Bookstagram: @bookishjade

Good morning! The wonderful @ohcomelymag came out yesterday so I popped to Waterstones to buy one 🍁 I've started my day by reading a few pages with a cosy cup of tea. It's perfect for Autumn mornings, and the cover is beautiful! 🍁 This issue is inspired by dreams, which is apt because I had a really odd one last night 😆 Have a good day everyone, and if you find yourself in a Waterstones (or other magazine-selling establishment) look out for this one 🍁 #bookstagram #magazine #ohcomely #magazines #waterstones #bookish #autumn #reading #currentlyreading #bookworm #booknerd #bookstagrammer #readersofinstagram #booklover #bookaddict #bibliophile

Hello bookish friends! It's been a while (unless you view my stories that is) but I thought I'd check in for two main reasons: it's libraries week and world mental health day! 🙌🏼📚 I popped into my local library today and brought this gem home with me. I've already flicked through and find myself relating to most of it 😅 I don't feel like an 'adult', I'm lucky if I feel like a person at all most of the time. I'm not always super open about mental health on here, but I have anxiety (and other things that I can't really make sense of) and am happy to say I've been okay recently. That's partly down to having a new job and being busy with freelance work too, and finding a good balance in life. I have time to rest, relax and be with myself. 😌 I still get overwhelmed by some things and can get behind on commitments (I have so many) but anyone who knows me knows that I'll do what I can when I can, and that's what matters. 😄Thank you to anyone who read all of this! If you have any graphic novel / comic recommendations for me that you think I'd like (or are mental health-related) then comment them below so others can see too. Enjoy the rest of your day everyone, and visit your local library! 📚 #book #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #booksofig #bethevans #graphicnovel #comic #ireallydidntthinkthisthrough #bookstagrammer #instabook #bookworm #booknerd #bibliophile #library #librariesweek #worldmentalhealthday #mentalhealth #booklove #librarybook #igreads #booklover #bookphotography #reading #reader

"While listlessly he sate, and having closed The Book, had turned his eyes towards the Sea." 🌊 I borrowed this book from a friend after telling him I was going to be by the sea on my holiday, and he said, 'You need to read this then'. 🌊 The line above is taken from The Prelude by Wordsworth, which is where Auden begins this book. It was the perfect poem to read before going down to the coast and watching the waves. 🌊 My actual holiday read ended up being Magpie Murders by Anthony Horowitz! Being cosy in bed in a caravan with the rain beating down on the roof was the perfect conditions for a murder mystery 🔎 Tell me about your last holiday, or what kind of books you like to read when you're away from home 📚🌊 #holiday #reading #whauden #auden #faberandfaber #theenchafedflood #theromanticiconographyoftgesea #skegness #ingoldmells #sea #beach #book #bookish #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookgram #instabook #igbooks #igreads #booknerd #booklover #booklove #bibliophile #bookworm #bookphotography #booksofinstagram

My bookish bestie @finallyimkath recently told me that if I was a book I would be this one. That's the first time anyone has described a book that way to me, so naturally I HAD to get this. I popped into @waterstonesng today armed with a full stamp card 🙌🏼📚 So all other books must now wait their turn, cause I'll be starting this one soon 💛 I also found Communion by Years & Years today so I'll be listening to nothing else for the next month at least. 🎶 Hope you've all had an amazing day! 💛 #book #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #booksofig #booksofinsta #igbook #conversationswithfriends #sallyrooney #waterstones #bookworm #bookish #booknerd #booknerdigans #bibliophile #instabook #igreads #bookshelf #yearsandyears #reading #currentlyreading #faberandfaber #booklove #booklover #bookphotography #bookaddict
