Instagram post 2228594585769371590_12415367 I picked up these library holds in Monday and just got a notification that another hold has come in. My goal of reading the books I own instead of always getting library books may not be working out so well, 😂. Guts is a middle grade graphic novel about anxiety, health, and friendship. I read it in one sitting, and as always with Raina's books, adored it. It's a fun and accessible way for kids to learn about anxiety and that they aren't alone in it. Pride, Prejudice, and Other Flavors is what you'd guess, a P&P retelling. If you've followed me for a while, you'll know how much I love P&P and retellings of it. This one is gender swapped, and the Darcy character is woman named Trisha 😆. I'm hoping to dig into it today once I get some more work done. What are you reading this weekend? . . . #librarybooks #calgarylibrary #guts #prideandprejudiceandotherflavors #retellings #bookish #bookblogger #reader #readmore #tbr #bookstack #bookstagram #bookishcanadian
Instagram post 2227834721052988586_12415367 Time passes so strangely. One minute, it feels like time is passing so slowly, but the next, it feels as though the week has flown by. I struggle with the passage of time. I want this season of waiting to be over, and yet I also want to be present in the moment and able to appreciate all the little things that make life, even in the hard times, wonderful. If you're in a hard season right now or a season of waiting, I hope you know that you're not alone in it. I know it often feels like we're alone as time drags, but whenever I pause and really look around, I'm able to see the people and blessings around me that are holding me up even when I can't see or feel them. Here's to still hoping, still dreaming, and still recognizing the good even in the difficult. . . . #musings #hope #grief #waiting #infertility #pregnancyloss #blessings #gratitude
Instagram post 2226416405962771809_12415367 This is the book I bought at @russellbooksvictoria in honour of my Grandpa. It's about a girl who goes into a wilderness called Wildwood to save her brother. I've wanted to read it for years, and will definitely be placing it near the top of my TBR. Middle grade books like this one are so special. They often focus on friendships and sibling relationships. And they are often stories about kids coming into their own, realizing how strong or smart or capable they are. I think those are the types of stories we all need to hear sometimes. If Prue can save her brother from the creatures of Wildwood, I can get through whatever it is I need to get through today. . . . #middlegradebooks #middlegradefiction #adventurestories #bookhaul #newbook #book #bookish #read #reader #wildwood #colinmeloy #balzerandbray #harpercollinscanada
Instagram post 2225825160244587000_12415367 This weekend we said goodbye to my grandpa. My family gathered together around my grandmother, more than 20 of us, to share memories and moments of love. And, before we journeyed home, we stopped at a bookstore to explore. It was a few moments of peace in a busy weekend of events and family get-togethers. My grandfather always encouraged me to read. We would sit together, me with a book and him with the newspaper, and read silently. I will miss his quiet faith, his generosity, and his infectious smile. I will always be grateful that he loved me for me, bookishness included. . . . #grandfather #granddaughter #bookstore #explorebookstores #newbookstore #sayinggoodbye #bookish #bookishcanadian #indiebookstore
Instagram post 2222800874365915636_12415367 My tea cupboard is over flowing. And this is one of my latest additions, Grisha Grey tea from the lovely (and local!) @teahippies and was a gift from my sweet friend and writing buddy @kimcreatorca. Find yourself friend who give tea and books and bookish inspired tea as gifts. 😊 Have you read the Grishaverse books by Leigh Bardugo? They are really cool fantasy with a lot of layers. And, a Netflix show is in the works! This post isn't sponsored. I just like talking about books and local companies I like. Do you have a favourite tea or tea company? . . . #bookandtea #bookishtea #grishaverse #shadowandbone #fantasybooks #booktomovie #tea #teacup #shoplocal #cochrane #yyc
Instagram post 2221638571389894064_12415367 I started this book today (thanks for sending it @raincoastbooks) and oh my goodness I'm loving it. I'm 60 pages in and the Jane Austen (Anne Elliot) vibes and the space ships colonized by European royalty who had to flee Earth mix so well with the bachelorette/find a husband vibe. Plus there's a mystery, and political intrigue and so much. I've been sucked in. Full review will be on the blog next month once I've finished reading. If the rest of the book is as good as the first 60 pages, it will be magnificent. What are you reading today? . . . #yareads #yaromance #yascifi #sciencefiction #bookish #reviewcopy #2020release #alexadonne #thestarswesteal #youngadultbooks #booksandtea #cozy #snowday #newbook #bookstoread #bookstagram #bookblogger
Instagram post 2220037983460055585_12415367 I've been slowly working my way through this book since the fall (thanks @alexkgt!) and the more I read, the more I learn, and the more I believe that everyone should read this book. 📚 I love finding experts who are writing books to help others and share their knowledge in accessible ways. And @drjengunter is smart and snarky and doing just that - using her decades of training and experience to dispel lies and inform women about our bodies. 📚 What books have you learned a lot from? . . . #amreading #thevaginabible #nonfiction #bookish #bookishcanadian #read #booksforwomen #booksbywomen #booksaboutwomen #science #scicomm
Instagram post 2218466743217763675_12415367 Friday morning self care means a wander around Winners, then picking up a London Fog and reading a fun book for an hour. . I finished a couple of projects yesterday and decided to take this morning to rest and refresh. . Working from home can make it difficult to remember to rest, there's always something to do. But knowing that taking breaks is really important for my mental health is one of the reasons why I chose to go freelance instead of seeking new full-time employment after Hudson died. I need these breaks and mornings of rest to remain healthy. . What do you do to give yourself breaks to rest? . . . #mentalhealth #break #rest #freelance #freelancewriter #freelanceeditor #lossmama #stillbirth #grief #readingbreak #booksandtea #reader
