also love cats, unicorn, sunset, rainbow, and a lot more. My list can go on forever.
To be honest, I’m not really a reader since birth. My family is more into music than reading. If I read or buy books, they’re mostly books written by Filipino authors (like Bob Ong, Lualhati Bautista, and Manix Abrera). I started to get into reading english novels and buying or collecting books back in 2012. It was also the year (as far as I can remember) when I started writing reviews and book blogging. I created my instagram account for my books (aka bookstagram) back in 2014 and the rest is history. Kidding! I consider my bookstagram account and this blog my precious babies.
I think it doesn’t matter if it’s a physical book or an e-book (or even audiobook) as long as I’m reading. By the way, I read faster on my kindle. Not sure why. I always buy books if i have a chance and of course, money. 😀
What to find in my blog?
Book reviews, weekly memes, challenges, list of books I’ve read, some personal stuff, etc. I’m not a professional book reviewer but I can assure you that I’ll give my 100% honest and fair opinions. I do not include spoilers because I myself hate them. If I do, I make sure that there’s a warning in the beginning.

Always,
