🎬The Skeleton Key
🎶Skeletons by Of Monsters and Men
#manicmonday @JoScho
An absolute gem of #horror short stories, especially YA horror. My favorites were In the Forest Dark and Deep, a disturbing tale of the March Hare and tea parties; Hide and Seek, a story about a girl who has 24 hours to win a challenge against death; and The Girl Without a Face, a wonderful psychological terror. That one gave me all the creepy feelings 💀🔪

#nationalcoffeeday on a #lazysunday with less than 100 pages left in the tagged book. Switching to my kindle later 😊☕️
This book kept me company during my tattoo appointment. It was a decent read and mildly entertaining. I found the main character to be quite selfish and annoying. I get that she‘s a succubus, but her flighty behavior got old fast. The only thing that kept me going was the relationship between her and Seth. Not sure if I‘ll continue with the series though. 3/5 🌟
#paranormalromance
1. Meh, it‘s alright. This is the first year I set a reading goal for myself, but I‘m not stressing over it.
2. I have a plethora of board games. Day drinking and board games are always entertaining with a big group of people ???
3. So many genres! Rap/hip-hop, electronic, pop, rock, indie
4. January - fiancé and I will celebrate 10 years soon! ?
5. High five to my parents. They celebrated 34 years on the 21st! ?

My “Namaste in bed” pillow, book, and cider. Sounds like a great #thirstythursday to me 🍺📚My reclining chair is calling my name! It‘s almost Friday, y‘all! 🙌🏽
Perfect way to dive into the spooky season! 👌🏽💀👻🔪 An adult version of Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. Perfect for fans of Goosebumps and Are You Afraid of the Dark, or anyone looking for that horror nostalgia. The illustrations are wonderfully creepy. The last couple of short stories were my favorite 4/5 🌟
#horror #spookyread
1. I‘m still on a vacation high from New Orleans ?
2. Sunny: high 97F and low 77F
3. Hmm only bad one I can think of is when my fiancé and I went on a double date with my friend and her new fling to dinner and a concert. Other guy conveniently forgot his wallet at home and we ended up having to help pay for his half ? Needless to say it didn‘t work out for them ??♀️
4. One fur baby ??
5. Will do! ?
#friyayintro @howjessreads
The fiancé and I had a joint birthday celebration trip to New Orleans. Until a few weeks ago, we unknowingly booked our trip the same weekend his brother and sister-in-law booked theirs! A live podcast show, ghost tour, trip to Faulkner House Books, Bourbon St, Jackson Square, Cafe Du Monde, and multiple hurricanes later, we are so sad to leave this lively city. We‘ll be back soon!

#bookhaul from #halfpricebooks and Amazon. On my way to filling up last week‘s IKEA bookcase purchase. 📚😉
The fourth book in the BDB series. I thoroughly enjoyed Butch‘s story! He is so dang sweet! I found Marissa to be a bit prissy and unsupportive of Butch at times, but given her background I can understand why. Butch and Vishous have such a tight-knit friendship and I‘m so glad this book leads into V‘s story. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Getting ready to see The Try Guys live show tonight! I‘m ready for one heck of a hilarious performance! We‘re so stoked! #thetryguys
I love when I get the chance to work from home. Lunch time reading always helps the day go a bit smoother. Also, does anyone else get a little anxious when peeling a sticker off their books? 😅 #currentlyreading #blackdaggerbrotherhood

2. Puffy

Had to take advantage of the #halfpricebooks sale this past weekend. I‘ve been on a #Goosebumps and #blackdaggerbrotherhood buying binge lately. 👻💀🧛♂️📚 Starting the fourth BDB book tonight! Also very excited for The Kiss Quotient and Outlander! #bookhaul
This books was exactly what I needed to get me out of my reading slump! Andie has the perfect summer planned until her father‘s political scandal turns everything upside down. As a last-minute resort she takes on a dog-walking gig for the summer and is forced to spend time with her dad. I loved the dynamics within the friend group, how Andie and her dad break down their walls, and of course, what‘s a YA book without a romance! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
1. Started wedding planning (finally)! 👰🏻🤵🏼And after months of being in a reading slump I‘ve been able to read 300 pages this week! 😁
2. Don‘t really have a favorite, but we‘re going to New Orleans the first week of September!
3. Apple pie 🥧
4. Absolutely! My cousin is visiting on Saturday!
5. Will do! 👍🏽
