#firstandthen

Who is your favorite contemporary YA author? . . I am in love. My first book by Emma Mills was First & Then a retelling of Pride & Prejudice (my fav), then Foolish Hearts was included in an owlcrate back in early 2018, I think? And I loved that one too. It’s a retelling of Midsummer’s Night Dream. And now I’m finally reading This Adventure Ends. . . It. Is. So. Good. I’m about 100 pages in and I’ve already laughed a ton. I have two quotes already in my favorite quotes section of my book journal. Slade is who I wish I was if I were better on my witty timing. I NEED her latest book which came out just a few weeks ago. She’s an auto buy for me for sure and my fav contemporary author along with Rainbow Rowell. . . #emmamills #foolishhearts #firstandthen #thisadventureends #contemporarylit #yalit #igreads #currentlyreading #ilovebooks #bookcommunity #bookflatlay #bookcover #retellings #socksunday #bookishlife #youngadultbooks #bookfeaturepage #bookishfeatures #bookobsessed #booktography https://www.instagram.com/p/BtbwGBTnlvT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=10ion166suwyq

Heyoooo i finished my #booktubeathon TBR! First & Then was a last minute substitution for a beautiful spine and i really liked it. I’ve now read all of @elmify’s books and she’s a new fave! I cannot wait to read her next one, Famous In A Small Town. If you haven’t seen that cover you should go check it out, it’s GORGEOUS! 🌈🌈🌈 #firstandthen #booktubeathon2018 #bookstack #bookstagram #books #bookworm #booknerd #bookphotography #read #yalit #bookgeek #igreads #instabooks #instabook #book #bibliophile #booklove #booklion #bookaholic #bookaddiction #bookaddict #bookhoarder #goodreads #bookstagrammer #bookgram #bookworm_insta #emmamills

Contemporaries warm my heart. • • “Close your eyes, real tight, and then count to three hundred. That’s all you have to do. You just count to three hundred, and when you open your eyes, five minutes will have passed. And even if it hurts or things are shitty or you don’t know what to do, you just made it through five whole minutes. And when it feels like you can’t go on, you just close your eyes and do it again. That’s all you need. Just five minutes at a time.” • I loved Emma Mills. Just fantastic. #bookstagramfeature #bookstagram #book #books #contemporary #emmamills #firstandthen #thingsweknowbyheart #thelovethatsplittheworld #patrickness #therestofusjustlivehere #illmeetyouthere #heatherdemetrios

31. May wrap up 📕 This month I read The Raven King, George, First & Then, and Zac & Mia. I went to the Maggie Stiefvater event at @josephbeth in Cincinnati. And sent my daughter in my stead to @barnesnoblecarmel for the Illuminae event there for a signed book. 📕 Daughter and I also got Neville Longbottom Pops on the last day of school (hello, summer)! 📕 And I got lots of amazing candles from @novellyyours for giveaways for the Life after Juliet launch next month (July 5! Can you believe it?!). 📕 Lastly, I caved and bought The Raven Boys set of magnetic bookmarks from @happyhelloart !! I'm definitely addicted to her designs! 📕 How'd you all fare this month? 📕 #swoonyfictionmay #wrapup #illuminae #firstandthen #theravenking #zacandmia #george #funkopop #nevillelongbottom #candles #happyhelloart
