Welcome to Books&Thoughts!

Hello,

I want to tell you a few things about this blog. As you can see, this is not pretending to be an academic blog, nor your typical book review blog. It’s also not about reading competitions or reading challenges. This is a place where I share my reflections about books I read recently or a long time ago. It's a place I created to find and connect with other people who enjoy reading for reading instead of proving something.

I am a slow reader; about twenty books per year is the maximum for me. Sometimes I read less, other times more, depending on mood, time, life… I have a job, a wife, and a hyper-demanding four-year-old Potcake dog (that's a fancy name for a mix of all breeds), so sometimes I fill my days in other ways. Still, books are my passion; I savour them instead of devouring them. My goal here is to have an exchange with people, hear opinions, get some recommendations, and whatever else people might want to share.
