Dear Reader,
yes, I am starting with such a sappy line. And yes, you are correct, I am returning to this blog. For now. Let us see how long it lasts this time, shall we?
The decision to dust of my book blog was rather quick and not very well thought-through. Like most of my decisions. You will see more of that if you decide to hang around. I thought about deleting my previous posts (these awful articles and reviews I wrote 10 years ago? I do not want to look at them, tbh), but I decided to keep them. I decided to allow them to stay, in their unfinished and badly written truth. As a memory to humble beginnings? To mistakes that were made? Or simply because I am too lazy to work through all that? We will never know.
I am looking out of my window right now, watching the last of the cold winter winds brush over the new green and the first buds of spring. What better time than to decide what I wish to keep this year? What I want to change and where I want to put my energy to work? One thing I do want to keep is books. My love for them, the joy I have in reading and recommending and talking about the words close to my heart. I want to keep that, as much as I want to keep writing for myself.
