Hello there! My name is Lyra, and I am your hostess in this online tavern. First drinks are on me! (Too bad, you can't get any drinks)
This online blog will have one major focus: fantasy. Simply, because, I love fantasy, and spend a lot of time in other worlds than this one. Since I also like writing, I created this blog. It is my start of 2015, let's hope it is a success!
So, something about me. Well, I am 17 years old and I study literature. I am Dutch, but this blog is in English, as not many people know Dutch. I really like reading, mostly historical novels and works of fantasy. I will try to give you a short list of my favourite books, but it are so many...
The Lord of the Rings & The Hobbit by the one great Tolkien.
The Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson (You will hear more about this in my posts)
The Mistborn Trilogy by Brandon Sanderson (and all his other books)
Now this seems like a very short list, but in reality, it contains 22 books. Because, I might mention, I prefer large books: the more, the better!
I also enjoy movies, like, LOTR, and games. Now I am not anything like an experienced gamer, since I don't own anything like a console except for my beloved laptop. Now this laptop is a second hand and is quite old (Windows 8 is out of the question), so as far as new games go, I am inexperienced. I might as well add that I have a boyfriend, who is an experienced gamer, so he likes to help me. Anyway, games I play (or have started, time is limited) are Skyrim (Laptop does not like Skyrim, so it is nothing but a start), Assassins Creed, and Minecraft.
Now, if you want to know more about me, I suggest you start reading my blog, for it will take you on many adventures...
