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. I lived love and loss through stories threaded in history; I experienced adolescence by association. 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
// “There is always a brave new world,” said Poirot, “but only, you know, for very special people. The lucky ones. The ones who carry the making of that world within themselves.” —Hallowe’en Party by Agatha Christie
// “I wasn't aware that words could hold so much. I didn't know a sentence could be so full.” —Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens
// it has been a while since i participated in any readathons, so apart from the magical readathon: orilium - gear up, i also had to join an animal crossing readathon! ✨

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
