Reader. I suck at art and writing but do it anyway.
Fable called me a "Paranormal Romantic" and I'm still riding that high

⚔️ Flatlay Friday ⚔️

I haven't done one of these in forever, mostly because I forget to do them on Friday and I can't break the rules of the week.

This week's flatlay is featuring swords. Any cover with a stabby on it went in the flatlay! There's probably more. But im lazy. This will do.

Peep the last photo for my manager making sure I'm doing a good job 🐈‍⬛

WHAT'S YOUR GO TO OCTOBER READ 🗣️

Also, by an overwhelming landslide, Bernadette is a hot dog. Or a hog dog. I will never forget I misspelled hot dog, I'm so glad the Internet can see all my mistakes.

I started this Instagram to yap about books and be a part of the book community, and I loooove silly polls and questions, so big thank you to everyone who entertained me by answering and voting (there will be more, so, so many more, I am sorry I don't make the rules)

“But grief and happiness can exist simultaneously. That’s just what it is to be alive.”

“I want to live without anticipating the worst, to breathe without fear of the moment I stop, to exist in time without worry of wasting it. I want my past. I want my present. I want my future. My time. My life. This life. This world. This shitty, messed-up, amazing, beautiful world.”

I buddy read Kiss Slay Replay with @jon_reads_too_much and NO SURPRISER, we both loved it. Even if I technically didn’t buddy read it and read it all right away. Oops. But you guys know I love @rachelharrisonsghost 😩

Anyways, this was like Groundhog Day with the best bloody vibes. Time loop stories make me nervous because I worry I’ll get bored but there was enough going on that kept me eating up every word. If you want a dark comedy with a little murder then this is a must. 5 stars of course.

ALSO meet my newest buddy, Bones🥹 you will be seeing a lot of him. This might turn into his account. My whole personality is about to revolve around him.

I hope you all are enjoying your Friday and have some great, spooky reads lined up!👻

September reading wrap up🖤
I honestly thought I wasn’t going to read much this month. Ope.

Everything I read was fantastic. I still need to review a few of these for you guys but a great month overall.

I feel like King Sorrow was the best book I read this month, the kind that sticks with you long after you close it. BUT I enjoyed myself the most reading Pines and Small Spaces. Those were both one night reads that I was just totally invested in.

You also MUST read Kiss Slay Replay and The Place Where They Buried Your Heart this month. Recommend a thousand times.

What was your favorite book from September?

📚 ✨ Title Stack ✨ 📚

I was challenged by @vampsreads to have a crack at this one, where every title adds a new word. I only made it to 7, I know I have some long titled books but do you think I can find them?

Thanks for the challenge @vampsreads, im tagging a few to join the fun ✨

Happy Friday!
Getting ready to start a buddy read with the love of my life, @jon_reads_too_much 🖤

Do you do buddy reads? I’m horribly unreliable because you might ask me to do one and I’ll be like “there’s NOTHING I want more in this world then to read that” and then tomorrow comes and I changed my mind. Mood reader problems.

BUT we are both hoes for @rachelharrisonsghost so this was an easy one.

What’s your current read?

✨ Naked Friday flatlay ✨

Avert your eyes if you can't handle nakedness. But these are some of my beauties.

Thank you @vampsreads for the tag on this one, I love a chance to show off a beautiful hardcovers.

Some of the designs are too stunning to cover up, but I'm too nervous to not use the dust covers.

Are you a coverer? Or a naked bookster?

Peep the bonus picture of Hamish wondering wtf I'm doing with his bed.

Tagging for funsies, even if you're not tagged join in the fun ✨

✨ Bookish grip ✨

I was tagged by the lovely @pagethatreads like forever ago for this challenge.

Its always harder than it looks 😂
Making content has been kinda meh for me lately. I don't love it, I don't hate it. I'm just existing and putting up stuff here and there.

Ive included things important to me for reading. We've got a water bottle, lip balm, chocolates (gotta have a lil snackie while reading), headphones (sometimes I like an epic background song), a toy for my daughter to distract her and leave me alone for 5 mins, for some reason a pokemon card? Oh and the book. That's important too I guess.

Ive not long started the Knave and the Moon, im so excited to be back with Bartholomew.

Happy reading friends!

Tagging a few but invite is open to all, join or don't up to you 💖

💙✨ Sapphire Stack ✨💙

I was challenged by @thefantasyromantic to do a Birthstone Stack in August. Unfortunately, I forgot 😅
So I'm doing September's Birthstone instead 😁

Sapphires are one of my favourite stones, showing off beautiful colours in such vastly different shades. Personally, I love the dark blue ones.
Isn't it funny, how materialistic objects with all their natural flaws and differences aren't ever considered weird or ugly?
If only humans could hold those views about each other...
Everyone reading this, keep being different, keep being you. Keep being your own unique shade 💙

What's your favourite Birthstone?

Tagging a few people to join the fun, do or do not your call! If you aren't tagged, join in anyway xx

💖 Matchy Matchy 💖

For the first time in like forever I got my nails done.
Its subtle, but the sparkle is epic ✨ I'm a sucker for glitter.

So I thought let's do a matchy stack that @vampsreads always absolutely nails and always invites me to play along.

Again I've realised just how many colours I'm missing on my shelf. I'll have to buy more books to fix it 🤷😂

Happy Friday my friends, I hope you have a good weekend 🤘

✨📚 Red Stack 📚✨📚

I was tagged by @pagethatreads and @vampsreads in a red and black stack. If you haven't seen theirs, go take a peek. These ladies do some impressive work 👏

I love a red and black combo. Easily one of the best mixes around. Maybe that's the elder emo in me. It's not a phase.

What's your fave colour combo?
