Today is definitely a #stabbymonday ⚔️ 🖤 ⚔️ I didn’t sleep very well, so I woke up with a MASSIVE headache. Which is fitting because it’s Monday and now I’m REALLY in the mood to #stabstabstab as my official/unofficial candle mascot is ordering me too. I also have to do laundry which doesn’t help the stabbing situation... ⚔️ 🖤 ⚔️ But #stabby feelings aside... Monday also means (trumpets please) that it’s time for #makeoutmarrymurdermonday 🙌🏻 live on my blog, link in my bio. Today, I’ve really done a number on myself by choosing three of my favorite #stabbybooks 🔪 why do I keep doing this to myself?! 😫 hopefully for your entertainment! ⚔️ 🖤 ⚔️ First QOTD: play the game with me!!! Who do you #makeout #marry #murder today??? Second QOTD: favorite stabby book???

If you had to choose a vampire to turn you, who would it be??? ☠️ Hands down, either Pam or Eric. Preferably Eric, but I’d chill with Pam for eternity too. I would NOT want Lestat to turn me. He seems a bit too high maintenance for me. Maybe Armand 🤔 but ONLY if Pam and Eric were unavailable. Also, I’d wait for them to decide to turn me, if timing was an issue. I mean, what’s a few years when we have forever?! ☠️ It’s nearly October and I couldn’t resist celebrating a little early! We’re vamping it up on today’s #makeoutmarrymurdermonday and throwing some wooden stakes around the coffin. Dangerous, I know 😂 come see which vampires live and which vampires get turned to dust. There’s also some kissing, if you’re into some undead action. Spoiler alert: I am 😂😂😂 ☠️ Is @bookwnoname doing a #stabbybook rec for this #stabbymonday ??? I guess you’ll have to go check out her post and see!!! ☠️⚔️☠️ https://www.instagram.com/p/BoHVpZzlr5z/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=4a1fcuczpj3b

You’ve been kidnapped!!! The characters from your current read are on their way to rescue you. Who are they and what chance do you stand??? ⚔️ I just started #amberanddusk last night so depending on who rallies, I may have decent odds. I’d really love for Luca and Rina to come to my aid. They don’t have any legacies (power) to help but they seem a much better choice than asking either the Sinisters or Dexters for help 😬😬😬 watch @teenreadsdotcom for my upcoming review!!! ⚔️ Did I fall off the #stabbymonday train or what?! I know. But even ninjas need to lie low sometimes 😂 while this post isn’t quite my usual #stabnanigans post, I do think this trilogy is super appropriate to fit the #stabbybooks tag. I mean, they have swords on the spines!!! 🗡⚔️🗡 And this series has one of my all-time favorite quotes! “Isn’t that what stories do, make real things fake and fake things real?” 🥰 I love this gorgeous keychain that @fairyloot sent. It’s stunning! And looks so perfect hanging off the spines on my shelf. Now, I’m off to practice my sword skills. (Or do some writing, but sword skills so much better 😂) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrNvTS4HvrY/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1iqexqcqjy9oa

Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who’s the #stabbiest one of all??? 🖤 Was that the question of the day? Maybe. Alright fine, tell me what classic you’d love to murder!!! 🖤 We all have that one classic that we HATED!!! Whether it was because we were forced to endure reading it, or had to analyze it to the point of stabbing our eyes out, or just plain hated it, we all have that horror story. For me, that classic is Moby Dick. I hated that book. It took me AGES to get through it. I was bored to tears and to this day, can barely remember most of it, since I’m pretty sure I blacked out and repressed the entire ordeal. It was that traumatic for me 😂 needless to say, I’d love to murder that book. Or enjoy some dark retellings. Or maybe not. I don’t know, I’m still fairly traumatized. 🖤 When it comes to dark retellings, generally the rule is the darker the better. Especially when the original is generally viewed as super cheerful. On today’s, #makeoutmarrymurdermonday I’ve taken some of my fave dark side classics to subject to the #stabnanigans mayhem. It is #stabbymonday and these #stabbybooks are the #stabbiest! Perfect for these spooky October vibes. 🖤 Speaking of #stabby please tell me you saw @bookwnoname stabby post today! Complete with stabbing props and girls who definitely know how to sharpen their own knives. Just go follow her already!!!

