✨ hi book babes! 👋 Have you ever fell in lo ✨ hi book babes! 👋 Have you ever fell in love with a book so hard that you stretch out reading it because you don’t want the story to end???? 🙋‍♀️ I flew through Two Girls Down only because I knew I could immediately follow up with The Janes- which I ✨savored✨ I am so excited about Lana’s work! Both books are fast paced, thrill rides. This is what a thriller should be. Dare I mention #HarryBosch? I absolutely love the reading of body language, the deductions and the characters. Alice Vega is a badass 😎 and I want more. #chanelbag #bookbag #bookphotogeaphy #thrillerbookseries #crimejunkie #orlandostyle #twogirlsdown #thejanes #favoritecharacters #harryboschfanclub #thrillerbookseries #bookstagram #booknerd #booklove #bookblogger #bookblogging #bookstagrammer #readingisfun #readingislife #readersgonnaread #favoritebookseries #autobuyauthors #authorlove
Shadow and Bone⠀ ⠀ Full disclosure- I’ve onl Shadow and Bone⠀ ⠀ Full disclosure- I’ve only read this one Grishaverse book (SO FAR) 🖤 ⠀ ⠀ I went in blind, knowing nothing but this was YA and fantasy, two of my least favorite genres. (I read this pre-ACOTAR, obv 😂) I was immediately hooked. Oh my gosh, it really is good! I was expecting shallow and unbelievable but instead I got intense depth.⠀ ⠀ The series is outstanding. It made me want to read the rest of the series to know more about Kaz, Inej and Jasper. But even knowing next to nothing, the first season was rich and thrilling and a fantastical story that I couldn’t get enough of. ⠀ ⠀ Recipes:⠀ ~ Sun Summoner Cocktail ⠀ ~ The Darkling Cocktail ⠀ ~ Poppyseed Bird Rolls⠀ ⠀ Full review and recipes are on the blog! ⠀ ➡️ link in bio ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #ShadowAndBone #novelcocktails #fantasybooks #bookstagram #grishaverse #sunsummoner #darkling #leighbardugobooks #grishaversefanart #shadowandbonenetflix #shadowandbonetrilogy #booknerd #booklover #booklove #fantasyart #mybookfeatures #booksandfood #bookclub #bookclubparty #bookparty #shadowandbonewatchparty
