You do not know how excited I am to start this very thin book..... I may be one of the few people in my generation who is adamant that my children and their children and their children and so on will all learn the magic of handwriting
pickI have no words except for "When the hell does book 3 come out??!!??" Absolutely loved the continuum of Dinah's story and seeing that classic Queen Of Hearts rage slowly build inside her. Great twists and gut-wrenching moments throughout. Chessie and I really need the rest!
Got my book mail today and am getting no sleep tonight until this is finished... thank goodness for a crazy snow/ freezing rain storm outside and the possibility of a snow day tomorrow from work and for hot water in a "sippy" mug to warm my soul!
Gotta love working in a library and seeing the most random books come in..... I'm one of those people who is deathly afraid of clowns yet adores Harley & Joker.... going to learn how to protect myself from the other ones while indulging on my cherry soda from the best 50s diner in the Lower Mainland ! #clowns #50sgirl #cherrysoda #fortlangley
When you go to see a musical and the first priority is to find a book.... I love going down to the states to buy my ya novels as even with exchange it works out a little bit cheaper than the Canadian prices plus taxes
So excited that #Riverdale has finally started!!!! Watched it and absolutely love it! Can't wait for the episode that I got to be part of filming for... watch for me and my lovely purple Honda Fit at the drive in during episode four The Last Picture Show
Ummmm addicted!!!! I want to dive into this world forever please... doesn't help that I'm listening to Paris by the Chainsmokers at the same time
This is literally one of my favourite books of all time and I am soooo excited for another carnival themed book that is coming with next months #owlcrate!!! They also promise a Night Circus themed item which is making me over the moon. I will always love magic and carnivals even though I am deathly afraid of clowns and dolls.
Best way to spend a day off... watching figure skating (I miss it so much) while drawing, planning, writing, and waiting for the FedEx truck/ Canada Post to deliver my #bookishbox and #bookdepository orders :) I love that they are showing #StarsOnIce before finally showing #CanadianNationals
Bored at work so what does one do? Draw ruins on themselves! Absolutely addicted to the Mortal Instruments series/ companion series and am in love with Katherine McNamara who plays Clary on the tv show!!!! She can call me anytime to hang out ;)
When you read a book that mentions a city in your area and they totally say it wrong but you know the way it is said is so people might know where it is....
pickAbsolutely loved the characters and their free flowing sarcasm.... at first I was hesitant on a novel based in 1919 that had known "magic" mixed into reality but it really did work quite well... now I don't know what gangsters ever did with out hemopaths! It has earned its spot on my 1920s shelf next to Audrey and Hemingway
My other fave shelf because I can't get enough of fairy tale retellings especially if it is Wonderland themed....however most of my Dorothy Must Die collection is currently with my cousin and Heartless is beside my bed as I still get over my love for it
Perhaps one of my fave shelves on my newly decorated book case.... I absolutely love 1920s YA fic!!!!
It's been quite awhile since I last posted as I had no room on my phone for any apps with all my music.... new phone with lots more space means that I'm back!!! And of course I went shopping at a book sale for school libraries so here is my haul with series that I'm starting and series that I couldn't help but continue!
Found the creepiest book I have ever seen and it's a children's book.... Why would someone do this to a small child?!?! #creepykidsbooks #deadlyclowns
Re binge watching American Horror Story and Simba seems enthralled when I don't have it paused.... Can I count this as weird books? #somethingforsept
I'm seeing a small trend in my non-fiction library haul..... #nonfictionlove #somethingforsept #ballet #humanheart #artificalintelligence #humanrights
My long time fave classics will always be the original Oz stories.... But I can't deny my absolute love for Dorian Gray.... If I did that it would be an absolute injustice to my soul. This is only one of my three copies of this novel, but it is my favourite copy