🎶 It’s just another stabby Monday 🎶 I may have taken a few liberties with those lyrics ⚔️ It’s our last day on the beach and we don’t want to go home. I’m considering googling squatter rights and saying to hell with the consequences 😂 kidding. Or am I 🤔 I’ll tell you one thing, I could definitely get used to this life! ⚔️ I did manage to post on my blog #makeoutmarrymurdermonday and since beach life is my fantasy, I decided to match up some pretty dreamy fantasy books for our game today. Go check it out, and tell me who you would choose! ⚔️ And don’t forget to go by @bookwnoname for her own#stabbybooks recommendation! It’s a favorite of both her and her fictional daughter, so you know it’s a good one 😂😂😂 (at Oceanside, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnkAD_XHyGW/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=16l2009tsvmcd

Do you have a favorite retelling??? What fairy tale do you wish had more retellings??? 📚 It’s a very Monday Monday. It isn’t terrible, but everything just feels SO Monday today!!! It’s good that I’ve added some standby fun to my week, because these posts are probably the only things that make Monday bearable. 📚 Today, for #makeoutmarrymurdermonday I went with a dark retelling theme. Strings is a dystopian take on Pinocchio which, not only is unique and original, but really well done! I love the dystopian worlds that @davidestesbooks creates. And if you love deliciously dark and devious, meet @authorchristinahenry her writing gives my black heart all the quivers!!! I also really liked the unique spin in Hunted. There are a lot of beauty and the beast stories out there, so finding one that feels different always feels like a win! Come see who gets what on my blog! Link in my bio. 📚 I’m off to see if @bookwnoname has posted her #stabbybooks recommendation for the day! If you don’t follow her, what are you even doing with your life??? https://www.instagram.com/p/Bm_eBkpFcBK/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=i78x8pl2k68

If you were transported into a video game, what game would you want to be in??? 🕹 It’s been so long since I’ve played any video games, but I remember I used to love Ratchet and Clank. Is that around anymore?! I wouldn’t mind roaming around the oasis from Ready Player One. That world sounded pretty cool. 🕹 Speaking of virtual worlds, this week our #stabnanigans are all taking place virtually!!! We all need an escape from Monday, and diving into a completely different reality is the most extreme way to escape, for sure!!! I tried to make a joystick with the books plugged in, but I’m not sure it’s obvious 🤔 anyway, these books manage to be #stabby in their own way! Find out who gets smooched, who gets hitched, and who loses a life on my blog! And tell me who you would choose!!! 🕹 My #murder senses are tingling in anticipation of @bookwnoname #stabbybooks recommendation today! Every since we started #stabbymonday I have to admit, Monday’s suddenly don’t feel *quite* so bad. Funny what a little stabbing can do 🤣🤣🤣 (at ＶＩＲＴＵＡＬ ＰＬＡＺＡ) https://www.instagram.com/p/BmbNfxslEY0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=v2pnwmd8nmd7

You’re packing for your trip to space. What five things do you absolutely have to take with you??? 🚀 Definitely have to take my dogs, a kindle with as many books as it can hold, never ending Burt’s bees chapstick, all the coffee, and my iPod! 🚀 Have you guys read #hullmetalgirls yet??? Such a fantastic book!!! I loved everything about it. Amazing diversity! Action! Adventure! And holy spaceship did the opening chapters give me some seriously weird dreams!!! Reading about surgical procedures turning humans into machines was intense! I devoured this book and then immediately talked to @bookwnoname about all things Hullmetal!!! Look for my review on @teenreadsdotcom 📚 if you love science fiction and dystopian you’ll love this book! You won’t regret adding it to your #TBR 🚀 📚 🚀 📚 🚀 #bookstagram #stabbybooks #ilovebooks #booklove #booklife #yalit #yalovin #ireadya #yabooks #bookography #bookcommunity #booktribe #bookaddict #jenabrownwrites #booknerdfun #bookstagrammer #bookart #yareads #bookstack #mybookfeatures #bookblog #booktower #dystopian #sciencefiction #sciencefictionismyaddiction #teenreads #teenreadsdotcom #ipreview @preview.app

