I picked this beauty up at Half Price Books in Austin, TX! I couldn't resist all of the shiny on the cover. 😍🤩 I'm such a sucker for a good cover on a book I already love, and the minute I saw this one I knew it would be going home with me. . What is a book you own multiple copies of because you need all of the different covers? . . . #bookcation #halfpricebooks #janeausten #prideandprejudice #prettybooks #bookcover #shinybooks #bookobsessed #bookcollector #justkeepreading #qotd📚 #qotd https://www.instagram.com/yepireadthat/p/BupxlPqnr9S/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=nevyr2eu2f6

My current work book is Persuasion. I love this cover! It's like having art I can read on my desk. . Do you have different books for different places or parts of your day? Or do you stick to one at a time and just take it everywhere with you? . . . #qotd📚 #workbook #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #bookcover #janeausten #qotd #bookbreak #booksandtea #bookobsessed #readeverywhere #booknerd #alwaysreading https://www.instagram.com/yepireadthat/p/BuofwuRHud1/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=oei43ll6wl17

This book shop was very cool. Full of gorgeous, old, unique, expensive books. I couldn't afford to leave with any of them, but there were a few I wish I could have. . . . #socobooks #southcongress #austintx #bookcation #latergram #booklover #bookstorelife https://www.instagram.com/yepireadthat/p/BukY6GJnZCv/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=149v9q2q0asfj

Is there anything better than visiting your grandma? Maybe when you visit her and she gives you books she's finished. 💕💕💕 . . . #bookstagram #bookporn #bookfairy #bookstack #surprisebooks #handmedownbooks #secondhandbooks #thefamilythatreadstogether #itsgenetic https://www.instagram.com/p/BtT-x89HTeU/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=buvah92we4qa

Sometimes it's nice to remember that you're not alone in this giant, limitlessness universe. Pluto is out there, and so is Lin-Manuel Miranda. Both of them live among the stars, and at least one of them knows what extreme loneliness and rejection looks like. . Do you have a book you keep close for the days you need a little extra push out of bed? . . . #bookpic #booksofinstagram #bookgram #readergram #mybookfeatures #booklove #qotd📚 #bookporn #fairylights #bookmarks #booknerd #gmorninggnight #linmanuelmiranda #pluto https://www.instagram.com/p/BtRpN3rnm3l/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=zy97dx1ztnwg

There is something about a card catalog that makes me smile. I remember loving going through the one in my local library when I was a child with my little scrap of paper ready to write down the location of the book I wanted to read. It was such a physical act, and I very much miss it. . . . #cardcatalog #booksofinstagram #bookphotography #booknerd #candlesandbooks #bookish #mybookfeatures #booklove #beautifulbook #libraryofcongress https://www.instagram.com/p/BtL1aqLHo61/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=rcrrpdbwbzm5

The book fairy visited me twice last week. I love that when my friends heard I'd been laid off from work, their instinct was to send me books! (And Oreos, and Japanese KitKats.) Thank you so much @sarachicazul and @kristiecolon1! You ladies have helped keep me steady this month. . . . #bookfairy #bookmail #goodbooks #goodfriends #booktherapy #poetry #mariekondo #konmari #bookstack #booksofinstagram #bookpic #bookphotography https://www.instagram.com/p/BtHlqSdne4N/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1hptf8tac6fqg

I had both of these out last night for very different reasons, and I realized how well they go together. . Don't let the hard days get you down. .

Is there anything better than a freshly dusted and organized bookshelf? . What are you reading today?

Today I am thankful for gift cards to my favorite local bookstore that past me hoarded away.

My mailbox has recently been the bearer of great gifts from amazing friends. Today that friend is @kristiecolon1, and that gift is this incredible book. Thank you, dear.

This book showed up on my doorstep today! I'm not sure who sent it, but it came at a really good time, and it definitely made my day.

Some reading stats from last year! I read 110 books total. 4 #middlegrade, 15 #ya, and 91 adult. I've done a pretty good job of diversifying what I read, and am pretty proud that romance was less than 50% of my total. . This year I definitely want to read even more ya and middle grade books, and I want to explore some of the genres I dipped my toe in in 2018 a bit more adventurously. . What are you wanting to read more of this year? . . . #readingstats #readersofinstagram #goodreads #goodreadschallenge #ireadya #romancereader #ireadkidsbooks #readmore #bookstagram #books📚 #qotd📚 #qotd https://www.instagram.com/p/BsJHsmpHCmZ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1x5vtz8bleehj

Sometimes the world gives you really great presents.
