Repost from @shellys_book_corner_ • Happy Thursday!! ⠀ My selection for #ThrowbookThursday is Savannah's Secrets by Reese Ryan. ⠀ Have you read this series?? What are some of your favorite revenge romance novels? ⠀ About the Book: ⠀ Falling for the boss has big consequences in this story that launched The Bourbon Brothers series by Reese Ryan. ⠀ Savannah Carlisle has the perfect plan. By infiltrating the Abbott family’s Tennessee bourbon empire as their events manager, she’d be one step closer to claiming half of the business they stole from her grandfather. Now, she’s not so sure. Because sexy Blake Abbott, heir to it all, is simply intoxicating. He’s supposed to be the enemy. But after one long, stormy weekend trapped with him, her defenses fail her and she gives into temptation. ⠀ Now she’s pregnant with his child…. ⠀ ⠀ https://www.instagram.com/p/CPG_DEkDCTa/?utm_medium=tumblr

#q: how would you describe your alternate personality, your Mr. Hyde? . . So for #throwbookthursday I thought I would post these gems I found in a box. Apparently, my addiction for collecting books started when I was young bc I have both the paperback and hardcover version. Anyway, I had to share this recent find with my #bookstagram friends bc I knew you guys would appreciate not only these books from back in the day, but also the urge to own multiple copies of the same book. Anyone else read these as a kid? . . #bookstagrammer #classics #jekyllandhyde #tbt #tbr #bookstaengage #booklover #bookish #childhoodmemories #childhood #illustration #picoftheday #photooftheday #instagood #kids #90s #90skid #ilovebooks #instabook #readersofinstagram #vintage (at Columbus, Ohio) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDAZ3j6gj5U/?igshid=n54xheip8mj5

Cheers to Friday Eve!! This #throwBOOKthursday stack is in honor of #AAPIHeritageMonth. These books have been some of my most enjoyable and memorable reads. They ALL deserve a #ReadThisSpine tag but I specifically want to highlight #TheAtlasofRedsandBlues by @devislaskar. This book still haunts me to this day. The prose is beautiful and the subject matter is critical. It speaks to policing of black and brown bodies that occurs every day. It’s an important book that everyone should read! ⁣ ⁣ Excerpt from @washingtonpost:⁣ The novel’s plot is both straightforward and complex: In a Georgia driveway in 2010, Mother lies bleeding from a gunshot wound to her midsection. Below her is the fast-warming concrete of the hot day and above is a cloudless, bright blue sky. Law enforcement officers with Kevlar vests and automatic guns traipse through the house and around her prone form, shoo the neighbors away and trade quips with the dispatcher. It’s a nightmarish scene, and one that comes to us only in fragments throughout the novel — but it is the place from which all other fragments unfold, moving backward and forward in time. “The Atlas of Reds and Blues” is a quick read, in part because of these short sections, some only two sentences long. But it’s a page-turner, too, because of the urgency of each small story, each revelatory memory.⁣ ⁣ Do you see any of your favorites in this stack?⁣ 📚🍷⁣ .⁣ .⁣ #spinesvines #booksandwine #diversespines #bookstack #bookspines #APICelebrAsian #API #APAHM (at Washington D.C.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CALuP9SA5HV/?igshid=xiz4opk6nnww

#throwbookthursday to the first Book Series I ever read. The Peter and the Starcatcher series by Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson. These books were everything and I can't see myself getting rid of them anytime soon. #booksforlife #peterandthestarcatcher #davebarry #ridleypearson #booktube #bookstagram #books #reading #throwbackthursday #throwback #lovemybooks

“Richard Nixon’s visit to Peking in 1972 ended twenty years of confrontation and isolation between the United States and China. Throughout the 1950s, the two countries inhabited two different camps in a rigidly polarized world. The United States was the leader of global alliance of capitalist states created to prevent the spread of communism. China, its communist revolution victorious, cast its lot with the rival bloc headed by the Soviet Union, which viewed its mission as promoting the victory of socialism over capitalism.”
