‪20 Aug 2017.‬ See any of your favourites? It’s been TEN WEEKS since I posted a full shelfie. Whoops. I think that since I wake up to the sight of them every day, I forget that other people don't see this #rainbowshelfie goodness. I had to rearrange quite a bit the other day to fit in #MyLadyJane and some other books that I knocked off my #TBR collection. All hail the #bookstack for helping me fit things!

“There is the great lesson of 'Beauty and the Beast,' that a thing must be loved before it is lovable.” ― G.K. Chesterton . I'm bending the rules for my own challenge today... I'm doing a story appreciation... Beauty and the Beast... the classic fairy tale (not just the popular Disney versions) - this story, in its simplest form is the number one influence on my writing... And Chesterton's quote is exactly why - when a person is first loved, love then flows from them... and if they are not loved first... well... . QOTD: do you prefer "Disnified" fairy tales or the classic versions? . .

19 Aug 2017. 'I will take what’s mine with fire and blood.' Well, look, by now we’ve seen the fire AND the blood from Daenerys. I still don’t understand how/why Drogon calmed down, though. One minute he was all ‘I’m picking you up from this death arena and letting you starve to death on a mountain before you’re kidnapped by some horse lords’ and the next he was like, ‘Yeah, jump on board and I’ll do exactly what you want and let you ride on my back whenever.’ WHAT HAPPENED?

16 Aug 2017. Are you a fan of unreliable narrators? I love that moment when you realise they’re not telling you the truth, and you start to question everything they’ve ever said or done. I couldn’t stand it in every book I read, but having that little whisper of doubt is intriguing every so often.

12 Aug 2017. If you could think up a family motto/house words, what would they be? I think my family and I always joked about having In Glass We Trust. Apparently when my parents got married, EVERYONE was like ‘Here, have some water glasses' and not enough of them have broken in the last 30-odd years so we're still drowning in drinkware. Also, I just realised how many of these #Westeros houses have been decimated throughout the series. Harsh.