Would you rather get $5 for every song you sang in public OR $50 for every stranger you kiss??? ⚔️ It’s Friday!!!! I’ve actually had a pretty good week so I’m hoping this is the new trend! Singing in public has never really been an issue for me. Honestly, I feel like the world would be a better place if we all just burst out in song to express our feelings 😂 so I’m going with that option. $5 a song doesn’t seem like a bad deal. As long as no one tries to kiss me 😳 ⚔️ I decided to try and recreate the book cover for #furyborn 👑🔥⚔️ I was actually really happy how this one turned out! I wish I had thought of this when we were reading for @hollyslittlebookreviews #grishabuddyread in June! Oh well. Good ideas come when they come. I’m a bit behind on reviews, aren’t we all, but hope to have this one up this weekend!!! ⚔️ 🖤 ⚔️ 🖤 ⚔️ #bookstagram #stabbybooks #ilovebooks #booklife #yalit #yalovin #ireadya #yabooks #bookography #bookcommunity #booktribe #jenabrownwrites #booknerdfun #bookstagrammer #bookart #bookstack #bookbabe #booknerd #mybookfeatures #booknerdigans #booklove #bookaddict #yareads #buddyread #bookclub #coverlove #getbooklit #fiercereads

Would you rather be part of a pirate crew OR captain of a pirate ship??? ⚔️ I’d totally be a captain! ⚔️ like anyone is surprised 😂 ⚔️ It’s Tuesday, so you know what that means!!! Yup, it’s #tuesdayswithjena and I’ve constructed this #pirateship #bookboat because my chat today is with the amazing Cam from @beaconbookbox ⚔️ I met Cam and his dad at #bookcon and knew I had to feature them on my blog! Go check out my post and you’ll all be swooning too!!! This glorious ship is in honor of their August box, Buccaneers and Bandits, which, honestly, feels designed for me.

Would you rather your shirts be always two sizes too big or one size too small? ⚔️ It’s another hot, sunny, Monday and I woke up with a headache so I’m feeling extra stabby today! I couldn’t think of anything that would make me feel stabbier than ill fitting clothing. I guess I’d have to go with too big, because I would seriously murder everyone if my clothes were always too small. Uncomfortable much??? ⚔️ At least I’m back in track with the Monday #stabnanigans and managed to choose some pretty #stabbybooks for today’s #makeoutmarrymurdermonday post! I loved all of these, so murdering one made my black heart hurt. Just a little. Have you guys read any? Who would you make out, marry, or murder? ⚔️ Before you go! Are you following @bookwnoname yet??? Be sure to pop over and check out her stabby recommendation today! I’m promise, you will have zero regrets!

What’s your favorite campfire snack??? 🔥 There’s something about reading horror in the summer that just feels so right to me. Maybe it’s years of camping and scary stories by the fire. Maybe it’s because you’re out more at night, so your imagination takes off. Maybe it’s because all the scary stories take place on hot summer nights.... 🔥 I started #campfire by @shawnsarles last night and oh my creepy!!! The stories they tell around the fire are their own chapters so you feel fully submersed IN each story! I am feeling all the dread building because things are about to go very very wrong. Be careful what stories you tell around the fire. They may come true 😱😱😱 so excited to be reviewing this for @teenreadsdotcom this month!!! 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 #bookstagram #ilovebooks #booklove #booklife #igbooks #bookblog #stabbybooks #yalit #yalovin #ireadya #yabooks #bookography #bookcommunity #booktribe #bookaddict #bookaddiction #bookobsessed #bookobsession #jenabrownwrites #bookaholic #bookstagrammer #igreads #yasummerreads #yareads #jimmypattersonbooks #yahorror #ipreview @preview.app

What super power would you want to have??? 🖤 It’s officially July!!! Is it just me, or is this year flying by? I don’t know if they exist but a time turner, or just a pause button would really come in handy. I haven’t gotten much done the past few days, so today is BUSY! Or at least, busier than doing nothing 😂 I’m not convinced I’ll get more than a few things crossed off my list. But, we all have to start somewhere, right?! 🖤 Is anyone else joining @sammaybereading for her #theboneseason #readalong this month??? Go give her a follow and find her post for all the deets!

