Thank you @BookmarkTavern for creating this fun play-card.

The Old Kingdom Series by Garth Nix. Love his writing style 🪄✍️📚💝.

Also, while my interests would have one day led me to discover necromancy (I love reading about anything magical and ghostly)...it was in this series by Garth Nix that I first encountered this form of magic 🪄👻💝 in fantasy.

Thank you @debinhawaii for creating this fun play-card and thanks @Deblovestoread for tagging me.

1- Wonderful that U.S.A. was one of the countries involved in the Historic prisoner swap 😢🙏🥲.

2- Caught an episode of Captain Planet this week. Haven't seen this show since elementary age. The foundation of the show's storyline always stayed with me, yet the episode was like brand new. 💍🌎💍🌏💍🌍💍🎬💍. Hopefully I can catch more episodes🤞. 👇

AnnCrystal 3- Learned last night that CBS will premiere the new Matlock with Kathy Bates on Sunday, September. 22, 24. Been waiting for that show!

4- Saw a wild cat today, who watched me with these beautiful gem like eyes and a “trickster's“ glee. Wacky me recalled Mogget from the Old Kingdom books by Garth Nix.

5- Discovered a new song today and fell in love with the lyrics, “I believe in music“ sung by B.J. Thomas written by Mac Davis.

More bookish mail today: I found this tee-shirt depicting the Abhorsen's bells on Etsy. This is my second favorite series (after #HarryPotter ) and I never see anything except fan art online , so I couldn't resist buying this. The art work is gorgeous.

Pickpick

The Abhorsen trilogy is, hands down, one of my favorites. I can re-read it time and time again, and it feels like the first time. Garth Nix weaves such complexity into every character, setting, and plot. I recommend these books to everyone, regardless of which genre they prefer to read! Pick x 1000.
*Clariel and Goldenhand, pictured, are extensions of the original trilogy*

Yossarian I had my eye on this when I was planning to read all the books in the world in alphabetical order. 9y
Broke_Girl_Reads @Skiles I second that swoon. I first listened to these more than 10 years ago, and I still hear Tim Curry in my head every time I read them 9y
stargazerblue49 Another series I've been meaning to read forever!!! If Tim Curry is the reader for the audiobook, I may have just been sold on going about it that way instead! 😍 9y
TirzahPrice I'm reading these right now for the first time since I was a kid and they stand up really well to an adult re-read! I love the world building! Enjoy! 9y

Bookies They're amazing. The author Susan Dennard and I discussed these when I did a book event with her at the library. We both agreed that Sabriel is great, but Lirael is even better! 9y
Bookies @krysannethemums was going to say this. When I read the books now I still hear his four in my head. A perfect Mogget 9y
bookwrm526 I love these books so much, and I agree about the audiobooks. They could not have found a better narrator! 9y
Kimberly Can't wait for your opinion- I remember reading Sabriel on repeat for months in middle school but I'm scared to re-read as an adult! 9y
Amanda YAAASSSS 9y
Liberty @Yossarian That's ambitious. Which also starts with 'A'. 😄 9y
