Friends, I wrote a long-as-heck caption for this photo already but my phone died so I guess Instagram just *had* to delete it. Seriously, I was close to the maximum character limit. 😭 Anyways... what are you all ashamed of? I’m ashamed of the fact that I haven’t freaking read this book yet (and also the fact that my dusty self made this mistake) because this actually published half a month ago and I didn’t read it on time!! Nice👌🏼(I am so sorry Scholastic please don’t hate me) I was supposed to buddy read it with @foreverandeverly_ but that didn’t work out because... I didn’t read it. I used to be on the reading grind for the first months and then I fell into a reading slump???? By the way, I accidentally took two pictures of this sooo I will be posting another one w/ my thoughts after I read it!! . Exams are in three weeks and I want to SOB multiple times. I’m terrified because I haven’t started reviewing yet and I feel like I’ve blanked on the majority of my classes. Did the past year even happen?? Apparently, the answer is yes and I’m not a freaking fan. I have four exams I’m going to be taking and I don’t think I’ve retained a large majority of it. PLEase pray for me ok guys. . Also, I want to clarify that this rainbow stack isn’t meant for Pride Month at all— especially because not all of the books within are lgbtq+. I stg when I have enough gay books to make a rainbow, I will do it and I will use That rainbow for all of my photos instead. But for now, I’ll have to unfortunately use this rainbow because I’m so broke. I actually took all of my photos w/ this shelf in early May but never posted any of them,, I think I’m going to have a majority of my photos w/ a rainbow stack now as my theme? I don’t even know what I’m doing with bookstagram anymore. . #books #bookstagram #prettybooks #prettybookpics #bookstagrampic #aestheticbooks #blogger #cutebooks #authors #bookishfeatures #bookfeature #booksofig #booksbooksbooks #ilovebooks #bookaesthetic #bookobsessed #flatlaynation #flatlay #bookphotography https://www.instagram.com/p/ByTgBafg-Sh/?igshid=1gkhn16qiumu8

What’s the longest book you own or have read?? 🐉 I haven’t read Priory yet, but it’s definitely the largest book I own. I think its size is like, one of The Known Facts now. BUT IT’S SO LARGE. . I’m currently headed to lacrosse practice and I was like “why not post????” soooo I did, and I think I’m going to try to post daily even though I’m literally so insecure about Instagram y’all?? I feel like my account never grows even though it’s so much effort to take photossss. Also, I think every separate time I take photos, my theme changes a lot and it’s so weird. . I can’t believe summer is almost here??? It was literally AUTUMN yesterday. Even though I love summer vacation and the break, I’m terrified because I know all I’m going to do is sleep all day and be super lethargic, which I DO NOT LIKE. I’m also so scared of the years to come omg. Responsibility?? What is that. Anyways, hopefully I’ll be posting tomorrow, but I can’t post my march haul (& tbr) until the weekend. . #books #bookstagram #prettybooks #prettybookpics #bookstagrampic #aestheticbooks #blogger #cutebooks #authors #bookishfeatures #bookfeature #prioryoftheorangetree #orangebooks #hardcovers #bookaddict #bookworm #samanthashannon #bloomsbury https://www.instagram.com/p/Bw7nBvYnG1c/?igshid=cvc35u32uirn

I really like this photo??? IT’S A REALLY NICE COLOR COMBINATION. . Thank you to CandleWick press for sending me this book! It’s an anthology of short stories ahhh! .

Q: Do you like short stories or novels better? . #books #bookstagram #prettybooks #prettybookpics #bookstagrampic #aestheticbooks #blogger #cutebooks #authors #bookishfeatures #bookfeature #theradicalelement #anthology #candlewick

I’ve found the most colorful pair of pants EVER. I have so many pajama pants that I never wear. Where are they coming from. Does my dresser produce them? . BOOKS FEATURED ✨ Down and Across // Arvin Ahmadi — I enjoyed this book, although it fell a little short for me! The love interest seemed like a manic pixie girl at first.. ✨ Reign of the Fallen // Sarah Glenn Marsh — I haven’t read this one yet but the main character is bisexual and I’m sooo excited to read it in approximately 6 years. ✨ The Accidental Bad Girl // Maxine Kaplan — I love thriller-type spiral-y contemporary novels like this one. It was exciting and interesting to see the main character basically lose control of her life. ✨ A Taxonomy of Love // Rachael Allen — This book was... interesting. It showed the relationship between the main characters from different ages, so you could kind of see it progressing. I didn’t really like the characters though? . ALSO I’ve decided to stop tagging authors so now I can write my reviews even if they’re negative!! And also now I can screenshot my whole picture without that “tag” icon in the corner. . Q: What did you eat today? 🍚🍗 I ate rice and beef and green beans and gai choy. . #books #bookstagram #prettybooks #prettybookpics #bookstagrampic #aestheticbooks #blogger #cutebooks #authors #bookishfeatures #bookfeature #pastelbooks #pajamas #pjs #downandacross #crosswords #diversebooks #reignofthefallen

These were kind of disappointing reads oops!! . DOWN AND ACROSS looked so interesting and honestly Fiora was kind of 2D for the first half of the book, although she gets more development and backstory later on. . Before I Let Go is also really interesting because mystery!! Death!! What!! But it wasn’t really well-developed and the writing was flat?? . RIP ME LMAO. . #books #bookstagram #bookpics #prettybookpics #bookfeature #bookfeaturepage #bookstagramfeature #prettybooks #bookpictures #youngadultbooks #youngadult #ya #fiction #beforeiletgo #mariekenijkamp #thisiswhereitends #downandacross #crossword #crosswordpuzzles #diversity
