I keep telling myself I need to read the Icelandic sagas I've collected, but now that the Sagalong hosted by BookTubers Elena Makridina, Crystal at BiblioAtlas, @stevesbookstagram, and others is starting on the 28th, there is a schedule to follow and discussions to keep up with, so I won't have a reason not to dive into these stories. And I might as well reread Neil Gaiman's Norse Mythology while I'm at it. . . . #sagalong #sagas #sagasoftheicelanders #norsemythology #neilgaiman #norsemyths #books #icelandicliterature #icelandicbooks #njalssaga #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #instabook
The big snowstorm missed us and left ice and cold behind. But hey, I got to go home an hour early last night anyway! . The Curse of Chalion by Lois McMaster Bujold is one of my favorite books of all time, but it feels like hardly anyone else has read it, it even heard of it. . . . #loismcmasterbujold #books #booklove #bookstagram #favorites #favoritebooks #fantasynovel #booknerd #instabook #thecurseofchalion
I loved Mercedes Lackey's Valdemar books when I was in high school and college, but it's been awhile since I picked any of them up. Throughout 2019, I am participating in the #ReadingValdemar project with Jackie @deathbytsundoku and Melanie at Grab the Lapels to read 15 Valdemar books, and see how they hold up. So far, they are as fun as I remember them being! . . . #books #reading #2019goals #2019readingplan #mercedeslackey #valdemar #heraldsofvaldemar #companions #arrowsflight #arrowsfall #heraldsofvaldemar #tbr #fantasynovel #booklove
I got Rena Rossner's book, The Sisters of the Winter Wood for Christmas, and I am so looking forward to reading it. It's told half in prose and half in verse, and the first twenty pages were beautiful. I'm putting it on my February TBR. . . . #sistersofthewinterwood #renarossner #books #booklove #booknerd #tbr #toread #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #instabook
We had our first snow of the year yesterday. It made everything look beautiful, but now the sun has come out and everything is starting to melt. Beauty is fleeting! . . I picked The Queens of Innis Lear as the big book I want to read this month among all the shorter books on my TBR. I've read the first couple of chapters, and it's amazing so far. . . . #thequeensofinnislear #shakespeareretelling #tessagratton #tbr #books #booklove #bookstagrammer #bookstagram #booknerd
It's my day off, and I have already gotten so much done, and will get so much more done before I head to dinner with friends. Hooray for days off! . I was tagged by @somethingofthebook for the #sevenbookishsins tag! Greed (a book you won't lend out): My 1940s edition of Pride and Prejudice Gluttony (a book you devoured): Shadow of the Fox by Julie Kagawa. Yumeko is so sweet and funny! Lust (a book box set): The Lord of the Rings Sloth (a book that's unread): I have about 100 unread books, but to pick one at random... We, The Drowned by Carsten Jensen Wrath (a disappointing book): Everything I have read or attempted to read by Sarah J Maas or Cassandra Clare Pride (a pretty book): The Queens of Innis Lear by Tessa Gratton. The whole book is so beautifully put together. Envy (a book world you want to live in): Rivendell . . . #books #armistice #laraelenadonnelly #bookworms #booktags #bookish #bookishtags #coolcolors
