Hi guys,

I have been quiet for a while. I skipped the last two Sunday Posts. The reason for that is: I haven’t been feeling well. I was too tired, spent most of my weekends in bed, caughing all the time. It was just exhausting. It wasn’t covid (I tested negative) but whatever it was took too long to finally end. I feel better since Thursday, so let’s hope it is the end game for whatever it is.
If nothing, this experience made me think of my body and how I treat it and I should take more care about my health.

I haven’t been blogging for a while. Most of the posts were pre scheduled and now I have lots of comments and blog visits to keep up. I hope I’ll do it til Wednesday. Unfortunately I have to go to work on Monday.

Last week on Book Dust Magic:

Tuesday: I reviewed The Shaadi Set-Up by Lille Vale
Wednesday: I talked about Sunkissed by Kasie West
Friday: I gave an early review for the novel Never Rescue a Rouge by Virginia Heath

Next week on Book Dust Magic:

Upcoming reviews:

The Ex Between Us by Nicola Marsh book cover UK edition

Dahmer MOnster: The Jeffery Dahmer Story

Book Haul:

I got two books for review from the publishers and I also won one in the contest organised on my work place.

Currently reading:

I am reading this ya novel for ages now. It is a solid coming of age story but I am ready to finally finish it, which I hope will be today (so I can read something scary for Halloween).

That is it!

Hi guys,

Can you believe that I have been successful when it comes to keeping up with my blogging and have been posting for 9 days in a row? Me neither, but it is true. I guess hosting blogtober was a good step to get me back to blogging routine.
Now I just have to find a way to keep up with comments and visiting other blogs in a pace that I’d be happy with.

In my personal life it wasn’t the best week ever. My favourite colleague and a friend was let go from the job and working atmosphere was dull. In other words, going to a job is little bit harder ever since. But I guess I will get used to this with time.

We are spending this weekends in my parents’ house. We decided to visit them this weekend instead of next one when we should have gone, because my husband realized it would work better with his schedule that way.
Today we plan to watch The Luckiest Girl Alive which I am sooooo looking forward to because I remember I loved that book (even though I don’t remember much of it anymore).

I know it is Sunday and tomorrow is Monday, but I can’t wait for the next weekend to start again. Does it tell you something or what?

Last week on Book Dust Magic:

Monday: I talked about a movie called Me Time
Tuesday: I reviewed The Daughter of Doctor Moreau by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
Wednesday: I posted my review for The Falling Girls by Hayley Krischer
Thursday: I gave my two cents on The Summer I Turned Pretty show
Frieday: I reviewed The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches by Sangu Mandanna
Saturday: I posted my review for My Brilliant Friend by Elena Ferrante

Next week on Book Dust Magic:

Upcoming reviews:

Book Lovers by Emily Henry book cover US edition

My Epic Spring Break by Kristin Rockaway

One Thousand Stars and You Isabelle Broom book cover

Currently reading:

Monsters among us by Monica Rodden book cover

I picked this book because I was in a mood for thriller, but I didn’t know how dark themed it actually is.
It is very good so far but reading it is somewhat an emotional rollercoster for me.

That is it!

Hi Guys,

It has been a while since I participated in Sunday Post meme. I’ve been lacking as a blogger for some time now, so I wanted to get back on track, and Sunday posts always make me stick to my schedule.

I know November only started, but I am already getting into Christmas mood. I signed up for HoHoHoRAT that starts this week (on Friday). I had so much fun participating last year so I didn’t want to miss it for the world!

I also signed up for the Secret Santa project on Twitter, #baublesandbooks .

As for my private life, I am mostly at home, enjoying books, The Hunting of Hill House, the Netflix show and playing with GiGi ( my cat).
I am 23 weeks pregnant now and I can feel the baby moving inside me, which is an experience!!

Last Week on Book Dust Magic:

I only had two blog posts.

Friday: I reviewed A Perfect Cornish Christmas by Phillipa Ashley
Saturday: I talked about books I read in October

Next Week on Book Dust Magic:

Upcoming reviews:

I will also talk about my plans for HoHoHo readathon, talk about products I use to prevent stretch marks and reveal gender of my baby.

