Do you have a fave morally grey character?

I love Kaz from Six of Crows, and all the dregs. Jude, Cardan and Victor Vale get special mentions too.

This is an unboxing from the recent @moonlightcrate #sixofcrows merch box - swipe to see the stunning dust jacket art, pin and lovely mug. The only thing missing is the T-shirt because I put it on practically straight away!

What’s a series you want to finish before the end of the year? I’d like to read Godsgrave & Dawkdawn before the year is up!

Blood Walk is a clay face mask by @madamealchemie and is a bloody good treat for your face. (Pretty sure there’s no gore, just face goodness - it smells divine). I got my order of the new products today and have bathed with a shadow king tonight 👌🏼#madamealchemiemonday

QOTD: Do you enjoy dystopian fiction?

Unpaid Ad / Cover Reveal for @leahcopelandwrites book “What Runs Through Her Veins” is an upcoming 2021 ya dystopian book and sounds sooooo good. I can not wait to read it. I’ve loved watching Leahs reels and writing process so please do consider giving her a follow to find out more about this book and read the blurb below

Blurb:
One secret. One cure. Time’s ticking…
In a society struggling to preserve humanity after a world war, seventeen-year-old Ember Lewis is betrayed and forced to reveal a long-held secret despite knowing it threatens the lives of her family.

Then when her father falls ill to the gene mutation that is ending human life earlier than the previous generations, Ember must make a difficult choice.

Defying the rules enforced by her government, Ember escapes her community in the search for a cure to save her father before it’s too late.
But her desperate search is further complicated when a mysterious stranger blackmails her into working together.

With obstacles more deadly than she ever imagined standing in her way, Ember must summon the courage to trust a stranger, reconcile her haunted past and stay alive to save those she loves most.

I loved these two books. Poppy is now right up there with a favourite female lead. It’s so good. I don’t want to give any spoilers up but if you need to talk about it then I will take about it all day long.

Have you had a good day? I have a cold and I’m feeling sorry for myself so an early night is needed! It goes without saying that Feyre is one of my favourite characters from a favourite series and red is my favourite colour!

Do you collect any art prints? How do you store them?

Crescent City House of Earth and Blood intimidated me at first but after the time jump I rushed through this to the end and really loved it. The cushion is inspired by the book and I love the art print.

I’ve recently got a scrap book with the intention of sticking in my prints with a mini review of the book.

Rep Post / unpaid

Where is your favourite place to read?
For me it’s curled up on the sofa with a hot cup of something, a candle burning, some peace and quiet and a cosy blanket.

I couldn’t wait for my copy of Blood & Honey because I needed to know so I got an ebook copy whilst I wait for my two book boxes to arrive...

My full review and notes are on good reads but do contain spoilers
So for a spoiler free review - Blood & Honey is quite different to the first book. I really enjoyed it. It went quite dark at times, was atmospheric and just saw things sort of spiral into some dark places. The romance is minimal but the character arcs are really interesting. It feels more character than plot driven, as the whole thing takes place in just a couple of weeks. I loved learning more about Coco. Both the Dame Rouge and Dame Blanche matriarchs make an appearance in this one too! I still have a lot of love for Lou and Reid. I will def be reading this again when I have my physical copies.

Rep post - @emberstagcandles have a Lou and a Reid. Lou is yummy and Reid is like a breathe of fresh air. Swipe to see a little animated piece of both candles. You can use code CANDYFLOSS10 to save 😍

Is there anything you can say “bookstagram made

Is there anything you can say “bookstagram made me do it?” to?

Yes. @oddsocks.blog made me find #fairyloot which made me find #illumicrate which made me find @madamealchemie which made me find @readingroom.candleco which made me want to join in with #readingroomcandlecult #readingroomwednesdays and made me find @obsessive_bibliomaniac who made me find monthly readalongs. I have a lot to be thankful for bookstagram - the friendships, the conversations, the book discussions, the recommendations and various amazing businesses that now have all my money because I apparently choose the fandom life.

Throne of Glass collectors edition book pictured with the Stars Eternal candle and Aelin & Manon tarot cards for #witchywednesday - I like this series, but mostly from book 3 onwards and I don’t like Chaol 🤷‍♀️
