Hello everyone and happy Friday to you all! Hope you’ve had a good week. Today I had my stitches out and apart from feeling a little FrankenBeth, things are healing well. It’s book haul time! Chinatown is from my @tiltedaxisbooks subscription which gives me five of their newly released books over the year. As I love translated fiction, it was a no brainer! It’s a tale of exile, displacement and discrimination and their impact on a life of a Vietnamese woman. Another quest is to complete all the Outlander novels. Voyager is the third in the series and I’m halfway through the second at the moment. It follows an English woman called Claire in the 1940’s who time-travels back to the Highlands of Scotland in the 18th century. Finally, I’ve already read Sunset as a buddy read with a group of lovely bookstagrammers. It wasn’t what I expected and I’m still thinking about it. It’s about the sibling relationship between Ruth and Hannah and how this is affected when something terrible happens. Review to follow! Coming tomorrow, I’ll have a Saturday stack and I may also do an extra giveaway post depending on how I’m feeling as I reached 2.5K followers recently! Either way, the giveaway WILL come soon.

Day 8: Favorite smell Well, I'm not big on candles. I do like those wax melts but it's so difficult to find the perfect sent that wouldn't be too strong, you know? So, I guess my favorite smell would honestly be books. Either those really old books or the brand new ones. I could sit there flipping the pages with the sent just filling my nostrils. So great! I'm sorry I'm so weird. I did find out recently that they have a candle that is labeled the sent of books... But I'm scared to try it out. #lilgettingtoknowyou #favoritesent #ismellbooks #bookstagram #bookshelf #nerdymommy #nerdlife🤓 #nerdywife #booksaremybestfriends #booksmakeeverythingbetter #books

#amreading #february2017 #goodreads2017readingchallenge #bookstagram #booksmakeeverythingbetter #thankful #friends #surgeryandrecovery Finally feeling well enough to read. Hedging my bet a bit by downloading the audio version to accompany the paper version @zen_and_ink gave me. Four pages in and I'm enchanted. Almost feel like myself again. 😊❤📚