I can't believe I'm saying this but I'm watching the first movie for the second time because my Facebook feed (the one day I check it!) was blown up with the teaser trailer for the second.... Why do I do this to myself?!??
A special sneak peak into the back room of a small library :) aka the totally bare holds shelf due to a van pick up today #loveoflibraries #somethingforsept
Curled up reading as I pop my new library cd acquires on the first of two computers. Dang Apple for not having cd drives in their newer computers!!!!! #broadwayaddict #lazysundaynite
How to study for school? Curl up at the beach with snacks and a pleasure book for when you want to procrastinate 🤓😋 #studysunday #crescentbeach #soakupsunforonce
I had thought it would be difficult to find blue books in my collection.... I was completely and utterly wrong! #shadesofblue #somethingforsept
When you live in Canada so you do an evening trip down to the USA just to stop at Barnes & Nobles for their limited edition vinyl for Wicked!!!! Then find out they have free promotional photos for Miss Peregrine!!!!!!
After a long day at staff development where I learned nothing that I needed to learn.... I need a good humour book (couldn't focus on anything else after three glasses of wine anyways) so hopefully this one does the trick! #humourneeds #sleepinggiantwine #bcwine
Bored as heck at staff day.... So I'm playing with play-doh and reading my Amber Tamblyn poetry while doodling in my new decomposition book from #owlcrate :)
Because I'm at a work conference all day.... Aka checking Litsy because I'm bored listening to random people tell me what kind of librarian I should be.... I don't have time to find my copy of my fave book turned movie to do the photo so here is my fave cover version from the Internet! #bookturnedmovie #somethingforsept
Here is my #uglycover photo.... I don't think an explanation is necessary other than the fact that my grandfather gave me this book because he thought I might like the content #somethingforsept
My collection is finally complete!!! I can die happy until Amber puts out another collection in a few years *fingers crossed* she is my favourite poet (not a surprise)
The song makes me cry when I hear it and the book did an even worse job.... I'd love to see more artists take their songs and put them into novel format so we can get an even more fleshed out story out of it. #somethingforsept #mademecry
The moment you walk into Chapters Indigo and the store manager sees you, knows you by name and this is the greeting "you're walking with purpose.... Let me guess, Hollow City? I have a copy right here waiting for you. Go rest your foot."
pickJust finished and am now begging to go to back to Chapters Indigo for Hollow City.
Curled up watching The Great Fire as I read and drink an iced Cotton Candy tea latte and nibble on the only chocolate I can eat. Love lazy Tuesdays! #somethingforsept #booksanddrinks #davidstea #minieggs
My first Facebook post in a long time and it's about books! With a Beauty and The Beast picture :D (FYI really excited for when I finally get this book that I used as the blurb book from work!!!!!)
I can't believe that I'm this late to the Peregrine bandwagon.... I will admit that it's Eva Green who is making me want to read the book so I can see her in the movie.
pickI can not wait for the sequel to this.... The world scares the heck out of me as im not a huge fan of technology (Litsy is my only app that I really use other than my music and texts). So interesting!
pickI absolutely loved this book! Tons of amazing book quotes.... Tons of laughs (especially from the narrators).... And a perfect blend of animals and magic.... I want to be an Edian!!!! My apologies for the mass posts.... Litsy wasn't working for me all day and now I need to catch up since I'm almost done my next book!

Bah! I agree on a country being bankrupt by book purchases if I ran it!
This will definitely be happening at my wedding..... Especially for the party afterwards as I hide under a table reading.

Way too many good book quotes in this book!!!! "We'd fight so much less if everyone would just sit down and read."

Because I don't have a full time job yet (still a student and will be for a few more years) I'm doing my #workplacebooks as my future career(s).... Archivist, Museum Director, Exhibit Designer, PR/ Journalist. Crazy world coming up but never will a learning opportunity be missed in it :) #somethingforsept
Gotta love living right by an ocean :) if anyone finds themselves in White Rock, BC the best fish and chips are found at Jan's On The Beach :) always made by Jan herself! #oceanliving
