Once again realised I don't use this app as much as I should! But still use it more than Threads 🤣
Anyways what's everyone reading! I'm about to start Mosaic .. I've definitely been influenced into grabbing a copy as I've seen loads of people posting about it recently!

After a week where I couldn't focus on a book I picked up People of Abandoned Character by Clare Whitfield and promptly devoured it in two days, I wouldn't sleep last night until I had finished it! 💙📚

I had been struggling to focus on reading anything this last week, but that changed when I started reading People of Abandoned Character by Clare Whitfield .. I am absolutely hooked!

That moment when you say to someone "oh I've never heard of that book" then instantly spot a copy you didn't know you had on your bookshelf .. a sign my tbr pile is out of control 🤣

Just went and had a coffee in a cafe next to a Waterstones and resisted popping in to look at the books .. something must be wrong with me!
💙📚
(P.s. I love that I'm suggesting I would ever just "look at the books" and not come out with at least two 🤣)

💖💜💙 definitely going to have to get these!! 💙📚
Happy bisexual visibility day!! 💖💜💙 I wrote these sapphic books for the readers (like me) who have ever felt like they don't quite fit in, but are fighting to find their place, voice, and innate power. We have a right to EXIST and are deeply beautiful, as is. 🌈📚💙📚🏳️🌈

So far this week I have purchased 9 books .. I feel like I should buy one more to round it up to 10 💙📚
Feel free to encourage me and send book suggestions to tempt me! I'm mostly looking for perfect autumnal reads and spooky season books! 🎃

Just learnt about adding 💙📚 to all my bookish posts on BookSky as apparently it picks that up, which I guess will make it easier to find content from all our fellow bookworms! 🥰
