you lived in a suburban area, somewhere in nagoya. you also heard stories about paris— that it was the city of love. the longer you think about it, the more you get nauseous. it started with one phone call. you quickly hurried to it as it started ringing an obnoxious loud tone. you grabbed the phone rapidly, curious on who it was. with a swipe of your finger to the right, you picked up. you still recognized that voice— it was your boss. ‘’hey!’’ she said in a cheery manner, the audio was quite glitchy the more she spoke and some parts weren’t even audible— it wasn’t strange, she lived in central tokyo.

‘’hi? is there anything?’’ you asked in a polite manner, wondering why she was calling at 1 am. you were in the bathroom, getting ready to go to bed peacefully. ‘’yeah— sooo.. i’m pregnant.’’ ‘’HUH? what? when? how—’’ she interrupts you in the middle of your rambling by letting out a chuckle. ‘’silly. that doesn’t matter. but what does matter is i’m going on preg’ leave.’’ she thinks for a moment, ‘’ah… also, i need you to take care of my office in paris..’’ she trails off, not sure if you were going to be happy about it— you didn’t really have a choice. your eyes light up, it was like a kid getting invited to disneyland— but this was much better than disneyland. this was PARIS. the city of looooove. your crowded thoughts quickly disappear when she says, ‘’remember, it’s for 6 months. and it’s no vacation, you still gotta work.’’ you frown, knowing that you’d still have to be forced to partake in boring ass projects. ‘’sounds good. when?’’

‘’tomorrow.’’ your heart basically drops, seriously? tomorrow? dammit— now you’d have to worry about packing in, instead of sleeping like normal. and is it even that good? you’d probably have to learn french, the culture.. everything that comes along with it. wait— hold on. how could you forget? you also had a boyfriend here, in japan. and you’d somehow have to beg him to come to paris with you— but he’s basically a workaholic! you hang up on your bosswithout realizing it, you were frantically calling nanami. ‘’hello, darling?’’ he says in a puzzled tone to the phone’s speaker. ‘’oh. yeah, hi nanami— something supa’ important.’’ you weren’t sure how you’d tell him, i mean… it’s such a big responsibility for you, and for him.. you didn’t even know where he’d work at. maybe the office you were at? maybe he doesn’t even like working there. you were so clueless, but you just decided to say it straight-up. ‘’i’m going to paris. tomorrow. you’re coming with me!’’ you hadn’t realized it yet, but you were begging him. ‘’what..?’’ he stammers, confused what you were talking about it. ‘’honey— you know i can’t come to paris. and definitely not tomorrow.’’ ‘’nanami. this is no vacation— i’m going there for 6 months. for work. my (former) boss is going on pregnancy leave, and i have to take care of her office in paris.’’ you try to explain, not sugarcoating anything.

‘’sorry, i can’t do it.’’ he said in a stern manner, a huge contrast to your behavior. your heart double-dropped. what is this feeling? heartbreak? probably. ‘’and. i don’t wanna do long distance…’’ you furrow your eyebrows, was he.. breaking up with you? instead of responding, you hung up.

who cares? you’d had bigger issues anyway. right?? like packing in for, for paris! oh no.. you were one minor inconvenience away from a full-blown breakdown. you hurried to grab a stable suitcase. let’s not talk about the metallic hello kitty pattern on it. you were sure people were gonna comment on it, but whatever. confidence is key! (damn, you can recite positivity quotes like a song in your head— but that’s not gonna help anything)

