Speaking of...#throwbackthursday ⠀ .⠀ I’m slowly moving some of my old books (and other things) from my parents house into my house. & by slowly I mean I bought my house more than 3 years ago and still have a full closet & bookcase there😬. Most recently I managed to bring my Harry Potter books home, so progress is being made, kinda 🙈. When I was packing them up I was thinking about just how long I’ve actually had these books. I read the first 4 books back in 2001. Meaning the I’ve had some of these for almost 20 years. That’s crazy to think about! ⠀ .⠀ Harry Potter has been such a big part of my life, because of this I’ve decided that for the next couple of weeks I’ll be using #tbt to illustrate my favorite memories, events, characters & thoughts about the Harry Potter series. If you’d like to join in with me swipe to see my schedule & use #speakingofhp so I can see your posts! There may even be some surprise giveaways so make sure to follow my stories! ⠀ .⠀ First question: When did you first pick up the Harry Potter Series? I really couldn’t read til I was in 3rd grade (~9yrs old) and by the time my 11th birthday came around I was a reading feen. My mom gifted me the The Sorcerer Stone and once I started I was hooked! And obviously I was meant to be obsessed since I started them close to my 11th bday right??! ⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #speakingof #speakingofbooks #speakingofblog #blogger #bookreviewer #harrypotter #lunalovegood #hermionegranger #jkrowling #bibliophiles #reader #epicreads #bookstagram #instabook #bookish #bookaddict #speakingofhp #favoriteseries #readers #lunalovegood
Speaking of...Unfinished reads⠀ .⠀ A couple months ago I borrowed Where the Crawdads Sing from a friend, read 60 pgs, and it’s been sitting on my nightstand ever since. Until i noticed there was a buddy read for April and figured this would be the perfect time to circle back to it. Since our discussion is this coming Sunday, I thought I’d read the book this week and was aiming to start it on my flight yesterday. However, #bookstagram gave me major FOMO and ended up starting NOS4A2 instead. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Hoping to get to this book on my flight back home on Friday so that I don’t let everyone with #wherethebuddyreads down. Wish me luck! ⠀ .⠀ What’s the last book you kept putting off or have been avoided reading for whatever reason?? ⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #spekingof #speakingofbooks #speakingofblog #bookblogger #booklover #wherethecrawdadssing #nos4a2 #bibliophiles #reader #currentlyreading #fomo #buddyreads #instabook #summerflowers #yellowfields #flowerfields
Speaking of...Work trips! 🧳 ⠀ .⠀ Hope everyone is having a terrific Tuesday! I’m currently heading to the airport to head out for a 3 day work trip. Think I packed enough books 🤔? ⠀ .⠀ I have a weird relationship with traveling for work. On one hand I love visiting new places & seeing clients face to face, it does wonders for relationship building. On the flip side I get out of my routine & I miss my bed 🛏. Anyway going to enjoy my afternoon of reading and sitting on a ✈️ plane. Traveling as much as I do for work also means I can’t have a dog 🐶 because #responsible so that’s a downer. ⠀ .⠀ QOTD: What’s the most interesting place you’ve traveled for work?? I’ve been to Sydney a few times with my job with is awesome! ⠀ .⠀ .⠀
Speaking of...weekly reads! ⠀ .⠀ After binge eating chocolate & drinking mimosas all weekend I’m very thankful I took today off! Going to do a little wedding shopping with my sister, mom, and MIL today instead of working 😁. So you could say my week is off to a good start. 💁🏼‍♀️⠀ .⠀ Last week I ended up not reading as much as I wanted but that’s okay. I was under the weather for most of the week and sometimes you just need to prioritize sleep over anything else. I’ve also only finished 4 books this month so far & I’m really trying to get a few more in to stay on target with my reading goal for the year. This week to help stay on track I’m planning on tackling:⠀ ⠀ 📖 Where The Crawdads Sing : I need to read this for my buddy read this month with #wherethebuddiesread I’ve been dragging on this one, I have no idea why but I am. ⠀ 📖 Beyond the Point : this was my April #botm pick and I’m really intrigued by the plot. ⠀ 📖 You, Me, & the Sea : An ARC I’ve been trying to get to before May hits. This one hits shelf’s on May 19th! ⠀ .⠀ .⠀ QOTD: What was your reading goal for April and how are you fairing so far??? ⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #speakingof #speakingofblog #speakingofbooks #bookstagram #booklover #bookblogger #weekendsareforreading #bookaddict #bookish #bibliophile #readingtime #goodreads #instabook #beautifulbooks #epicreads #aprilreads #beyondthepoint #youmeandthesea #wherethecrawdadssing #igbooks #iheartbooks #bookgram #bookstagrammers
