Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

My holiday readathon of Harry Potter lasted a little longer than anticipated, so Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows became the first book I read in the New Year. This review will be short because I haven't had much time to write and reflect with the post-holiday funk I'm feeling and work and all of …

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

The beast is conquered! The longest and most convoluted of the Harry Potter books, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, chose a terrible time to be my current read: I started it the weekend before Thanksgiving, and the holiday season, working, and a death in the family all arrived very shortly after so …

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

This installment has far and away been my favorite of the Harry Potter series, and no small part of that is the introduction of Remus Lupin and Sirius Black. Since they're my favorite ever, ever, ever, I'll spend almost the whole post talking about them and then add a few observations at the end! A …

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone

Happy Harry Potter read-athon! Today marks the official beginning of my holiday read-through of the Harry Potter series! I kicked it off unofficially by watching Freeform's Harry Potter weekend (I watched the last three movies twice last weekend, and it didn't get old!) and by crafting some fun HP inspired goodies, which I will share …

Harry Potter Holiday Readathon

Immediately after the bell struck midnight on Halloween night, Christmas awoke from its year long slumber. I'm not joking, there were Christmas trees cropping up where mere hours ago a jack-o-lantern was standing sentry. I think we have this discussion as a society every year, but I'll say it again -- I think Christmas came …

I ordered my first @sleepingcatcandles this month and they’re so perfect. I haven’t burned them all yet but I think I’m terribly partial to #currentlyreading... #bookstagram #brontesisters #edgarallanpoe #spring #earlygrey #bookishcandles
Today is the last day to grab the amazing #mappedbymaggie box from the candle queen @novellyyours and I just realized I never shared mine! There’s a post about it on my blog if you’re interested! (Link in bio) #bookstagram #maggiestiefvater #thescorpioraces #theravencycle #allthecrookedsaints #thewolvesofmercyfalls #candle #bookstagram #bookbox #bookcandle
It’s been pouring rain all morning so I accidentally slept in until 10... 💀 I started #circe by @madeline.e.miller last night and I love it so far! The prose and character building are so exquisite! #bookstagram #bookstack #mockorange #spring
Spring is in full swing this weekend. I’m going to celebrate with a book, some lemonade, and lots of lazy naps in the sun. #janeeyre #charlottebronte #spring #bookstagram #books #azaleas #flowers
Watched the film on Monday and bought the book on Tuesday! It’s been wonderful so far. What was the last book you ran to get after seeing the film adaptation? #bookstagram #books #thisiswhereileaveyou #jonathantropper #contemporaryfiction #filmadaptation #mockorange
It’s #nationallibraryweek! I had to specially designate this little table outside of my room for all my library books so they wouldn’t get lost in the shuffle of my own personal library. I hardly ever have the book completed by the time I return it 😣 but I know where to get it again! See any you’d check out? #library #reading #librarybooks #bookstack #bookstagram
