Huge thanks to @bantambooksuk.bsky.social @transworldbooks.bsky.social for this stunning hardback proof of Spellbound by Georgia Leighton.

So excited to read this one and this copy is beyond beautiful! 😍

My shelves are bending!

While I’m taking all the books off to deep clean the bookcase, I’m replacing the shelves upside down so they essentially bend upwards…in the hope they will bend the other way and straighten…that’s physics right?

Anyone else had this issue with their shelves?

Worked a 10 hour and just getting to enjoy the sunshine now!

Almost finished The First Sister by Linden A. Lewis!

Okay so I finished The Poppy War series a while ago but I needed time to sit with it before articulating my thoughts.

Okay, I love Ava Reid books, but Fable for the End of the World was mesmerising. The prose was so beautiful and lyrical I was just constantly finding myself in awe.

It was just absolutely brilliant. Blending such a Hunger Games style violence with such genuinely beautiful prose…👏🏻👏🏻

I said I was going to read something lighthearted and optimistic…and instead I chose this 😂

But I have read it before and know I loved it! So I got halfway there 🙈

I finally got around to reading The Miseducation of Cameron Post, a book I have been meaning to read for years now. And I’m not quite sure how to adequately review this one.

I enjoyed reading it, if “enjoyed” can really be the right word for a book with this kind of content.

I have just this second finished reading The Lotus Empire by @tashasuri.bsky.social and…I don’t even know what to say (i think the tabs speak for themselves!)

I adore this series. This series has broken me in more ways than I can count, but it was all worth it for that ending (1/2)

How to tell I’m enjoying my book…

I have tabs EVERYWHERE!

My current read 👇🏻

I’m not feeling well so I thought I would update my book journal and try something a little different. I tailored these journal pages to the books.

The first, if you’ve read Lincoln Rhyme, you’ll know as one of his Unsub whiteboards for Book 16.

The second book had heavy flower imagery throughout.

If there is one novelty mug that can sum me up as a person, let it be this one.

With an extra special tattoo too 😝

Can’t wait to read this one!

Out May 13th!

“Are some patterns destined to be repeated?”

Captivating, harrowing, and heartbreaking, I simply could not put this one down. Sofi and Lara’s story reached right into my soul and proceeded to rip it out.

The Woman in the Wallpaper is out NEXT MONTH

I have heard such great things about this book, and it’s taken me forever to get around to it, but I’m finally reading Only A Monster!

Came home to some very exciting book mail today!

Thank you so much @zaffrebooks.bsky.social for the copies of Five Broken Blades and Four Ruined Realms! And the extra goodies! (I was running out of tabs!)

Mum: Why are you wearing an old lady blanket?

Friend: Why are you wearing curtains?

Other Friend: Why are you wearing a patchwork quilt?

OH. MY. GOD.

I have been dying to get my hands on a paperback copy of Evocation forever! And now it’s here! I might have squealed…

(I did squeal).

Thank you thank you thank you @angryrobotbooks.bsky.social for this!

Paperback is out March 2025! @stgibson.bsky.social

So many quotes I could have used here, but not enough space!

I absolutely love the Locked Tomb series. I’m reading Nona the Ninth now!

These are the deep and literary thoughts I will be using this journal for.

Profound.

I’m not very arty, but I thought I would attempt a pretty book journal to mark all my reads this year.

This is my first entry and first try at being arty! Quite proud of myself.

I could have written pages about this book but wanted to keep it short! 😂🙈

I can’t whittle down my 2024 Books, so I’m just going to post every book I read last year.

I don’t think there was one book I didn’t enjoy on some level!

Spot any favourites #booksky
