Thoughts from the reading corner
After finishing the books I wanted to finish in June, I thought I'd continue one of the series that I'd been reading. But wouldn't that be too much of the same? I discussed this with my mental self and came to the conclusion that it doesn't hurt to read something different. Hence, I took one... Continue Reading →
Sometimes, I read books that are related to my job. Building Microservices is one of them. For those who don't know, Microservices are the buzzword in software development for the past 8 years. You can't go to a conference without people asking you whether you build microservices. Yet so many people do it wrong. That's where... Continue Reading →
My theme for summer is Superheroes. Now, you can’t really have superheroes without their counterparts, can you? When I found this book, I thought it’d be a good way to start. I have read superhero books in the past, albeit with mixed feelings. What was The Rules of Supervillainy going to be like? I had... Continue Reading →
Whether you've noticed it or not, I am a fan of Rayne Hall's books. They help (starting) authors in improving their writing. After reading a few already, I decided it was time to pick up Writing Deep Point of View. Because I've felt the strengths of it. Here's my review. This book is filled with tips... Continue Reading →

I've chosen a new theme for the summer. There was a spoiler in my last monthly recap. You guessed it! The theme... Continue Reading →
A better start in June! Book one finished. And it's the second book in the Jane Hawk series. I put it in my planning for the month, but damn. Now I want to read the third book as well. Good job, Dean Koontz. Good job! Fast-paced action! That's what you get when you read this book.... Continue Reading →
Well hello, reader! Welcome to the shortest monthly wrap-up I've ever written on this blog. Seriously, I feel bad about it. I had hopes of reading six books, and I only managed three. I will not use excuses. I didn't use all of my time for reading while I had assumed I would. Bad estimations... Continue Reading →
Another month in this warm Spring, so time for another themed book! Space, wasn't it? Ha! You're right it was! So what book is a good space book? I settled with Revenger, an Alastair Reynolds novel that was published in 2016. How was it? Worth reading? Enough waiting. Here's my review! This book starts with space... Continue Reading →
