★ Where do you usually go book shopping? My favorite places to go book shopping are bookstores that sell used and new books! We have one about an hour away and I’ve found so many incredible gems there—I would say at least 20 percent of my books are from there, alone. I also shop at Barnes & Noble (especially for signed and exclusive editions!) and whenever we travel I make a point to discover a couple indies in the area! This tote bag designed by @noverantale from @illumicrate’s November box is perfect for all of my book shopping excursions, too! It’s inspired by @naominovik’s A Deadly Education and looks so good with my Illumicrate edition of the book! Use code LIBRARY5 to save on 3&6 month subs! ★ HASHTAGS // #bookstagram #fantasybooks #coverlove #prettybooks #totalbooknerd #becauseofreading #bookshelf #bookboxes #bookaesthetic #myfavoritethings #bookshopping #illumicratenov2022 #illumicrate #adeadlyeducation #thelastgraduate #naominovik #thescholomance #noverantale #bookdragon #bibliophile https://www.instagram.com/p/Co-bGcYJSYf/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🍂 Do you ever eat or drink while you’re reading? What’re your favorite reading snacks? We made it to Wednesday, Bookworms … Halfway to the weekend and I am so ready for it. 🫢 Do you guys like to eat or drink while you’re reading? I don’t usually eat while I’m reading, mostly because I usually end up getting food everywhere when I do. 😅 I do sometimes like to have a latte when I read, especially when the weather is cold. White chocolate caramel is my favorite. I haven’t had one in a really long time, but now that fall is here and the weather is a little cooler, it’s definitely making me want one. ☕️ What about you guys? (Throwback photo from last year, because I completely forgot to take one for today. 🫢) 🍂 ☕️ 🍂 ☕️ 🍂 ☕️ #AlltheBooksOct22 #MyFictionalMusings #CourtofReadingOct22 #ReadingintheWeb 🍁 ☕️ 🍁 ☕️ 🍁 ☕️ #bookstack #spookybooks #leighbardugo #bookpile #yabooks #fantasybooks #booksbooksbooks #booksofinstagram #bookstagram #bookcommunity #booknerd #bookobsessed #booklover #bookphoto #becauseofreading #booksaremagic #readmore #fallvibes #halloweenvibes #cozyreading #ilovebooks #readerlife https://www.instagram.com/p/CjVDBdGOGiF/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Let’s go for a classic question! What are you currently reading? 🍂📚😍 . Isabel is 1/3 into The Stardust Thief & she says it might be a new favorite read! Actually, in July we have found so many favorites because we also loved A Darkness at the Door, Harrow the Ninth, and Reign of Night. Such a good reading month, overall! 🧡 . I decided to start Ordinary Monsters but it will be my official long read of August. This means I will tackle chapters throughout the month alongside any other reads I decide to pick up next. Because it’s huge. Has anyone here read it? 👀🙌 . . #bookwormlife #becauseofreading #readingisfun #readingcorner #amreading #booktography #bookflatlay https://www.instagram.com/p/CgkRDtLpi1c/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

After months of being out of stock, we have hard cover editions of The Memory Librarian by Janelle Monáe!! The short story anthology incl months of being out of stock, we have hard cover editions of The Memory Librarian by Janelle Monáe!! The short story anthology includes stories by @shereereneethomas, Danny Lore, and Yohanca Delgado @yodelnyc. Purchase link in bio:@sistahscifi | www.sistahscifi.com| https://sistahscifi.com/products/the-memory-librarian-and-other-stories-of-dirty-computer-by-janelle-monae Reposted @readinginjenue 🫧 The Memory Librarian by @JanelleMonáe SYNOPSIS: In The Memory Librarian: And Other Stories of Dirty Computer, singer-songwriter, actor, fashion icon, activist, and worldwide superstar Janelle Monáe brings to the written page the Afrofuturistic world of one of her critically acclaimed albums, exploring how different threads of liberation—queerness, race, gender plurality, and love—become tangled with future possibilities of memory and time in such a totalitarian landscape…and what the costs might be when trying to unravel and weave them into freedoms. Expanding from that mythos, these stories fully explore what it’s like to live in such a totalitarian existence…and what it takes to get out of it. Building off the traditions of speculative writers such as Octavia Butler, Ted Chiang, Becky Chambers, and Nnedi Okorafor—and filled with the artistic genius and powerful themes that have made Monáe a worldwide icon in the first place—The Memory Librarian serves readers tales grounded in the human trials of identity expression, technology, and love, but also reaching through to the worlds of memory and time within, and the stakes and power that exists there. Thank you to partners @bibliolifestyle and @harpervoyagerus for this gifted copy. 