ABOUT ME

Welcome,

“in the quiet corners of the world, amidst the ordinary lives, there exists an unspoken beauty in the unnoticed souls”
- Jhumpa Lahiri

This blog is dedicated to book reviews, everything related to literature, travel as well as reflections on art and slow living. My little vignettes are a meditative representation of books I love reading and which bring me comfort, and of places I visit to find calmness and solace, especially during anxious times.

I hope you will find some interesting book recommendations here and you will be inspired to read more.

Also, I hope that these little vignettes from the world I inhabit will bring you some feelings of peace and comfort as well as they will have a calming effect on you by cultivating a loving and gentle space for all readers.

Hugs and cuddles,

Joanna Pola

“We are like books. Most people only see our cover, the minority read only the introduction, many people believe the critics. Few will know our content.”

“After all, what can a first impression tell us about someone we’ve just met for a minute in the lobby of a hotel? For that matter, what can a first impression tell us about anyone? (...) By their very nature, human beings are so capricious, so complex, so delightfully contradictory, that they deserve not only our consideration, but our reconsideration—and our unwavering determination to withhold our opinion until we have engaged with them in every possible setting at every possible hour.”
