Do you like alternate dust jackets?    I got these alternate dust jackets in the mail today from @juniperbooks and had to snap a picture for everyone!    These are their new dust jackets for the first three A Court of Thorns and Roses series books and I LOVE them. Luckily I already had extra copies of the books, besides ACOMAF, so I just ordered a used copy of that and the dust jackets only and voila! They fit so well!    Featured is my Rhys candle from @burningbrightcandleco. Marissa has some great candles in stock for summer and you can use code LIBRARY10 to save on your order at checkout! ♥️    C H A L L E N G E S //  #bookstababesjuly20 / recent fave cover      #booknerd #bookishlife #bibliophile #bookaholic #bookhoarder #bookworm #bookstack #bibliophilelife #bookishpost #booklover #bookstagrammer #bookstagram #booklove #mybookfeatures #bookcommunity #bookobsessed #bookaddict #bookphoto #bookish #bookaesthetic #bookwormlife #booksbooksbooks #myfavoritethings #seeingthepretty #sarahjmaas #acotar #acomaf #acowar #juniperbooks https://www.instagram.com/p/CC4gaGRgdYV/?igshid=1qni6hh26aw9q

Happy Fourth of July everyone. ♥️⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ What are you up to this weekend?⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ We don’t really have any plans. Staying home, of course. Maybe BBQ? Probably watch movies. It’s just another day in the life!⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ If this Independence Day feels different, I believe that’s a good thing. The definition of freedom is always changing and growing to encompass more. Reading and supporting diverse voices in publishing is just one step of many we can take toward a better future.⁣ ⁣⁣ On another note - I now remember why I hate making book spirals. 😂 🙈 ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ C H A L L E N G E S / /⁣⁣ #cozyascanbee / book by bipoc author⁣⁣ #tumblesoverbooks / lgbtq+ positive book⁣⁣ #bookstababesjuly20 / explosions - happy 4th⁣⁣ #allthebooksjuly 20 / red white & blue stack⁣⁣ #letsgetlitbabes / “give more than you take”⁣⁣ #bookscoasttocoastjuly20 / red white & blhe⁣⁣ #31flavorsofbooksjuly / firecracker - rebel⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #bookworm #bookphotography #bibliophile #booklover #bookaddict #bookobsessed #booklife #bookish #beautifulbooks #booktag #bookgram #booksbooksbooks #vscobooks #prettybooks #bookdragon #myfavoritethings #bookstack #stacksaturday #bookspiral #4thofjuly #fourthofjuly https://www.instagram.com/p/CCO-Nrmg_fW/?igshid=ic4kxoz4hana

Happy #StackSaturday!⁣ ⁣ What is a scene from any book that you’d love to see come to screen?⁣ ⁣ I am looking forward to seeing the tank scene from Six of Crows! Fingers crossed that we get it.⁣ ⁣ I’d also love to see an Iron Rain from the Red Rising series and the wedding scene from ACOMAF. There are so many more possibilities, too - but I think all of those would be pretty amazing.⁣ ⁣ C H A L L E N G E S //⁣ #tumblesoverbooks / one author book stack⁣ #bookstababesjuly20 / characters with hobbies (Nikolai’s inventions!

Is there a book series you could win a game of trivia on?⁣ ⁣ I feel like I would do pretty well in a #Shadowhunter trivia game. As long as it’s only about the books. 😂🙈⁣ ⁣ If you could live during any era of the #ShadowhunterChronicles, when would you want to live? ⁣ ⁣ Part of me would love to live during the Edwardian Era with Cordelia, Lucie and the Merry Thieves – but I think I’d actually go with The Dark Artifices era. So much happens and changes, I would want to be there to help then and going forward!⁣ ⁣ C H A L L E N G E S / /⁣ #tumblesoverbooks / book i’d win at trivia⁣ #bookstababesjuly20 / book you can’t stop thinking about⁣ #allthebooksjuly20 / set at the beach or lake (TDA!)⁣ ⁣ #booknerd #bookishlife #bookaholic #bookhoarder #bookworm #bookstack #igreads #bibliophilelife #bookishpost #booksofinsta #booklover #bookstagrammer #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #mybookfeatures #bookcommunity #bookaddict #bookish #bookaesthetic #bookwormlife #booksbooksbooks #myfavoritethings #seeingthepretty #shelfie #cassandraclare https://www.instagram.com/p/CCT6IcSA0R0/?igshid=a5qt57h6xzn3

