Sunday #bookstackchallenge! My entry for #sandvssanity - my nice stack 🎄🎁 @sand_between_pages and @momssanity are hosting a naughty vs nice challenge, and my version of nice is books that made me happy/smile 😊. PLUS, look at this bookmark I was delighted to receive in the mail yesterday 🥰! I won a giveaway from local artist @eclecticoldbag for a gift card to a local coffee shop where her art is on display, and she surprised me with this sweet gift! The little star charm even says "just for you" 🥰😍 how sweet is that?! Go give her a follow for me! Do you prefer a version of "naughty" reads or "nice" ones? #bookchallenge #bookstack #christmasvibes #bookfriends #booksbooksbooks #bookworm #bookwormlife #bookish #bookishlife #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #booklover #booklife #readingcommunity #readinglife #goodbooks #amreading #readersofinstagram #booksofinstagram #bookphoto #bookpost #readreadread #booksconnectus

Read. This. Book. ☆Book Review☆ This book is beautiful. It's heartbreaking. It's hopeful. It should be on your list! I fell in love with the main character, Rosalie. After her father dies, she's taken from her home in the woods and put into a bad foster care situation in the city, with a non-native family. This book is really about a journey - Rosalie's journey to discover her family, her heritage, herself. It depicts the ridiculous struggle and violence and oppression native people faced when settlers swooped in and destroyed their lives and took away their children. But somehow, Diane Wilson takes all of that and makes it this amazingly beautiful story. I can't gush about this one enough. Allll the stars. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #bookreview #bookreviews #5stars #bookstagram #bookstagramfeature #bookrecommendations #bookrecommendation #whatshouldireadnext #booksbooksbooks #bookworm #bookwormlife #theseedkeeper #amreading #readreadread #bookpost #booksofinstagram #bookaholic

Hey December 👋🏻🎄❄ My book club this month is reading Dear Edward and I'm super psyched! It's one of my favorites of the year, and I'm excited to talk about it with some other book lovers 💕. I love when we have different opinions about a book and get to see it from another angle. Are you doing any book club or buddy reads this month? #bookclubbook #bookclub #bookclubpick #bookclubsofinstagram #dearedward #bookstagram #amreading #currentread #bookworm #bookaddict #booksofinstagram #readersofinstagram #booknerd #bookwormlife #booksbooksbooks #girlybookclub

🌵 blooming cactus 🌵 My cactus is not the most photogenic, but these blooms 🤩. So, here are some pretty TBR picks with my pretty cactus flowers. Life is busy around here. The holidays are always such a whirlwind! I need to schedule some holiday mindfulness into my days, besides reading in the evenings. Anyone have some favorite ways to add mindfulness to your busy days? #bookstack #tbrlist #tbrpile #tbrstack #christmascactus #amreading #booksbooksbooks #booksandplants #booksofinstagram #booksofig #bookstagrammer #toberead #tbr #bookwormlife #bookworm #bookish #bookaddict #bookblogger #bookaesthetic #readingcommunity #booknerd #plantsandbooks #bookhoarder #bookcommunity

Happy Small Business Saturday! I went shopping in downtown Two Harbors, MN, by the shore of Lake Superior. Yes, it's as cute as you're imagining 😍. Plus, we woke up to a little blanket of snow! I found these two used beauties at @backfortybooks. So hard to choose what to get there! They have a huge selection of used books, plus some new ones in front. The Book of Longings and Virgil Wander just called to me! Excited to add these to my shelves 📚 and of course, read them! Are you doing any shopping today, books or otherwise? #smallbusinesssaturday #newbook #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #booksbooksbooks #bookstack #bookaddict #books #bookstagrammer #mnblogger #mnbookstagrammer #amreading #booksbooksbooks #readersofinstagram #readreadread #cabinlife #twoharbors #backfortybooks

》Book Review《 Thank you so much @jenniferhauptauthor for sending me your book! #bookreview This was a book chock full of hard emotions, hard decisions, and hard realizations. Lots of hard things, but it was really a beautiful story about so much human-ness. These teens grapple with very adult situations like pregnancy, addiction, and deep grief. Overall I enjoyed this book. There were just a couple times where I felt disconnected from the main character and her decisions. I'm not sure why...maybe there needed to be more development and explanation about why she did things. However this one comes with a recommendation from me if this kind of emotional read appeals to you! Synopsis: Zane and Skye are two misfit teens drawn together by their love of music and their loneliness, both part of Seattle’s grunge scene in the early ‘90s. They dream of moving to L.A. together: Zane’s music career following the trajectory of Kurt Cobain and Eddie Vedder, and Skye drawing Picasso-esque portraits on the Venice Beach boardwalk. When a tragedy violently catapults them from best friends to lovers, their bond is forever strengthened and their relationship destroyed. Ten years later, they must come together as parents, putting aside abandoned dreams and broken promises. The question is: can they face the truth of who they are, and become the parents their daughter needs them to be? #bookfeature #bookrecommendations #bookblogger #booksbooksbooks #bookstagram #boomstagrammer #bookblogger #amreading #bookworm #bookwormlife #bookish #bookishlife #bookaddict #bookaholic #bookcommunity #bookpost #bookobsessed #booknerd #booklover #booklove #booksbooksandmorebooks #bookstagramfeature

🍁 Happy Thanksgiving 🍁 Here are a few random books I'm thankful for 😊 for @sand_between_pages's #THANKFULLYBOOKS tag! A couple of these I read this year, but some are from previous years. I just grabbed a few that stood out today 💜. Thankful today for family and friends, good food, and good books 📚. We're heading up north to the cabin today for the weekend! As usual, I can't decide which books to bring 🙃. What are you reading this weekend? Any books you're feeling thankful for? #bookstack #booktag #bookstagram #bookworm #bookstackchallenge #booksofig #booksofinstagram #readersofinstagram #happythanksgiving #thankful #thankfulforbooks #amreading #booksbooksbooks #lovebooks #booklover #bookwormlife
