hii bestie babes! truthfully, this is a HEFTY goal to set considering i’m behind on my reading goal for the first time, but we’re gonna go with the flow, and what will be, will truly be.

if there’s one thing i’ve learned this year, it’s to give myself grace/focus on quality over quantity —

i am excited to try my best to read these, even if i only do 4-5 of them. i’m also excited to revisit my faves because i’ve missed them and this is the time to let nostalgia take over 🥹

quick updates (other than reading) —

🎧 i’ve got some new tunes on rotation lately and that includes revisiting my love for NF with his newest album and discovering a new band to me: citizen soldier

📺 it’s finally time to start watching christmas movies and i’m trying to do a rewatch of the harry potter movies weekly leading up to christmas

✨ i put up my tree this weekend and i am truly obsessed - hoping to get it all decorated and enjoy all of the cozy reading vibes it brings

shoutout to @galacticreads for tagging me in this challenge - tagging some fellow besties as well!

thank you to these wonderful girlies for being a part of this collab - i love you guys so much, and the opportunity to yap about this amazing band with y’all! 🥹

hi besties!! happy wednesday! i’ve had this post idea on my brain for awhile now and am so happy to finally bring it to life!

the absolute best thing about joining bookstagram is for sure the community of amazingly wonderful friends i’ve come to know. you guys are the absolute best, and i’m always so grateful to have found this welcoming little corner of the internet.

if insta allowed, i would put every single one of y’all in this post 🥹 but nonetheless, here are some of my besties, so check them out and give them a follow because trust me, they’re fantastic!

• • • my trope tree feat. bookstagrammers
🎄🎁✨🎅🏻🤶🏻🌙🍪🦌

this is one of the cutest christmas trends and you know i just had to put my spin on it too!

i’m not sure if i was supposed to go in order of most favorite to least favorite trope on the tree, but honestly they’re all pretty much equal in my mind 🤭

i also tagged some of my fellow besties who i’m so grateful for - if insta didn’t have a limit, i would seriously tag ALL of you guys! thank you for being with me on this little book journey. i love you all so much! 🫶🏻

💬 what’re some of your top tropes?

❤️🤍 Candy Cane Book Stack 🤍❤️

I love doing book stacks, but I especially love doing holiday themed stacks! Thank you so much to @unwellbutwellread for tagging me in this! (And just as a note, she did hers way better so you should all go check it out!)

I can’t believe I didn’t have any candy cane themed things to add to the photo, but it still turned out okay with the red and white Christmas decor I think!

What is your favorite Christmas treat? Let’s chat about it in the comments! 🙌

Also, I tagged a few people, but feel free to join in if you see this and you weren’t tagged! ☺️🎄