🔖 #thememorylibrarian #janellemonae #janellemonáe #bibliolifestyle #igreads #bibliophile #bookphotography #booksofinstagram #bookishpost #bookishfeatures #booknerd #bookishflatlay #booklover #bookstagrammer #ilovebooks #bookblogger #booklove #bookgram #booksofig #becauseofreading #fortheloveofbooks #whattoread #readingismagic #booksbooksbooks #teacherswhoread #iteachhighschoolenglish #sistahscifi (at Sistah Scifi) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpfkhhML36W/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

QOTD: What is your ideal vacation in one sentence? . AOTD: I can't imagine anything better than a week in a castle in Scotland. Days touring the countryside and nights exploring a castle or curled up by the fire with a dram. . The Christmas Castle in Scotland is flawlessly festive and delightfully diverting. Perfect cute Christmas novel to get you into the holiday spirit, but also just an entertaining read. . Izzy McBride had never in a million years expected to inherit an actual castle from her great uncle Bill but here she was, in the run up to Christmas, Monarch of her own Glen – a very rundown glen in need of a lot of TLC if her dream of turning it into a boutique bed and breakfast was to come true. But when Izzy’s eccentric mother rents a room to enigmatic thriller author Ross Adair and the Scottish snow starts to settle like the frosting on a Christmas cake, it’s a race to get the castle ready before they’re all snowed in for the holidays. . #booklover #bookstagram #bookishescape #mybookfeatures #readingiscool #bookpic #booksarelife #bookishlove #christmas #becauseofreading #readingoutside #readersofinstagram #christmasbooks #bookcollection #booksofinstagram #readingtime #amreading #bookaholic #prettybooks #bookreview #bookreviewer #bookobsessed #ilovereading #bookish #booknerdigans #festive #bookwormlife #bookcommunity #readmore #readinglife (at Columbus, Ohio) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkeKAoFvLbQ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

📚𝗪𝗢𝗥𝗟𝗗 𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗗 𝗔𝗟𝗢𝗨𝗗 𝗗𝗔𝗬📚 Happy World Read Aloud Day! Instilling a love of reading is one of the best things you can do for your child, and it's so important for their development. They learn so many skills from reading: how to read critically, how to identify different words and how they sound, how to connect symbols into sentences or paragraphs. Reading is a great way to help kids develop their vocabulary and understanding of the world around them. And they really enjoy it! When you read aloud with your child, they not only learn new words and concepts, but also practice listening skills and improve their attention span. When you read aloud together with your child, you are helping them build a love of reading that will last a lifetime! 𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲'𝘀 𝗮 𝘀𝗻𝗶𝗽𝗽𝗲𝘁 𝗜 𝘄𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆: Ardit stood in front of a group of rowdy children at the local bookstore. Ready to cast a spell with words. Ardit took a deep breath and opened the book, his voice ringing out clear and strong. The subtle hint of authority in his tone made the children quiet down. Reaching an exciting part of the story, Ardit’s eyes lit up, and the children, caught up in the tale's magic, hung on every word with their mouths hanging open. The children gasped, feeling the excitement and tension. "Reading aloud is a magical experience," Ardit said. "And we're glad to have shared it with all of you today." 📚📚📚 #worldreadaloudday #readaloud #readaloudrevival #readaloudday #writerswritesnippets #readingmatters #readingaloud #literacymatters #readingismagic #readingwithkids #buildingaloveofreading #familyreading #storytimewithkids #readaloudcommunity #raisingreaders #readtogether #becauseofreading #authorsofinstagram #writingcommunity #writingmotivation #booknerd #writerwednesday #wednesdaysnippet #readingcommunity #readersofinsta #readingchallenge #writersclub #readersgonnaread #youngreaders #readingiscool (at Naperville, Illinois) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoIClo4rIm2/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

