June has been an interesting month with lots of crazy weather changes, but at least we were not bored... Lipanj je bio zanimljivi mjesec sa puno ludih promjena vremena, ali barem nam nije bilo dosadno.

I see you are living life to the fullest and leaving nothing to regret. I am so happy you are able to truly enjoy yourself and all the beautiful places life has to offer you! :)))
All your comments mean a lot to me, even the criticism. Naravno da mi puno znači što ste uzeli vrijeme da nešto napišete, pa makar to bila i kritika. Per me le vostre parole sono sempre preziose anche quando si tratta di critiche.
Today I shall review The Island of Missing Trees by Elif Shafak. I was actually gifted this book. What a wonderful present it proved to be! Published in 2021, this postmodern novel follows two story lines and uses framed narration. The Island of Missing Trees tells the life story of a Greek Turkish couple and their adolescent daughter. This novel examines and explores a number of topics such as identity, migration, immigrant life, war trauma, memory, love and family. It's an ambitious novel that examines serious topics with due respect and sensitivity . I read it months ago, but I remember it vividly. Honestly, I cried a lot while reading this novel. It really moved me greatly. In fact, that is probably why it took me this long to finish this book review. I needed to emotionally process the story. The Island of Missing Trees is set in London and Cyprus. The narration isn't chronological . The story jumps back and forth, following ...
Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! In this post, I'll share a review for a short story The Fall of Edward Barnard by William Somerset Maugham. Published in 1921, The Fall of Edward Barnard is a wonderfully ambiguous and modernist piece of writing that through irony, contrasts the the East and the West. Indeed, you might say that Maugham criticizes the Western culture, or at least its perceived inability to appreciate other cultures, and a simpler way of life. At the same time, this critique is not overly negative and he recognizes the progress that the Western culture achieved. Even while Barnard questions the price of industrial progress of the West, he doesn't ridicule it and is very much aware of its advantages. In other words, this story is extremely intelligent in its contrasting of industrial values with those of countries that are not as industrial. In my last post, I reviewed The Painted Veil and did my best to avoid spoilers. To...
Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! In this post, I'll review Tenahu , the fourth novel in the Earthsea Cycle by Ursula K. Le Guin. The novel reintroduces Tenar as the novel's protagonist. If you remember my previous reviews, Tenar was absent from the third book, so I was thrilled to read about her again. This fourth novel didn't disappoint. It connects quite nicely with the third one. Published in 1990, twenty years after the third novel in the series, Tehanu takes of where the third novel ended. The Farthest shore is for a variety of reasons often marketed and sold as the last book in the Earthsea Cycle. As I explained it my last post, it's mostly due to a two decades long publishing pause. However, I wonder if there's not something more to it. Isn't it perhaps the case that people were so used to fantasy trilogies that they immediately assumed that this is it? Fortunately, it wasn't! Now, for Tenahu Ursula herself chose the subtitle...
Hello dear readers! Today I'll invite you to join me on my visit to Mdina on Malta. I visited Mdina with my namesake friend in March 2022. It was three years ago that I visited Malta for a rather long (two week) long holiday during which I explored the island both with my friends and alone. I blogged about some of my visits, but I decided to save the best for last. Mdina has a fascinating history and hence deserves a post of its own. Mdina is a historical fortified city, once a capital of Malta, that is still confined within its walls. What to say about this ancient capital of Malta? It has been populated since prehistory and it served as Malta's capital from ancient times to the middle ages. It's a truly beautiful city and understandably -one quite popular with the tourists. Still, Mdina has fully preserved its ancient charm. Once you step pass its famous city gates, you will feel like you're travelling back in time. What did we do in Mdina? Would it surprise you to...
Hello readers and fellow bloggers! In this post, I'll share two transitional outfits featuring a lilac skirt from fashion designer Stanka Zovko. If you're a regular reader of this blog, you've probably seen this skirt before. Afterall, I'm really good at shopping my closet. I've been wearing this lilac skirt a lot in the past few months. It's also a great piece for transitional weather because it can be easily layered, or dressed up and down. Supporting local designers and artisans is certainly something that pays off in the long run. If you want to own unique pieces and at the same time, support your local community, you should really explore shopping local, or commissioning local artisans and designers. Sustainability in fashion is a big topic nowadays! However, sometimes I feel like people make it more complicated than it really is. We should go back to our origins. Explore vintage, second hand and local shopping. Learn how to stay away from the big shoppin...
