What read are you most anticipating this month? Having read Shusterman's Arc of a Scythe series, I'm really excited to read Dry! I'm not sure when I'll actually get around to it, but I imagine I will soon! I've heard loads of great things about it 😀 plus the cover is so striking I think! * * 🌸#allthebooksjune19 - cover love * * #books #bookworm #bookdragon #booknerd #amreading #bookstagram #bookphotography #currentlyreading #bookrecommendations #instabook #bookflatlay #prettybooks #booksarelife #booksofinsta #bookcommunity #bookaesthetic #coverlove #dry #nealshusterman

What are you planning on reading next? I'm currently reading The Eyes of Tamburah and it's great! But next I've got @paperfury's The Boy Who Steals Houses lined up and I've heard an ENORMOUS number of good things about it - I can't wait! I'm also hoping to get to Empire of Sand this month too 🤞🏻 * * Side note, I'm very pleased with myself. I made a new prop (3rd pic) because a mug I looove that I bought in Ireland broke and I couldn't bear to throw it out. So now, it has been promoted from Tea Holder to Photo Prop. Long may it live and prosper ☕ * * 🌸#BookRavensJun19 - freebie 🌸#BookQueensJune19 - flowers of funkos (flowers FTW!) 🌸#allthebooksjune19 - reading next * * #books #bookworm #bookdragon #booknerd #amreading #bookstagram #bookphotography #currentlyreading #bookrecommendations #instabook #bookflatlay #prettybooks #booksarelife #booksofinsta #bookcommunity #bookaesthetic #theboywhostealshouses #theeyesoftamburah #empireofsand

Fantasy or contemporary? * * I'm definitely a fantasy person but that being said, I've read some great contemporaries recently. I find I just had to space them out so that I pace myself! Otherwise the stories can be very same-same. * * On a different note, I wish more books had fun chapter headings/titles! So many of them these days are just numbered or the name of the perspective. I love books like Harry Potter where each heading is a bit of fun. * * 🌸 #BookRavensJun19 - favourite chapter heading 🌸 #BookQueensJune19 - fantasy or contemporary * * #books #bookworm #bookdragon #booknerd #amreading #bookstagram #bookphotography #currentlyreading #bookrecommendations #instabook #bookflatlay #prettybooks #booksarelife #booksofinsta #bookcommunity #bookaesthetic #fantasybooks #contemporarybooks #ajigsawoffireandstars #thug #thehateugive

There's always something great about fantasy books with a main character who has a dark past, and some great obstacle to overcome. What's your favourite trope? * * #allthebooksjune19 - magical reads #tinylovejune19 - dark past * * #books #bookworm #bookdragon #booknerd #amreading #bookstagram #bookphotography #currentlyreading #bookrecommendations #instabook #bookflatlay #prettybooks #booksarelife #booksofinsta #bookcommunity #bookaesthetic #magic #fantasybooks #yabooks #empireofsand #throneofglass #threedarkcrowns

Which do you prefer, sea or space? Considering I have a general (severe) phobia of the ocean, I'll have to pick space for this one 😂 that being said, I do love me some pirates! * * I survived my first day in my new job 🎉 what a shock to the body having 6am starts for what feels like the first time in a LONG time. At least I get to read on my commute 💪🏻 do you read on your way to work? * * 🌸 #BookRavensJun19 - sea or space * * #books #bookworm #bookdragon #booknerd #amreading #bookstagram #bookphotography #currentlyreading #bookrecommendations #instabook #bookflatlay #prettybooks #booksarelife #booksofinsta #bookcommunity #bookaesthetic #passenger #acrosstheuniverse

Do you have any bookish candles? I looove them but I haven't bought one for some time. One of my favourite stores a few years ago was Burning Pages. There are so many other American companies I'd love to try but wahhh the shipping is so expensive! * * The Sherlock candle is scented after leather books, pipe tobacco, spiced mahogany and coffee. Whilst the Bag End candle is scented after fresh grass, cloves and pipe tobacco. But no, pipe tobacco is not my favourite scent 😂😂 sandalwood is! * * 🌸 #allthebooksjune19 - candle love * * #books #bookworm #bookdragon #booknerd #amreading #bookstagram #bookphotography #currentlyreading #bookrecommendations #instabook #bookflatlay #prettybooks #booksarelife #booksofinsta #bookcommunity #bookaesthetic #bookishcandles #candles

#shelfiesunday - I rearranged my shelves the other night in order to fit a few more books in and change where I kept my ARCs. If you ask me, id say I found more room to buy more books? Them gaps need filling 😬📚 * * #allthebooksjune19 - share a #shelfie #BookQueensJune19 - shelfie sunday * * #books #bookworm #bookdragon #booknerd #amreading #bookstagram #bookphotography #currentlyreading #bookrecommendations #instabook #bookflatlay #prettybooks #booksarelife #booksofinsta #bookcommunity #bookaesthetic #bookshelves

Who do you think is the villain in Frankenstein? Victor or his monster? * * I've always loooved Frankenstein and I think it's such an interesting read and really delivered Shelley's warning about the danger of taking science too far and reminding people of the importance of family. It's such a haunting tale! I think the monster is such an epic creature even though he does wicked things. Victor, for me, is the villain without a doubt. Even if he's a villain through cowardice to fix his wrongs rather than any malicious intent. * * #tinylovejune19 - favourite villain * , #books #bookworm #bookdragon #booknerd #amreading #bookstagram #bookphotography #currentlyreading #bookrecommendations #instabook #bookflatlay #prettybooks #booksarelife #booksofinsta #bookcommunity #bookaesthetic #frankenstein #maryshelley #villain #favouritebook #openbook

#stacksaturday 📚 what's on your agenda this weekend? * * This weekend is a busy one for me! But in between seeing family and friends (and buy new clothes for my new job!!) I'm hoping to get some more photos taken! But we shall see if I actually have time 🤔 * * Speaking of Instagram, my new video went up yesterday for my How To for making your own backdrop for cheap for Instagram! Make sure you check out the video by following the link in my bio! * * 🌸 #BookRavensJun19 - stack Saturday * * #books #bookworm #bookdragon #booknerd #amreading #bookstagram #bookphotography #currentlyreading #bookrecommendations #instabook #bookflatlay #prettybooks #booksarelife #booksofinsta #bookcommunity #bookaesthetic #DitchTheJacket
