Happy Wednesday! When you start your week on a Tuesday, it seems like it just goes faster. Weird, right? . I just got this Totoro doll from my sister as a holiday gift. I love Totoro and this even has his umbrella! Super cute. ☺️ . I've been starting to get into this book. It's like watching an epic love story unfold in front of you. Every letter and every word is like a clue into their lives and how someone would ultimately leave it all behind. I'm excited to continue reading it! . #books #booklr #bookstagram #bookish #bookworm #booknerd #bookdragon #booklover #booklove #bookphoto #bookphotography #bookblog #bookblogger #booksofinstagram #bookstagramfeature #bookishfeatures #totoro #currentlyreading #swimminglessons #clairefuller #bookaddict #bookaholic #bookporn #read #reader #bibliophile

Waiting for my flight to Toronto. I just read that it’s going to be snowing while we’re there so this trip may not be as adventurous as I thought it might. However I know we’ll have a good time and find some fun stuff in Canada 🇨🇦!

Today is my last day at work before I take six weeks off on a sabbatical. I have the lucky privilege of working at a place that gives their longstanding employees such a luxurious benefit. I've already planned out my reading for that time. I'll be traveling to Toronto Friday evening. While I won't be there for very long (as I'm going to Hawaii next week), I hope to explore a city many of you #bookstagrammers live. No pressure to hang out! I'll just imagine you there as I browse a local bookstore.📚😬 . #books #booklr #bookstagram #currentlyreading #swimminglessons #clairefuller #bookphoto #bookphotography #bookworm #bookdragon #booklove #booklover #bookish #bookishthoughts #bookthoughts #bookblog #bookblogger #bookblogging #booknerd #bibliophile #lit #read #reader #applewatch #bookstagramfeature #bookishfeatures #booksofinstagram

Well, it's the last day of holiday office closures here in America so tomorrow I'll be back to slinging goods at the office. For now I'll take advantage of this rainy day and sit at home and read. How was everyone's New Year? . #books #booklr #bookstagram #bookish #currentlyreading #swimminglessons #clairefuller #bookphotography #bookphoto #booklover #booklove #bookworm #booknerd #booknerdigan #booksofinstagram #bookishfeatures #bookstagramfeature #totoro #bookmark #bookblog #bookblogger #bookofthemonth

Swimming Lessons by Claire Fuller is part of my #unreadbotmchallenge (Dec 2016) “Ingrid writes letters to her husband Gil about their marriage. But instead if giving them to him, she puts them in the books in the house (and there are thousands of books) And then she disappears from the beach, leaving Gil and her two daughters behind. Years later Gill thinks he sees her and has a fall. The daughters come home to take care of him. And learn some things about their parents.” There’s some wonderful writing here and some great lines about books and readers. It’s hard to find a character to like. Gil is an awful, irresponsible, selfish man. Ingrid abandons her children. And Louise with an awful betrayal. The story moves quickly and goes back-and-forth from Ingrid’s letters to the present. And an ambiguous ending. Worth a read. Book will definitely leave you with some emotion #swimminglessons #clairefuller #bookofthemonth #contemporaryfiction #literaryfiction #bookstagram #bookshelves #booknerd #bookhoarder #bookworm #sodacityreads #bookish #bookreview #hardcover #novel #bookaddict #bookcover #bookhaul #bibliophile #goodreads #homelibrary #fiction https://www.instagram.com/p/B16duwnA2V_/?igshid=1t4mafjef4btd

Bitter Orange by Claire Fuller is a well written story involving murder, decadence, lies, and love. This book goes well with a cup of earl grey tea.
