snapshots of reading // bookstagram

I’m feeling renewed in my love for story after a few recent conversations and even this morning’s message at church. God is the ultimate storyteller and I’m so thankful that he gave us books and the ability to read, write, and tell stories. What a gift!! ✨ It’s been a run-around weekend that’s not over yet, but I’m hoping for at least a bit of relaxing reading time. Hope you all get a bit of downtime with a good book this weekend, too. It’s good for the soul! ✨ • • • • • #bookish #booklover #bibliophile #reader #bookgeek #bookstagram #bookworm #booklove #readinglife #booksandcoffee
If you missed it in my stories, I had the funniest/best bookish moment this week. If I was on the @currentlyreadingpodcast, you can bet I would be sharing this. ✨ On a rainy Wednesday, my 8yo son (who’s an avid reader) took it upon himself to create a stack of some of his books, place them by my plant, and pick up our iPad and snap a photo of it. He messaged the photo to me with the caption: “Bookstagram👌😆😂” ✨ Yeah, I about died laughing at the cuteness of that. I figured his stack was a great one to post (although I took this version of the pic since he left the stack out) for #middlegrademarch, although I’m shocked he didn’t include NEVERMOOR or WUNDERSMITH. He’s halfway thru book 2 and cannot stop talking about how much he loves them. My older daughter is reading NEVERMOOR and then I’ll be cracking it open next before it’s due back to the library. ✨ Happy Friday, #bookstagram! ✨ • • • • • #bookish #booklover #bibliophile #reader #bookgeek #bookstagram #bookworm #booklove #readinglife #bookstack #librarylove #rasingreaders #bookishmoment
Happy first day of spring!! ☀️🌸🌦🌺☀️ • • • • #bookstagram #bookshelves #booksandflowers
A few books I’ve finished lately, out in the sunshine: ✨ BECAUSE OF WINN-DIXIE, which was delightful, THRONE OF GLASS, which I liked, but was glad to hear that the series gets better (and better-written) as it goes on, and FOOLISH HEARTS, which I confess wasn’t my favorite of Emma Mills’ books, but I still liked it after the ending wrapped up. ✨ I returned these today and picked up three new books that I didn’t need. 😆 As one does! ✨ • • • • • #bookish #booklover #bibliophile #reader #bookgeek #bookstagram #bookworm #booklove #readinglife #bookstack #librarylove #middlegrademarch #amreadingya
What a fun week it’s been doing #jennsrainbowchallenge with @jennsbookvibes! I rarely finish a challenge so I’m pretty proud I was able to complete this one. 💜 I had to borrow a few books from my kids for this stack. My son is chomping at the bit for me to read NEVERMOOR so we can chat about it. The same kid is currently in tears because we are putting him to bed with a chapter left in HP & THE PRISONER OF AZKABAN. Sorry, Bro, it’s not my fault JK’s chapters are an hour long on audio! (Don’t worry, I promised him we’d finish it tomorrow.) 💜 And yes, that’s my beloved Kindle up on top. 😁 💜 Thank you again, Jenn, for a great, fun challenge! 🌈 💜 Any favorites for you in this stack? ✨ • • • • • #bookish #booklover #bibliophile #reader #bookgeek #bookstagram #bookworm #booklove #readinglife #bookstack #bookishfeatures #rainbowstack #purplestack #purplebooks
This is probably my favorite color stack of the challenge! I love me some blue (especially Dodger blue 😉). 💙 This is mostly a stack of books I’ve read (and loved) with the exception of THE LIBRARY AT THE EDGE OF THE WORLD and THE PROPOSAL. 💙 #jennsrainbowchallenge @jennsbookvibes 💙 Any favorites for you in this stack? ✨ • • • • • #bookish #booklover #bibliophile #reader #bookgeek #bookstagram #bookworm #booklove #readinglife #bookstack #bookishfeatures #rainbowstack #bluestack #bluebooks
I got a little behind, but here is my #greenbookstack for #jennsrainbowchallenge! @jennsbookvibes 💚 This stack has some great #middlegrademarch titles like BECAUSE OF WINN-DIXIE which I just read and adored. 💚 I’ve actually read all the books here and loved them all in their own way. 💚 Any favorites for you in this stack? ✨ • • • • • #bookish #booklover #bibliophile #reader #bookgeek #bookstagram #bookworm #booklove #readinglife #bookstack #bookishfeatures #rainbowstack #greenbooks
It’s yellow day for #jennsrainbowchallenge! Thankfully IG is cooperating again so I can post my stack. This was a fun one to put together (and I’ll post a bonus shot in my stories of my all yellow shelf section). @jennsbookvibes 💛 We even had a sunny day to go with this stack today. ☀️ A couple of these are on my TBR, a couple are old faves, and one was written by a real-life friend. 😊 💛 Any favorites in this stack? ✨ • • • • • #bookish #booklover #bibliophile #reader #bookgeek #bookstagram #bookworm #booklove #readinglife #bookstack #bookishfeatures #rainbowstack #yellowbooks
