You know that "thing" you read in high school English class that made you go, "I like that, but it can't possibly have any impact on my future life." That thing? For me it was The Goblin Market. I had a great English teacher in HS that really pushed me, found me interesting and challenging books and works to focus on, probably so I'd stop bugging him so much during class. Welp, now I fall head over heels for books based on The Goblin Market. (Insert that two nickels joke here.) I remember being a part of the digital roll out team for The Goblins of Bellwater and I highly recommend it!! Happy Pub Day to @toribovalino an author who became one of my new favorites after reading The Devil Makes Three last summer. I cannot wait to dig into Not Good For Maidens! And thanks to the English teachers who don't give up on the annoying ones. #PubDay #Reading #TBR #ToBeRead #BookLover #GoblinMarket #NotGoodForMaidens #GoblinsOfBellwater #Bookish #Books https://www.instagram.com/p/CfF2B-KrQEf/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

📖 Not Good For Maidens by Tori Bovalino 📖 If you are a fall and Halloween lover like me this book definitely fits the vibe! A retelling of the Goblin’s Market that brings the spooky and creepy feels. I adored the focus on the family of witches and the secrets they keep. Tons of queer rep throughout the story with a sapphic enemies to lovers relationship! The dark seedy world of the goblin market was definitely intriguing. I did struggle with some of the character building and style of the writing. We follow two timelines the present and the past and jump around a little bit. I did enjoy the storyline for the past a lot more, following May and her romance. I listened to this as an audiobook and felt like it added some creepiness to the story although it made it a little harder to track the timeline switches. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ *Thank you NetGalley for an arc in return for an honest review* #goblinmarket #fallreads #toribovalino #notgoodformaidens #netgalley #netgalleyarc #audiobook #audiobookarc #bookreview #downthebookhole #bookstagram #retelling https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch-8yN0raye/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

[Book tour] Hello everyone!! Today I am really excited to share with you Not Good For Maidens by Tori Bovalino (@toribovalino), which is a YA fantasy horror. The book releases on June 21st. *** About the book: Salem’s Lot meets The Darkest Part of the Forest in this horror-fantasy retelling of Christina Rossetti’s “Goblin Market.” Lou never believed in superstitions or magic–until her teenage aunt Neela is kidnapped to the goblin market. The market is a place Lou has only read about–twisted streets, offerings of sweet fruits and incredible jewels. Everything–from the food and wares, to the goblins themselves–is a haunting temptation for any human who manages to find their way in. Determined to save Neela, Lou learns songs and spells and tricks that will help her navigate this dangerous world and slip past a goblin’s defenses–but she only has three days to find Neela before the market disappears and her aunt becomes one of them forever. If she isn’t careful, the market might just end up claiming her too. Content warnings: on-page gore, on-page body horror, violence, trauma *** Check out my post on my blog Book Notes by Athina for more information as well as the link to the tour schedule. *** @tbrbeyondtours #NotGoodForMaidens #ToriBovalino #TBRBeyondTours #greekbookstagram #instavivlio #vivlio #diavazo #eucitesc #mybookfeatures #booknotes_athina #instabooks #bookobsessed #bookstagrammademedoit #booklovers #booksofig #bookrecommendations #bookstagrammer #bookcommunity #readersofinsta #ipreview (at Káto Zákros, Lasithi, Greece) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ce00Ev9jsja/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
