Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate! Rather then celebrating the origins of this holiday, I like to focus on family and what I am thankful for in my life. This year I am thankful for: 🔸The health and safety of my family. Too many are celebrating without theirs this year. 🔸 My new job and that I am finally in my current field! 🔸 Our finances, we are comfortable and able to pay for grad school which I am so grateful for! 🔸That the World Cup is on and I can’t watch Wales play! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🔸 My cats! I love them so much and I’m grateful I get to keep them safe and happy. 🔸 My husband. For so so many reasons 💛 What is something you are thankful for this year? •——————————————————————————————• #letterboard #bookcart #bookishaesthetic #bookworm #constantreader #bookphotography #booknerdigans #bibliophile #bookaddict #booklove #reader #readersofinstagram #thanksgiving #orangebooks #readingforpleasure #booklove #bookishlife #thankful https://www.instagram.com/p/ClWiG34rstj/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It’s Saturday in September which means college football!! My Sooners don’t play until tonight so that leaves plenty of time for me to ignore my dirty laundry and read 🙃 (while watching sɐxǝ┴ get DESTROYED) •——————————————————————————————• #bookshelves #bookshelvesofinstagram #bookshelfdecor #bookshelfie #bookcart #booksbooksbooks #bookish #bookishpost #reader #readersofinstagram #readerlife #readingtime #readingforfun #ilovereading #ilovebooks #bookishlife #bookstagramfeature #booknerdigans https://www.instagram.com/p/CiVKtg7rBXV/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

★ Do you tend to prefer US or UK covers? I always find myself gravitating toward UK covers, but then there’s books like @em_llojo’s The Drowned Woods and both covers are so, so stunning (my last post features the Illumicrate edition!). Actually The Bone Houses is one of my favorite covers of all time, so no surprise at all that The Drowned Woods would be incredible, too! Description: Once upon a time, the kingdoms of Wales were rife with magic and conflict, and eighteen-year-old Mererid “Mer” is well-acquainted with both. She is the last living water diviner and has spent years running from the prince who bound her into his service. Under the prince’s orders, she located the wells of his enemies, and he poisoned them without her knowledge, causing hundreds of deaths. After discovering what he had done, Mer went to great lengths to disappear from his reach. Then Mer’s old handler returns with a proposition: use her powers to bring down the very prince that abused them both.

The best way to do that is to destroy the magical well that keeps the prince’s lands safe. With a motley crew of allies, including a fae-cursed young man, the lady of thieves, and a corgi that may or may not be a spy, Mer may finally be able to steal precious freedom and peace for herself. After all, a person with a knife is one thing… but a person with a cause can topple kingdoms.

The Drowned Woods—set in the same world as The Bone Houses but with a whole new, unforgettable cast of characters—is part heist novel, part dark fairy tale. Thank you to @thenovl for sending me a copy of the book. ★ HASHTAGS // #TheDrownedWoods tour #TheDrownedWoods  #EmilyllyodJones #thenovl #storygramtours #bookcart #tbrcart #shelfie #homelibrary #stencilededges #thebonehouses #bookstagram #fantasybooks #yabooks #bookseverywhere https://www.instagram.com/p/ChnVKqaPxSQ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

“The bright star holds even as the darkness rises.” — C.S. Pacat, Dark Rise •—————————————————————————————• June’s @owlcrate included a Dark Rise inspired magnet. I love sticking bookish magnets on my book cart (my fridge is not magnetic, tell me how THAT makes sense) and it goes perfectly with some of my other round Owlcrate magnets 😌 I just got my July Owlcrate in the mail today and WOW IS IT GREAT! I was right about one of the items and I happy danced all around the kitchen. Don’t worry, my cats judged me enough for everyone. August’s box is going to be great! The theme is Steeped in Folklore and it sound wonderful, I’m really looking forward to it.

★ What are some of your go-to book recommendations? I have a lot, but The Lunar Chronicles by @marissameyerauthor is my go-to recommendation for folks new to Young Adult or returning to Young Adult! It’s such a fun series, and incorporates a lot of what I love of YA books.