I made a July TBR! It’s been a long time since I’ve made a monthly TBR because I’m usually really terrible about sticking with them. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ I’m such a mood reader, I consider it a win if I make it through two books on a TBR. 😂 That said, I’d really like to get to all of these books this month. The pandemic still has me a few books behind on my reading goal (45/100) this year (after being ahead by seven books 😭), so I really want to catch up. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ I’m sure I’ll pick up some other stuff and read it as well, but hopefully I knock these off the list! ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ I’m actually partially through The Well of Ascension already, but my audiobook loan expired with the library, so I’ve been impatiently waiting to get it back again. 😂 I have A Song or Wraiths and Ruins on hold right now though and intend to start it today or tomorrow!⁣⁣ ⁣ CHALLENGES //⁣ #cozyascanbee / July #tbr⁣ #tumblesoverbooks / mid-year 2020 goal check in⁣ #bookstababesjuly20 / tbr⁣ #allthebooksjuly20 / july tbr⁣ #gothandliterature / tbr⁣ ⁣⁣ #bookstagram #booksofig #bookworm #bookphotography #bibliophile #booklover #bookaddict #instareads #bookobsessed #bookgram #booklife #readersofinstagram #bookish #beautifulbooks #booktag #booknerdigans #booksbooksbooks #vscobooks #prettybooks #bookdragon #myfavoritethings #bookstack #julytbr #readinggoals https://www.instagram.com/p/CCHgbzggDHA/?igshid=bw2slf21tpjl

How many books did you read in July?      I read twelve books this month! Pictured are the ones I own copies of! There's only two books (The Hero of Ages + Aurora Burning) I didn't read from my "official" July TBR at the beginning of the month - but I am listening to one of those now (The Hero of Ages) and I read a few more that weren't in that stack.      Here's my wrap up:  ⇥ Riot Baby by Tochi Onyebuchi (audio): ★★★★☆ // chilling, eye opening, a must read    ⇥ A Song of Wraiths and Ruin by Roseanne A. Brown (audio/physical): ★★★★★ // loved, a beautiful, immersive fantasy  ⇥ Divine Blood by Beck Michaels (ebook): ★★★★☆ // fun, action packed with a slow burn romance  ⇥ Fable by Adrienne Young (eARC): ★★★★★ // super atmospheric + gripping, loved  ⇥ From Blood and Ash by Jennifer L. Armentrout (ebook/physical): ★★★★★ // my fave of the month + new favorite! epic fantasy with super steamy, angsty romance  ⇥ The Well of Ascension by Brandon Sanderson (audio/physical): ★★★★☆ // a little slow in the middle but the ending was worth it  ⇥ The Rivals by Vi Keeland (ebook): ★★★★☆ // fun + spicy rivals to lovers romance  ⇥ Imagine Me by Tahereh Mafi (audio/physical): ★★☆☆☆ // a disappointing end with some uncomfortable elements  ⇥ The Kinder Poison by Natalie Mae (audio/physical): ★★★★☆ // fast paced + exciting, read for mysterious, broody princes  ⇥ The Betrothed by Kiera Cass (audio/physical): ★★☆☆☆ // bland, too much tell + not enough show, characters fell flat  ⇥ Nightfall by Penelope Douglas (ebook): ★★★★☆ // steamy, dark + exciting end to this series, i'm going to miss this series a lot  ⇥ The Girl the Sea Gave Back by Adrienne Young: ★★★☆☆ // missed its full potential, wish the world + romance were fleshed out more      C H A L L E N G E S //  #tumblesoverbooks / perfect ending  #bookscoasttocoastjuly20 / favorite july read  #cozyascanbee #bookstababesjuly20 #allthebooksjuly20 #gothandliterature #wildadventuresjuly20 #31flavorsofjuly / wrap up    #booknerd #bibliophile #bookaholic #bookhoarder #bookworm #bookstack #bookishpost #booklover #bookstagrammer #bookstagram #booklove #bookaddict #bookish #bookaesthetic #booksbooksbooks #myfavoritethings #julywrapup #shelfie https://www.instagram.com/p/CDU7NsNA0V7/?igshid=1mlpsgfq32vub

What was your last five star read?    Mine was From Blood and Ash by @jenniferlarmentrout. I LOVED this book and September cannot come any sooner. Not because my birthday is in September, but because the sequel, A Kingdom of Flesh and Fire releases on Sept 1st.    This book was SO good and has everything I look for in a fantasy novel. Epic storylines, characters I can empathize with, funny and relatable banter and most of all ... steamy romance.    Seriously guys, if you’re looking for a fantasy novel where the romance isn’t just a side quest, but integral to the plot (à la ACOMAF), this is one to check out.    I’m just going to go lay on the floor until the next one comes out.    C H A L L E N G E S //  #tumblesoverbooks / can’t live without   #bookstababesjuly20 / twist endings  #allthebooksjuly20 / good vs evil  #gothandliterature / up too late reading  #wildadventuresjuly20 / gorgeous royal    #booknerd #bookishlife #bibliophile #bookaholic #bookhoarder #bookworm #bookstack #booklover #bookstagrammer #bookstagram #booklove #mybookfeatures #bookcommunity #bookobsessed #bookaddict #bookphoto #bookish #bookaesthetic #booksbooksbooks #myfavoritethings #seeingthepretty #frombloodandash #jenniferlarmentrout #fantasybooks #shelfie https://www.instagram.com/p/CDAbN3RgRyU/?igshid=1jh36fqmj00v4
