Meet the Reader

Welcome to My Bookish Secret. I'm a Portuguese blogger who loves reading a little bit too much (obviously). I needed a place to share my thoughts on books and fangirl about my favourite novels, characters, and fictional crushes. That's how this blog came to be. 

I love fantasy, fairytale retellings, horror, and dystopian books (both young adult and adult - however, I often read more young adult books than adult ones). Once in a while, I enjoy reading cute and fluffy contemporaries.

Random Facts About Me

🌻 I'm a night reader. I do read during the day, but I'm not fond of meeting new worlds while the sun is up. I always try to squeeze as many pages as I can before sleeping.  

🌻 I'm a cat lover through and through.
🌻 I suffer from book OCD. Folded pages and bent covers drive me crazy.
🌻 I'm addicted to TV series. How did I live before Netflix?

🌻 I've an MA degree in English Literature. Through my research, I advocate the inclusion of YA literature in academia.

🌻 I love doing research! Even though one day, some papers/articles will be the death of me.
🌻 I dream of becoming a published writer. That's probably why I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up. All I know is that I want to write and read.
