Hello everyone!
First of all, I just want to apologize for being away for so long.
Things have been a little chaotic around here, I’ve moved back to Portugal, yes I’m living with my parents again, which after almost 5 years of living alone can be a little hard to adjust. After 2 months I’m still waiting for most of my belongings to arrived from the UK, which is really upsting. I still don’t have my driving license, which means that I have to be completely dependable of my family and friends (public transports where I live completely sucks big time), it’s so frustrating. I also started a new job, which is exciting and nerve-racking at the same time! And with my spare time I’ve been hanging out with my childhood friends and studying for the upcoming exams (July), so I’ve really didn’t had the time to write a new post with how chaotic things have been.
But I’m back and very excited since I have been nominated for the Liebster Award! 
I would like to thank Holly from NutFreeNerd for nominating me for the award. Please go and check out her blog which is amazingly good and inspiring.

So I will proceed to answer the questions 🙂
- What author have you read the most books by?
I would have to say J.R.R Tolkien. I’m such a huge fan! I have read every single book probably more than once. I do have a special place for The Lord of the Rings trilogy, which I make sure to read at least once a year, but my favorite books by Tolkien would have to be Simarilion. - Where is your favorite place to read?
I really don’t have a favorite place to read, I enjoy reading anywhere that I can. I tend to get lost in the world that I’m reading so I don’t really pay attention to my soundings. But I have to say that reading on a Train does have a special space in my heart. - What is your favorite thing about blogging?
I love the fact that I can express my honest feelings about something and there will be someone, somewhere that will get what I’m saying. - Coffee or tea?
Coffee without a doubt. It just tastes so good, it’s relaxing and basically it’s family tradition. - Chocolate or vanilla?
If we’re talking about Ice-cream I would have to say Vanilla.
But if there’s a dark chocolate cake, well I just can’t say no. - If you had to choose only three books to bring with you to an empty island, which ones would they be?
It’s just so hard to choose only three books, there is too many story’s, characters that I love. But for certain I would take Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen – I just LOVE the books, there is no words to describe all the feels that this books provides me with.
The second book would be The Fault in our Stars by John Green – it’s just one of those books that I fall in love all over again every time I read it.
The third and final books would be One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel García Márquez – No review, however laconic or ponderous, can do justice to this true piece of art. Perhaps I can only hint at a few of the striking features of the work that are so novel, so insightful, and which make it such a success in my opinion. - Which fictional character from a book would you most like to date?
Park Sheridan from Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell. I feel like we was clearly written to be my partner in good times and in bad, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do us part. 😀 - Who is your favorite actor? How about actress?
I have to admit that my favorite actor/actress varies from time to time, depending on the last movies that I’ve watched. But one actor that has never left my top list would be Ken Watanabe. As for my favorite actress I have to say Nicole Kidman. - What is your favorite season?
Winter! I just hate hot weather, I have loads of allergies, I hate sweat, I hate how happy everyone seems to me when it’s warm and sunny outside. So yeah, you get it, I have strong feelings about it. - Do you prefer to read paper books or electronic books on an ereader?
I definitely prefer reading paper books, I like the smell, the feel and the texture. But I’m an avid ebook reader, since it’s much easier and cheaper to get books, I do carry my Kindle with me everywhere. - Which book do you think is the most underrated?
The Adolescent by Fyodor Dostoevsky some people say it is unworthy of Dostoyecsky’s canon on account of not reaching the philosophical heights of The Idiot, other cite erratic shifts in tone between comedy and drama; yet for those wise enough to appreciate the novel’s low-key themes and how deftly Dostoevsky gets across the inner turmoil of a young man hell-bent on finding love and escaping the city, will uncover a gem, I guarantee it.
