Bookshelf

Here are the books I’ve read, organized by year. Showcasing them is a small treat I allow myself, as I enjoy tinkering with my website and publishing content. It also motivates me to read more, which is one of my personal goals.

I really enjoy reading, both digital and physical books. When I manage to focus on a book and get “in the zone”, I usually take great pleasure in being fully immersed in the moment. However, it has become quite hard to do. Sometimes, my brain doesn’t cooperate and is overstimulated by too many distractions. I guess a lot of people experience this attention span issue—it’s a sign of the times, and it’s sometimes hard to resist.

Anyway, reading can be relaxing, entertaining, absorbing, educational, a way to escape, or a way to grow… so I hope I’ll manage to make more time for books. It’s not a competition though, so I won’t force myself to read as many books as I can just to fill this page!

I also really enjoy reading “Bandes dessinées” (aka Franco-Belgian comics), and some mangas (especially Katsuhiro Ōtomo and Jirō Taniguchi), but this page is focused on traditional novels and non-fiction books.
