Rainy Days Coffee and Books

today i affirm…

@andrewsmcmeel was kind enough to give me Alexandra Elle’s new journal that is all about self-discovery, growth, and exploration. It’s a journal I plan on writing in every day to delve deeper into what inspires me, what makes me happy, and how I want to improve myself.

Inspired by this journal, I want to share some goals I have with you all: do yoga at least four times a week, learn to cook healthy meals, make videos consistently on my channel, write more, wake up earlier, and stop impulsive purchases. Do you have any goals for 2019?

I’d like to title this, “I eat books for breakfast.”.

Do you have any reading goals for the new year? I want to read 100 books, but I’m not holding myself to it. If I don’t hit it, that’s perfectly fine. Over the years I’ve learned to let reading become a true hobby and not a chore, that way the number of novels don’t keep me up at night anymore.

“If this town is just an apple,
Then let me take a bite.”

There’s nothing nicer than wandering New York City’s streets with friends, exploring bookshops, and taking photos of each other to keep hold of the memories we made.

I also want to highlight my adorable, rose-gold watch from @danielwellington ! The strap of the watch reminds me of mini chainmail, and it makes me feel both fancy and unstoppable at the same time. DW has such a large array of watches to choose from, so anyone can find their match, and to help you with that! I have a 15% off coupon for you all when you order from #DanielWellington . Just use the code ‘STORIESFORCOFFEE’.

Books I’m Thankful For

What books are you reading to end off 2018?

I’m currently reading Queen of Air and Darkness (NO SPOILERS PLEASE) and Pride by Ibi Zoboi which is an Afro-Latinx retelling of Pride and Prejudice, and I’m adoring both books! I really hope I can finish them before the year ends.

Thank you to @bighonchomedia for the lovely Christmas-y socks! It’s been an honor working alongside you, in 2018, on all the bookish things ♥️.

B o o k H a u l

Thank you so much to @berkleypub for gifting me these free books, especially my most anticipated book of 2019, When We Left Cuba by Chanel Cleeton! I cannot believe that I have another novel written by a Cuban author in my hands, alongside other amazing romance novels which are my favorite genre of books to devour.

I’m still in awe of how many Cuban novels are being published, as of late. Our culture, history, and undying passion is finally being shown to the world through fictional storytelling. When I was little, I never saw myself reflected in the stories I read. I had never heard of Cuban characters talking so openly about their resilience and cultural history. It still makes me smile to know that we’re finally getting our chance to tell our stories, whether they’re in a romance, historical fiction, fantasy, etc. It’s a dream come true.
