I was tagged by @the.ramblingbookworm @theperksofbeingemma and @lydiasbooknook to share a few of my favorite things. Thank you 💕 Some favorites: My books of course - I don’t have any one favorite book because how can I choose when I’ve only read a fraction of all the books out there. All my plants - I think I have around 25 now? I hope to one day have a library completely filled with plants My Olympus Trip 35 camera - I’m really picky when I use this camera because I’m so afraid to break it. I also have a little Fujifilm instant camera and disposable cameras that I like to capture special moments on Traveling - I love to travel and my roadtrip out west might have been my favorite trip yet. I have a a sticker from @rrroastingco , a sticker from Zion, and an old Lake Powell postcard my boyfriend found in a gas station My roller skates - pretty straight forward. I like to skate! It’s a lot of fun learning new tricks and it’s my only form of exercise Good scents!! - shown through a perfume I wear. It’s so important to me that things smells good. Especially myself and my room. I always have perfume on and some scented melts for my room I tagged a few people to give this challenge a go if you’d like • • • • • • • • • • • 🏷 #myfavoritethings #booktag #bookishchallenge #rollerskates #plants #plantsofinstagram #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #booksofig #readersofinstagram #reading #booksbooksbooks #kurtvonnegut #samanthaschweblin #bookishtag #bookish #bookishlove #nycreads #pilea #impalarollerskates #goodreads #bookblog

When you have a book you really love and is dripping with all kinds of wisdom, do you; a) keep it clean and pristine OR b) highlight it to hell, bend it all types of sideways and read it everywhere including in the bath, where it may fall in the water and rip the corner off? 🔻 Comment below 🔻

How are we all today? Has it been snowing where you are? It’s been snowing where I am and I love it! Allows me plenty of reading time and also time to engage in challenges such as the one @bookswithvic very kindly, tagged me to take part in! Here is my attempt at the #bigbookstack challenge (any book over 500 words) I’ll be honest, I cheated just a liiiitle bit as I haven’t actually read the Mirror and the light yet BUT I plan to! Next month... maybe 🤔 Thank you @bookswithvic for tagging me! This was fun! Anyway, I’ve tagged some people, but feel free to engage as you wish! #davidolugosa #blackandbritish #themirrorandthelight #hilarymantel #stephenking #bagofbones #thegoldfinch #donnatartt #bringupthebodies #theblindassassin #margaretatwood #rohintonmistry #afinebalance #readersofinstagram #bookstagram #non-fiction #bookobsessed #winterreads

🇮🇷 ✨Embroideries #graphicnovel ✨ Marjane Satrapi ✨ Author of Persepolis Scintillating and risque in theme, humorous in tone, and engrossing in style, Embroideries from Marjane Satrapi can easily be ranked as one of my top reads for January 2021. This being my first Satrapi work, I was not sure if I'd like it, although her critically acclaimed memoir, Persepolis, did conjure high expectations for me. And surely Satrapi lives up to all the hype! Enveloped in a drowsy afternoon, the Iranian women in Embroideries partake in juicy gossips and sharing of secrets about sex, virginity, and the vagaries of men, all over tea. Common perception might dictate conservative, prudish, and demure women in such traditional societies (India being one of them), but this novella is a punch in the gut that talks about the sexual desires and freedom that women rightfully deserve and revel in. The characters are bold, humorous, and daring in their pursuit of pleasure - and I loved how none of the women had any qualms about it! The story also talks of the frivolous pride society takes in the virginity of women and the extent some have to go to abide by this expectation of the society - it will absolutely enrage you, but how Satrapi tackles such a grim topic, will surely bring a crooked smile to your face. You'll also find why this one's titled Embroideries! 😏 Read in one brisk go, I found it quite entertaining and now I'm sitting here drawing parallels with Erotic Stories for Punjabi Widows (which I recently finished) and the Indian film, Lipstick Under My Burkha! These are tales of feminism that normalise female desire and open larger dialogues about liberation for women in every sense of the word. 10/10 would recommend! ✨ #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #igreads #iran #bookrecommendations #read #readersofinstagram #reader #reading #book #booklover #bookdiscussion #readergram #books #bookreviews #goodbooks #bookish #bibliophile #readwomen #literaryfiction #diversifyyourbookshelf
