“The thing about being this close to someone is that when you hurt them, you hurt yourself.” - Jenn Bennett, Chasing Lucky •——————————————————————————————• I flew through this gem the other night in one sitting. I love when a book is so good you just can’t put it down! That’s pretty much every Jenn Bennett book for me. I loved the setting of this story, small New England town, with our photographer mc who work in her family owned bookstore just being bonus points. While Alex, Approximately is still my reigning favorite, Chasing Lucky has claimed second place (sorry Serious Moonlight) and now I’m back to craving a new Jenn Bennett book fix.. •——————————————————————————————• #jennbennett #chasinglucky #bookspine #yalit #yabooks #yacontemporary #bookshelves #bookshelvesofinstagram #bookish #booklove #readingforfun #readingforpleasure #beautifulbooks #bookstagram #bookishlove #bookishlife #winterbookstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CKevG2nAFQo/?igshid=rms6uyc6ouud

“Now the days of winter begin and the Goblin King rides abroad, searching for his bride.” -S. Jae-Jones, Wintersong •——————————————————————————• It is still downright COLD in Oklahoma and we got more snow dumped on us last night but they’re forecasting 50s next week which will probably be when I get my copy of ACOSF because snowpocylpse delayed it 😭 but at least we have power, rolling black outs but power comes back on, I feel so bad for Texas. I hope all my Texas friends are staying warm 🥺 hang in there guys 💙 •——————————————————————————• #bookstack #bookspines #bookishmug #booksandcoffee #booksbooksbooks #bookshelves #bookshelvesofinstagram #bibliophile #beautifulbooks #bibliophilelife #readersofinstagram #readingforpleasure #wintersong #sjaejones #bookcommunity #readers #winterbooks #winterbookstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CLZ8BQCgVHd/?igshid=196y8kfuab6py

“The heart makes dreams seem like ideas.” -Daniel Woodrell, Winter's Bone ••———–———–———–———–———–—•• It’s a chilly day in Oklahoma and I’m cold inside and out. Yesterday was an extremely dark day for democracy and an embarrassment for the USA. Do what you gotta do to process it, hug a cat, read a book or doomscroll Twitter. Stay safe friends 💙 ••———–———–———–———–———–—•• #bookstack #bookspines #bookaholic #booksandcandles #candlesofinstagram #bookworm #readmorebooks #beautifulbooks #bookobsessed #bookish #booknerd #booknerdigans #bibliophile #bookaddict #booklove #bookaholic #snowday #winterbookstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CJwgmBNAzrn/?igshid=db1m9pqw950c

I for one will not be unhappy to see 2020 go. This has been an unprecedentedly horrible year for so many. For me it took a heavy toll on my already fragile mental health. 2020 began with my cat dying, she was 19 and we had grown up together. Then I was laid off from a company I’d worked for for 7 years. Through an email. At the end of the month. Which meant I lost my health insurance at the same time. In the middle of a pandemic. Then husband lost his job a month later. Then we lost his health care and discovered how much out of pocket health insurance costs, which is roughly a monthly mortgage payment. For health care! ••————————————————————•• There were bright spots. I became and Owlcrate Rep, which has been such a blessing! I got out of a toxic work environment. I discovered The Office and watched Hamilton when it dropped at 2am. We got Juniper, and since we were both stuck at home job hunting and avoiding coronavirus, we got to spend all day every day with her. We watched her grow right in front of us. I got a part time job where I can work from home and I was finally forced to apply to graduate school instead of just thinking about it. ••————————————————————•• I know 2021 isn’t going to be a magical new start but after spending 9 months in limbo I am so relieved to be moving on. So Happy New Year friends, I hope 2021 will be kinder to us all! 🥂 ••————————————————————•• #bookstack #bookspines #bookish #almostmidnight #rainbowrowell #maybethistime #kasiewest #beautifulbooks #winterbookstagram #yabooks #yalit #bookish #bookishlove #booklove #booklife #booksbooksbooks #newyearseve #newyears #readersofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CJeZ7FTglZ9/?igshid=10n2pehipubs0

“I understand how difficult it is, putting your heart in someone else’s hands. But, if you don’t, how will you ever truly know a person?” -Renee Ahdieh, The Wrath and the Dawn •—————————————————————————• Today I’m shooting books without my trusty assistant. Chairman is at the vet getting his teeth cleaned and I’m an anxious mess because he has to go under anesthesia for that process and it’s the year of bad things and I will just feel so much better when I can pick him up at 4:00 and see that he’s ok. Anyone else overly emotionally attached to their pets? 😅 •—————————————————————————• #thewrathandthedawn #theroseandthedagger #reneeahdieh #winterbookstagram #cozybooks #cozybookstagram #retelling #booklove #booklover #bibliophilelife #bibliophile #booknerdigans #booksbooksbooks #beautifulbooks #yalit #yabooks #bookish #bookishaesthetic https://www.instagram.com/p/CIlqg0WgtK7/?igshid=1cihefcle3s8a

“Briars, brambles, bones, and blossom, I smell a girl who can’t be forgotten.” -Ashley Poston, Among the Beasts & Briars ••————–————–————–————–•• Among the Beasts and Briars was one of my favorite reads last year! I love @_ashposton’s writing and this book did not disappoint! A new kind of fairytale where the damsel is also the hero 😍 I got so excited when I figured out @owlcrate was including it in their November box, and I absolutely LOVE this exclusive cover! (Psst Owlcrate still has some copies available on their website if you missed out!) ••————–————–————–————–•• The gorgeous art on the dust jacket is by @cathrinpeterslund and the monthly pin was designed by @morganebrretshop and is one of my favorites pins of 2020 ••————–————–————–————–•• January’s theme is From Olympus with Love and it sounds AMAZING!