Currently reading:

I am so happy to have an opportunity to read this new novel by Josie Silver, an author who wrote One Day in December. I only started it so it’s too early for me to say is it good or not, but my hopes are pretty high.
The book comes out next year, but I just couldn’t wait any longer.

That is it!

Hi Guys!

Long time no see! If you noticed, I stepped away from blogging for a while, and that is because I was working on new design for my blog. I wanted to focus only on that to make sure I did it right. I hope you like how it turned out!

Now with the new domain and fresh look, I am happy to announce that new posts will be live regularly, and there will be 3-4 posts per week.

As for my private life, there is not much going on. I was really sick on Friday, my throat hurt so badly I almost didn’t go to work, but I decided to try my best to make through that one day and see if it will develop into something more serious. I think it was just a bad cold, because I couldn’t breathe either, but there is nothing that warm bath can’t cure, so I am much better now, and I will be ready to go to work tomorrow.
My nose is still running, but with warm baths, paracetamol, vitamin C and Septolete, this cold is pretty much under control.

Last week on Book Dust Magic:

Saturday: I launched Book Dust Magic 2.0 and I also reviewed The Evidence Agains You by Gillian McAllister

Next week on Book Dust Magic:

Upcoming reviews:

I will also talk about books I read in April and how I visited Zoo park in Zagreb.

Currently reading:

This middle grade novel talks about magic and I am really enjoying it so far!

That is it!

Hi Guys!

This has been a slow week and not much happened. I feel like I wanted to read more, wanted to write more, but was slower at everything I did, so therefore I didn’t end this week too satisfied with that aspect of my life.

I keep thinking how behind I am with some of my reviews, and even though I don’t want to pressure myself too much, I still feel down about it.
I decided to give myself a big pause and stop buying/requesting books for the fist half of the year, so I could focus on books I already have.
There are some books I already purchased/requested, but other then that, there won’t be new ones for a while.
My main aim is to focus on ARCs and Netgalley copies.

On the other hand, for some reason my blog DA went up (for only 1 point) so the traffic was really good, even though I didn’t host any giveaways, and it made me really happy.

Today I’m looking forward to go on a date with my fiance. We’ll go to a nice restaurant and just enjoy ourselves.

Last Week on Book Dust Magic:

Monday: I gave you my 2018 end of year bookish survey

Wednesday: I talked about how I left some books around city, for others to find them

Friday: I reviewed The Chestnut Man by Soren Sveistrup and White Stag by Kara Barbieri

Next Week on Book Dust Magic:

Upcoming reviews:

Currenly Reading:

I’m rereading The Cruel Prince so I could jump right into The Wicked King when it arrives (I ordered it some time ago but it is still on it’s way).

That is it!

Movie Monday: Deepwater Horizon

Movie Monday is a weekly feature here on my blog, in which I’m rambling about movies I’ve watched lately.

This week I watched an action drama about the worst oil spill in US history.

Deepwater Horizon

deepwater-horizon This week I went to movie theatre with my boyfriend. He had a great strategy to make me go and see this over all the other movies that are in theatres right now (like Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children). He said he want to go and watch this movie, we went to the theatre at the exact time that was enough for us to buy our tickets and popcorn. Miss Peregrine was already playing for 30 minutes, so we arrived too late for that one.

Maybe I do sound like I’m sorry I missed Miss Peregrine (I really wanted to see it on big screen), but I am definitely not sorry we went to see Deepwater Horizon.

This is a movie that shows us what happened in 2010 when the biggest oil spill disaster in US history happened.
I remember that catastrophe.
Videos of poor animals covered in oil went viral and were all over the news.
I still remember it with sadeness in my heart.

Deepwater Horizon shows us what really happened, what lead to that oil spill and how many lives were in dangerous.
It is action packed and even though it is a really good movie, I watched it with bitterness in my heart because I knew what I was watching really happened. It wasn’t a fiction, it was an addaptation of real life events, of a disaster that really happened in our world and the consequences of that catastrophe still effect our planet.

I have to stress out that this is a really good movie with great cast. It even took me by surprise how many famous (or known to me) actors were in this movie (Mark Wahlberg, John Malkovich, Kate Hudson and Dylan O’Brian are just some of them).

In my opinion, Deepwater Horizon is worth giving a try so I recommend it to everyone who’s curious about what happened in 2010, but also to action drama lovers.
