Here's my #topnine2018 📚Of the books pictured here I've only read 6 of them! It's been a fairly good reading year. I've discovered new authors, read Harry Potter for the first time, borrowed lots from the library, and finally got back into my fave pastime: reading on public transport. 📚 My TBR seems bigger and more daunting than ever, but that just means there's lots more out there to dive into. 📚 In other bookish news, I did a really old (like, 1984 old) choose your own adventure book this morning and I'm proud to announce that on my first go I did NOT die. 🙌🏼 Have a great start to 2019 everyone ✨🎉 #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #bookish #books #booknerd #bibliophile #booklover #igreads #reader #readersofinstagram #becauseofbooks #newyear
Merry Christmas bookish people 🎄 My mum bought me this beautiful book of poems which I'm super excited to read.

Today I am living for the beautiful rainbow edge of The Miseducation of Cameron Post 🏳️‍🌈 I picked this up yesterday from @waterstonesng alongside two other books (one for me, one for a friend) 📚Yes, when I do Christmas shopping I come away with more stuff for me 😆 I think I'll be reading this one soon, once I've stopped admiring it 🌈 #book #bookstagram #themiseducationofcameronpost #emilymdanforth #penguinbooks #penguinstagram #bookish #booknerd #booklover #bibliophile #bookgram #booksofinstagram #igreads #instabook #lgbt #bookworm #bookphotography
Just a selection of the things I bought at @punnydukes yesterday ✨ accompanied here by my ginger baby, Pudsey. The shop is so full of amazing goodies, I could have bought so many more things! If you ever find yourself in Matlock, you HAVE to go there. Picked up some gifts for friends too.✨ #cat #bookish #bookstagram #punnydukes #harrypotter #booknerd #matlock #catstagram #bookworm #bibliophile #bookstagrammer
