I actually hate Summer! 🥵 I’m so ready for chilly nights and cozy blankets and cardigans and hoodies and spooky movies and pumpkin spiced everything! Fall/Autumn is my favourite time of the year! I love the weather, the crunchy leaves, the smell, the holidays, the FOOD, and it’s my favourite time to sit outside to read! I’ll also be starting my first year of college in a few weeks! I’m studying Early Childhood Education at NSCC! I hope to keep up with my (online classes due to Corona) and my reading plans for September! I want to participate in the Adventures Through Wonderland readathon! I might also have a giveaway in my September/October plans... 🧐 (if you haven’t read Last Girls yet, I highly recommend you check it out! It was my favourite read of 2020 so far!) • What’s your favourite read of 2020? • Are you excited for Fall/Autumn? ✨ as a wannabe witch i grant you the power to finish your TBR’s in record time ✨ #lastgirls #demetrabrodsky #bookaholic #bookaesthetic #bookaddict #bookcommunity #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #canadianbookstagram #booksofinstagram #booksofig #booksofinsta #2020reads #booksandcoffee #booksandmugs #books #booklover #booksaremylife #booksaremagic #booksarelife #booksarelove #booksandtea (at Everywhere, USA) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEsr2UPAfy-/?igshid=5skwg79t8330
This is one of the coolest things any reader has ever done for my books! Thank you so much @bambi8books for making the Juniper Sisters from LAST GIRLS into SIMS characters! You, me, when the SHTF = EOTWBFL. 🍯🐦🧵 Posted @withregram • @bambi8books I created the Juniper Sisters from #LastGirls on #thesims4 last night! Book: Last Girls Author: @demebrodsky These characters were so magnificently written and I adored them so much 🥺 I had a blast creating them and their #tinyliving home! Honey and Birdie are artists, and Blue is an up and coming fashion designer! I can’t wait to actually start playing as them! 🤩 Let me know if you’d like to see any more posts like this! I’m a slut for The Sims 4 and I can lose myself in this game for days! If you have any suggestions for characters, let me know in the comments as well! 👇🏼👇🏼 #bookssims #demetrabrodsky #lastgirls #bookshelfie #preppers #booksofinstagram #booksofinsta #readersofinstagram #readersofig #honeyjuniper #bluejuniper #birdiejuniper #sisterhood #simstagram #sims4cc #simstagrammer #sims #simslegacy #bookrecommendations #survivalbooks #survivalfiction #doomsdaypreppers #prepperfiction #bookcharacters #torteen #macmillan #videogamecharacter https://www.instagram.com/p/CDeg3UeApAz/?igshid=15uafmaaz3rkl
“We’ve all been taught that the black sheep is a deviation from acceptable standards and something to be avoided. Still, when you see it amongst a herd, its lack of conformity is what steals your breath and captures your attention.” - Demetra Brodsky, Last Girls • • Happy Wednesday Bookdragons! I hope your day is going well. • • I want to know how everyone else is handling mail delays lately because my patience is just not there. I mean, I got Last Girls on release day last week which was great but I have other packages coming that have been somewhere in the postal system hole since mid-April. 😭 and I haven’t even gotten a shipping confirmation for my copy of Aurora Burning • • #lastgirls #demetrabrodsky #torteen #doomsdaypreppers #youngadultbooks #teenreads #bookmail #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookish #newbooks #booksbooksbooks #booknerd #booksofig #readersofinstagram #bookbloggersofinstagram #reading #bookquotes #bookaesthetic #booktography #bookcommunity #newbookstagram #bookishfeatures #alwaysreading #justread #tbrpost #quarantineandread #bookaholic #booksaremylife #instabooks (at Clintonville, Wisconsin) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAIteBnAEKq/?igshid=1r3c873lrmw61

Thank you @amy_fortheloveofbooks for this outstanding rendering of the LAST GIRLS cover!! It’s stunning, perfectly rendered. There’s something so haunting about seeing the Juniper sisters faceless. It speaks volumes to how people lump them together, and also leaves open the mystery of what they discover about themselves. At the same time, there is a scene in the book where they are half rendered, which makes your interpretation perfect!… * Posted @withregram • @amy_fortheloveofbooks Very excited about - Last Girls by @demebrodsky releasing May 5th. I first heard abut this book from @anastasiahopcusauthor and I just feel like it’s the perfect read right now . I’ve heard such wonderful buzz, and the warning that it will make you cry, which oddly enough makes we want it even more. I couldn’t wait to grab my paints for this one but due to the tiny size of their faces there was no way I could get the detail just right with the watercolor paints , so it was either throw a fit and wash it off ( yes, this does happen 🙈) or keep them faceless - so faceless won. I apologize for not getting it just like the cover! Paint time: 3hours 15 min Paints : @mehronmakeup #mehronparadise Sealing spray and primer : @nyxcosmetics Want to know more? Here is the book description : “No one knows how the world will end. On a secret compound in the Washington wilderness, Honey Juniper and her sisters are training to hunt, homestead;and protect their own. Prepare for every situation. But when danger strikes from within, putting her sisters at risk , training becomes real life, and only one thing is certain: Nowhere is safe. “ Publishing from @torteen * #LastGirls #yathriller #demetrabrodsky #doomsdaypreppers #demebrodsky #newleafliterary #lastgirlsdontfinishnice #torteen #bookstagram #bookaesthetic #bookishgirl #macmillanusa #prepperfiction #bookstagramfeature #prettybooks #bookishlove #booksofinstagram #bookish #bookishfeature #Coverlove #bookart #ireadya #booksbooksbooks #bookish #yabookstagrammer #Bodypaint #bodypainter #bodypaintings https://www.instagram.com/p/B_Xnps1Aegw/?igshid=1rgvf1we8t7k8
