Have you been to a literature festival or convention?

I’ll Be Home For Hanukkah, by KK Hendin, is a hilarious holiday romance, ticking all the Hallmark movie boxes, except that our heroine is Jewish and not entirely sure what the whole point of Christmas is. Shayna gets assigned a work trip to a little town called North Pole, in Alaska, in December, along with her (handsome, funny, also Jewish) new coworker. A little mix-up from well-meaning busybodies sends Shayna and Noam on an adorable Christmas romance program, intended for Shayna's Christmas-obsessed coworker, Shannon. The result is all the buff lumberjacks and sparkling snow of a Christmas romance, while our Shayna and Noam whisper to each other and try to dodge very enthusiastic Christmas carolers. So fun. #bookblogger #bookstagram #amreading #bookblogging #instaread #readersofinstagram #booklife #bookoftheday #bookish #alwaysreading #bookgram #bookblogging #fiction #bookblr #illbehomeforhanukkah #kkhendin #bookcommunity #igreads #reader #libri #literature https://www.instagram.com/p/CmOsZDXr6l_/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I couldn't stop crying thinking the 'what ifs' of how this trilogy could've ended differently. Do I love it? Not totally. Do I hate it? No, I could never. In the end, I would have to live with the pain and hope that everything that Rin went through, it was all worth it. That Nezha will make it worth it. The Poppy War - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The Dragon Republic - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The Burning God - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Historical fiction always hit me the hardest, whether its fantasy or not. Because it is an echo of what has transpired years ago, and we are reminded of the cruelty that somehow we humans are still capable of. Here, it shows colonialism in its most exploitive means possible. War is ugly, it always is and it rarely ends happy. #rfkuang #historicalfantasy #theburninggod #thedragonrepublic #thepoppywar #grimdark #bookstagrammer #bookdragon #booklover #bookish #bookphotography #instabook #instaread #readingaddict #readinglife #thereaderslounge https://www.instagram.com/p/CnvP4kSvg2q/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

✨Review✨ Heaven by Mieko Kawakami ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you have been thinking about reading this book, this is your sign to go pick it up! #chefskiss . SOPOILERS . Yesterday I finished reading this little piece of gold. Heaven is the story of two teenagers being bullied at school and forming a platonic friendship. The book has this Gorgeous dialogues between these two characters whose social ineptitude make for interesting, deep and unfiltered conversations about life, society and purpose. My favorite character was the protagonist’s stepmother, they have all these wholesome interactions and she seems to love her stepson so much. I just loved all scenes where the two of them were together. Mieko Kawakami has a talent for creating characters that seem real, they all give the impression of having a backstory even if it’s not written in the paper as such, you just feel how much she cared about all of them and every detail. I also (And here comes a little spoiler) particularly enjoyed a conversation he has with one of his bullies about the reason behind all the abuse and it is enlightening how this character has completely separated morality from human behavior and seems to find it unnatural and nonsensical to even think about the relation of the two. As opposed to Kojima’s character who sees her own bulling as part of an almost religious experience of enlightenment. . This book was at times adorable and at other times heartbreaking, but it had my heart from beginning to end. Would highly recommend. . Have you read any of Mieko Kawakami’s books? . . ##bookstagram #instabook #bookphotography #bookporn #igbooks #ilovereading #bookhaul #bookhoarder #bookaddiction #bookstoread #whattoread #bibliophile #igreads #currentlyreading #bookreview #instaread #lovetoread #booksarelife #readingisfundamental #whatimreading #bookreviewer #bookaddicts #bookpost #tbrpile #justread #bookrecs #cozy (at Madrid, Spain) https://www.instagram.com/p/CneEVFjtjwa/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
