Today has been a pretty good day. Why? Because I submitted two assignments (one more to go!) and I FINALLY released my Kingdom of the Wicked bookmarks 🔮🐍💀 There are five new designs available as part of this KOTW set: three quote bookmarks, and two variations of a bookmark inspired by Emilia and Wrath’s bargain tattoo. This bookmark is the “Powerful” design. Check out my stories or my Etsy shop for a look at the other designs. I feel like I’ve been on the cusp of releasing these bookmarks for a month now 😩 Between the weather and uni assessment, I had to delay them more than once. I’m so glad to now have them available in the store 🙌 Q: What bookmark are you using right now? #KingdomoftheWicked #Auskiwibooksta #KOTW #PrincesofHell #PrinceWrath #KerriManiscalco #KingdomoftheCursed #KingdomoftheFeared #popularbooks #bookquote #openbook #WrathandEmilia #aussiebookstagram #witchybooks #Etsysellerau #etsyseller #bookishetsy #bookmarkshop #newproduct #booktineusbookmarks #booktineusdesigns #smallbizau #shopsmall #readersofig https://www.instagram.com/p/CkQPFu4rKsD/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Q: What was the last book that gave you a book hangover? I've had a massive book hangover since I finished The Traitor Queen two weeks ago. I haven't been able to pick up a physical book since. And the few ebooks I've actually managed to finish have been good but also not as great at the Bridge Kingdom books are. //CHALLENGES// #turningpageswithbalzmarch22 - Self-Care Sunday #WordsWineandWitBookClub - Sunday Shelfie //HASHTAGS// #bookhangover #booksandcandles #rainbowshelves #sparkandsparrowperth #smallbookishbusiness #smallbizlove #auskiwibooksta #booknerdigans #bookwormproblems https://www.instagram.com/p/CaweVdZr_J0/?utm_medium=tumblr

Q: Which female authors do you own the most books by? SJM is easily one of my most owned female authors. Others I have a lot of books by include Juliet Marillier, Cassandra Clare, and Kelley Armstrong. There are a couple of others I could probably add to the list because I own most of their series, but I haven't necessarily read all of them yet 🙊 //CHALLENGES// #BDMAR22 - International Women's Day: favourite female authors #BookishBellesMar22 - Squid Games: popular books #LMSMarch2022 - International Women’s Day #ReadingInTheWeb - alice: favourite heroines #WordsWineandWitBookClub - All the Women #internationalwomensday #sarahjmaas #acotar #sjm #autobuyauthor #acomaf #bookstagrammer #popularbooks #rainbowshelfie #booksandcandles #prettybooks #auskiwibooksta #femaleauthors https://www.instagram.com/p/Ca1jQgkLw-L/?utm_medium=tumblr

This or that, candle edition! Bookish theme or general candles? Candles or melts? Coloured or non coloured? Tins or jars? My answers are basically both for all 😂 Though I really love the electric melt warmer I bought from @sparkandsparrowperth last year. I've been burning it more than my candles. //HASHTAGS// #booksandcandles #wickwednesday #sparkandsparrowperth #candleaddict #waxkelts #waxmelter #terrasen #bookmerch #smallbiz #auskiwibooksta https://www.instagram.com/p/CZv3gNoLr51/?utm_medium=tumblr

Q: Give me your faerie book recs! But recs that aren't Holly Black books, Sarah J. Maas books, or the Iron Fey series. please and thank you. Bonus points if it's something I haven't heard of before. My go to recs for faerie books are basically all of Juliet Marillier's novels. Basically every one of her books (she writes mostly historical fantasy) has fey in them. She write faeries that align with the traditional Irish lore more. Kelley Armstrong's Cainesville series is another I recommend. It's urban fantasy with some good mysteries and fey meddling. These Hollow Vows is one I haven't read yet but I've heard a lot of great things about. //HASHTAGS// #bookrecs #faebooks #faeriebooks #TheseHollowVows #tbrpile #toberead #bookrecs #newbooks #prettybooks #hardcover #booklover #auskiwibooksta https://www.instagram.com/p/CaJyKmnrBu2/?utm_medium=tumblr

Q: Do you prefer small or large bookmarks? As long as they fit in my book, I don't mind 😂 I don't really like them peeking out unless they have tassels. Which brings me to shameless self promotion time: all of the bookmarks in my Etsy store are available in two sizes! Regular (6" or 15.24cm tall) and large (6.7" or 17cm tall). I want you to be able to choose whatever you prefer! And the best thing is that even the large bookmarks fit in my mass market paperbacks without poking out. ALSO! I'm hosting a photo challenge (with a giveaway) on @booktineusdesigns in February!! Go check out the latest post for details 😊 I've been wanting to try hosting a photo challenge for ages so it's exciting to finally do one! //CHALLENGES// #BombBooks2022 - In Love With Love (#OTPs) #LMSJanuary2022 - Accessory (bookmarks count as a book accessory, right?) #RFABJan22 - Most Owned Author //HASHTAGS// #booknerd #ClockworkPrincess #TID #TheInfernalDevices #bookquote #wessa #cassandraclare #bookmarketsy #booksta #bookphoto #auskiwibooksta https://www.instagram.com/p/CZHE2ABrSqW/?utm_medium=tumblr

Q: How do decorate your shelves? Right now my shelves are mostly just books, but I do want to start spreading some merch around them (where the books aren't double-stacked, at least 🙈) I do have some of my @sparkandsparrowperth candles sitting there (with closed jars, not open like in this photo. We must maintain the scent for as long as possible/ until we burn them). I'd love to put some more of my bookmarks and things around there but have yet to figure out how it may work 😅 //CHALLENGES// #BombBooks2022 - Put a Pin In It (#FavoriteMerch) #ladiesoffictionjan22 - Books & Candles #LMSJanuary2022 - Beautiful //HASHTAGS// #bookmerch #shelfie #bookshelf #auskiwibooksta #booksandcandles #bookstack #tbrpile #toberead #prettybooks #bibliophile #bookstacks #ausyabloggers #ausbookishfeatures https://www.instagram.com/booktineus/p/CY3isEwrGAh/?utm_medium=tumblr
