💬 What are your favorite small shops?⁠ 🌈⁠ Happy Saturday!⁠ .⁠ I know I am terribly late to post today but for our #readinginnovember20 I wanted to show all my appreciation for small shops!⁠ .⁠ We all know that COVID has really took its toll on some of these shops so let's show them how much we appreciate them!⁠ .⁠ Drop your favorites below.⁠ .⁠ Here are a few of mines:⁠ 🌈@thestorygift (art in the center of the picture) because Deema may be closing her shop but she'll still remain this incredibly talented lady with a huge heart!⁠ .⁠ 🌈@bookbookowl (all the bookmarks around) because not only does Jen have gorgeous bookmarks, outstanding pictures on her bookstagram account but she is also a hoot to work for!⁠ .⁠ 🌈@beaconbookbox (not in the picture) for whom I rep too, small company but growing bigger by a minute. They are an amazing family, have lots of energy, genuinely care for their clients and great merch!⁠ .⁠ You can buy at all these with a discount using my rep codes in bio.⁠ .⁠ Not a rep but loving their merch anyway are @bookishburns and @bookwormcandles
💗💗REP SEARCH💗💗 . HI @faecrate , . I am 💗💗REP SEARCH💗💗 . HI @faecrate , . I am Sophie from Belgium and entering your rep search for the first time. You could say that seeing all your pretty books, polaroids and amazing merch on other's feed really caught my eyes. 🤣 . So much that I ordered your October box which has now left Miami to fly to me. Hopefully I'll have an unboxing to post on my IGTV in a few days 😉. . I am applying to your search because I've been seduced by your choice of supporting indie authors and going the extra mile to put different merch and different fandom from other boxes. . I also think that I am fitting your criterias in what you are looking for in a rep as I take high quality picture, love interacting with my fellow bookstagrammers and I do all my unboxings live ( more fun as I interact with people) then post on my IGTV. Have a look because I have quite a few now. . I am also taking my job as a rep very seriously as my track record can attest. . Thank you for reading so far and good luck with your search! 💗 . . . #faecraterep12 #repsearch #bibliophile #bookdragon #hypedbooks #Bookstack #bookgram #bookconnoisseur #bookstabelgium #bookhoarder #indie #inspiredbybookish #creativegram
💬What makes you DNF a book?⁠ 🖤⁠ I have r 💬What makes you DNF a book?⁠ 🖤⁠ I have recently realized with Addie Larue and The Ten Thousand Lives of January that books with gorgeous writing but with slow pacing and written in the third POV are my downfall!⁠ .⁠ Both books are very hyped and have indeed a truly beautiful penmaship and original ideas but ...they just didn't work for me.⁠ 💛⁠ What can also make me DNF a book is when I can't connect with the characters. If I can't be in their head, feel their emotions I won't care about what happens to them and I'll stop.⁠ Or if there is cheating.⁠ Or if there is too much angst (I can't stand it and have to peek at the end to know if I'll get my HEA).⁠ Or too much cussing. Like, the f*** word three times in every other sentence.⁠ Or if the heroine is just a doormat.⁠ 💜⁠ Rep Post and Small Business Appreciation That gorgeous Sleeping Beauty candle comes from @thestorygift.⁠ As you have heard, she is closing her business and won't restock so that candle can't be bought anymore BUT there is still merch for you to grab!⁠ .⁠ Use my rep code BEWARE10 as a discount! ⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ ⁠ #ig_color #humansofbookstagram #myhomevibe #fanart #readinglist #bewareofthereader #beautifulbooks #bookloversunite #colourmyhome #crashbangcolour #booknerdigans⁠ #bookishcandles #bookstack #bookpile #pursuepretty #vscobook #ig_color #enter_imagination #artofvisuals #artshub #worldofartists #bookishfeatures #amreading #humansofbookstagram #bookcommunity #bookblogger #ireadfantasy #epicread #bookstack⁠ ⁠
“I want to survive this world that keeps trying “I want to survive this world that keeps trying to destroy me.”⁠ ― Leigh Bardugo, Ninth House⁠ 🖤⁠ 💬What is your favorite black book?⁠ 🖤⁠ Happy Black Friday!⁠ .⁠ Today's theme for #readinginnovember20 was black book to honor black Friday.⁠ .⁠ I think Ninth House was an amazing read but it's also a love or hate book!⁠ You either love it or DNF it by the reviews I have seen.⁠ .⁠ I must confess that the beginning was alot of info dump about a new universe and a little disorienting but I soldiered on and I fell in love with the unique mood!⁠ Very gothic might I say 😜⁠ 🖤⁠
Just a short caption today to say how much I love Just a short caption today to say how much I love the framed print of @rosiethorns88 and that incredible special edition of Addie Larue that we got in our Illumicrate!⁠ .⁠ For the anecdote, photographing that print was very tricky as the glass kept reflecting the light and I couldn't get it right 🤣⁠ .⁠ And confession: if the writing was gorgeous, the book sadly was not for me. Too slow and too repetitive.
