I was going to read something else, but The Travelling CAt Chronicles ended up in my hands instead. Rather cat-like of it. I'm about 75 pages in, and so far it is completely charming. It makes me wonder what my cat is thinking about me. . . . #thetravellingcatchronicles #hiroarikawa #japaneseauthors #japanesefiction #worksintranslation #books #booksaboutcats #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #instabook #currentreads
Happy Saint Patrick's Day! It's starting to look like Spring could be coming around here, and I am looking forward to it! Today's agenda involves sunny weather, a long walk, and a good book. . . . #books #wbyeats #irishfolkandfairytales #irishstories #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #booklove #instabook
For my birthday, I bought myself books, including The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon. I can't wait to read it! . . . #books #booknerd #prioryoftheorangetree #samanthashannon #bookswithdragons #bookstagrammer #bookstagram #instabook #booklove
I finally finished reading The Queens of Innis Lear by Tessa Gratton. It's an atmospheric and brooding King Lear pastiche that I thoroughly enjoyed, though I could have done without the flashbacks. There isn't very much action, and it is definitely character driven, not plot driven, so if you read for plot, this probably isn't for you. . . . #books #thequeensofinnislear #tessagratton #kinglearretelling #shakespeareretelling #queensofinnislear #bookstagram #instabook #shelfie
And overnight, I lose a bunch of followers, thanks to Instagram getting rid of bot accounts. I mean, good riddance to them, but why make an IG bot to begin with? . Anyway, I got this beautiful copy of The Picture of Dorian Gray for Christmas, and I am planning to reread it in the next couple of weeks. . . . #thepictureofdoriangray #oscarwilde #books #beautifulbooks #bookstagram #instabook #doriangray #tbr #toread
I started reading Ice by Anna Kavan today. It's a strange science fiction/dystopian novel about a man searching for an abused woman while trying to keep clear of totalitarian authorities as a climate catastrophe unfolds around them. It is strange and a little disturbing. I am about a third of the way through, so will withhold judgement until I am farther into it. Has anyone else read this? What did you think of it? . . . #annakavan #slipstreamfiction #sff #books #reading #amreading #instabook #bookstagram #britishauthors #sciencefiction
