Speaking of...bookstagram meet up! . San Antonio bookstagrammer meetup this afternoon was so fun and i was a beautiful day for it! I always love getting to meet my internet friends IRL. Sadie got to join us to today! She was not a fan, she definitely thought we were going to the dog park and was not impressed with the whole no running around thing. . Are you in the San Antonio area?? Let me know if you are! Were always looking to add folks to our meet ups! . . #speakingof #speakingofbooks #bookstagrammer #sabookstagramersunite #sanantoniobooklovers #ladysadie #meetup #saturdayouting #pupsandpages #riotgram #yelprrads #peasinjordanspods #bookstabuddiesđSpeaking of...Book Review! â .â One of the things I love about @bookofthemonth are the add-ons. There are constantly new books Iâve never heard of up for grabs & generally theyâre outside my go-to genres. The lastest book I read was one of these picks. â .â Itâs taken me a solid two weeks to decide how I want to review this book. I didnât hate it, & I actually really loved the way Carter writes. Her prose dances off the page and transports you into the book seamlessly. However, the story left me feeling...blah. I donât know how else to describe it. Itâs not that I even wanted more from the story, it was more that it left me slightly depressed (?) and to deep in my own thoughts. Which honestly isnât that what a good book is suppose to do? Make you think, even if itâs not fun? I go down that rabbit hole in my full review up on my blog this am, link in bio! I kind of want to recommend this book but always kind of donât recommend it. Iâm so torn but âď¸âď¸âď¸.â .â Lucky you, three women in their early twenties find themselves aimlessly adrift in the Arkansas college town they've stuck around in too long. Ellie, Chloe, and Rachel are friends (sort of), waitresses at the same dive bar. Each is becoming unmoored in her own way: Ellie obliterates all feeling with alcohol and self-destructive acts of sexual promiscuity; Chloe pulls out patches of her hair and struggles to keep incipient mental illness at bay; changeable Rachel has fallen under the sway of a messianic boyfriend with whom she's agreed to live off-grid for a year in order to return to "health", and she asks Ellie and Chloe to join them in "The Project." In a remote, rural house in the Ozarks, nearly undone by boredom and the brewing tension between them, each tries to solve the conundrum of being alive.â .â Anyone else read this book? Did you feel this way? Someone tell me how this book was suppose to make me feel? â .â .â #bookreview #speakingofblog #speakingofbooks #bookblogher #notjustaprettybook #bookstabuddiesđ #peasinjordanspods #luckyyou #counterpointpress #bookblogger #bookstagram #riotgram #yelpreads #botm #readersofinsta #books #bookish #alwaysreadingSpeaking of...currently reading. â .â Iâm finally back in the swing of normal life & with no wedding planning I find I have a ton of extra time! Woo! I finished up Last Christmas in Paris yesterday & am now working my way through Little Women! I actually already have a classic @puffinbooksusa copy but honestly I donât want that one to get any wear & tear, ya know? So I picked up this colorful copy from @bookofthemonth.â .â Who else is ready for the new movie to come out??!â .â .â #speakingof #speakingofbooks #bookblogger #bookofthemonth #ladysadie #pupsandpages #riotgram #yelpreads #bookstabuddiesđ #peasinjordanspods #alwaysreading #littlewomen #reread #newbooks #bookish #bookstagramSpeaking of...christmas! . Hi my name is Allie & Iâm obsessed with Christmas decorations. Just ask my husband, I had christmas trees at our wedding. Iâve been starting to narrow down what my favorite books of the year are & no spoilers yet but I used 6 of them for the #booktreechallenge @pattyisbooked is hosting! Any guess on what they might be? Here are some hints: 1ď¸âŁ Set during old hollywood and was a @bookofthemonth pick in 2018. 2ď¸âŁ Women during the cold war did alot more than just typing. 3ď¸âŁ If America had a monarchy. 4ď¸âŁ A weirdly christmas themed book. 5ď¸âŁ All I wanted was some fresh bread while reading this one. 6ď¸âŁ A romance author tries her hand at a thriller. . Share your guesses with me below! Im curious to see what everyone thinks were my favorites this year! . . #speakingof #speakingofbooks #speakingofblog #bookblogger #bookstagram #bookstabuddiesđ #peasinjordanspods #riotgram #yelpreads #booktree #christmasbooks #favoritereads #bestof2019 #christmastree #tistheseason #books #alwaysreadingTop Posts & Pages