you waddled to the closet, to shove as much as you can in your suitcase. are you sure that’s not a bit overboard..? you knew deep down you’d probably be forced to pay a mandatory fee for your fatass luggage. you put other basic amenities in, till your case couldn’t even be shut. is this overpackeritis? if so, you were probably diagnosed with it. you had to take some (a lot) of items, even your most memorable ones! like your hello kitty hairbrush. oh god. we’re not a hello kitty girl, right? even though it’s only been, what, 10 minutes? you felt your hands cramp up from carrying that heavy suitcase to one room to another. it’s good that you finished packing in. you walked— no, jumped on your bed before falling fast asleep. wow, that’s one sure way to get over a breakup… by sleeping it off! ring.. ring.. ring.. you heard your doorbell go off like 5 times. ‘’madam! mademoiselle! you are going to miss your flight!’’ the male.. and presumably french taxi driver shouts from the door. you rubbed your eyes, before quickly heading downstairs with your suitcase in hand. shit! you were still wearing your horrid statement shirt.. and batman pyjama pants? people were gonna think you weren’t good in the head. oh, whatever— you overslept, so now you have to go through the consequences of not being able to dress into something more appropriate. you open the door, awkwardly hiding your questionable fashion choices away from the taxi driver. ‘’hey.. um.’’ you smiled, and the second he turned around, you made sure to step out of the door. (and wow! you now magically have your phone in your hand and passport in the other.) you made sure to lock the door before catching up with the taxi driver. you weren’t sure if that was a weird glance from him.. you stepped in the car, it was probably a toyota. the interior was all-black, but it was still somewhat clean. sure, some dust particles in the crevices, however it was much better than the other cars you were in. (like nanami’s one— maybe that’s a bit too petty...) as soon as you put on your seatbelt, the person starts driving.. a bit too fast. sir, it’s a 25 mph street…! you don’t say anything, just hoping that he wouldn’t drive a kid over. he probably has a driver’s license (you hope), so it doesn’t matter. you look outside the window, before realizing you weren’t gonna see your house anymore for.. 6 months.

hmm.. before even realizing it— you were already at the nagoya chubu airport. ‘’have a good day, madam.’’ the taxi driver smiles faintly before heading off. you turn around, never having realized the sheer size of an airport. and even though it was still early, there were loads of people. tons of commotions in every part of the air terminal. you honestly felt overwhelmed, but you powered through and found the lane you needed to be at. LANE 6, TIME: 06:30 (or 5:30 am for the americans…) fast forward to when you finally arrive in paris. wait, not yet, you were still at the paris charles de gaulle airport. you were getting picked up by someone. he had beefy arms, you swear a vein would pop if he tried flexing it. he also had huge tits, i mean a huge chest. before you could stare any longer, he looked down at you. sure, he was attractive, but also damn intimidating..! ‘’what are ya starin’ at?’’ he lets out a scoff. ‘’hurry up and get in the car.’’ he opens the car door for you, hey, atleast that was polite. you nod, hurriedly getting in the BMW car. it was significantly less clean, some cigarette packs scattered throughout, a lot of dust.. and even a cobweb in the corner. you felt a lump grow in your throat, but you still wanted to know some information about him. ‘’wha.. what’s your name?’’

‘’toji. toji zenin.’’ he clenches the steering wheel. you recognize that last name! it being a somewhat well-known clan in japan. ‘’ah.. why are you in paris then?’’ he lets out a scoff, turning his head around and getting a good look at your face. ‘’cus’ i’m a broke ass bitch.’’ he points to the cigarette pack. ‘’pass me that.’’ he says in a non-polite way. you hesitate, wanting to be petty— but you didn’t wanna get clapped by him (but he definitely could in the bedroom). you give him the cigarettes, there were only 2 left in the red packaging. ‘’and the lighter, idiot.’’ you pass him the rusty lighter, you just saw from the amount of leftover cigarettes in the car that he must’ve been a heavy chainsmoker. he opens the window, lighting up the cig’. ‘’what’s your name, darlin?’’ he looks in the rearview mirror of the car to see the nervous look on your face, letting out a chuckle before shifting his attention to the road in front of him. ‘’um.. just call me whatever.’’ he raises an eyebrow, ‘’anything..? mmm.. so i can call you a whore. got it.’’ he says in an annoyingly sarcastic manner. you let out an inner-scoff. that’s not what i meant…! you say to yourself seriously? whore? you bite the inside of your cheek, not wanting to answer. ‘’it was a joke, cutie. don’t take it seriously.’’ he says, putting the attention on the look of your face. he throws the cigarette out of the slightly open window before taking up the speed by a few notches. you soon arrive at the apartment your boss assigned to you. it was located near the office. ‘’ey, what’s your number?’’ you hesitate, not wanting to give your number to a random taxi driver and certainly not someone who nearly called you a whore— but ah.. he was certainly a fine guy… soo, whatever. you speak up, ‘’um.. it’s xxx-xxx-xxx.’’ you notice him writing it down on a small piece of paper. ‘’got it. have a fine day, darlin.’’ he slyly smirks before you open the car door and hurriedly go to your apartment door. it was on floor 4.. you think. you carry the luggage inside just to notice.. there’s no fuckin’ elevator?!

