I cannot get over this copy of #TheRavenBoys 😍 I found a woman on ETSY who re-binds paperbacks into hardbacks. She had completed the ToG series and the ACOTAR series for me and she was willing to start #TheRavenCycle series and even add a quote of my choosing from each book. This is just the first one, but I can‘t wait for the rest!

I know it is a tough time for so many right now, but very dear friends of @Laalaleighh recently suffered extreme tragedy and they could really use help if you are able. Even if it is just $5, it can honestly go such a long way there. Thank you so much ❤️

#BookHaul day with the BFF was a huge success. McKay‘s, Wall of Books, and Books-A-Million, plus some antique stores. Then ended at The Cheddar‘s. Thanks to My Husband for making this happen and thank you, @Lose.Yourself.In.A.Book for a fantastic day! Loved our shirts ❤️

My Husband cleaned the house while he let me go to McKays by myself to have another #BookHaul He knows the way to my heart ❤️ The far right stack is full of books for friends/family that are collecting them, but the left two are for me and for the Girls‘ collections! On the way back, stopped and got some goodies for Him and the Girls. Now he is having a night out by himself browsing gadgets. Then movies when he gets home. Great Valentine‘s Day 😍

#BookHaul today! I mean, all of these hardbacks for less than $10 total ❤️📚 We visited two libraries, an antique marketplace, and goodwill to find these and the mug and one of the classics were both gifts from my bookhaul hunting companion today @QuothTheRavenclawNevermore ! Thank you for the company and the book love ❤️

Winter Hayes as Alice in Wonderland for her 2 year photos! We waited a week so Grandpa could be here for them ❤️

Omg, and the necklace! @Laalaleighh I accidentally left it in the box, but look at it 😍

Words cannot describe how excited I am for this new trilogy! I pre-ordered this book as soon as she announced it, and when OwlCrate offered a special pre-order box featuring a signed copy, I was very lucky to snag one a couple months back. The pillowcases are beautiful, the candle smells amazing, hat and socks are perfect for cold weather reading, and I love the pin and keychain. This book, though, just makes my heart so happy and a day early! ❤️

Kaysen Emory turns 4 this weekend. For her 4 year photos she is Jo from #LittleWomen and I love how so many of the pictures turned out, but these three were some of my faves. She can pick out A-E by looking at them and we are slowly learning the rest and their sounds as well. ❤️ she is a big helper around the house and she is excited for her Toy Story party.

It‘s that time again! #NashvilleLitsyMeetUp on Saturday September 14th at Noon. Meeting at Landmark Booksellers in Franklin, TN. There is a free parking garage on 2nd Ave right by there. After browsing and mingling, we will walk over to a lunch place nearby that will be decided that day, and we will do a mystery book exchange. If you are in the area and interested let us know! There may even be a coffee shop stop.

Look at these dust jackets! Megmakesthings.com was recommended by @MaggieStiefvater herself and omg they are gorgeous 😍 they fit perfectly and with all of them wrapped over the original dust jackets (which are also gorgeous) they all still fit inside the box Maggie designed for the hardback set. I am in love with these ❤️

Be it blogger or just human in general, she is one of my absolute favourites! You should definitely read this article by @LornaDH

#NashvilleLitsyMeetUp part 2, my BFF came up just to stay with me so she could go to this meetup and she brought some books (stacked) and while we were at the meet up she bought me dinosaur magnets ❤️ And of course our Librarian, Ann, brought all the ARCs for us to pick and choose some books. Britt even brought some bookish pins! Thank you, Everyone, for the delicious food and excellent company! Fun as always 😘

#NashvilleLitsyMeetUp part 1, we had a fun day with a picnic in the shade where we all brought blankets, food, and drinks to snack on and we discussed books and life and it was wonderful catching up with these Ladies! Then we walked over to the Art Festival and had some food truck food (🙌) before walking around to see the arts and crafts. Then we ended at B&N across the street. I absolutely loved it and can‘t wait for next time 😊

I was SO excited when @MeganAnn said she would be in Tennessee, and even though we were only able to meet up for a couple of hours it was so amazing to finally meet her in person! #LGPOG is such an amazing group of Women, and she proved that with her incredible kindness and she has the sweetest family! She even spoiled me with some books on my TBR ❤️ Thank you, again, for everything and I hope you three have the BEST vacation 😘 Until next time!

Friendly reminder that two weeks from today is the next #NashvilleLitsyMeetUp we will be meeting at Centennial Park (park there or at B&N garage which charges) at 11:00. We plan on going through the art show that will be there, visiting the Parthenon which costs $6.5 plus fee if no cash, and there will also be food trucks! We are all bringing a little something for everyone for a potluck makeshift picnic as well. End at B&N 🙌 June 15th!