★ What are your favorite books that you’ve read recently? Some books I’ve read recently that I really loved have even Beautiful Nightmares by @kjsuttonbooks, How to Fake It in Hollywood by @avawilderwrites, and Between Wrath and Mercy by @jesswisecupbooks! I’m also currently reading Garnet Flats by @devneyperry (out 7/26) and feel like it’s going to be a five star read … 😏 So, so good. ★ HASHTAGS // #bookshelves #shelfie #bookshelf #bookstack #bookhoarder #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #booknookstagram #booksofinstagram #homedesign #booknerdigans #lifestyle #bookphotography #librariesofinstagram #bookshelfie #library #bookphotography #becauseofreading #totalbooknerd #homelibrary #bibliophile #photooftheday #bookrecommendations #shelfiesunday https://www.instagram.com/p/CgIm0VeLFLu/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Hola a todos!!!⠀⠀ Leen libros Spice? Picantes?⠀⠀ El comienzo de este libro te brinda todos los condimentos necesarios para no soltarlo.⠀⠀ Con cada descripción te imaginas toda la escena. Será turbia? No, pero muy adictiva. ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ Lo leímos en el grupo de Fantasía de @nuestrorinconliterario "La prisionera de oro" de @ravenkennedybooks publicado por @penguinlibrosar muchas gracias @historiasqueenamoranarg por el ejemplar⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ "En la vida uno puede fingir muchas cosas. Si te esmeras, incluso puedes llegar a creerte tus propias mentiras. Todos somos actores; todos nos subimos a un escenario y, con el foco iluminándonos de pleno, interpretamos el papel que sea necesario para sobrevivir al día, para poder conciliar el sueño por las noches"⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ Oro. Suelos de oro, paredes de oro, ropa de oro. En Highbell, en el castillo construido en las montañas heladas, todo está hecho de oro.⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ Incluso yo. El rey Midas me rescató. Me sacaron de los barrios bajos y me colocaron en un pedestal. Me llaman su favorita. Soy la mujer a la que tocó con oro para mostrarles a todos que le pertenezco. Para mostrar lo poderoso que es. Él me dio protección y yo le di mi corazón.⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ De repente, mi confianza se rompe. Mi amor es desafiado y me doy cuenta de que todo lo que creía saber sobre Midas podría estar equivocado.⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ Porque estos barrotes en los que estoy encerrada, por dorados que sean, siguen siendo solo una jaula.⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ Opinión ⠀⠀ La saga consta de 6 libros, en el primer libro me encontre que es introductorio, pero no deja de tener situaciones complejas e interesantes. Los personajes son oscuros y turbios que te llevan a pensar que estarán ocultando, tienen características muy marcadas y definidas para cada situación, además de que todo el tiempo me cuestionaba lo que estaba pasando y cual sería la finalidad de lo que ocurría. ⠀ Cuando un libro no me permite soltarlo se merece que lo recomiende.⠀⠀ No veo la hora de seguir con la saga!!!!⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ #bookaddict #instaread #bookcommunity #alwaysreading #booknerd #bookspine #magicnbooks #booksparks #bookwormlife #booksharks #bookstafeatures #colorfulspines #booksofig #bookgram #bookstagrammer #bookwormsunite #becauseofreading https://www.instagram.com/p/Cnz8D7zvBV0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🌲 What books are you hoping to read in December? Happy first day of December, Bookworms … I can’t believe that there is only one month left in 2022. I still have so many books I want to read (or finish reading) before the year ends. I am hoping for a really good reading month so I can devour all of the holiday and winter themed books pictured above, AND hopefully finish up most of the books I’ve started this year and set aside for whatever reason. Feel free to send any reading vibes you have my way ... I definitely need them. 😅 I’m very excited to finally start all the holiday books this month. I’ve been saving them for weeks now, and I just want to read them already. ❤️ What books are you hoping to read this month?? And today is the first day of the December Book Challenge. I hope you guys will join me for one last challenge of 2022. I can’t wait to see your post for this month. ❤️ 🌲 📚 🌲 📚 🌲 📚 #AlltheBooksDec22 #MyFictionalMusings #CourtofReadingDec22 #ReadingintheWeb 📚 🌲 📚 🌲 📚 🌲 #tbr #currentlyreading #amreading #reading #books #bookstack #bookstagram #yabooks #romancebooks #booksbooksbooks #bookcommunity #booklover #bookobsessed #becauseofreading #booksaremagic #readmorebooks #holidayvibes #bookshelf #booksofinstagram #booknerd #fiction #cozyreading #readersofinstagram #bookphotography #ilovebooks #readinglife https://www.instagram.com/p/CloGogPOgP-/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