you’d have to carry this up 4 floors… you walk upstairs for what seems like an eternity. you try to open the door, before you hear someone stepping up to the door— huh? wasn’t this your apartment. the door creaks open to a blue-eyed male with frosty white hair. ‘’mmm? who’s this?’’ he keeps the door open by leaning his arm against it. ‘’i.. believe this is my apartment?’’ he looks confused for a moment. ‘’ah… on which floor are you supposed to go?’’ ‘’floor.. 4?’’ his smirk turns into a full blown smile. ‘’silly ass. in france, the first floor for you is the ground floor for us. so you have to go up one floor.’’

you let out a huff that was a bit too audible, because he quickly notices the luggage behind you. ‘’you want me to help you carry that? i assume you’re from japan?’’ he looks you up and down, nearly letting out a laugh when he notices what you’re wearing. you furrow your eyebrows, ‘’yea, how do you know?’’ he puts his hands in his pockets. ‘’pfft.. oh, nothing— you totally don’t have a sanrio suitcase. don’t worry, i’m from japan too.’’ you hesitate, he didn’t look remotely japanese— not to be stereotypical or anything, but he had white hair and horrifying blue eyes. traits that aren’t normal in japan.. or really, anywhere else. ‘’why are you looking like that? i really am~’’ he nudges your shoulder as he carries your suitcase upstairs. ‘’why are you in france, anyway?’’ he shrugs, ‘’cause japan got too boring.’’ eh.. too boring? he wasn’t here for work or anything.. but just ‘cause he felt like it? ‘’how rich are you?’’ i mean, he lived in central paris— the capital of france, usually apartments don’t come too cheap. you both walk up to the apartment you should’ve been at. ‘’rich enough to buy a mansion in every country.’’ a grin appears on his face. ‘’even that may be an understatement.’’ your eyes widen, an understatement? you could hardly even afford to live in nagoya. his comment didn’t even make that much sense, if he can buy a mansion in every country— why would he live in a small apartment then? you open the door, noticing that the apartment is largely already decorated by who you assume was your former boss. ‘’i did jujutsu for decades. basically since i was born.’’ he adds onto his sentence. he walks in your apartment with you. ‘’wow, not bad. it’s hard to buy houses like this in paris. i’m speaking from experience, they don’t like tourists in france.’’ he looks around. you hurry to the closed curtain, before opening it to reveal a view nearby the eiffel tower. your jaw literally dropped. you frantically grabbed your phone out of your pocket to take a dozen pictures of the magnificent view. your boss must’ve bribed someone to buy this apartment— because you could’ve only dreamed about being able to see the eiffel tower so close. you noticed your instagram username.. me.in.nagoya but now you changed it to me.in.paris. you turned around, not having noticed it till now.. but damn, whoever this man was, he was undoubtedly the most charming person you’ve seen.. ‘’my name’s gojo.’’ he looks at you in a way that makes you clench your thighs together. his grin drops in a confused stare. ‘’is there something, princess?’’ he asks. ‘’nothing.. but..’’ you tug his shirt, giving him a clear and bold sign on what you wanted. his eyes glanced up and down, raising an eyebrow. ‘’ah.. i dunno~ we just met!’’ he said in a teasing manner, but you knew he was somewhat serious. ‘’pleaseeee?’’ safe to say your begging did not help. you walked up to the office with a ridiculous suit, even though french people may be fashionable.. you really stood out (in a bad way). you noticed people looking at you in a questionable manner. you hurried to your personal cubicle that was in the corner of the huge building. a woman with a brown bob walked up to you, her look was so serious— and even intimidating. ‘’madam? as-tu besoin de quelque chose?’’ what? you didn’t understand even a bit of french, sure, maybe oui and bonjour but other than that you were clueless. the look on your face said everything. ‘’ah.. no french? pas un autre touriste stupide…’’ stupide? sure, you didn’t know french, but stupide probably meant stupid. and touriste.. tourist.. wait, she was basically calling you a stupid tourist. tumblr isn't letting me write more than this.

