My last few reads have been amazing but they have been a bit heavy. I'm excited to start this Fat Chance, Charlie Vega next. YA always gets me out of slumps but more importantly the stories are diverse, full of hope while at the same time adding little doses of real issues. I'm looking forward to this read as it deals with the Latinx experience and fat phobia while living in a white suburb. QOTD: What is a light hearted read you really enjoyed? Thanks to @holidayhousebks @hearourvoicestours for the gifted copy. I'm looking forward to the tour. 🌷🌷SYNOPSIS:🌷🌷 Coming of age as a Fat brown girl in a white Connecticut suburb is hard. Harder when your whole life is on fire, though. Charlie Vega is a lot of things. Smart. Funny. Artistic. Ambitious. Fat. People sometimes have a problem with that last one. Especially her mom. Charlie wants a good relationship with her body, but it's hard, and her mom leaving a billion weight loss shakes on her dresser doesn't help. The world and everyone in it have ideas about what she should look like: thinner, lighter, slimmer-faced, straighter-haired. Be smaller. Be whiter. Be quieter. But there's one person who's always in Charlie's corner: her best friend Amelia. Slim. Popular. Athletic. Totally dope. So when Charlie starts a tentative relationship with cute classmate Brian, the first worthwhile guy to notice her, everything is perfect until she learns one thing--he asked Amelia out first. So is she his second choice or what? Does he even really see her? UGHHH. Everything is now officially a MESS. A sensitive, funny, and painful coming-of-age story with a wry voice and tons of chisme, Fat Chance, Charlie Vega tackles our relationships to our parents, our bodies, our cultures, and ourselves. #FatChanceCharlieVega #latinxYAlit #CrystalMaldonado #readLatinx #ownvoices #fatphobia #bibliophile #bookstagram #comingofage #bookphotography #bookdragon #HearOurVoicesTours #bookworm #BooksofIG #Ilovebooks #Latinx #reading #bookwormactivities #Latinxbookstagram #youngadult #bookfeatures #bookrecomendations #HolidayHouse #comingsoon #ARC (at HomeGoods) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKPnG_PAtM_/?igshid=zp8q3bg0d52y

Finally picked up this beauty from my favorite indie bookstore @milmundosnyc . "It always began at night, when You had disappeared". This opening line is calling for me to stay up all night and binge this beauty. QOTD: What is the first line of the book you are currently reading? 🏜 SYNOPSIS: 🌵 From the award-winning author Mark Oshiro comes a powerful fantasy novel about finding home and falling in love amidst the dangers of a desert where stories come to life. Xochital is destined to wander the desert alone, speaking her troubled village's stories into its arid winds. Her only companions are the blessed stars above and enimagic lines of poetry magically strewn across dusty dunes. Her one desire: to share her heart with a kindred spirit. One night, Xo's wish is granted—in the form of Emilia, the cold and beautiful daughter of the town's murderous mayor. But when the two set out on a magical journey across the desert, they find their hearts could be a match... if only they can survive the nightmare-like terrors that arise when the sun goes down. Fresh off of Anger Is a Gift's smashing success, Oshiro branches out into a fantastical direction with their new YA novel, The Stars Around Us. #LatinxHeritageMonth #ownvoices #latinxbookstagram #latinxbooks #readlatinxallyearround #readlatinx #speculativefiction #booksandplants #bookdragon #bibliophile #bookish #bookwormactivities #succulents #markoshiro #eachofusadesert #torteen #latinxstories #pridebooks #YAfiction #YAreader #YAbooks #books #reading #booksarelife #bookworm #lgbtqiabooks (at YUGEN) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGBNcFVANwR/?igshid=xysso0j045ta

My giveaway win came in. Thank you so much @arianna.reads and @fabricbound! This is my second book sleeve and the surprise book choice was perfect. I love all things related to dinosaurs and book sleeves are becoming my new must have bookish item. QOTD: What bookish items do you collect? Featured Book: Crow Winter by Karen McBride 🦕🦖 SYNOPSIS:🦖🦕 Nanabush. A name that has a certain weight on the tongue—a taste. Like lit sage in a windowless room or aluminum foil on a metal filling. Trickster. Storyteller. Shape-shifter. An ancient troublemaker with the power to do great things, only he doesn’t want to put in the work. Since coming home to Spirit Bear Point First Nation, Hazel Ellis has been dreaming of an old crow. He tells her he’s here to help her, save her. From what, exactly? Sure, her dad’s been dead for almost two years and she hasn’t quite reconciled that grief, but is that worth the time of an Algonquin demigod? Soon Hazel learns that there’s more at play than just her own sadness and doubt. The quarry that’s been lying unsullied for over a century on her father’s property is stirring the old magic that crosses the boundaries between this world and the next. With the aid of Nanabush, Hazel must unravel a web of deceit that, if left untouched, could destroy her family and her home on both sides of the Medicine Wheel. #CrowWinter #KarenMcBride #books #HarperAvenue #readIndigenous #diversereading #booksleeves #fabricbound #giveawaywinner #decolonizebookstagram #bookish #bookworm #bookdragon #bookrec #ownvoices #dinosaurs #Ilovebooks #bibliophile #bookphotography #booksoutside #booksoutside #bookishitems #bookwormactivities #bookfeatures #Indigenousbooks #weneeddiversebooks #bookaddict #backyardbooks #bookishhobby (at Bushwick) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKZvcHLAs9q/?igshid=a35cq5qvqzkd

QOTD: What's your mood today? Tell me one thing you're going to do to take care of yourself today. It is the last day of October and I have finished exactly one book but I'm in the middle of four different books as we speak. This month has just been alot and too much at the same time. Recovering from this surgery is absolutely draining me and sleep alludes me every night. It has all made me realize that I'm running on empty and it is time to recharge. My anxiety would tell me I'm being selfish for wanting to do absolutely nothing but try to sleep. But the after therapy wiser me knows that if I don't take care of me, then who will when I'm completely broken. It's Monday and it already feels like Friday. I'm surrounded by books almost everywhere I step in my apartment and the last thing I want to do is read. I need sleep. That's it! That's all I got! I'm exhausted! #bookmarkcollector #dinosaurs #peterpauperpress #bookmark #bookstagramproblems #bookish #bookdragon #bookworm #nerdlife #takeabreaktoday #selfcareiskey #bibliophile #bookstagram #reading #hobby #readingislife #relaxandread #recoverymode #sleepdeprivedpost #booksinbed #bookwormactivities (at Bushwick) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIPRpvtA5On/?igshid=103bnt30bcyk6
