It's been years since I read The Bees but it's still one of my favourite reads in recent years. The concept of a dystopian novel set in a bee hive? How can you not love that? Plus, look how gorgeous. 🍁 #bookreadhappyhour - day 18. Unreliable narrator - I love an unreliable narrator. It's become a bit of a cliché but there have been sone great examples over the years. My favourite? Gotta be one of the OG unreliable narrators: Dr Sheppard from Roger Aykroyd. 🍁 #grimdragon - day 18. Non-human characters 🍁 #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #instabooks #instareads #bookphotography #bookphoto #bibliophile #booklover #bookish #bookblogger #bookblogging #bookblog #bookworm #bookflatlay #bookaholic #riotgrams #igreads #lalinepaull #books

From my review of Horrorstor. The rest is on my blog: "There’s no time to really ruminate on the horrors Hendrix is trying to describe. Something that is kind of important in the horror genre, right? Surely dragging out the whole experience is what makes it more terrifying and life-changing?" 🍁 I had such high hopes for this book but it was so disappointing. I wish I hadn't bothered really! 🍁 #bookreadhappyhour - day 17. Favourite standalones - so this wasn't one of them but I do tend to read standalones instead of series. I like the sense of completion at the end. I'm too impatient to wait for sequels. 🍁 #grimdragon - abandon all hope, ye who enter here - everyone in this book and, also, me whenever I walk into work. 🍁 #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #instabooks #instareads #bookphotography #bookphoto #bibliophile #booklover #bookish #bookblogger #bookblogging #bookblog #bookworm #bookflatlay #bookaholic #riotgrams #igreads #bookreviews #bookreview

Whilst editing this post I've had Simple Minds in my head. Just imagine if The Breakfast Club had actually ended with John Bender holding a donut aloft. I'd get behind that. 🍩 With every year that passed I lose my sweet tooth a little bit more. But I'm never one to turn down a donut or 12. They're my ultimate guilty pleasure and perfect for this week's @creativelysquared and @gingerfinchhome #cs_guiltypleasures challenge. Just add it to the bottom of the hundreds of other donut photos. 🍩 #donut #donuts #guiltypleasure #flatlay #flatlaylover #flatlaytoday #flatlays #guiltypleasures #sweet#sweettooth #treat #treats #donutlover #saltedcaramel #minimal #minimalism #minimalist #creativelysquared

I bought this lens ball a while ago cause it looked like loads of fun. But, obviously, I haven't used it yet. So I'm trying something a bit different. I think it's quite fitting for Harry Potter as it definitely looks like something you'd find in a Divination lesson. 🍁 #bookreadhappyhour - day 16 #fantasyfriday 🍁 #grimdragon - day 16 - techno-anarchist - I'm not going to pretend I had any idea of what to do with this prompt but, I figured, since the final book was released JK has become something of an anarchist. The amount of retconning she's been doing over the years. It's got to stop. 🍁 #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #instabooks #instareads #bookphotography #bookphoto #bibliophile #booklover #bookish #bookblogger #bookblog #bookworm #bookflatlay #bookaholic #igreads #harrypotter #bookstack #lensball #books

Who would you cast the movie version of your favourite book? 🍁 I'm quite excited by the prospect of an Eleanor Oliphant film. Or, at least, I was until I hear Reese Witherspoon herself wanted to play the lead role. I just don't see it as a good fit. Nothing about her in particular but she doesn't fit any of the right characteristics. In my mind she's too old, too pretty, and too glamorous. I'd love to see someone like Louise Brealey play her. I think that could work really well. 🍁 #bookreadhappyhour - day 15. Your favourite book is being made into a film: cast your main characters - you'll have to me time on the rest. 🍁 #grimdragon - throw me into the fire 🍁 #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #instabooks #instareads #bookphotography #bookphoto #bibliophile #booklover #bookish #bookblogger #bookblog #bookworm #bookflatlay #bookaholic #igreads #eleanoroliphant #eleanoroliphantiscompletelyfine #flatlay #flatlaytoday

I feel like we do this a lot for the prompt "most eagerly awaited" or whatever. As much as I want George RR to do everything right, I am getting anxious to carry on with ASOIAF. I need to know things George. I need to know! 🍁 #bookreadhappyhour - day 14. Most anticipated sequel - I think this is true for basically everyone, right? 🍁 #grimdragon - day 14. An unfinished series. 🍁 #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #instabooks #instareads #bookphotography #bookphoto #bibliophile #booklover #bookish #bookblogger #bookworm #bookflatlay #bookaholic #igreads #asoiaf #asongoficeandfire #georgerrmartin #adancewithdragons #gameofthrones

My review of My Mum Tracy Beaker will be going up on the blog sometime tomorrow. It was so much fun going back to my childhood with this book. I love Jacqueline Wilson. She was my favourite authors growing up. I was genuinely obsessed with her stuff. 🍁 #bookreadhappyhour - day 13. Fictional storyteller 🍁 #grimdragon - day 13. I AM UNASHAMED - Something Tracy is definitely unashamed of her actions. To a fault but it's okay. 🍁 #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #instabooks #instareads #bookphotography #bookphoto #bibliophile #booklover #bookish #bookblogger #bookblogging #bookblog #bookworm #bookflatlay #bookaholic #igreads #jacquelinewilson #tracybeaker #mymumtracybeaker

Wanted to do a quick repost of this after hearing about Stan Lee's death. I know Lee had his own share of controversy but the man helped create some of the most important characters in comic book history. He inspired so many people and brought so much joy. He was an icon and the world is a sadder place without him. Excelsior! 🍁 #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #instabooks #instareads #bookphotography #bookphoto #bibliophile #booklover #bookish #bookblogger #bookblogging #bookblog #bookworm #bookflatlay #bookaholic #igreads #ripstanlee #stanlee #marvel #marvelcomics #comicbooks

When I took this photo yesterday my plans for today were very different. I expected to have a super lazy day off. Instead, I had to have a blood test and it's been a non-stop adventure ever since. So much for The Big Sleep, eh!? 🍁 #bookreadhappyhour - day 12. #moodmonday - The Big Sleep still kind up sums up my mood. I'm so tired. 🍁 #grimdragon - day 12. Black and white - I've said it before but m not a fan of B&W photography. But I'm willing to go there for Bookstagram 🍁 #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #instabooks #instareads #bookphotography #bookphoto #bibliophile #booklover #bookish #bookblogger #bookblogging #bookblog #bookworm #bookflatlay #bookaholic #igreads #penguinbooks #penguinclassics #blackandwhite #blackandwhitephotography