These are so beautiful 😍 I really hope they sell them separately again so I can have them on my books and on my walls 🙌 Great job again, @TheBookishBox

Omg! Look at the #ThroneOfGlass part one box!!! I am missing a bookmark, I think, but honestly these are all so beautiful I wouldn‘t have even known if it wasn‘t listed lol Fireheart necklace, Dorian Keychain, a new animal clip which is adorable, the candle is high quality and smells so good, the enamel pin is so gorgeous, the art print is perfect, and that blanket is absolutely everything. Dust jackets in next post 😍

I am obsessed with this alternate dust jacket from The Bookish Box 😍 the nesting dolls down the spine and the absolutely stunning artwork for the front and back... love ❤️

I wanted to post this about Owlcrate‘s June box, the entire theme is Fictional Libraries and I am super excited that we are getting bookends! This may be the month for some of you to try! And then you can easily cancel if it is still not for you, but definitely try this one ❤️ https://www.owlcrate.com/refer/Caled-EEZCUOMD

I am LOVING the new #BOTM tote! The inside has a pocket that zips and the outer pocket has a magnet to help keep it closed when not occupied by a book (which a hardback fits perfectly into), and it is very sturdy ❤️ Love that they have the new loyalty program. Free books are always great 🙌 Especially with choices like these 📚

Now part three, I put some book fabric behind the glass in the frame to have my Bookish stickers, and I also wrapped Library due date fabric around a wooden square and added some hooks to be able to display my Bookish keychains. I want to do something similar to a cork board and be able to display my Bookish jewelry, but that will be later. And the last of my frames came in for some SJMaas art. Now that corner is all about her books ❤️ #MyLibrary

And this is the Prythian map that was sent with #ACOWAR about two years ago. I just now bought a frame. Very sad, but it looks great so close to the dust jackets.

Part two of finding a place for everything in my Library, the beautiful dust jackets from #ACOTAR box (previous post) and now I have about 1/4 of my art prints up and framed. I also found a floating picture frame for the Prythian map. Tomorrow the rest of the bookish fabric and the last of the picture frames arrive.

I have had an idea for a while on what I want to do with all of my art prints, stickers, magnets, and keychains. I finally kicked my butt into gear, and started with my magnets! A sturdy, but cheap 12x12 frame ($5), a galvanized 12x12 sheet of metal ($5), and a yard of bookish fabric which is enough for 4 ($10). And you don‘t even need to be able to sew, just fold over excess and use fabric adhesive to keep it tight. Now they are on display ❤️

Thank you so very much @PatriciaU !!! I was so surprised with all of the goodies! I was expecting a few books, and these are absolutely amazing and the Celtic Tales Book is gorgeous 😍 Kaysen LOVES her Olaf book. She has barely let it go 😊 And of course the WonderWoman shirt is amazing. Thank you for your kindness, we truly appreciate it very much! ❤️

#BookMail #BookishMail and I LOVE my Velocireader shirt from @outofprint 😍 Chelsea Handler‘s new book, and my #EastonPress book from #OneHundredGreatestBooksEverWritten ❤️ Aesop‘s Fables.

Took the Girls to see the Easter Bunny today! We had a blast doing lots of family time ❤️ Also, some #BookMail 🙌 My #BOTM came in with the top two, I got the lower left recommended by @Laalaleighh , and the lower right is a used copy I found online for $5. I will never be able to finish my TBR.

#ACOTAR Box post 2, front and back of the customer dust jacket designs! They are stunning!!! ❤️

#ACOTAR Box picture 1, because those dust jackets need their own post! The next post will show front and back of all three, but this has the inside flap quote as well! Look at those beauties 😍 #BookSleeve is on point with artistic design even if I do not like the material itself, shirt is awesome, candle smells amazing, pin is already added to my collection, and necklace is in the jewelry box. It‘s obviously the jackets the have my heart ❤️

#BookMail ❤️❤️❤️ I decided to cave for ADoW since it will now be on AMC, I should probably read before I watch, but I am the most excited for #IMOMSOHARD because I love them and I cannot WAIT to read it. I have a signed copy coming, but I am so glad this delivered today!

June 15th is the next #NashvilleLitsyMeetUp we will be meeting at Centennial Park (park there or at B&N garage across the street, garage charges) at 11:00. We plan on going through the art show that will be there, visiting the Parthenon which costs $6.5 plus fee if no cash, but cash is probably best since there will also be food trucks! We are all bringing a little something for everyone for a potluck makeshift picnic as well. We will end at B&N.

Dirt Cheap, Taco Bell, Books-A-Million, Starbucks, and home for dinner. A great visit with my BFF and her two tiny humans ❤️ Also, great #BookHaul 🙌 Most is these were on clearance and two are signed!

Closet and guest bedroom have all of my leatherbound ones, and the Biographies, memoirs, and true crime 😊

From the four corners of my library. I finally put up the new bookcase I got like 2 months ago. I actually have space on my shelves again! But, my library had to grow and now extends to the hallway closet and guest bedroom which will be in my next post. And yes, those are all my Bookish pillowcases and blankets to the lower right. I have a lot 😅 It makes for a great floor reading position, though
