Welcome to my book blog!
Hello, I’m Ingrid, an industrial engineer. My life changed when I moved to another country with my partner. Since then, working with digital books has ignited my passion for reading and the digital realm.
I confess that reading wasn’t always a regular habit, but I successfully cultivated it about two years ago. What captivates me most about books are the human stories within their characters. When I read, I’m transported back in time, immersing myself in vividly described scenes, as if I’m watching a movie in my mind.
Moreover, every book imparts valuable moral lessons and reflections. Characters often inspire us, offering unique life perspectives. Sometimes, we connect deeply with nature, feeling as if the book speaks directly to us or someone we know. My favorite books are those that skillfully convey the emotions of the characters, evoking laughter, tears, and even anger, enabling me to experience their lives on a profoundly personal level.
My book blog aims to inspire and motivate readers to explore my recommendations and any book that piques their interest. It’s also about building a respectful community where we can share our thoughts and emotions about literature. I plan to establish an online book club eventually, encouraging discussions and sharing our reading experiences over time.
Blog Categories
The blog is divided into three categories. The first focuses on novels, where I share my appreciation for various characters and their stories. I don’t have a specific genre preference; I’m generally guided by recommendations from book clubs I participate in or synopses that catch my eye. Dive into a book; each page becomes a gateway to new insights, empathy, and imagination.
The second category delves into personal growth and spirituality, a space for self-exploration. These books have guided me in self-reflection, healing, and achieving a more fulfilling life. Over the past eight years, I’ve dedicated myself to self-improvement, exploring topics such as energy and frequencies, hidden family loyalties, the subconscious mind, and generational patterns. I approach these subjects open-mindedly, embracing different cultures, religions, and philosophies. In this section, I’ll share book recommendations on meditation, yoga, spirituality, and personal development. Please find topics or tools that help you feel better about yourself through reading.
Lastly, I’ll discuss business management, drawing from my 15 years of experience as an industrial engineer in manufacturing metal accessories for the footwear, leather goods, and jewelry industries. The business world and the entrepreneurial mindset have always intrigued me. I enjoy learning about tools and habits that enhance efficiency and goal achievement in the professional sphere. In this section, I’ll offer book recommendations on marketing, management, creativity, and business strategies.
I invite you to explore my book blog as we journey through the vast world of books and their transformative potential. Together, we’ll create a community that celebrates the beauty of literature and fosters personal and professional growth. Feel free to join the conversations, share your thoughts, and immerse yourself in the world of books.
Larimar Bookscape Meaning
You might be curious about why I named the blog Larimar or where the idea for this name came from. I’ve always been fascinated by crystals and gemstones and their meanings. In the past, I’ve used words related to semi-precious stones for my projects. I searched for a semi-precious stone associated with wisdom and communication this time. Around that time, while thinking about a name for the blog, I dreamed about a paradise beneath the sea. I also wanted a stone that reflected the colors of the sea or had some connection to it.
That’s when I decided on Larimar, known as the Atlantis stone, with its property of promoting communication. Spiritually, it symbolizes balance and calmness, which resonated with my vision. I was drawn to its color and properties, which aligned with my goals.
I chose the term “bookscape” because it can signify a landscape made of books. With my blog, I aim to create a “bookscape” that inspires people to read and get captivated by the stories within.
I hope you enjoy the content I provide.
Thank you for visiting my book blog!
