The Whimsy Bookworm: A Book Blog from India

 Hello Loves! 💛 This Sunday was full of sunshine, list making and coffee drinking and rest.  A good, slow day.  Here's what today looked like:  Made a ton of bookish favourites lists.  So hopefully starting tomorrow you'll get all of my top 2024 bookish recommendations.  A stack of books 📚 I've bought recently.  Watching Journaling videos on YouTube and spending time with my Blog Planner.  Sunshine early in the morning.  Don't you just love December?  I love having every corner of home looking so darn festive and cheery.  My current very season appropriate bookmark🔖 

  What Today Looked Like:  Started a new book. Mayadevi's London Yatra by Bulbul Sharma is a charming, slice of life and bittersweet stories about regular people and ordinary lives. I am a couple of stories in and really enjoying this book.  Still reeling from a fever, so most of today was spent sleeping off and sweating off this flu. Ugh. I feel so out of it and weak.  Coffee in a tiny but happy mug. It's from Chumbak.  Finally watched Godzilla Minus One and absolutely loved it. It's streaming on Netflix and you have to watch it. I love all things Godzilla but these new one (the American films) and the whole Godzilla is our friend..is a bit odd. I am much more inclined to think of him as a super villian. This Japanese film has some seriously good visual effects (it won the Oscar) but it has an incredible story and a whole bunch of amazing characters you grow to care about. It's got thrills and a heart. 

Today has been a sleepy and cozy Sunday. Making the most of these gentle days before Spring arrives with its heat.  I read a little.  Wrote a little something. Slept.  Ate out.  Spoke to my Parents. Got some gossip.   A cute notebook from Diary of a Flower Girl.  She is so precious, I don't even want to use her.  Blurry.  Nothing like being lost in a good book.  My book cart. I am thinking of moving some books around and lining up my 24 Books for 2024 here.  That ways I stare at it the whole time and make sure I read them.  Gloriously sunshine-y days.  The view out my window today.  Books, Laptop and Writing on my Mind.  All good things. 

 Hello Loves!  Hope you've had a good Sunday.  Mine included loads of sleep and a spot of reading and a few films.  So basically it was pretty good.  Below are few of my favourite things..  A Ray inspired bookmark from Studio Joyeeta.  A tiny painting, another bookmark from an IG shop that's now closed.  A love letter to self from Surreal Studio. I love this so much.  An embroidered bag from Hem Suta.  A delectable avocado toast. 🥑 Coffee under a lamp.  & A sticker with the right message~ Chill Out.  Starting tomorrow it's all sorts of yearly faves. Need to brainstorm and pour over my bookish notes and lists.  Busy week ahead.  Have a good one folks 🎀
