“Food was how my mother expressed her love. No matter how critical or cruel she could seem—constantly pushing me to meet her intractable expectations—I could always feel her affection radiating from the lunches she packed and the meals she prepared for me just the way I liked them.” Michelle Zauner of Japanese Breakfast’s touching memoir about losing her mom to stage IV Squamous cell carcinoma. Chronicling her at times volatile relationship with her mother, and how food connected them to their culture but also each other. I loved that though this book deals with loss and grief I didn’t find it to be over-wrought or depressing. Zauner’s beautiful writing has a lightness to it so that instead of being bogged down with emotion you can focus on the mother-daughter relationship at the heart. A hungry read. 🍱🥡🍚🍜🥟 “How cyclical and bittersweet for a child to retrace the image of their mother. For a subject to turn back to document their archivist.” . . . . . #bookstagram #booklovers #booksbooksbooks #bookstagramza #southafricanreaders #bookstagrammer #bookstagramsouthafrica #readersofinstagram #sareaders #literaryfiction #igreads #bookheaven #readerofinstagram #bookish #booksonbooksonbooks #belletristbabes #read #nextread #cryinginhmart #michellezauner #japanesebreakfast #picador #alfredaknopf #penguinrandomhouse #panmacmillan (at Durbanville) https://www.instagram.com/p/CfoBmwwr1-H/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🖊Una storia travolgente a tratti triste ma una storia di vita affascinante che ripercorre altre epoche. Il dolore della Cina durante la guerra e la fine con le bombe di Hiroshima e Nagasaki. Morti, dolore, perchè la guerra è la cosa più lacerante che ci sia. La povertà e la fuga che ripercorre quel periodo davvero doloroso. 🔗Recensione intera sul sito. #bookloversday #bookstack #readeveryday #bibliophile #bookblogger #biblio #stackofbooks #bookphotography #ofquietmoments #fromwhereisit #booksofinstagram #readreadread #whatiwear #booklover #booksonbooksonbooks #towerofbooks #bookpile #ilovereading #bookworm #bookbath #bookstagramfeatures #bookblogger #bookishfeatures https://www.instagram.com/p/CdLFErvKG23/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Last year the folks from @bust_magazine reached out to me asking for a list of 5 books and as you see I had to be a little contrary and give them 6.
I also turned it into a mini writing assignment for myself and wrote out the reasons why I chose each one, I named it 5 Books for Bust and shared it on my Patreon.
Click www.Patreon.com/TFBWL to join
I also spent a couple months looking out for it, and then promptly forgot out about it because LIFE.
They shared my list yesterday 🎉 - “Righteous Recommendations from Olaronke Akinmowo”
it’s a cute teeny tiny feature, linked on my Twitter 📝
But more importantly, I noticed that we can have some serious Word Play, and craft sentences and stories with their titles.
For instance -
⭐️Black futures are filled with thick riotous girls, church ladies and sister outsiders who live secret lives with the stars and the Blackness between them.⭐️
♥️🌹📚♥️🌹

☁️ #bookshelfsunday ☁️ QOTD: have you done double feature in the movie theaters? What are you doing (or did do) today? I did not think I would post another Shelfie Sunday for a bit but then I decided to redo my TBR shelf. I love love loved my rainbow shelf, but the up keep with books getting off my shelf to then find something that would work was something I didn’t feel like keeping up with. So here it is! Still double stacked y’all. 😅 I’m working on it. I promise. I am really satisfied of how this came out actually. Because I feel like it’s easier for me to focus on a smaller stack than seeing so many double layered and stacked? Which I guess it still is and now I’m just rambling. 🤪 How do you go through your TBR? ☁️ |Reading update| I was stopped in the last 70 pages to clean the house, went back was able to read 30 pages more and then had to set things up for my sister. So I’m finally reading the last 40 pages of Seasons of the Storm!!! I like how it’s coming about. Jack irritates me. Like I feel like he needs a nice slap in the face to wake up. 😂 idk if I’m supposed to feel this way, but I do. I also started Where Dreams Descend. So far I like Kallia. ☁️ |Tags| #shelfies #shelfiesunday #shelfie #bookshelf #yabookshelf #yalit #shelvesofinstagram #yaseries #booksonbooks #booksonbooksonbooks #bookstacks #stacksonstacks #youngadultbooks #booknerd #bookdragon https://www.instagram.com/p/CVayUD2rJKg/?utm_medium=tumblr

