«The New Austerity» 140x100cm . I’m rarely this topical, but this topic is unignorable. The painting will be part of the xmas exhibition at @galleriaaminor opening thursday des 5th 1800 hrs. So if in Oslo come by and have a look, and a drink, and a chat, yes? . Hmm, come to think of it this means I finally get to use the hashtag #ThursdayNext (Sorry, just a fan @jasperfforde ;)) . . #climatechange #climate #iceberg #arctic #child #party #oiloncanvas #Art #balloons #Painting #oilpainting #Contemporaryart #Kunst #Maleri #artist #oslo #representationalpainting #figurativeart #ghoststory #vernissage #galleriaaminor https://www.instagram.com/p/B5as39-HJWO/?igshid=33gpxf1g7qtl

„But I don’t want the good times! I want all of them!

🍂Happy September 1st! I’m in such a moody academic mood—sauntering with the elegant set, conversing over Mary Shelley by the fire. Leather bound books that carry the fingerprints of the “immortal” youth that once graced this grand oak library. Their secrets, terrible and true, scrawled in pencil over endpapers... I’ve had The Goldfinch since it’s release, and now seems the time to give it a whirl. If We Are Villains is another novel I’ve been eying for awhile. And of course, I’m immersed in my continued adventure with Ms. Thursday Next. Gosh, I’m loving Lost in a Good Book so much! That’s my life in books, ladies and gentlemen. #bookstagram #darkacademia #thegoldfinch #donnatartt #thursdaynext #jasperfforde #lightacademia https://www.instagram.com/p/B14V06hgNBt/?igshid=fgy1zi8f06tb

My Jasper Fforde collection. Still growing, hoping to find matching editions of the first two, if I’m lucky! . . . . . #jasperfforde #thursdaynext (at Brisbane, Queensland, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzjWECcF-hv/?igshid=1num50eedc950

A Once Upon a Time kind of day. It’s a shame I’m already thinking of Fall TV and Back to School sales at Staples. I know. #instaknit #knitstagram #bookstagram #thursdaynext #jasperfforde https://www.instagram.com/p/ByyUESYAqiO/?igshid=wq3oi6atbels

Yesterday, I finished Eyre Affair, and my heart is pleased! Just, Bravo, Mr. Fforde. And now, a bookish dilemma. Move on to the next in my new friend Thursday Next’s story, Lost in a Good Book, or finally finish the third School for Good and Evil. Or both. Hmm... #bookstagram #jasperfforde #thursdaynext #schoolforgoodandevil #somanchainani #goodbooks https://www.instagram.com/p/BygVNrjAdBq/?igshid=vtvd75k33hda

I'm sitting here trying to put into words my thoughts on this book, but I'm also surrounded by that well known bubble of sadness that appears when you turn the final page of a terrific book. Anyone who mentions #books to me will likely end up getting a 10 - 15 minute lecture on why they need to check out @jasperfforde's books. Words like clever, unique, funny, and smart will be tossed around, but they barely scratch the surface. When I get my hands on one of his books for the first time, I'm like a six year old on Christmas morning. And he has never disappointed. Because life gets in the way, it took me longer to read #EarlyRiser than I thought it would, but I truly loved every page, paragraph, sentence, and word. I savored the story and I'm so sorry it came to an end. I loved the characters and I LOVE how Fforde always...ALWAYS...gets me with the twist. I can usually guess what'll happen next in most books, but he always zigs when I think he'll zag. If you haven't yet, I implore you to check out his books. I always recommend starting with #TheEyreAffair, the first in the #ThursdayNext books, only because, even though I've loved all his works, it began with Thursday. #Read #ReadersOfInstagram #Reader #book #Bookstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/BnP8MJknUYh/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=yjhrfezympju