[love-kurdt]

I looooove your Mike in timt his characterization is really interesting and fun to read, i've read timt and i'm kinda waiting for you to complete the entire universe so I can read everything in one go so I don't get too lost (no pressure tho take your time!!). I love his rant with the guy in that store that he stops by when travelling to see Will lol just venting about his life to a stranger like a normal person <3

hey anon! i’m so glad u love the timt universe so far! and yes!! the cashier scene is one of my favorites too, and was definitely one of my favorite parts to record in the audiobook.

as far as updates go, i’m so sorry i’ve been so slow with them; i’m kind of trying to get through my last semester at school right now, and i’m not gonna lie, i’m really struggling academically as well as with a lot of mental health issues (i lost my grandma a few months back— we were really close— and the grief has been a fucking monster).

i was having such a hard time with writing in will’s pov for the longest time but now i’ve finally gained momentum, so now it’s just a matter of getting the story out on paper. and i’m a perfectionist by nature, so it’s taking a little longer than expected.

in terms of DBM, i want all of NTWDT to be out first so all the gaps are filled between mike and will’s stories, so i put it on hold until it’s done. i’m also working on SSCL every day, which plays a pretty significant role in the plot of NTWDT. so you can probably see my dilemma with trying to fit all the puzzle pieces together without spoiling major plot points.

which is why i’ve resorted to making audios and edits and playlists and stuff to keep myself active on here and to not fall into a writers block slump like i had previously been in.

i promise you that i’m working as fast as i can and want the rest of the series out just as much as y’all do. i’m not, like, purposefully withholding it from y’all or anything like that. i’m genuinely trying my best. it’s actually my last spring break ever, so i might try and knock out NTWDT1 if i can find it in myself. pls don’t hold me to it but y’all might be pleasantly surprised lmao

[firjii]

some rando: you should check out these podcast series, I looooove them and so will you omg they're so good!!!!

me, a dumbass with APD who never figured out how to fully enjoy audio-only spoken content and sometimes doesn't even cognitively understand it: heh yeah we sure are living in a golden era

[lets-share-neen]

Yay, my package from pop arrived today (fast delivery as always btw, I love them~) and I now got the newest episodes of my top 3 favourite audio dramas!

Point Whitmark 42 is probably the one I look forward to the most! I am their biggest fan since many, many years and rumour has it that this could be the last one, so I will treasure it even more than usually! I just love these boys so so much and the episode nearly sounds like we will get a similar vibe to episode 1 and also some nods to other older episodes and audio dramas itself!

Die drei ??? 200 is also a must. I have read the books this time again beforehand so I am curious how this is gonna sound like and play out. The episode is over 5 hours long so I hope they didn’t cut any of my favourite scenes. I love that Peter and Bob solve big parts of this case by themselves again and I am really looking forward to that!

Twilight Mysteries 11 is hopefully better than 10. I looooove this series to death, but 10 was a huge filler episode. The first season is completed after 12 and I am so sad about that… I hope they continue someday, I love these nerds and I need my fix of “eine Mischung aus Akte X, Supernatural und Ghost Busters”.

[asckj1]

hello~! thank you for translating some (which is a lot aksjka) of mdzs audio drama extras! i would like to ask if you could also translate heaven's official blessing and scum villain audio drama if ever there will be aksbak,,

Hello :)

Thank you so much for the appreciation! I’m actually doing the timing, typesetting and encoding of the video + audio for everything that I’m sharing on my tumblr. All the hard work of translating each extra down to the last detail is done by @gravitydefyingtears @risefalcon @gwynhafra86 . Also in addition, Akit0 (from novel updates forums) has been very very kind enough to provide me raws for this awesome audio drama and also one extra and few episodes of the main drama were very kindly shared by @kittykat2010 Without these wonderful people and their constant efforts, sharing any MDZS stuff for me would be impossible! So I send out a VERY BIG thanks to them once again.

And yesyesyesyesyes, I would looooove to sub the audio drama of heaven official’s blessing and scum villain when they come out. Just that with my zero chinese language skills, I would need someone to provide translations for each episode. But, it’s a BIG yes from my side of at all the audio drama for these other two series come out :))

🌸 Happy Tuesday, Bookworms!! 🌸 - Qotd: Do you love audiobooks?? If so, what are some of your favorites?? - I looooove a good audiobook, and I’m always looking for new recommendations. I’ve listened to quite a few new ones recently, including those for *Simon vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda* and *The Upside of Unrequited* by Becky Albertalli, which were great. The audiobooks for *The Illuminae Files* series by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff are amazing, and have a full cast of awesome narrators and has sound effects. The audio for *Ready Player One* is narrated by Wil Wheaton, which is reason enough to listen. My go-to recommendation to those new to the audiobook world would definitely have to be the *Harry Potter* books! Jim Dale does an amazing job of narrating the story, and manages to take the audiobooks to a whole new level. If you haven’t yet listened to any of these audiobooks, you should!! Do you have a favorite audiobook?? Recommend your faves!! - Today on my blog I’m sharing all the reasons why I love audiobooks, and where I usually get them!

