It seems that both of my cats like to sit on my books. The stray kitten I found last week is doing well, thanks to the veterinarian's medical help and advice from a woman who fosters kittens for a local animal rescue company. My older cat is getting along with her as well as could be expected, given his normal grouchy demeanor. I am thinking of naming the kitten Mina, after Mina Harker from Bram Stoker's Dracula. . . . #kitten #catsofinstagram #dune #bookstagram #blackcat #literarynamesake #literarycats
I enjoyed the first book in Rebecca Roanhorse's Sixth World series, Trail of Lightning, but the second book, Storm of Locusts, is even better! Maybe it's because I'm more familiar with the world this time around. I am looking forward to the next one! . . . #books #bookish #thesixthworld #stormoflocusts #rebeccaroanhorse #urbanfantasy #fantasynovel #bookstagram #booknerd #booklove #instabook
This year I've been rereading a bunch of Mercedes Lackey's Valdemar books for #ReadingValdemar with a couple of blogger friends. I had forgotten how enjoyable these books are, in spite of their many flaws. They're about good people doing their best to do good things, and with all the grimdark fantasies out there, the Mage Storm trilogy is a comfort read, like eating caramel popcorn. Not the best thing out there, but it's still fun. . . . #valdemar #amreading #mercedeslackey #stormwarning #fantasynovel #instabook #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #favoritebooks #magichorses
Part of my July TBR. Not pictured: the three ebooks I plan to read, which include an ARC of Silvia Moreno-Garcia's upcoming book, Gods of Jade and Shadow. . . . #bookstack #tbr #toread #books #booklove #instabook #bookstagram #reading #ReadingValdemar
I wasn't very interested in The Hazel Wood by Melissa Albert when it first came out, but I couldn't pass up this nearly pristine hardcover when I saw it for $1 on my library's sale shelf. The cover is beautiful, and the texture of its paper is like velvet. I just want to touch it... . Have you read The Hazel Wood? What did you think of it? . . . #books #thehazelwood #melissaalbert #beautifulbook #coverart #bookcover #instabook #booklove #bookstagram #booknerd
This morning I woke up to a blast of thunder so loud it rattled the walls and set off car alarms around the neighborhood. Now it's just raining. Perfect reading weather! . . Istanbul: Memories and the City by Orhan Pamuk is one of my current reads. So far, I am enjoying this blend of memoir and history book. . . . #bookstagram #books #amreading #orhanpamuk #memoir #stormymorning #reading #booklove #bookstagrammer #instabook
