Fill in the blanks: If you liked ____________, then you should read ___________. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you liked The Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare, then you should read The Rephaim Series by Paula Weston. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This week’s more than halfway over, and that means it’s almost the weekend - yaaaaaay! How’s everyone doing??? Sorry I’ve been MIA. It feels like it’s been forever 😩 We’ve been moving stuff from the apartment to our house and the end is in sight! ....kinda 😅🙈 The one question we ask ourselves every single day since starting the move: how the heck did we end up with so much stuff?! 😂 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #urbanfantasy #themortalinstruments #cassandraclare #shadows #therephaim #paulaweston #ifyoulikethisreadthat #booksandtea #booksandflowers #coverlove
Happy Friday the 13th!!! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #fridaythe13th #favoriteday #openbook #openbooks #chapterart #cruelprince #wickedking #queenofnothing
“I’d rather die on an adventure than live standing still.” ~V.E. Schwab, A Darker Shade of Magic ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I haven’t read this series yet (sad, I know), but I’ve seen this quote around more than once and I’ve loved it every time; so I think you can imagine how much I love this book sleeve that came in my rep package for @thebookishshop 😍 It’s perfect for paperbacks, e-readers, and even tiny hardcovers 🙌 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ And don’t worry, these books are pretty high on my TBR, so I will most definitely be reading them. And soon. ❤️ Have you read A Darker Shade of Magic? What did you think? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Use my rep code BOOKSBEFORE to get a discount on this or other items when shopping at @thebookishshop and @thebookishbox 🥰 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #sponsoredpost | This was sent to me for free as part of my @thebookishshop Rep Package ❤️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #booksleeve #adarkershadeofmagic #veschwab #thebookishshop #thebookishbox #booksandtea #booksandcandles #bookmerch #bookishmerch #bookishitems #alliseeispretty #calmversation #comfycozy
Happy Hump Day! How’s everyone doing? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This week (and month!) has been getting away from me VERY quickly. Lots of packing, moving, commuting, working, and, unfortunately, not so much sleep for us over here. But all the stress will be worth it! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Speaking of sleep though - I’m off to bed extra early tonight to try to catch some z’s. Is it weird that I’ve been looking forward to this literally all day? 😅 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Question: Do you have any poetry recommendations? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #poetic #poetryisart #dailypoem #poetrycommunity #worldofpoets #writerssociety #communityofwriters #bookstagramming #bookstagrammers
Question: Are you excited for The Queen of Nothing by @blackholly??? Do you have any theories? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ To say I’m excited would probably be an understatement, but as far as theories go, I have no idea what to expect anymore. But I will say that I combed over Cardan’s decree at the end of The Wicked King a BUNCH of times 😂🙈 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #thecruelprince #thewickedking #thequeenofnothing #hollyblack #booksandtea #booksandcandles #thenovl #yalovin #yafiction
“No one ever dies, and we all live happily ever after.” -Buffy the Vampire Slayer ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Who loves a good ‘ol ‘happily ever after’? 🙋‍♀️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’m a sucker for happy endings. You can throw whatever drama and turmoil you want at me throughout the duration of a novel/story, as long as there’s a happy ending. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Where are all my fellow Buffy fans? I received this BTVS vinyl sticker in my rep package from @thebookishshop last month 🥰 I’d (somehow) forgotten how awesome and amazing this show was/is. This quote in particular was from the episode “Lie to Me” in Season 2, where Buffy asks Giles to lie to her about life (#mood). Seriously though, the characters are awesome, the wit is top notch, and, I mean, vampires and demons and witches, oh my! 😉 If you haven’t watched it yet, you should. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Use my rep code BOOKSBEFORE to get a discount when purchasing items from @thebookishshop and boxes from @thebookishbox 🙌 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #sponsoredpost | This was sent to me for free as part of my @thebookishshop Rep Package ❤️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #buffythevampireslayer #buffy #btvs #vampireslayer #vinylsticker #happilyeverafter #vinylstickers #thebookishshop #thebookishbox #stickeraddict #stickerobsessed #favoritefandom #upclose
Question: Are you a tea drinker? What’s your favorite flavor/type? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Tea’s the only form of caffeine I can handle (coffee makes me jittery and slightly sick), so it’s basically my lifeblood. English Breakfast is my go-to for a caffeine fix, but if I’m feeling mellow, I love anything with lavender 🥰 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ My most recent #nailmail from Espionage Cosmetics was Tea-themed and it makes me so happy just looking at the designs 😍 Ian flipped over the “Tea, Earl Grey, Hot” 😂 He’s a Trekkie. The other designs included in this month’s package were “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Bat,” inspired by Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, and “Booty like POW!” inspired by Tiny Tina from Borderlands 2. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #sponsoredpost | These were sent to me for free as part of my Espionage Cosmetics #NerdManicure Ambassador Rep Package. Thanks a million, Nerd Misfits!!! 💕 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ For more lovely designs, be sure to check out @espionagebeauty 🙌 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bookinspired #gamergal #nerdychic #EspionageCosmetics #crueltyfreebeauty #nailwraps #videogames #startrek #trekkie #teaearlgreyhot #tealover #nerdmanicure #teaparty
As promised! Here’s a look at me actually wearing the Lunar Chronicles-inspired ring that came in my rep package from @thebookishshop earlier this month 😍 Galaxies not included 😜 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I just love that minimalist vibe 🥰 Plus I’m here for anything and everything related to the Lunar Chronicles. And also anything and everything written by @marissameyerauthor 🙌 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You can use my rep code BOOKSBEFORE to get a discount when purchasing items from @thebookishshop and boxes from @thebookishbox. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #sponsoredpost | This was sent to me for free as part of my @thebookishshop Rep Package ❤️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #thelunarchronicles #marissameyer #cinder #scarlett #cress #thebookishshop #thebookishbox #bookmerch #bookishmerch #favoritefandom #upclose #alliseeispretty
Happy Aloha Friday! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Question: How do you like to decorate your bookshelves? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ When I’m not moving everything around to take photos, I generally like to add some flowers and candles to my shelves. Since we’ll be moving soon, I’ve been thinking of lots of different decorating ideas - not just for our bookshelves but for our house in general 😍 The possibilities are endless! And, of course, @instagram and @pinterest are great sources of inspiration for home styles 🙌 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In other news - I apologize for not getting back to your comments and messages! It’s been a tad bit crazy over here, but I’ll respond after the Labor Day weekend ❤️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #libraryofinstagram #bookseverywhere #shelfie #shelfies #booksbooksbooks #beautifulbooks #bookishcandles #bookishcandle #bookishmerch
