🍂FIVE TOP FIVES🍂

It took me way too long to come up with my favourite movies! The 90’s-early 2000’s had way too many good movies, or maybe I’m biased due to the nostalgia they bring me!

Do we have any of the same favourites? If not, let me know some of your favourites of these categories!

I tagged some friends to do the five top five challenge on their feed (no pressure to do so!) 🫶🏻

Happy FriYAY! ✨️

Mentally I'd like to *be here now* but really, I have to go to the basement and work a big girl job so I can buy more books, I mean pay bills. 😅🙃

But at least it's Friday! 💃 I'm just over halfway through Iron Flame and don't want it to end 🥹 but then I'm onto Meet me at the Lake and entering my summer romance era, via reading the physical books taking up space in the nursery that I "couldn't wait to read" years ago 😂

Happy Friday! ❤️

What are you reading this weekend?

Thank you @chaptersandalex for the wonderful ⭐️ 5-star review ⭐️ of 𝘐 𝘋𝘪𝘥𝘯’𝘵 𝘉𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘦𝘷𝘦 𝘏𝘪𝘮! She said:

“I don’t usually give five star ratings to nonfiction books, but this was nothing short of phenomenal. I was instantly hooked, and not only was the book insanely informative but also so well written that I was just as invested as I would be in a fictional story. I would say this is a must-read for anyone invested in how children learn to read, and promoting strong reading skills from an early age. I especially appreciated the format the author employed, where she interspersed her recollection of her memories with facts she learned since the memory took place, clearly discernible with italics. This is a must read.”

𝘐 𝘋𝘪𝘥𝘯’𝘵 𝘉𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘦𝘷𝘦 𝘏𝘪𝘮, a mother’s memoir of how schools fail to teach children to read. Available wherever books are sold August 20, 2024.

✨ happy summer solstice ✨

Summer is here and she has made it VERY clear… it has been an absolute SCORCHER of a week here! 🥵

Sharing my annual summer reading list in the form of a floral flat lay! Definitely one of the posts I most look forward to planning and sharing with you!

Haven’t been gravitating toward summer romcoms as much as I have in the past when the weather gets warm so expect to see a bit of everything here in the coming months…

Without further ado, here are the books on the radar:

🌸 Strange Sally Diamond by Liz Nugent
🌸 Yinka, Where is Your Huzband by Lizzie Damilola Blackburn
🌸 Anna O by Blake Matthew
🌸 Scythe by Neal Schusterman
🌸 The Dead Romantics by Ashley Poston
🌸 Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin
🌸 Delilah Green Doesn’t Care by Ashley Herring Blake
🌸 The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy by Megan Bannen
🌸 Butcher and Blackbird by Brynne Weaver
🌸 The Change by Kirsten Miller

I’ve tagged some friends to play along, but I invite everyone to join in! Would love to see your floral flat lays + your summer TBR/reading plans!

💭 what book is at the top of your summer reading list?
