My name is Isabel, and I created Between the Pages as a space where my love for reading could live beyond the margins of a book. Reading has always been more than just a hobby for me — it’s how I relax, reflect, and connect with different perspectives and emotions. I especially love romance and fantasy because they allow me to fully escape while still feeling deeply connected to the characters. Books have always felt like a safe and comforting place in my life, and I wanted to create a digital space that captures that same feeling for others.
My Journey
My journey with reading started long before I ever thought about creating a blog. Books were always my quiet escape — a place I could turn to when I needed comfort, inspiration, or just a break from everything going on around me. As I grew older, reading became more than just something I enjoyed; it became part of how I understood myself and the world. The characters I connected with and the stories that stayed with me shaped the way I think, feel, and even dream about my future.
When I began studying digital marketing, I realized I didn’t just love books — I loved the idea of sharing them. I became interested in how stories are presented, how visuals influence emotion, and how online spaces can build real communities. That’s when the idea for Between the Pages was born. I wanted to create a space that combines my passion for reading with my interest in branding, creativity, and connection.
This blog represents a new chapter in my journey. It’s where my love for romance and fantasy, my appreciation for cozy aesthetics, and my goal of working in publishing all come together. I’m still learning, still growing, and still discovering new stories — and that’s the beauty of it. Between the Pages isn’t just about the books I read; it’s about the path I’m building toward a future centered around storytelling, creativity, and community.
Interests and Hobbies
My interest in creating this space also connects to my journey as a digital marketing student. I’ve always been drawn to creativity, storytelling, and design, and this blog allows me to combine those passions. It gives me the opportunity to explore branding, visual identity, and content strategy while still staying true to something I genuinely love. As someone who hopes to work in publishing one day, building this platform feels like an important step toward that future. It’s a way for me to practice sharing stories, building community, and promoting books in a meaningful way.
My Goals
My goal with this blog is to celebrate reading as part of everyday life and build a warm, welcoming community of book lovers. I want Between the Pages to be a space where young adults and fellow readers can discover new books, reflect on meaningful stories, and share their emotional connections to what they read. Beyond simply reviewing books, my goal is to create conversations and encourage people to see reading not just as entertainment, but as something that shapes how we think, feel, and grow.