Would you rather be loved by all or feared by all??? ⚔️ Huge thank you to #RockstarBookTours and @delacortepress for sending me this stunning copy!!! Stop by my blog for my full review, PLUS the chance to win a finished copy!!! Link in my bio. 🔥 I know. I just posted #nowirise last night. But guys, I DEVOURED this book. I could not stop reading!!! If you thought the first two books were intense, full of heartbreak, betrayal, and murder, then buckle up! Because things are definitely increasing a notch or two thousand!!! ⚔️ I don’t really know where to begin, and don’t want to give any spoilers, so let’s just say. You will cheer, and shout in anguish, and hold your breath for fear. Lada brings EVERYTHING out in her fight for Wallachia, and nothing, no one will stand in her way. But this isn’t simply a tale of violence and war. Radu and Lada have to find who they are, who they want to be, who they’re willing to be, and what they’re willing to do in order to become those people. As they face each other, the question looms: who will live? And who will die? ⚔️ 🔥 ⚔️ 🔥 ⚔️ #bookstagram #booklife #bloglife #blogtour #booktour #brightweburn #andidarken #yalit #ireadya #yalovin #yabooks #ilovebooks #booktribe #bookblog #bookcommunity #bookstagrammer #bookstagramfeature #bookstagramallstar #jenabrownwrites #booklove #igbooks #igreads #bookobsession #bookobsessed #stabbybooks #ipreview @preview.app

Would you rather be crowned but have a short reign, or be a peasant but have a long life? ⚔️ Holy daggers!!! I finished #nowirise last night and THAT ENDING!!! 😱⚔️😱 I fully expected Lada Dracul to up her savage game but this! THIS!!! Such an amazing journey for both Lada and Radu, where they have to face bitter truths about themselves and the people they love. How much will they sacrifice to have the things they want? And will it ever be enough? ⚔️ My black hearted lovelies!!! Lada is fierce and uncompromising and I love her for it!!! Even though he is completely opposite his sister, I also love sweet Radu. Who makes his choices with his heart. Even though each one rips it broken a tiny tear at a time. The mistakes they make, the emotions, it all feels so human, that I was completely swept into their saga. I am DYING to finish the third and last, #brightweburn 🔥 review for Now I Rise live on my blog, link in my bio! ⚔️ 🖤 ⚔️ 🖤 ⚔️ #bookstagram #stabbybooks #stabstabstab #andidarken #shelfie #delacortepress #ireadya #igreads #yabooks #yalit #yalovin #epicreads #booklife #booklove #bookcommunity #bookstagrammer #bookstagramallstar #bookstagramfeature #jenabrownwrites #bookaddict #bookaholic #bookobsessed #bookobsession #bookaddiction #ilovebooks #igbooks #ipreview @preview.app

What weapon would you create if you had a substance like Nyxia??? ⚔️ Lets all be honest here. In my hands Nyxia would probably turn into something stabby. I mean. We all know it right?! Maybe an armor shell made of a million tiny sharp projectiles that could fly into any direction and kill by a thousand tiny cuts 😂 or wolverine claws. So many possibilities! I don’t know if I’d choose a sword though. Daggers are more likely. I’m too small I think. I need weapons that let me use my size to my advantage. I’m not convinced a sword would be that weapon 🤔 it’s totally normal to spend a Tuesday morning contemplating these things. Right?! RIGHT??!!?! ⚔️ If you guys haven’t read #Nyxia yet, what have you even been doing with your lives??? Reading. I know. But, come on!!! This series is intense, super smart, diverse science fiction with heart. @reintgen has a unique voice that will pull you in and not let go. I promise. And the second book #nyxiaunleashed comes out today!!! So you can totally binge and then join me in dying for the final book!!! It’s going to be so good, I just know it!!!!! ⚔️ 🖤 ⚔️ 🖤 ⚔️ #bookstagram #stabbybooks #ilovebooks #booklove #booklife #igbooks #bookblog #ireadya #yabooks #bookography #bookcommunity #booktribe #bookaddict #bookaddiction #bookobsessed #bookobsession #jenabrownwrites #bookaholic #bookstagrammer #igreads #summerreads #coverlove #bookart #yalit #yalovin #yareads #ipreview @preview.app
