Books with multiple POVs

Hey everyone and welcome to my stop on this month’s blog hops. Today I’m talking about books with multiple POVs. Before we get there I want to briefly explain what exactly this is! These types of books are ones with multiple characters and you get the point of view of each and every one of those main characters. I know there’s controversy around these types of books especially when there are way too many characters to keep up.

Personally, I like them but it really does depend on how many points of view there are. For me, my limit is right around three characters. Not only that but they really have to stand out to me in order for me to really stick with it. Let me know in the comments what you like when it comes to multiple points of view.

Inspirational Nonfiction books for self-improvement

Welcome to Owl Book World! Like I said in my inspirational fiction books list I have been on a kind of kick with books that inspire you to do better and to be better. So, now I’m here with inspirational nonfiction books in case there’s something on there you would rather read. Since the pandemic has started I have gotten myself in a rut just like I’m sure many of you have as well. COVID has changed so much in our lives and I don’t think it’s exactly for the better (but maybe for some). We’re all pretty much for the most part stuck at home with not a lot to do. Granted most of you guys are probably happy with this because you aren’t as busy as you were.

Inspirational Fiction Books to add hope to your life

Welcome to Owl Book World! For the past couple of months, I have been interested in inspirational fiction books or just inspirational books in general. The last year I have noticed that I haven’t been happy. With covid, a lot has been happening and I’m sure a lot of people are getting depressed just as much as I am. It’s not fun and I’m sure there are just as many people who are getting fed up with it as much as I am. Back in November and December, I started noticing that reading feel-good books or books that just overall inspires you was actually making me feel better.

I know reading feel-good books to make you feel better really isn’t anything new. But a lot of people don’t really think about it or they think it really won’t help. To me, it’s worth a shot to get our mindset back where it needs to be.

Every once in a while I do read inspirational fiction books I just never read many self-help books. But that has changed a lot over the past couple of months. Why? Being negative was getting old and was taking a huge toll on my mental health. I was getting to the point where I was never happy. I was getting burnt out on blogging, burnt out on reading, and I was getting mad over every little thing. It’s getting old and I don’t like being so unhappy.

Reading Journal for book lovers

So many people out there are huge readers. If you’re here then you’re obviously one of them (or at least close). For a while now I have wanted my own personal reading journal to keep track of what I’m reading. Why? Because there have been many times I have accidentally bought the same book twice. Yes, I know, how exactly does that happen? Trust me it happens A LOT (and not just with me). So, I know a lot of readers use reading journals to keep track of their books. Instead, I’m keeping the books that I have read. I know there are apps out there for this sort of thing, but there are times I don’t really like depending on them. A lot of readers use a platform like Goodreads because it’s popular and convenient. But here is why I don’t like them.
