A little pink stack of bookish happiness 💕🤍

Thank you for the tag @secret_cat_library I haven’t done a pink stack in so long 😍 and have a few new additions to the collection 📚

Half term has officially started for us this weekend so lots of days out and play dates for me over the next week.
I’ll also be solo parenting for most of it as my husband is going away for a work conference.
So apologies if I go a little quieter on here compared to normal!

I have tagged a few of you to join if of you like 💖🌸

What are you up to this weekend?

Certain things spark a memory when you hear them,

I love when I hear someone talk about a book, and there are certain books when mentioned I always think of certain people.

It could be obsession over one, absolutely out of left field theories that make us all wonder, books that have made me cry, books that have made others cry, books I didn’t like, books that had me questioning myself or even books wrote by some of them.

Im so grateful for reading for all ur brings me but most of all the people it brought me, and these are just a few of them 🖤

I‘m not discounting the possibility this may be an elaborate prank but it appears Her Hidden Fire has been shortlisted as a Young Adult book of the year at the Irish Book Awards 🤯
Last night was a bit of a blur: I went to the absolutely beautiful @dublinromantasyclub beforehand (thank you so much for having me!) Checked my ‘fit (feeling some panic - I mean what is the dress code for ‘nomination thingy in a post office?’ It’s not like I’ve done this before unless you count going for class prefect when I was 14). Thankfully Storm Austen held off as I sprinted across town to the GPO to still be late because that’s how I roll. If I am ever punctual you will know my body has been possessed by aliens.

Watched the announcements, and there was Her Hidden Fire’s little dragon, yay! ✨ The very lovely @meabhagscriobh came to say hello and I managed to briefly act normal😍 Sadly then my true nature revealed itself, though Maebh very kindly did not get me thrown out for trying to start a fight. Needed to decompress (autism for the win) and had a quick scoot through the museum📪 Then met some extremely accomplished authors (I can say this as I am not in competition with them) @vickinatoro, @sarahjaybee and @jenniferbrayinsta😍 And because one must always be closing, managed to get a picture with both Her Hidden Fire and little sister Her Rising Flame (she’s out two weeks! She too deserves some love!)🔥

In all seriousness, I’m so grateful to the Irish Book Awards and An Post: they’ve created something that really goes all out to support Irish authors, booksellers, and book clubs and is an absolute joy. I can’t quite believe I get to be a part of it: I still meet people who think fantasy isn’t ‘real’ writing so it means a lot to see it being accepted as a genre just as capable of producing beautiful writing as any other. So: if you can, please do vote for someone, honestly it’s more craic that way 🔗https://form.typeform.com/to/klH57p6N - see also in my bio @irishbookawards

These accounts feature some of my favourite people I’ve had the pleasure of meeting, both in person and online, since joining this wonderful bookish community. 🫶🏻📚 It’s amazing to find your people who are just as crazy about books as you are! 😂❤️

There’s always plenty of laughter, theories, plot discussions, and, of course, chats about some of our favourite characters and book boyfriends! 🤭🔥

I’m so grateful to have found such lovely people to share my bookish obsession with. This community really is something special, and I love all the friendships, laughs, and bookish chaos that come with it! 🥹💗

Happy Sunday, everyone! 🥰☕📚 I hope your day is filled with cosy reading, good books, and a fictional character to obsess over 😂

✨ Character Art ✨
✨ Her Rising Flame ✨
Out in just over two weeks! - 3rd Nov (US) and 5th Nov (Ire/UK)
(Which when you think about it, is perfect gift-season timing for the fantasy fan in your life (Especially if that person is you 😬 I mean how else do you survive the madness?)

Ionáin’s very bad day(s). I wanted Her Rising Flame to be about consequences: what happens after the hero stands up to the bully and the credits roll? In Her Hidden Fire, Éadha, Ionáin and Gry all make life-changing decisions. Now, in Her Rising Flame they each must fight to survive the consequences of those decisions🔥

Ionáin’s arc was always based on this line from Patrick Kavanagh ‘...can a man find you when he lies with his face downwards and his nose in the rubble that was his achievement.’ Ionáin’s whole life has been defined by power; now he has to find out who he is when he no longer has any, and is no longer the golden prince loved by everyone. In a way, his was the arc I was most interested in writing, because I’ve always loved stories where a character has everything stripped from them, and they have to work out who they are when there’s nothing left ⛓️

I love how @badbandbanshee has managed to show so much of Ionáin’s story with just a sketch, and especially the way the silver threads line up with Éadha’s postcard, to show the lingering connection between them despite everything. Up next: Gry in a mask beneath a wolf moon, because it can’t all be suffering, you know🌕😍

Meanwhile, the lovely people at Great Island are working away behind the scenes on the TV adaptation; now we’ve character art for two of the three main characters, I’d love to know who people think would be a dream casting? (A girl can dream) ✨🌟

So I’m knee deep in writing the next book, with a deadline coming up. This means I currently don’t know what day/season/universe this is and my children have to reintroduce themselves to stop me mistaking them for interesting side characters I should do bad things to in the name of character growth 🧐

But then lovely @audiobookaddict reminded me this morning that it’s officially one month to go until Her Rising Flame comes out, so off I scuttled to the Interweb to find it at number 1 in Hot New Releases. Yay!🔥

And Her Hidden Fire is currently 99p on Kindle for the month of October AND number 1 in the chart for Young Adult Fiction on Prejudice ✨

So - if you’ve finished Threshing Day, have your pre-orders in months ago for the Court books and now have a tiny gap in your TBR to support a debut author, might I submit for your consideration a 99p ‘intriguingly dark fantasy’ written by someone able to pronounce Irish character names on account of you know, being Irish, speaking the language and not just knowing how to google 👀😬 🫶

The ONLY place we have ever seen the word “Un-Mate” used is in A Court of Wings and Ruin. 👀

I’ve checked all the books and all the series and there is no mention of it in any other book!

And here’s where it gets really interesting…

The only inner monologue we’re given around this moment is Feyre’s.

Lucien has just arrived at the House of Wind, and Cassian is chiming in on the conversation explaining to him how difficult it was living with Rhysand and Feyre when they were mated but un-mated.

And Feyre is the one whose thoughts we’re hearing while all of this is being relayed to Lucien.

So… WHAT is going on here, guys?!

Is this a certain Illyrian’s quote or is this one of our three sisters???

I need to hear your theories because I genuinely cannot stop thinking about this. 😂
