QOTD: Have you ever taken a book stack of a series only to realise after you edit that you arranged the books in the WRONG ORDER????? 😩 This photo is bugging me because I got books 2 and 3 mixed around 😅. Yes, I am 100% that person who will rearrange books in a bookstore so the series is in the correct order 🙈. I also cannot bear to tear my series apart for the sake of pretty shelves. In other news I love this series and hope to reread it soon(ish) //CHALLENGES// #LMSDecember2020 - Hope to read #RFABDec20 - December TBR #AmpersandDec20 - TBR #AMagicalDecember2020 - Belle’s Library: December #TBR #BookNerdsAndFriends - Holiday Cheer: December TBR //HASHTAGS// #penrynandtheendofdays #endofdays #angelfall #worldafter #paperback #bookstack #susanee #reread #underratedbooks #bibliophilebuzz #bookdragon #angelbooks #postapocalyptic #yalit #yafiction https://www.instagram.com/p/CIP9MGQAnPA/?igshid=2k8wj98l0t2

QOTD: What is your least favourite but also favourite part of bookstagram? That starts as a bit of a downer for Christmas Eve but I was struggling to come up with a caption and that partially inspired the question😅 So least favourite thing... the struggle to come up with captions, especially twice a day 😫The way it feels like you have to change your habits and routine just to try and get even a little bit of engagement to feel successful 😭And then there are all the aesthetic things and books ownership you feel like you need to conform to. Plus judgement some people give you for enjoying certain (usually the popular) books 😒 And then things I like. The talent and gorgeous photos and unique styles 😍 Seeing book recs, especially when it's love for older and less well known books 🥰 The support and positivity of the community (I'm lucky and have not yet seen any real negativity first hand). The support has really been a strong this past week since I opended by bookmark store, @booktineusbookworms. Speaking of, you should totally buy some of my bookmarks 😉 Link to the store is in my bio. //CHALLENGES// #BookishBellesDec20 - Christmas Eve: Cozy reads #ChristmasXBookshelves20 - Merry Christmas: Books that make you happy #AMagicalDecember2020 - The Nutcracker: Festive reads & cozy vibes #LMSDecember2020 - #ThrowbackThursday to Six of Crows and the Ravka Map) #CourtOfReading - Christmas Eve //HASHTAGS// #openbook #bookmap #fantasymap #bookmark #fictional #booktineusbookmarks #six of crows #ravka #ketterdam #bookishmap #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #ausyabloggers #bookworm #bookdragon #booknerdigan #booklover https://www.instagram.com/p/CJKLWZMgvXg/?igshid=ip9wcpy37xm5

“You cannot shy away from yourself. Look the world in the eye, and it can do nothing to hurt you.” - Winterspell . . 🌟QOTD: Is there a book that reminds you of winter? Or what’s your favorite part about winter? . . Happy #SockSunday friends!! I hope everyone has had a wonderful weekend!! I am exhausted from working but am debating going back today to help since we are short again 🤣 I know I’m crazy!! One book that always reminds me of winter is Winterspell by Claire LeGrand! It’s a nutcracker retelling that I randomly found some years ago and absolutely loooooved!! I’m guessing something happened though because it reads like there should be another book but alas I don’t think there will be and I am so so sad because I want to know how it’s supposed to end!! Yes it has a semi conclusive ending but soooo much is still left open and I want more!! I really need to find out stuff like that before I read and fall in love with a book!! What are some of your favorite wintery books? Have a great day!! . . #JollyBooksmas - Stuffed stockings #shelfiesunday #bookbookowlfestivities - Nutcracker: classic book #FandomBookishDec20 - Favorite genre #amagicaldecember2020 - Longclaw: long books #courtofreading - new books #bookscoasttocoastDec20 - recommend a book #winterwonderlandreads - Santa Claus: jolly characters . . #winterspell #clairelegrand #booksandsocks #winterreads #ventureswithbooks #rainbowbookshelf #rainbowbooks #rainbowshelf #bookblogger #readersofinsta #igbooks #booksofinstagram #booklovers #booksofig #readersgonnaread #bookpics #bookclub #bookstagrammer https://www.instagram.com/p/CJTn-2IA_5J/?igshid=1exia1juv0el

QOTD: Tell me your underated fave character from Throne of Glass? Or if you haven't read it, your favourite underrated character in general. Mine is always Elide. She kind of flies under the radar because she's quieter but she's so brave and smart and strong in a different way to the brazen, confident nature of Aelin, Manon, and Lysandra. Everyone underestimates her. Plus I love the romance with Lorcan a lot 🥰 #reppost Featured Candle: Terrasen, #gifted from @sparkandsparrowperth I'm counting down the days until my tin of this arrives so I can start burning this candle! I don't want to burn the only one I have yet 😂. The scent is SO GOOD, I love the citrus in it a lot. Keen to get yourself some candles? I have a link in the S+S store in my Linktree. Rememebr to use the code BOOK10 at checkout to save 😉 //CHALLENGES// #BookBookOwlFestivities - Buddy the Elf: Fave colour #WonderlandBookChallenge - Hot Chocolate: A story that warms your heart #RFABDec20 - Need their own book (THE KIDS!) #BestReadsof2020 - Favourite fantasy #AMagicalDecember2020 - Aladdin’s Lamp: Bookish world you wish you could visit https://www.instagram.com/p/CIfTlVpAj7G/?igshid=6zgb411rpmb9

🔥Happy release day to @melissa_wright_author and Between Ink and Shadows!!! 🔥 . . 🌟QOTD: do you read darker books? . . Hello my friends and happy 1st day of December!! I am SO SO excited because this beautiful book is out in the world today!!! I am so excited to dive into this dark world of magic contracts and blood debts!! I am a big sucker for darker books especially if there is some romance too 😈!! Here’s the synopsis: . . Nimona Weston has a debt to pay. Her father's dealings with the dark society known as the Trust cost Nim her freedom. There's one way out of the contract on her life and that's to bide her time and pay the tithes. But when the Trust assigns Nim to a task in the king's own castle, her freedom is not the only thing she'll risk. . Warrick Spenser has a secret. As king's seneschal, he should be the last soul in Inara to risk association with dark magic, but long-hidden ties to the Trust are harder to shed than simply cutting the threads. When the Trust sends a thief to his rooms, Warrick thinks he's finally found a way to be rid of them for good. But Nimona Weston is hiding secrets of her own. . . #JollyBooksmas - Advent calendar: TBR #bookbookowlfestivities - festive decorations #FandomBookishDec20 - December TBR #amagicaldecember2020 - Belle’s library: TBR #courtofreading - Dec TBR #winterwonderlandreads - snowday: book with white cover . . #betweeninkandshadows #melissawrightauthor #ventureswithbooks #rainbowbookshelf #rainbowbooks #rainbowshelf #booksbooksbooks #bookloversofinstagram #readersofinsta #bookflatlay #readingtogether #bookshelf #alwaysreading #readingismagic #bookstagrammer #bookrecommendations https://www.instagram.com/p/CIQrHYlAbpl/?igshid=1gdsu919vxicg
