Day 8 of #mateathonig : book with stars on cover 🌠 I seem to always get into conniption when a challenge prompt requires a particular thing on cover but then I usually find I own a selection of them 😅 I own this duology for some time now and still yet to read them! I've heard some smashing thing about them though so I really need to get to them 😋 #LifespanofStarlight #SplitInfinity #ThaliaKalkipsakis #youngadult #sciencefiction #timetravel #aussieauthor #loveozya https://www.instagram.com/p/B33jeV4AoEG/?igshid=2eohqrbu3edk

Day 7 of #mateathonig : #currentlyreading 📖 The Obelisk Gate by N.K. Jemisin for the book with a map prompt 🗺 I struggled to get into it at first because I've sort of forgotten some of the stuff that's happened in book 1 but once my memory was jogged, I'm loving it & cannot wait to finish (abt 100p to go) #TheObeliskGate #NKJemisin #fantasy #postapocalyptic #mateathon https://www.instagram.com/p/B31WlSzgU80/?igshid=1ca2st9e8gqf6

Day 6 of #mateathonig : 2109 Releases 🤩 🐉The highly anticipated The Dragon Republic (thank you @harpercollinsaustralia for this HC 😘 -this is my 2nd copy 🤣). 🌟The Cruel Stars; I've only read 1 of Birmingham's which I found very interesting so I am looking forward to try this one. 🐇The Confession - how gorgeous is that cover!! 😍 Thanks to @macmillanaus Posting this bright & early today because breakfast... yum! Pancake in a mug - I've put too much vanilla essence so it's tasting a bit too sweet but oh so good 🤣 Recipe thanks to @28bysamwood https://www.instagram.com/p/B3xr8N9AmZW/?igshid=flkx58ep97o4

Day 5 of #mateathonig : current bookmark... or rather bookmarkS since I'm a multiple reads kinda woman 😋 I have a whole case of them but these are ones I've been using regularly lately. The 2 board ones are from @dymocksbooks which I loved for their thickness, symmetry and they're in my fave colours 💗🧡 The other 2 are made by yours truly with ribbons, beads & charms; love 'em cuz they're obvs ME 😂 I've JUST finished #NewtsEmerald for the green & gold prompt and ohmygosh 💕💕💕 Whhyyy did I wait so long to read it? It's been on my shelf for like 5 years 😅 and I loved Regency setting (thanks, Austen) Next up: The Dark by Marianne Curley for the Aussie Author prompt #mateathon & is also time travel prompt for the #ausyabloggersreadingchallenge https://www.instagram.com/p/B3vzLQYgrc4/?igshid=118jho90dyrto

Day 4 of #mateathonig : Aussie Authors - well, I thought this was kinda like picking your favourite child 🤔🤯 So I just came up with extra categories to limit my options 🤣 ✍Aussie women authors ✍pub 2019 ✍books of same height Am really happy with this selection 💕 As you can see, I'm a rather eclectic reader 😋 #australianwomenwriters #2019releases #bookstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/B3tc_FMAH1u/?igshid=dndczzhoyeww

Day 3 of #mateathonig : #currentlyreading 📖 I find myself mid-read of 3 books set in outback Australia 🤷‍♀️ This happens a lot to me... there's always some commonality between my multi reads 🤨 Does this happen to you as well? Only The Yield is actually for the readathon as I've started the other 2 last week. It's for 2019 prompt though will also fit Aussie Author & Book w/ a Map. https://www.instagram.com/p/B3qr4jVAQ8d/?igshid=1peslzokohzkr
