🖤 New Moon Deluxe 20th Anniversary Edition 🖤

She arrived and she is absolutely beautiful! I was waiting patiently for the mail all morning 🥹 Thank you @bookheronz for such speedy postage as always 🫶

New Moon by Stephenie Meyer is such a special book to me. Whenever I reread it, it takes me right back to when I read it for the first time as a teen and related to Bella so much (in my own angsty teen way) 🖤 . I always cry everytime I see the movie 🥲

This beautiful edition now has a lovely home in my Twilight collection. Im so happy! 🖤🖤🖤 by @starlitsaffy

🖤 The original UK Twilight cover

Have you met her? 🫣

While she absolutely does not embody Twilight and I rebuke her as Bella Swan 🤭, I still love this cover. There is something so spooky about her and I just love having her on my shelves 🖤

🖤 October tbr🖤

I hope you have all had a wonderful month so far!

I'm working my way through my tbr...
As you all know by now, the Farseer Trilogy by Robin Hobb has become my life now and I'm loving the 3rd book so far! 🖤
Im also almost finished Exit Party by Emily St John Mandel, which is strange and intriguing and I'm still not sure how it will all end 🖤

Have a great week friends! I'm going to be intensely finishing up the semester over the next few weeks, so if you see me here liking reels and having a generally good time.... no you didn't 🤭 by @starlitsaffy

It was my Bookstaversary this week! I cant believe I've been (relatively) consistent for a whole year 🤭

Here's some of my fave books and also some of my fave booksta accounts! This has only been so fun because of all the amazing people in this community supporting each other and sharing book recs!
I appreciate you! 🖤

When I first made this account I wasn't really sure if I wanted it to be just Twilight collection content or a mix of books (I even posted makeup looks and outfit checks in the early days... maybe i should bring that back? 😬). Anyway, I feel very appreciative of all the wonderful people on here who are so kind and supportive no matter if im posting a book review or an unhinged Twilight reel 😅🖤 by @starlitsaffy

🖤 September Recap! 🖤

As always, it has gone by so fast! I have ONE MONTH until the end of my degree and I probably won't sleep for the entirety of October 🥲 I'M FREAKING OUT GUYS!

This month I started the Realm of The Elderlings series by Robin Hobb and I honestly would recommend it to everyone! I have been completely obsessed with this series. I truly think of nothing else (to my own detriment 😅)

I really enjoyed everything I read this month. Shark Heart was surprisingly a wonderful, heartbreaking and thought provoking read. Grim Tidings was a very cute and well written cosy, supernatural romance. Opal is mandatory reading for any Maggie Stiefvater or The Raven Cycle fans 🖤

Included:

- Assassins Apprentice - Robin Hobb
- Royal Assassin - Robin Hobb
- Shark Heart - Emily Habeck
- Grim Tidings - B.K Borison
- Opal - Maggie Stiefvater
- Blood Over Bright Haven - M. L. Wang

I also made my way through the Mike Flanagan universe of tv shows and really enjoyed everything I watched! Seeing the same actors play differing characters in each series was really fun 😊🖤 (also not as terrifying and I was imagining!) by @starlitsaffy

🖤 Which Twilight edition is your vibe? 🖤

I always have a soft spot for the original apple cover because of the nostalgia! by @starlitsaffy

🖤 Assassin's Apprentice by Robin Hobb 🖤

I'm working my way through the 16 book Realm of the Elderlings series and I literally want to scream it from the rooftops 🗣🗣🗣

This is the first book of the Farseer Trilogy and follows a young boy named Fitz, who is the illegitimate son of a prince. As he grows up he ultimately gets dragged into the politics of court and has a lot of (mis)adventures along the way.

The characters in this book, the animals and the world they are set in feel so real and unique. The epilogue of this book made me so emotional! If you're on the fence about starting this series, I really recommend it! 🖤

🖤 Have a great week friends! 🖤 by @starlitsaffy

Book, reader, location 🫶

What is everyone reading today?

I am currently reading Royal Assassin by Robin Hobb and I honestly haven't been this obsessed with a book series in so long!

The weather is warming up down here so I've been making the most of my gorgeous view! 🖤🖤🖤 by @starlitsaffy

🖤 August Recap 🖤

Another month sped by!

This month I finished House of Flame and Shadow and I can't believe im all up to date now! Im sad its over! (For now!) Crescent City is honestly some of her best work! 🖤
I am also currently listening to the graphic audios of acotar for my reread. I'm noticing so many details the second time around!

King of Ravens by Clare Sager was a really fun read this month and I'd definitely recommend reading her Shadows of Tenebris Court series as well!

...okay so I didnt love Red Rising! 😭 which was disappointing and surprising! And I DNF Daggermouth! 😭 (really unpopular opinion i know!)

I hope you all have a wonderful week ahead! 🖤🖤🖤 by @starlitsaffy

Thrift find! 🖤 Realm of the Elderlings series by Robin Hobb 🖤 (Tiny Colin pup for scale)

I cant believe my luck! Id been hoping to find The Realm of the Elderlings for so long now and managed to find almost the whole set in one go! Im only missing 2 from the final trilogy!

Have you read this fantasy series? Im really excited to start it because I've only heard good things! (Im ready to be hurt again 🤭)

Hope you're all heading into a great weekend!🖤 by @starlitsaffy

🖤 Books you couldn't pay me to..... 🖤

This was actually really hard to choose!