🌟 G I V E A W A Y 🌟 . 💬 What was your last 5-star read? . Shiori, the only princess of Kiata, has a secret. Forbidden magic runs through her veins. Normally she conceals it well, but on the morning of her betrothal ceremony, Shiori loses control. At first, her mistake seems like a stroke of luck, forestalling the wedding she never wanted, but it also catches the attention of Raikama, her stepmother. . Raikama has dark magic of her own, and she banishes the young princess, turning her brothers into cranes, and warning Shiori that she must speak of it to no one: for with every word that escapes her lips, one of her brothers will die. . Penniless, voiceless, and alone, Shiori searches for her brothers, and, on her journey, uncovers a conspiracy to overtake the throne—a conspiracy more twisted and deceitful, more cunning and complex, than even Raikama's betrayal. Only Shiori can set the kingdom to rights, but to do so she must place her trust in the very boy she fought so hard not to marry. And she must embrace the magic she's been taught all her life to contain—no matter what it costs her. . Thank you to @knopfteen for sending me a copy of the book and teaming up with me for a great giveaway! Enter to win a copy of Six Crimson Cranes! . TO ENTER: - follow me, @knopfteen, @elimpix and @storygramtours - tag a friend you think will be interested . For an EXTRA entry: - visit @beverageandbook tomorrow and repeat these steps .

Here’s my haul, did you expect it?
Aren’t these guys so cute? I happened to see them in my peripherals and I knew I needed them. 
I mean, trust me, I tried my best not to buy them because I have plenty of other things I want to buy and my paycheck is only so large and I can only work so much, BUT, I couldnt stop thinking about them and went back to buy them the next day.
Now, three additional things:
The first, while I am a big book haul buyer I try to maintain my carbon footprint in other ways - I thrift, I buy second-hand, I support small business whenever I can, on top of trying to limit food products that well, insist on harming the environment. But, with this buy I admit I felt a little bit guilty on the spectrum. So, with the plastic that I have indeed helped accrue I will be using it in various other ways like scrapbooking (something I try to do once a month) and using bits as other decor. 
The second is the gentle reminder that all my posts are on a queue in order to maintain consistency. Meaning I bought these around the time I was reading The Outsider. Hence why you see that book in the picture and not the one I’m currently reading. 
Thirdly, and finally, AREN’T THEY SO FLIPPING CUTE. *sighs in bliss*

I surprisingly haven’t been buying many books lately, but I am getting the itch to go to a bookstore and just bought a mystery box of books off eBay last night! ⁣ ⁣ These are all the books I’ve bought, received in the last few weeks! I’ve already finished one and can’t wait to dive into the others! ⁣ ⁣ What are some of the recent books you have gotten? ⁣ ⁣ #bookhaul #bookstagram #books #bookstack #bookpile #booksonbooksonbooks #bookmail #bookbuying #bookstoread #bookblogger #downthebookhole #bookish #tbrpile #bookstagrammer #booklover https://www.instagram.com/p/CCgmoyPAb82/?igshid=19h2gk9jt1qlm

This one hit home a lot as a mom, sister, and teacher. I say read it. “Compassion and connection can only by learned when they are experienced.” So in other words, it’s what you do not what you say. #daringgreatly #brenebrown #justjstrong #blackwomenread #booksonbooksonbooks https://www.instagram.com/p/CEy3i5ksUy5ZwukTaBsaxY3kbsAuZu_JGx3E0s0/?igshid=1419q7m3pk30z

“What is the word, Judith asks her mother, for someone who was a twin but is no longer a twin?” I go into (almost) every new book the same. Kind of reluctantly. Head still full of what I just read. Pretty sure the next one won’t live up. And I am proved wrong almost every time. “Hamnet” is a fictional account of Shakespeare's son, Hamnet, who died at age 11 in 1596. Maggie O’Farrell writes so evocatively. Her descriptions of grief are so raw and heartbreaking but never feel like they tip over into melodrama. The details of the time and area are so vivid you can smell the earth of a forest in the country, the stench of a 16th century London street. And this version of Agnes/Anne Hathaway is by far my favourite interpretation of a woman people can only guess at knowing. “He has, Agnes sees, done what any father would wish to do, to exchange his child’s suffering for his own, to take his place, to offer himself up in his child’s stead so that the boy might live. She will say all this to her husband, later, after the play has ended, after the final silence has fallen, after the dead have sprung up to take their places in the line of players at the edge of the stage.” . . . . . . . . #bookstagram #booklovers #booksbooksbooks #bookstagramza #southafricanreaders #bookstagrammer #bookstagramsouthafrica #readersofinstagram #sareaders #literaryfiction #igreads #bookheaven #readerofinstagram #bookish #booksonbooksonbooks #belletristbabes #read #nextread #hamnet #maggieofarrell #tinderpress (at Durbanville) https://www.instagram.com/p/CfT5V9ELdTZ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Me: how many books should I bring on holiday? My brain: YES. . And in this photo neither Ship of Magic nor The Priory of the Orange Tree are pictured 🤪 . In reality I know I won’t get to all of these but I like to have my options just in case something doesn’t work for me . Do you also overpack on the book department when you go on holiday? • • • • #booksonbooks #booksonbooksonbooks #tbrpile #allthebooks #bookishbag #pileofbooks #fortheloveofreading https://www.instagram.com/p/B1OERR1Iq6Y/?igshid=177zmy71k82qo
