📝Can you spot the baby toy / book on my shelf?☺️😍 📚 Happy #sundayshelfie!!! I am embracing my messy shelf at the moment... it is double shelving, very unorganised (you probably can’t tell from this pic...), have Christmas card displayed on one of the shelf units and baby toy on the other 🙈 I just don’t have the energy now to reorganise it even though I want to so badly😂 it will have to wait! 📚 I finished my current read The Day We Met last night and 😭😭😭. Review will be posted closer to the publication day next year. I am going to start my next read tonight, sooo excited!!💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻 📚 Stay turned for updates! 📚 #shelfiesunday #bookshelves #blackbookshelf #ikeabillybookcase #billybookcase #bookhoarder #booksofig #readersofig
📝What is the most epic romance you have ever read? 📚 Don’t need any more caption or explanation, The Bronze Horseman series by @paullinasimons is the most epic historical romance I have ever and will ever read. These three books are my favourite books of ALL TIME. Set in WWII Russia and America and spans 60 years to present time, Alexander Barrington and Tatiana Metonova’s love story will stay with me forever and ever. Please enjoy a small extract from book1 The Bronze Horseman below. 📚 “Soldier! Let me cradle your head and caress your face, let me kiss your dear sweet lips and cry across the seas and whisper through the icy Russian grass how I feel for you… Luga, Ladoga, Leningrad, Lazarevo… Alexander, once you carried me, and now I carry you. Into my eternity, now I carry you. Through Finland, through Sweden, to America, hand outstretched, I stand and limp forward, the galloping steed black and riderless in my wake. Your heart, your rifle, they will comfort me, they’ll be my cradle and my grave. Lazarevo drips you into my soul, dawn drop by moonlight drop from the river Kama. When you look for me, look for me there, because that’s where I will be all the days of my life.” 📚 #thebronzehorseman #tatianaandalexander #thesummergarden #wwiiromance #historicalromance #beautifulbooks #bookaccount #epicromance #bookcollector
📝Out of 7 days a week, how often do you stay up late to read past 1am in the morning? 📚 When I was younger (*cough cough*) I used to stay up late every single day past 1am to read and I could still function the next day. That’s why I was able to read so many books a month, like 11-15 books... in the last couple of years, as I am getting older 🙈, I found myself couldn’t stay up past 11pm😂 I was so sleepy after work that I normally got in bed at 10:30 to sleep😂 Well, I do love it as I feel generally healthy when I go to bed early! 📚 How about you? Do you still stay up late or very very late to read? 📚 #stayuplatetoread #somanybookssolittletime #booknerdingans #bookobsessed #coffeemademedoit #bookshelves #blackbookshelf
📝Are you a dramatic book lover or you are a more subtle and “keep it to yourself” kind of book lover? 📚 You must be wondering what I mean by this?😂 Well, I am a VERY dramatic and passionate booklover; this means that when I love a book, I will not stop talking about it, posting about it, mentioning it and recommending it (like The Bronze Horseman series). I love to use lots of “!!!!!!” and terms like “OMG!!” to express my love for a book. I write review straight away after finishing a book so the thoughts I have are the most straight forward and the rawest feelings I have. Some people may think it is too much, but I love it. I love being over the top and dramatic as if I love a book, I want the whole world to know about it ❤️😂 #booklovers #dramaticbooklovers #bookshelves #blackbookshelf #booknerds #lovereading #bookaccount
📝Do you love to buddy read with your friends? 📚 I LOVE IT! It is amazing to share the reading journey with your friends and share your thoughts as you go along. You can scream together, shout together, cry together and swoon together! It is one of those experiences that I will always cherish forever!❤️ 📚 I am going to buddy read The Winter of The Witch, third book in The Winternight Trilogy with the queen of blogging and of course my dearest friend Mel @meltotheany starting next Monday😭❤️ I cannot wait!!💃🏻💃🏻 📚 If you love Russia, history, folklore, winter, magic and a bit of romance, AND incredible story telling and writing, you have to check out this trilogy. Book 3 is coming out next month so not long for you to wait!❄️❄️❄️ This is one of my favourite series of all time! 📚 #thewinterofthewitch #thebearandthenightingale #thegirlinthetower #russiafolklore #folklores #prettybooks #beautifulbooks #buddyread
📝Do you DNF a book or you will power through even though you are not feeling the book you are reading? 📚 I have only DNFed one book... and it was a VERY controversial one... it was A Court of Wings and Ruin, the third book of A Court of Throne and Roses series....🙈🙈🙈 If you have been following me for a while, you would know the reason why I DNFed it. I have issues with how SJM thrown Tamlin under the bus and also have issues with some of the character developments and plot twists...BUT! I still love the world SJM built and I would love to continue to finish it and give it another chance❤️👏🏼 📚 #dnf #lovereading #booknerds #bookcollector #blackbookshelf #bookshelves
