I love a candy cane at Christmas. The minty, chewy goodness is the perfect treat. Or stick one in a hot chocolate. I know the candy canes here have green in them but I needed an excuse to bring out my Murakami. 📚 #bookreadhappyhour - day 11.

I had high hopes for The Turn of the Key but it didn't really work for me. Not only was it super obvious but there were so many ideas that weren't explored. I liked the fact that the main character wasn't sleeping and it was making everything worse. I just think it could have gone further. Lack of sleep really messes with you and it could have been really interesting to see her succumb to that. Ah well. 📚 #bookreadhappyhour - day 10 📚 #books #bookstagram #bookworm #reading #booklover #read #bibliophile #booknerd #bookish #instabook #bookaddict #igreads #bookphotography #bookstagramfeature #instabooks #reader #booklove #cosyreads #hygge #bookreviews #bookreview #raw_flatlay #raw_books #christmas #christmasreads
One of the best ideas explored in Harry Potter is that family is what you make it. Harry makes his family from the people he meets. It's powerful and is one of the reasons why the book should have ended before the epilogue. The image of the three of them at the end of their 7 year journey was perfect. 📚 #bookreadhappyhour - day 9. 📚 #books #bookstagram #bookworm #reading #booklover #read #bibliophile #booknerd #bookish #instabook #bookaddict #igreads #bookphotography #bookstagramfeature #instabooks #reader #booklove #cosyreads #hygge #bookreviews #bookreview #raw_flatlay #raw_books #christmas #christmasreads #harrypotter
QUESTION: what was the last film you saw? I'm late posting today because I've had a lot the fit in. I've just got back from seeing Frozen 2 with a friend. I enjoyed it. The songs are once again pretty catchy and the story is good. Next I want to see Jumanji and Knives Out. God, I want to see Knives Out so badly. If only for Chris Evans in knitwear. 📚 #bookreadhappyhour - day 8.

Thanks to The Simpsons I'll always read The Shinning instead of The Shining. It's just a bit more fun. I've not read Doctor Sleep yet or seen the film. I'm not sure it's really for me. 📚 #bookreadhappyhour - day 7 📚 #books #bookstagram #bookworm #reading #booklover #read #bibliophile #booknerd #bookish #instabook #bookaddict #igreads #bookphotography #bookstagramfeature #instabooks #reader #booklove #cosyreads #hygge #bookreviews #bookreview #raw_flatlay #raw_books #christmas #christmasreads #stephenking #theshining
QUESTION: What was the last book you read? I enjoyed the first part of The Wall but I ended up being disappointed. It just didn't go deep enough into the word Lanchester had created. I would have been happy to stay on the Wall. Seeing the tension grow as the days dragged on. That was the concept I was excited about. 📚 #bookreadhappyhour - day 6. Interesting job you guys have... 📚 #books #bookstagram #bookworm #reading #booklover #read #bibliophile #booknerd #bookish #instabook #bookaddict #igreads #bookphotography #bookstagramfeature #instabooks #reader #booklove #cosyreads #hygge #bookreviews #bookreview #raw_flatlay #raw_books #christmas #christmasreads
QUESTION: Who is the greatest literary detective? In crime fiction there is a huge divide between being a genius and being nice. Sherlock Holmes and Hercule Poirot are two of the greatest fictional detectives of all time. Would you want to he friends with them? Not necessarily. I mean even their authors ended up disliking them. 📚 #bookreadhappyhour - day 5. Unlikable characters you can't help but love 📚 #books #bookstagram #bookworm #reading #booklover #read #bibliophile #booknerd #bookish #instabook #bookaddict #igreads #bookphotography #bookstagramfeature #instabooks #reader #booklove #cosyreads #hygge #bookreviews #bookreview #raw_flatlay #raw_books #christmas #christmasreads #penguinbooks
Being a Harry Potter fan as the books were being written was an odd thing. You start off at exactly the right age but, inevitably, you grow up quicker then the characters. It changed how I saw the books and how I see them now. It's a really complex relationship. I love them but there are things about the fandom that I can't cope with. 📚 #bookreadhappyhour - day 4. It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. 📚 #books #bookstagram #bookworm #reading #booklover #read #bibliophile #booknerd #bookish #instabook #bookaddict #igreads #bookphotography #bookstagramfeature #instabooks #reader #booklove #cosyreads #hygge #bookreviews #bookreview #raw_flatlay #raw_books #christmas #christmasreads #harrypotter #harrypotterandthephilosophersstone
QUESTION: What was the last book that you bought? I couldn't resist this Penguin Book of Christmas Stories. It's the kind of cover that makes you want to curl up by a fire with a mug of mulled wine. 📚 #bookreadhappyhour - day 3. 📚 #books #bookstagram #bookworm #reading #booklover #read #bibliophile #booknerd #bookish #instabook #bookaddict #igreads #bookphotography #bookstagramfeature #instabooks #reader #booklove #cosyreads #hygge #bookreviews #bookreview #raw_flatlay #raw_books #christmas #christmasreads #penguinbooks
