About

the blog

Belle Can Read was created on November 29, 2016 as a platform for me to share my love for reading through reviews, discussions, and memes. I wanted to challenge myself to reflect upon the books I read and form my own opinions about them. Sometimes I venture away from bookish talk to speak about more personal topics and non-bookish interests. Either way, Belle Can Read has become more than just a URL address on the internet—it’s a safe haven I can come home to and connect with the like-minded book community.