“Holden. You deserve to be loved out loud.” ⁠ When You Come Back to Me by Emma Scott⁠ 🦃⁠ Happy Thanksgiving for those who celebrate!⁠ I hope that despite this weird year you'll get to be with your loved one and enjoy some cozy and warm moments.⁠ 🦃⁠ Today's picture is for our #redinginnovember20 prompt : books you are thankful for.⁠ .⁠ I don't know you but I am thankful for books who help me becoming a better person. More accepting, less judgemental. Books who open my eyes on a reality different than mine.⁠ Be it because the hero is from another culture, another religion has other sexual preferences or went through huge ordeals...⁠ .⁠ When You Come Back to me by @emmascottwrites is one of these books. I was really revolted by what Holden's parents did to him.⁠ No parent should ship their children in a conversion therapy camp. That's barbaric!⁠ I had no idea these existed before reading Someday, Somdey (linked to this book) and I was appalled.⁠ .⁠ Another eye opening book was Birthday by Meredith Russo or The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas or even The Radius of Us by Marie Marquardt⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ #booksandbeingthankful #courtofreading #fortheloveofbooks #bibliophile #booknerd #bookworm #bookaddict #booksta #bookstagrammer #bookcommunity #cozyreading #romancebook #cozyvibes #lovetoread #bookmarks #bookfan #booksbooksbooks #LGBTQ #flatlay #flatlaystyle #readingcorner #booknookstagram #aestheticlypleasing #ireadromance #romancebook #indieauthors ⁠
What hyped book just didn't work for you? . Trut What hyped book just didn't work for you? . Truth time and unpopular opinion post! . I so wanted to love Addie Larue! I currently have three copies of that book, one is a gorgeous special edition of Illumicrate. And yes the writing is utterly gorgeous. Yes the beginning is enchanting and gripping. Yes I loved the ending. BUT I am not a fan of pas/present stories and the past stories had a repetitive pattern. Also written in a third POV did not make it easy for me to connect with the characters. I objectively knew that Addie's live was sad for so long but my heart and soul didn't feel it and I couldn't get invested in her story. . Now Luc made me think of the Darkling. I don't know if I am the only one??? . So sorry for those who loved it and I get that. It has many assets but just was not for me. . ||RepPost You can admire the beautiful bookmark from @bookbookowl (swipe) and buy it with a DISCOUNT using my rep code BEWARE15 . . . #bookdragon #customfunkopop #myeverydaymagic #hyggehome #hyggestyle #booksaremagic #veschwab #alliseeispretty #simplethingsmadebeautiful #lovetoread #prettybookplaces #bookstagrammers #bookmerch #booksbooksandmorebooks #cultripbooks #buchladen #booknerds #lovetoread #bookaesthetic  #bookstack
💬Do you have pets?⁠ 🐩⁠ Happy Wednesday!⁠ .⁠ I swear my dog is really wondering what I am doing !🙈⁠ Look at her face all puzzled!⁠ She should know by now that her mom has no shame!⁠ .⁠ That's what happens when I get once more desperate with our daily topic for our #readinginnovember20 "Winter ourfit".⁠ .⁠ I had not planned at all for today's pic and had to work some edit magic again to have something vaguely acceptable.⁠ At least I hope it's a little bit funny!⁠ I promise you won't see me in my pics so soon anymore as you must be fed up by now 🤣⁠ 🐩⁠ Rep Post ⁠ Anyway, I wanted to remind you of @beaconbookbox SUNDAY BEFORE BLACK FRIDAY sale 🥳🥳⁠ Items from our past boxes are listed with items from TWILIGHT, KIERA CASS, BLOOD & HONEY and monthly boxes.⁠ .⁠ What's even best is that my rep post READER5 will also get you an added DISCOUNT.⁠ 🐩⁠ And this is also me making a Book Mini Me just like @oliviascatastrophe
