DECEMBER WRAP UP

Happy New Year’s Eve! It is crazy to think that there are only a few hours left of 2020. It was a year that changed so many things in everyone’s lives and it felt as if it would never end but at the same time, it went by in a flash.

NOVEMBER WRAP UP

November has been a slow but nice reading month for me. I only read one book this month as I have decided to take a bit of a break from reading for the rest of the year. With summer vacation starting, I have been wanting to get to other things before the end of the year.

SEPTEMBER WRAP UP

SEPTEMBER WRAP UP

September has been the slowest month ever when it comes to anything bookish. I have only read one book this month, mainly because of a reading slump, and hauled only three books. To be honest, it was really amazing to take a break and to take things slower.

About the Blogger

White Rose Stories is a blog run by a teenage bookworm under the pseudonym Rose White.

Rose lives on a wine farm, somewhere in the peaceful countryside, in South Africa and can always be found with her nose between the pages of a book and/or with her loving puppy, Zorba.

She is a full-time university student studying English and Linguistics. However, in her free time, she likes to write reviews for some of her favourite books and capture them in pictures to share with her friends, followers and the rest of the bookstagram community on Instagram.

// “I spent my life folded between the pages of books. In the absence of human relationships I formed bonds with paper characters.

My world is one interwoven web of words, stringing limb to limb, bone to sinew, thoughts and images all together. I am a being comprised of letters, a character created by sentences, a figment of imagination formed through fiction.” —Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi

Favourite Quote at the Moment

“What she needs are stories. Stories are a way to preserve one’s self. To be remembered. And to forget. Stories come in so many forms: in charcoal, and in song, in paintings, poems, films. And books. Books, she has found, are a way to live a thousand lives—or to find strength in a very long one.”
—The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue,
by V.E. Schwab
