One of my all-time favorites! I reread this one at least once a year. 💕

I've heard this compared multiple times to Naomi Novik's Uprooted, but I'm not sure if the comparison holds up. This is a much quieter novel. I loved the folklore elements of the story, but I had trouble with the rest. I think I would probably have enjoyed it a lot more had the Uprooted comparison not been made.

I watched the Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell mini series last month and I'm absolutely obsessed, so I decided it was finally time to dive in to all 846 pages. I'm about 200 pages in and 😍😍

Jumping on the patronus train... mine is a nightjar. which is apparently a nocturnal bird that's pretty good a camouflaging with leaves. Not sure what it says about me, but ok. Anyone else have a nightjar patronus?

SamanthaFabris I got a badger. I'm such a Hufflepuff. 8y

One of the first cookbooks I ever bought, back when I first moved into my apartment in Jersey City. Some great, but not too difficult, recipes for all occasions. #booksthatmademehungry #septphotochallenge #somethingforsept @RealLifeReading

MrBook You're a Jersey girl? @BookBabe and I moved last year from North Bergen 😊👍🏻. 8y
tehkelsey Yep! I lived in Jersey City for the past two years, but recently moved to South Jersey for a job in Philly. 😀 8y

Some of my favorite women writers for today's #septphotochallenge #somethingforsept. there were so many more I could've included... but does anyone have any recommendations?

Thanks @RealLifeReading for the challenge!

Really excited that I'm finally able to try out Litsy for Android so I can show off all my favorite books... and those on my TBR, like N.K. Jemisin's The Obelisk Gate. I really loved the first book in the series, The Fifth Season, and can't wait to get started on this. ❤
