Elizabeth Wein came into work this afternoon to speak to Year 9 and it was an absolute pleasure to meet her. (And shh...these aren't new books I shouldn't have bought... 😉) #books #ElizabethWein #CodeNameVerity #BlackDoveWhiteRaven #schoollibrarian

‘“Kiss me, Hardy!’ Weren’t those Nelson’s last words at the Battle of Trafalgar? Don’t cry. We’re still alive and we make a sensational team.’ - Code Name Verity by Elizabeth Wein. . . . . This is a book I’ve read in halves but goodness it’s one I’ve enjoyed. I find sometimes you get those books that you don’t mind reading over long periods of time, because they sort of fit a feeling of certain times of the year (for me war times stories often fit October/November months), and the story just sticks with you throughout the year and when you pick it up again, you’re back in there with the characters and on with the story you go. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed this thrilling, meaningful and important book about friendship, the sacrifices that were made during the war and the importance of remembering the people who have given us the lives we lead today. Part based on real life eventualities of the war alongside a fictional yet believable storyline, I really have loved reading this book told from the perspective of two brave and brilliant women. I’ve not read a wartime spy novel quite like it. I can’t wait to read more from this author. 📚 . . . . #CodeNameVerity #ElizabethWein #Fiction #WorldWar2 #Bookstagram #WinterRead #AutumnRead #LeastWeForget https://www.instagram.com/p/B6Y_vSug91q/?igshid=1c9nyb30v5dov

Another favourite! As a former history major I am a sucker for any World War II book and Code Name Verity is hands down one of the best I have ever read. I am always looking for more stories of women's experiences during significant points in history so give me your recommendations in the comments! #codenameverity #elizabethwein #yareads #youngadult #historicalfiction #feministfiction #bookstagram #bookworm #booklover #bookobsessed #bibliophile #readinginraincouver https://www.instagram.com/p/Btz751WH8yN/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=14qkqay4997c0

I decided today to post the books I’ve read lately that are about friendship or that make me have some serious friend envy. I love these books for the friendships they portray. I want to do a YouTube video on it and I’ve already drafted a wordpress blog entry about it...but it feels so poignant to go in depth with them and I’m afraid I somehow won’t do them justice... . . What books have great friendship goals in your opinion?? . . The candles here are “Cabeswater” by The Melting Library and “Kindred Spirits” by Muggle Library, which was included in the Dec LitJoy Crate! . . #yalit #igreads #bookstagram #bookstagramfeature #bookcovers #friendshipgoals #bookphotography #codenameverity #ravenboys #truthwitch #magnuschase #foolishhearts #bookdragon #booksandcandles

It snowed!! And we’re possibly going to get even more overnight tonight! While it does that outside I will be enjoying my last two days of freedom before classes start again.😔 . Netflix adaption of this book needs to happen! Let’s think about how many awesome female leads would be in this movie/show! Come on @netflix you know everyone loves a good time period movie. . Netflix adaption - #bookwormsnewyear18 Cuddled up with a book (time to finish The Yard ) - #allthebooksjan . . . . . . . . . . #bookstagram #netflix #booktomovie #booktoscreen #codenameverity #historicalfiction #youngadult #snowflakes #❄️ #paperback #blue #januaryphotochallenge #bookphotography

Belated Christmas presents to myself.

When internet is spotty and you're feeling punk (again? Still?), it's a sign that you should go analog and read. So obsessed w #codenameverity and #elizabethwein - I'm thrilled to spend some more time w Julia and her family. #thepearlthief reads like a good murder mystery. Just what I need today. #inbedat6pm #fire #tea #bookstagram #weekendreads #amreading #yalit #booklove #booknerd
