With freedom, books, flowers, and the moon, who could not be happy? —Oscar Wilde • • It's pretty obvious that besides books, I adore fresh flowers. What is something besides books (and family because that's a given ☺️) that you can't live without? * * * * * #penguinclassics @penguinclassics #clothboundclassics #penguinbooks #coraliebickfordsmith @coraliebickfordsmith #pagesandpetals #booksandflowers #booksandblooms #stackofbooks #bookpile #literature #met_createchange #bluebooks #goodreads #postitforaesthetic #seekthesimplicity #bibliophile #booksofinstagram #bookbath #mybookbath 📖🛁

When Catherynne M. Valente announced she was publishing a new middle-grade fantasy novel about the Brontë siblings I just went immediately online and I pre-ordered it. I mean, fantasy + the Brontës.... what could go wrong? I hope nothing 😂 • • #clothboundclassics #penguinclothboundclassics #stackofbooks #theglasstowngame

"Maybe reading was just a way to make her feel less alone, to keep her company. When you read something you are stopped, the moment is stayed, you can sometimes be there more fully than you can in your real life." - Helen Humphries, Coventry. 🦊 #bookstack #wallofbooks #clothboundclassics

Don't be fooled by Belle's sweet nature, this is a protective stance: if you would damage the pretty books then YOU SHALL NOT PASS! 🦊 #bookstack #clothboundclassics

Summer rain has a different feel than autumn. It’s warm enough to keep the windows open so the house is filled with nature’s symphony. 🍃🌧 . . . . #bookstacks #bookish #knickerbockerclassics #clothboundclassics #bookstagram #booklover #bookshelfies #booksblog #booknerd #lesehest #bookblogger #bokblogger #rainydayreading #bookphotography (at Torshov) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCWH_MDnXSd/?igshid=1kyw2dbuo1nv5

"The man told him that he cooked five different dishes in the morning and five in the evening, adding: 'And yesterday they asked me for a sixth, rice and honey, as well as a seventh, which was cooked pomegranate seeds.'" ~ Finishing up some stories from this collection. These three things mixed together were quite delicious. ~ #theadventuresofalialzaibaq #talesfrom1001nights #clothboundclassics #pomegranate #honeyrice https://www.instagram.com/p/B8HTkU0onCe/?igshid=txjzoaxpo6yn

Got two late Christmas presents in the mail this week! Thanks Mom! 💘 Looks like I'm going to be reading more Arabian Nights.
