#ocsummerlove

Yesterday was day 5 of the @owlcrate June Box Photo Challenge. I’m not one to sit on a blanket at the park. I hate hot weather... so I prefer being in the AC on very hot days.. what do you guys prefer? ••••••• July 9th• #ocsummerlove • Towel at the Park #owlcrate #unboxing #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookstagramfeature #bookishfeatures #bookish #igreads #igbooks #instabooks #readersofinstagram #booksofinstagram #bookworm #booklover #booknerd #bibliophile #bookphotography #bookblogger #bookreviewer #loudmindreviews #booklr #bookbox #bookmail #photochallenge #summerlove (at Loud Mind Reviews)

OC photo challenge day 7: Owlcrate Box and Rainbows // I had a lot of fun with this one! I loved coloring the box but it was so difficult to find a book for each color haha 😂 But it came out so bright and cheery. A good photo to wrap up the June challenges. #bookstagram #owlcrate #ocsummerlove #rainbows #bookrainbow #pride🌈

A of JAF is #currentlyreading: A Reaper at the Gates by @sabaatahir, the third in the awesome #emberquartet. I’ll warn you now folks, there won’t be so much a review of this book once I’m done, but probably just fangirling. I’m not going to be objective. #sorrynotsorry Mug from the June #ocsummerlove @owlcrate, featuring delicious iced brewed tea from @riddlesteashoppe and tea strainer from the first @secondstarlit box. 😍 (at Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates)

Today's July 10th #OCSummerLove task for the @owlcrate June Box photo challenge is to share a #masonjarmugselfie. I tried. But Max had to make sure I was okay ("Mommy was on the couch; why is she now on the floor? Best investigate..."). I'm just glad this great mug from @themichellegray and #OwlCrate showed up in the photo! 😄😍❤ . . . . I think that my eyes were closed when I snapped this photo, as Max was giving me kisses, So I'm rather amazed at how well this photo turned out. And, to be honest, I was hoping that Max would get involved and block my face for this #selfie. But I didn't expect this photo to turn out perfectly! 😄😍❤ . . . . I had hoped to be sitting in front of my main bookshelf system, but when an opportunity arose in the living room, I had to take it. After all, Max hates having his photo taken, so staging a true setup with books would have tipped him off. 🤔❤ . . . . But, as the mug says, I am most definitely a book worm and proud! 😄📚❤ . . . . #DogsofInstagram #bookstagram #books #series

I’m so in love with this mason jar mug, designed by @themichellegray from @owlcrate 😍❤️ #ocsummerlove —— Are you a coffee or tea drinker? . . . . . #owlcrate #owlcrateunboxing #owlcratesociety #summertea #masonjar #mugselfie #coffee #tea #teacup #summervibes

OC photo challenge day 6: Mason Jar Mug Selfie // I LOVE the mug from the June box. It’s so cute and it comes with a lid! Very nice for some cool, refreshing water in this summer heat. It says “Book worm and proud” on it. The mug was designed by @themichellegray #owlcrate #ocsummerlove #mugselfie #masonjarmugs #bookishmugs #selfie

Today's task for #OCSummerLove from @owlcrate is to share the towel at a park. The towel - so soft! - was created by @stellabookishart. 😍 . . . . I haven't been to a park in years. I'm disabled and rarely leave the safety of my home. So, what to photograph? 🤔 . . . . I found an image of the last park I think I visited, Cascade Park/Playground in Seattle, on a Seattle Playgrounds blog: https://seattleplaygrounds.wordpress.com/2011/11/07/cascade-playground/. I then photographed the towel with my Max and added it to that image! 😄❤ . . . . This park seems to have changed, though, since I last visited it in 2008 or 2009. Back then, I was working, not yet fully disabled, and I worked a block away as a Financial Aid Administrator for Cortiva Institute - Seattle, an accredited school for massage. I used to visit this park on my lunch break, sit at a picnic table, and read while eating my lunch. Nowadays, it looks like the picnic tables have been removed. 😕 . . . . But still, this is a park I know I have visited, so it's the one I decided to share. Since Max is seen from above and not really visible, turn to Photo Two for a view of his face. 😍❤ . . . . #DogsofInstagram #bookstagram #books #OwlCrate #MySummerIsAllBooked (at Cascade Playground)

OC photo challenge day 5: Towel at the Park // Soooo this is actually my front yard but I didn’t feel like going to an actual park hehe 😂 Still, here’s me using my towel in the great outdoors. You can’t tell but it’s super summery themed and says “My Summer is all Booked” (get it?!). It was designed by @stellabookishart #owlcrate #ocsummerlove #readingoutside #modellife
