Is it worth to read bad writing?
I used to think reading wasn’t for me but, then for the first time, I found something worth reading. Isabel Allende and Banana Yoshimoto are two of my favourite writers.
I am passionate about queer writing, sci-fi and design books. I usually read while travelling or before going to bed.
Why do you read?
All books from A to Z
I have never really kept track of what I read but some key books have probably influenced me more than others.
I am going to add the most important books I have read since my childhood, perhaps you have also read some of my favourite books.
