π―on board with the #Wednesday blue post! Books are our safe havens and we are so grateful for our authors and readers for creating such magical worlds to escape to βΊοΈ π·: @amberafterglowreads γ»γ»γ» "No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted." - Aesop. β’ β’ On Wednesday's we post blue! Thank you @thesqueakycupboard, @the.bibliofiles, @katielmae, @katyslibrary, & @notthepathtonarnia for starting such a important tag. This is such an important message, especially because we want to keep Bookstagram as safe, wonderful, and welcoming as it always had been. Books are many of our safe spaces, places to escape the horrors of the world, the keepers of sanity, the teachers of tolerance and acceptance. Even if a book is viewed as problematic we shouldn't bully those of us who still want to read them to discover the truths or untruths for ourselves. We shouldn't stifle the creativity of others and how they express their love and appreciation of the books they love and/or write. Let's think from a place of kindness and respect instead of a place of destruction and censorship. * I'm also tagging a few people who have directly affected my life is such an important way and befriended this little Bookstagrammer when she needed it most. Even if you're not tagged, know that you're important to me and I appreciate and love you all!! πππ * And of course, I'm also featuring my @flickeringtales candles which smells glorious, especially Rhysand!!! I recommend checking out their account and snagging some for yourself! And don't forget to use my code AMBERAFTERGLOW for 10% off your order!!! β’ β’ Day 24 of the #ReadGushMay challenge - Blue Books #booksnotbullies. β’ β’ | #bookstagram #bookdragon #bookchallenge #bluebooks #bookstack
