So, this hasn’t happened in a while...I’m actually in between books! I finished Ghost almost two weeks ago, and I just finished Jane Eyre last night! So, since I usually have a physical book and an ebook going at the same time, I’d like to introduce you to my next two books. 📚 The next physical book I will be reading is “Children of Blood and Bone” by Tomi Adeyemi. It is a fantasy novel that draws inspiration from all different sources, but is also greatly influenced by West African mythology and Yoruba culture (the author is Nigerian-American and her mother helped her with aspects of the novel using the Yoruba language). This book was the selection for The Tonight Show’s 2018 summer reading. Its sequel, “Children of Virtue and Vengeance”, is scheduled to be released in December. (This series is a planned trilogy.) And...for the first time in a long time, my edition is hardcover! (I don’t think it was out in paperback yet when I bought it back in April.) 📚 My ebook read is “The Color Purple” by Alice Walker. This novel won the 1983 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and is regarded as a classic of both feminist and African-American literature. It came in at number 27 in PBS’ #greatamericanread and is the highest-ranking book on the list by an author of color. #womenauthors #womenauthorsofcolor #womenprotagonists #womenprotagonistsofcolor #tomiadeyemi #alicewalker #fantasynovels #epistolarynovel #pulitzerprizewinner #nationalbookaward #newyorktimesbestsellers https://www.instagram.com/p/B2uFrSNp12G/?igshid=18ehxnxvy4oa8

You’ll notice the unusual background, but I’m traveling today (and tomorrow) for work. So I brought a book (or two! 😉) with me so I could take some photos and this bed sheet is perfect. . . Today’s prompt for reading rivalry was a book from the Great American Reads List! Have you read any of them? I haven’t read as many as I’d like - I think only like 30 something out of 100. Eek! This is on my list this month though: The Book Thief. Also important to read given the sad amount of Anti-Semitism occurring in the US. . . #bookthief #rryouknowyouwannabe #readingrivalry #greatamericanread #igreads #holocaustbook #yalit #bookflatlay #bookcover #inlumoslibertas #bookfeaturepage #booktravellife https://www.instagram.com/p/Bp0hAEKn2Vi/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1pixql5f0cb75

#Repost @jane_mount • • • • • America’s top 15 favorite books, voted on by 4+ million people for the Great American Read on PBS @greatamericanreadpbs !!

I think the OL fandom has been busy -- Outlander is still in the running for Best Loved Novel. Right up there with Jane Eyre, Little Women and To Kill a Mockingbird. (Where’s “Catcher in the Rye”?)
(Voting ends October 18th.)

“Fear seized my stomach like a cramp. I didn’t care what I said to him now; it was myself I was worried about. For if Leper was psycho it was the army which had done it to him, and I and all of us were on the brink of the army.” . . For a full review, check out my blog!
