✨What this week?✨ Happy Monday everyone! Loving that this morning started with Luna clearly wanting to know all about my book and not rushing to get ready for work instead. Here’s a few other things for this week! ✨What I’m Reading: I am devouring Fever Dream by Elsie Silver. Her books just suck you in. I am loving Julia and Emmett in this one so much (even if Emmett is a blonde) and can’t wait to get further into the story! ✨What I’m Watching: My husband and I bought Project Hailey Mary to watch at home (because date nights are hard with 2 kids at home) and both loved it. It even got my husband to listen to the audio book version which is a feat for him! He then listened to The Martian and we rewatched that movie last night! ✨What I’m Listening To: I have 2 very different vibes going with my audio books. I’m almost done with Sawyer by Jessica Peterson but I also just started Theo of Golden by Allen Levi. Cowboy Romance for the gym and random house task, Theo of Golden when I can actually focus haha. ✨What I’m Looking Forward to: There are only 4 teaching days left in the year! Our official last day isn’t until June 3rd with finals but basically this week is the end so I’m very excited! Add in some good weather coming up , my bookclub meeting, and some exciting life updates and things are looking good this week! What is something that you are looking forward to this week or something you are reading/listening to?

✨What this week?✨ Happy Sunday everyone! My husband and I just got back from our yearly kid free trip to somewhere new, and this year we went to the Thousand Islands region of NY and then up into Canada for a few days! So enjoy this photo of my kindle in Ottawa while I tell you about my week! ✨What I’m Reading: To Cage a Wild Bird is my physical book right now and I’m loving it so much. Also took it with us to visit an old penitentiary since it seems fitting to bring a book about a prison to the prison. ✨What I’m Watching: We watched reruns of The Office each night on our trip because we were exhausted and it’s a comfort show to relax to. Now that we are home we are trying to decide on a new show to try out! Any suggestions?! ✨What I’m Listening To: I started reading Lilac Girls this weekend when we took a break at the bath house but then I found it on Libby as an audiobook for the drive home so it’s a bit of both. Definitely heavy but an interesting book. ✨What I’m Looking Forward to: The final countdown to the school year! We are getting so close to the end so hopefully it goes by smoothly and quickly to wrap up the year! What is something that you are looking forward to this week or something you are reading/listening to? P.S. If you keep swiping you can see some highlight photos from our trip!

✨𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐯𝐬 𝐌𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐑𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭✨ Thank you for this fun idea @katie_thebookslayer 💜 It took a while to scroll back to my first couple of posts. This was the first stack that I posted and I’m so proud of past me figuring out how to add text to a photo. (This was my pre-Canva days.) I would love to see my friend’s first and most recent book stacks, so make sure you tag me in your post!

1 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 • 3 𝐐𝐮𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐬 🪄🐶🚽🧳🏥🛶🦄🦝 There’s some books/stories/characters/scenes that just stick with you. This book is all of that and more. There are parts you will laugh with (hello raccoons), parts you will get mad at (Amber), and parts where you want to give these characters a hug. ✨”In a world where you can choose anger or empathy, always choose empathy.” ✨”Be glad you don’t get it. It means your life has been a lot gentler than hers.” ✨”Sometimes I feel like the seasons could come and go and come and go, a hundred years could pass, a thousand, the ground could collapse under us, this house could crumble and go back to the earth, and we would still be standing here frozen in time, because every second I’m with you is eternal.” 🔖 If you’ve made it this far, this is me tagging you, to post your own!

ᗯᗩᑎT TO ᖇEᗩᗪ 🆆🅴🅳🅽🅴🆂🅳🅰🆈 💬How many physical books are on your TBR shelf? Thank you @bookmarked_by_sarah for tagging me in the How Tall is Your TBR Stack challenge. 💜 I tend to buy more trophy copies of books, and am hesitant to buy random books unless I get them for a steal. I think B&N was having 3 paperbacks for $25, and I went a little crazy. IG cut off my photo, but the bottom is just the ToG series. 🔖 Tagging some friends to post their TBR stacks, but if you’d like to play along, consider yourself tagged too!