I was tagged by: @fara-daze @greedisgreen @lady-sansa-baelish and @janedethr

Goal: tag 9 people to get to know them

Relationship status: Married w/kiddos -- sorry I know you’re all aching to date me, but I’m off the market and rather tied down. Fucking ball and chains give just enough wiggle room to birth children and do the dishes, haha!! 😉😘😝😅

Favorite color: It’s more of color combinations... like I don’t like any one color on it’s own. But when you pair it with another color and it pops, I’m all into that. 

Lipstick or chapstick: Chapstick. I wear makeup usually like twice a year.

Last song: Of my playlist? Which one? Um... well the current last song on the playlist I’m listening to is Hall and Oats -- Out of Touch (You’re out of touch, I’m out of time! But I’m out of my head when you’re not around!) LoL if you can close your eyes and ignore the big 80′s hair and zebra pants, it’s a good song, promise. 

Last song I listened to: The Revivalists -- I Wish I Knew You

Last song I’d like to hear before I die: Super Tramp -- Long Way Home

Last movie: Go -- it was a fucking great movie and is currently the last movie in my movie collection, because children learning the alphabet clearly don’t respect alpha order for movie collections...sigh...

Last movie I saw: Guardians of the Galaxy 2 because I’m always behind on tv/movie watching. I felt adequately betrayed by Kurt Russel, so I continue to have a mild crush on him from childhood for that. 

Last movie I’d want to see: Magnolia -- Omg. I’m not a Tom Cruise fan as a person...I’ve seen too many interviews... But as an actor. Holy Shit. I respect the fuck out of that man’s talent. Magnolia was a goldmine of story lines, character depth. Fuck it was just a great absurd majestic piece of art. I will never forget the opening story. I will never forget Juliana Moore’s breakdown in the pharmacy scene. I will never forget Tom Cruise getting on stage and making my jaw drop by saying, “Respect the cock! And tame the cunt!” I will never forget that awkward as fuck scene with the lonely police officer and the waaaay too loud music. Oh christ, William H. Macy’s scenes, that man is just brilliant. The scene with the parents and the child stars. The frogs... It was just a masterpiece in my opinion. If I am on my deathbed, someone please turn this movie on and point the tv at my bed.  

Top 3 shows: 

Angel -- I love and respect Buffy...but I fucking loooooved Angel -- something about the hotel and then moving into the lions den later. And then the way it ended...holy shit. I will crave more of Angel forever after that ending. (We’ll just totally forget about that one season with the Eve plot...I just pretend that didn’t happen...)

Breaking Bad: I loved this show. It was art to me. The gradual transformation in Walter White... omg Jesse Pinkham. I love you man. 

Call the Midwife: I eat up period dramas like no one’s business. I especially like ones that show the harder truths of life. I think this show gives a good balance and while I’m not racing to the tv whenever a new episode is posted, I have never once ever been disappointed by a single episode I’ve watched. (well, unless I was supposed to be disappointed...cause dramas do sometimes mean to give you disappointment.) So it’s a good solid show that always delivers. 

Top 3 ships: 

Petyr x Sansa: Obviously. 

Drake Vireo x Aisling Grey (The Guardian Series by Katie MacAlister): I will always love this ship, until the day I die. I have all the books and in audio version and will listen to them as I do random chores around my home or on long car rides, repeatedly. I will always love Drake’s annoyingly confident and dominating demeanor and Aisling’s headstrong determination to say screw you man I do what I want, LOL. When I still want more of the ship I hop into the next books in the dragon series and love Gabriel x May’s relationship while I still get to enjoy my glimpses of Drake x Aisling in the background. 

Claire x Jaime (Outlander): I watched the first season of outlander when it came out and instantly bought the book...then I bought the next and the next and the next. And I read all 9 books (which if you’ve seen Diana Gabaldon’s books they are like 900 pages each...) in about 4 months (this was before I created my AO3 account, lol so I had that kind of time to devote between work and kids.) Their passion and devotion for each other over the years, is relationship goals. Neither of them are perfect, they both fuck up, and they are both a wreck without each other.   

