booksandquills | Apocalyptic books to read during a Pandemic @booksandquills | Uploaded March 2020 | Updated October 2024, 25 minutes ago.
What kind of books do you read during anxious times like these? I always get drawn back into apocalyptic fiction, and thought I'd share some favourite and my current to read list.
Wilder Girls was gifted to me by the publisher.

Hoi! I'm Sanne. Seven years ago I moved from the Netherlands to London, where I'm currently working as a freelance social media producer, event host and content creator. I've been making videos for 10 years and on my channel I talk about books (quite a lot), translation, the publishing industry, London, travel and career and creativity advice. If you're looking for your next book to read, need a confidence boost before starting your internship/new job or want to follow my journey trying to reach new creative and freelance goals, you're in the right place!

📖book reviewing policy 📖
I can currently only accept a small number of books for review and I don't accept self-published books. I enjoy reading classics, dystopian/apocalyptic novels, historical fiction, sci-fi and a variety of graphic novels, YA and contemporary literary fiction. Any questions? Please get in touch via email.
🌙where is your accent from? 🌙
I was born and raised in the Netherlands, studied English Lit at Leiden University (also in the Netherlands), studied in the US for 3 months and have lots of American friends. Now that I live in London, I still mostly have my American accent, but with lots of British vocab mixed in.
