Happy #ShelfieSunday, Bookstagram fam! Also hitting day 21/30 of #30daysofbookishlove and #bookshelf from @anna.b.madrise_author . There’s a mountain of dishes waiting for me, not to mention laundry, but if I don’t look at them they’re not really there, right? I’ll hang out with you awesome people on here instead 😄. QOTD: How do you procrastinate chores? . . . #booknerd #books #booksarelife #booksaremagic #bookstagram #bookstagramcommunity #bookstagrammer #bookworm #read #reader #reading #lovetoread #procrastination

“There were demons to kill, but first I needed a cup of coffee.”. . And the award for best one-liners goes to...🥁 @faith_therivens 🏆! Day 19/30 of #30daysofbookishlove . The very first line of this book got me like 😆. So many little gems scattered throughout. They make me so happy! I’m showing off some The Little Prince tea and my rose teapot because that’s what Eleonore calls her son, and I love that dimension to her. She’s all kick ass at work and so sweet and soft with her son. Looooooove! 💗. . Other tags... 🏷 #bbnanochallenge . #youknowyoureawriterwhen ...you look up poisons on the Internet, their symptoms, treatments, and how fast they kill 💀. 🏷 #6ThingsYouDidntKnowAboutMe from @anna.b.madrise_author . 1) My second toe is longer than my big toe. 2) I grind my teeth at night and wear a super sexy mouth guard at night for it. 3) I really dislike this color combination. 💚💙 I don’t know why. It just really bothers me (though I have a sweater in those colors because @sewhalfcrazy made it for me, and it feels so nice). 4) I’ll try any beer but only ever found one I actually liked. 5) If It were up to me, we wouldn’t do turkey at Thanksgiving, but this is a democratic household, so 🦃 🦃 🦃. 6) I will pretty much do anything for a mince pie. The season of weakness is coming upon us! . . . #booknerd #books #booksarelife #booksaremagic #bookstagram #bookstagramcommunity #bookstagrammer #bookworm #read #reader #reading #lovetoread #writersofinstagram #writerscommunity #writerssupportingwriters #faithrivens #eleonore

I’ve mentioned to a couple people on here how grey it’s been here lately, which I totally dig because grey weather makes hot drinks taste nicer. That’s just a fact. #science .

I’ve mentioned before how much I like the convenience of e-books, but there’s a dark side: I forget what exists on my Kindle. For day 17/30 of #30daysofbookishlove , I’m featuring one of those #forgottenbooks . Awakening by @authorbriannawest . Feel free to pick up the tag if you want it. I need some naughty romance in my reading once in a while, and I think this book will hit the spot. 😏. . Other tags... 🏷 Catching up on #bbnanochallenge , hosted by @bookishbakes , yesterday’s #writingfuel prompt actually goes with today’s #writersblockcure ...writing. Thus, my laptop in the background. I know all the ways that might come off, but I’m being totally sincere. Nothing gets my brain juices flowing better than just sitting down and making stuff happen. Maybe what I initially write is garbage I end up editing out later, but for me writing leads to more writing and ideas. 🏷 Also hitting the #BoyOnCover tag from @captain.valour . . . . #booknerd #books #booksarelife #booksaremagic #bookstagram #bookstagramcommunity #bookstagrammer #bookworm #read #reader #reading #lovetoread #writersofinstagram #writerscommunity #writerssupportingwriters #briannawest #awakening

QOTD: What’s your favorite way to get rid of extra vodka? 😉. . . . #booknerd #books #booksarelife #booksaremagic #bookstagram #bookstagramcommunity #bookstagrammer #bookworm #read #reader #reading #lovetoread #ebhudspeth #theresurrectionist #skeleton #skull

Day 8/30 of #30daysofbookishlove . Is there a word for “someone who simultaneously inspires and makes you feel wholly inadequate”? Mary Shelley wrote Frankenstein and essentially started a new genre by the time she was 19. My list of accomplishments by that age is somewhat less impressive 😜. .

“In 19th century America you could be committed to a mental asylum for reading a novel.” ~No Such Thing as a Fish, episode 29. Well, Bookstagram fam, let us head to the asylum together 🤣. . 3/30 of #30daysofbookishlove . I adore Jane Austen for so many reasons. I’ve previously read P&P and just listened to the audiobook. Don’t you love it when you’re reminded why you love a book so much? Mrs. Bennett got me like 🤦‍♀️, Lydia like 🙄, and Darcy like 😆💗😆! QOTD: What’s a Book that makes you feel all the things again and again? . Other tags... #Top5Ships from @litnoob . In no particular order... -Darcy and Elizabeth every time! I don’t know how ships work. Can they be established couples? I don’t know, but I 💗 these two! -Neville and Luna from Harry Potter. Did that actually happen in the books? I can’t remember, but she’s so encouraging, and he’s so loyal. I think they’d be so sweet together. -Constantine and Rae from Sunshine by Robin McKinley. I know that’s not the point of the story and she’s got a boyfriend, but I always felt like she and Connie connected so well (and the tension is always there 😏). -Lucien and Elaine from ACOTAR. I’m still rooting for this one! Fight me if you dare! -Tom and Natalie from the A Natural History of Dragons series. Given their histories and ambitions, I think they’d compliment one another very well. . . #booknerd #books #booksarelife #booksaremagic #bookstagram #bookstagramcommunity #bookstagrammer #bookworm #read #reader #reading #lovetoread #janeausten #prideandprejudice