I now tag: @pomegranatetemptation @redlektor @urbanhiking @mariehooper @shadowedscribblings @baelishthebae @jonarya786 @boredlikeaboss @playwhatgoeson @ashmole782

Dreampop twinterview with Tupper Lake (1/2)

Memes and Shoegaze

Arena Blanca : Your Twitter bio says : “Memes and shoegaze. in this order”. You funny boy! ;-)

Tupper Lake : Hahaha yeah gotta love them memes!

Arena Blanca : How did you come to music ? What was your first instrument ?

Tupper Lake : My mom and one of my cousins were both really into music so at some point I just got into it too. My dad taught me how to whistle when I was seven, and then I picked up the guitar when I was fifteen.

I met the guys from Slowdive after their killer show in Buenos Aires in 2017… In fact it was Christian Saville who told me I should get a reverb pedal! Super cool people, all of them. I also had a few words with Brian Eno during an inspiring conference he gave in BA in 2016.

“Slowdive’s Christian Saville told me I should get a reverb pedal!”

Arena Blanca : What are your influences ?

Tupper Lake : Someone once told me I sound like Mazzy Star meets The Smiths… Not quite sure I do, but those are two of my favorite bands so I guess there’s something to it!

Arena Blanca : You have influences in pop music, but your music is more complex, it’s nearly jazz, but still dreampop. How many are you in your head? ;-)

Tupper Lake : You can be as many as you want if you have a looper pedal! And I happen to have one :)

Arena Blanca : Your tracks have no name, just numbers. Did you lack inspiration for the naming? ;-)

Tupper Lake : Yeah, I didn’t really know what to name them... And it’s not that the lyrics could have given me a hint either!

Arena Blanca : How and where was this EP recorded ?

Tupper Lake : A friend of a friend was in charge of the recording. I used to go to his place on Saturdays and we’d spend three or four hours recording each time.

Gear and guitar pedals

Arena Blanca : What is your setup for playing and recording ? What guitar pedals do you use ?

Tupper Lake : I used a Korg tuner, Boss CS3, Boss DD7, and MBS Hummingverb for the Tupper Lake EP, all through a clean Vox AC15 amp. The tuner and the compressor are gone now, and I’ve recently added a Boss SD1, a Cluster Heaven and Hell, a Boss RC3, and a Dedalo Tres. My main axe is my good old Squier Stratocaster.

Arena Blanca : Stratocaster rules! What gear do you dream to get ?

Tupper Lake : I’m pretty happy with my pedalboard right now, but I would looooove to get my hands on a Walrus Audio Slö! It just sounds amazing.

#TupperLife

Arena Blanca : What does #tupperlife look like?

Tupper Lake : It’s got quite some reverb and I’m not turning it down anytime soon.

Arena Blanca : Do you have new songs coming?

Tupper Lake : Yeah! Tracks II and IV are part of a series of ten songs that I’ve demoed. I’ve also been writing a lot of folk music for another project of mine, so stay tuned!

Free dowload codes for all!

Arena Blanca : What question do you wish to get asked ?

Tupper Lake : “Can I please have a download code for your EP?” Sure thing! Just RT :)

🌻 Happy Wednesday, Bookworms!! We're halfway through the week! Are you ready to tackle the next few days?? --- Today let's talk about Audiobooks!! Are you a fan?? I looooove a good audiobook, and find myself listening to them more and more lately with my busy schedule. And thanks to the bluetooth headphones I recently gifted myself, listening to audiobooks is even easier than ever! I usually get my audiobooks from the library, which has an awesome selection, and offers digital services like Overdrive and Hoopla. But, I also just started a trial of Audible, many thanks to @loriimagination who told me how awesome it is, and I'm looking forward to using it as well. So yeah, I kinda love audiobooks. 🤓🎧 --- I've listened to the audio for all the books pictured above, and they're all so good!! I'm currently listening to the *Harry Potter* series on audio, and they are definitely some of my faves. ☺️ If you haven't listened to them before, do check them out!! --- 📚 Favorite Audiobooks. #AlltheBooksAugust 📚 Bookish Flip. #AugustMaiden 📚 Divination, Potions, Charms, or Transfiguration? #watermelanerdsaugust Transfiguration!! 📚 Bookstagrammers You Love. #auginbooks17 --- 🎧 Do you listen to audiobooks?? 🎧 What's your favorite audiobook to listen to?? --- #bookphotochallenge #Bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookstagramchallenge #yabooks #summerreading #audiobook
