Since I unsubscribed from OwlCrate I have seriously missed getting special packages in the mail filled with wonderful bookish surprises. When Novelly Yours, my favorite bookish candle shop, announced an entire box inspired by my favorite YA author's work, you know I absolutely could not resist. I waited almost an entire month for this gem … Continue reading Mapped by Maggie from Novelly Yours

Gift Guide: Bookish Candles
I work part time at a candle store and part time at a library, so my interests really merge in the bookish candle. I got hooked on them when I joined bookstagram, because I really just couldn't pass up a candle of my favorite character or setting. There is something so atmospheric in reading a … Continue reading Gift Guide: Bookish Candles
Gift Guide: Bookmarks
Today, I want to chat about my current obsession: bookmarks. I am crazy about these things right now for no other reason than that there are so many artists putting out amazing designs.

Reading Day Essentials
My favorite day is a stay-inside-all-day reading day -- the kind that involves a lot of hot drinks, preferably some gloomy weather, a nice and long TBR stack, and lots and lots of coziness. I've spent the past three days perfecting my reading day, and I think I may have crafted my recipe for all … Continue reading Reading Day Essentials
Abigail’s Book Shopping Guide
The one thing I love more than reading books is buying them. I just can't help myself - there is almost nothing that gets my blood pumping like browsing a bookstore or filling up my online shopping cart. As much as I like to buy books, I almost never buy them full price. Hear me … Continue reading Abigail’s Book Shopping Guide
