OKAY TIME TO TALK ABOUT CROOKED KINGDOM LIKE EVERYONE ELSE ON #BOOKSTAGRAM YAY . . I'm currently on Part Three of Crooked Kingdoms and omg I am LOVING IT. It was so wonderful meeting Leigh Bardugo and hearing her talk about her writing process. And I got a Jesper card! 🔫🔫 My friend who went with me got Kaz so we got the two kings ☺️ . . QOTD: Have you ever been to a signing? If you've been to multiple - who's been your favorite so far? . .

HAPPY FALL! It's finally time for all the cozy awesome things that come with the season - hot drinks, leather boots, sweater dresses, cozy blankets, crunchy leaves... It also happens to be HOBBIT DAY since it is both Frodo's and Bilbo's birthday today! I have decided I will eat cake today in their honor because they deserve it (and also because I just want cake and we all know that's the real reason😛). Since I don't own any Tolkien books (the shaaaaame), today's photo is of my lovey copy of The Three Musketeers with a cover by @tomgauld. It seemed to fit with the fall color scheme. :) . . QOTD: Are you doing anything in honor of Hobbit Day? Or in honor of the First Day of Autumn? . . Day 22: #lilbookishseptember #booksfaithlovesept16 #rosyautumntales #fallthebooks #grimdragon : Autumn Colors #bookaholicsreadseptember2016 : Over 500 Pages

If you have never experienced my flails about this book - WELCOME. YOU ARE IN FOR A RIDE. Everything about this book is perfection, from its characters (SUCH AMAZING POWERFUL GIRLS) to its plot (one of the best twists I've ever read). If you've never read Code Name Verity - SHOO GO FIND A COPY . . QOTD: Favorite fictional female friendships? (Gotta love that alliteration ☺️) . . Many thanks to my own sister and favorite lady (@kitchenwhimsy) for donating her arms to this photo. ❤️❤️ . . Day 18: #bookaholicsreadseptember2016 : Emotional Books #booksfaithlovesept16 : Favorite Series (or one of them)(is this even considered a series?) #ampersandsept16 : #shelfie #fallthebooks: Favorite Female Friendships #septberkleychallenge : Best Book Friendships

CONFESSION TIME: •I dog ear pages constantly - because I can never find a bookmark •I have to read while eating (unless there's someone talking to me at the table - not trying to be rude!😛) •I judge books sometimes by how pretty they'd look on Instagram •I have minimal bookish merchandise (or fandom/nerd merchandise in general) •I only started reading YA when I was about 18 years old - before then it was mostly classics . . QOTD: SPILL YOUR SECRETS! What are your bookish confessions? . . I was going to give out bonus points for identifying the book in the picture but then I realized that, as smart and observant as you lovelies are, this one was rather difficult. So I'll just tell you - it's Jane Eyre, one of my favorite literary heroines of all time. ☺️ . . Day 11: #grimdragon : Book Nerd Confessional #bookaholicsreadseptember2016 : #socksunday #rosyautumntales: Classics Love #lilbookishseptember : Snarky Characters (Who says classics books have no snark?😛 I present to you Jane Eyre (with her subtle snark) and Edward Rochester (with his slightly more obvious)).

September is one of my favorite months because you never know which days are going to be Autumn-y and which are still Summer-y. Today is definitely still summer (90 degrees F!) So this is my take on the #bookishsummerombre tag (thank you @paperfury ☺️☺️). Because seashore and trees and sand and nature. :) (Also the photo is from May in Denmark, which is another of my favorite months. I like the transitions between seasons, it seems.) . . QOTD: Favorite month(s)? . . Day 7: #lilbookishseptember : Navy and Green #bookaholicsreadseptember2016 : Book and Flowers #booksfaithlovesept16 : Stack Of Books (kinda)

#day6 of #bookaholicsreadseptember2016 brings us to the "closing line" I picked #ruinandrising by #leighbardugo I love this line bc I feel like I live it. When I was younger I wanted an -extraordinary- life more than anything, but as I grew up I learned that sometimes the most ordinary of daily occurrences can be the most wonderful. And nowadays I will take a quiet evening at home with my hubby over thrilling adventure any day (unless I'm reading or writing it, of course!) What "ordinary" things make you all happy?? 😍 #bookchallenge #photooftheday #closingline #writersofinstagram #bookstagram #bookaholic #photography #ordinary #ilovemyhusband

HAPPY SEPTEMBER! I decided to wear my boots today to celebrate the first hint of fall (the weather was cooperative and cool). I've got a pretty big TBR for September, but I'm excited! Today I plan to finish reading The Secret Keepers and move on to... well, why don't you help me decide? Which book in the pile should I read next? . . @book_self tagged me to show my #bedsidebooks! 💙💙 . . Day 1: September TBR #booktembergr #lilbookishseptember #bookaholicsreadseptember2016 #rfabseptember16 #septbookstagram #booksfaithlovesept16 #bookocandisrex
