I haven't read nearly as much as I intended to this month, and I'm blaming the shortness of February. So here's my second lot of #bookishjadewrapups featuring Pusheen ✨ I raced through all these books, and then hit a standstill. Not pictured is a poetry book I've since returned to the library 📚 • Occasional Wild Parties, Modern Poets Series 3/5 ⭐️ •Aunts Aren't Gentlemen, P. G. Wodehouse 4/5 ⭐️ • Let's Pretend This Never Happened, Jenny Lawson 5/5 ⭐️ • Furiously Happy, Jenny Lawson 5/5 ⭐️ • The Moon is Down, John Steinbeck 4/5 ⭐️ 📚 If I've learnt anything, it's that we should all read Jenny Lawson. I've also replaced books with podcasts recently 🎧 I can feel a non-fiction spree coming on. #books #bookstack #bookshelf #februarywrapup #reader #reading #readersofinstagram #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookish #booknerd #bibliophile #booklover #bookworm
I took this photo of part of my bookshelves the other day, and thought I'd share it 📚 There are some favourites here 🙌🏼🤓 The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe was one of the first 'proper' books I remember reading cover to cover 📖 #books #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #bookshelf #shelfie #booknerd #bookish #booklover #bookworm #bibliophile #reader #readersofinstagram #igreads #instabook #bookphotography
I've decided that this year I'm going to do one of those wrap up tags to keep track of all the books I read each month 📚 So here's the first #bookishjadewrapups for the books I read in January! Five of these are library books, and yes, I did renew them a million times so I could keep them for this photo. 📚 My reading goal was to get through my library books, and I achieved it. My February goal will be to read books that my friends have let me borrow 📚 Below are my ratings, in the order I read them: • The Best Slam/Stand-Up/Performance/Spoken Word Poetry Book in the World, ed. by Jenn Hart & Clive Birnie 4/5 ⭐️ • The Miseducation of Cameron Post, Emily M. Danforth 5/5 ⭐️ • The Complete Maus, Art Spiegelman 5/5 ⭐️ • Batman: Arkham Asylum, Grant Morrison & Dave McKean 3/5 ⭐️ • Roar!, Martin Hayes 4/5 ⭐️ • Attrib. And Other Stories, Eley Williams 4/5 ⭐️ • First, We Make the Beast Beautiful, Sarah Wilson 5/5 ⭐️ 📚 Here's to another month of bookishness! #book #books #bookstack #bookshelf #januarywrapup #reader #reading #readersofinstagram #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #bookstagrammer #librarybooks #booknerd #bibliophile #booklover
THIS BOOK. On the back, Mark Manson says that it's 'the best book on living with anxiety that [he's] ever read.' And I have to agree 100%. 🐙 I just want to hug this book and say thank you to it for existing, because it's given me so much. Sarah Wilson went on her own journey writing this book and feel like I've been on one from reading it. I'll have to return it to the library, but I'll find a copy of my own and label all the amazing bits inside (there are many!) 🐙 #book #bookstagram #bookreview #firstwemakethebeastbeautiful #sarahwilson #anxiety #mentalhealth #nonfiction #bookish #booklover #booknerd #bibliophile #booksofinstagram #igreads #bookgram #bookstagrammer
