A colorful #shelfie for your Monday ✨ I haven’t had much time to read lately so I don’t have much to update y’all about on that front! But I want to read vicariously through all of you—what are you currently reading?⁣
⁣
[ID: three tall, white bookshelves standing up against a wall next to each other. The bookshelves are full of colorful spines as well as other fun bookish items such as a mason jar full of pencils, a bookish mug, etc.]

Happy pub day to DUKE, ACTUALLY by @holymolyjennyh

Happy pub day to DUKE, ACTUALLY by @holymolyjennyholi and AN HEIRESS’S GUIDE TO DECEPTION AND DESIRE by @mandacollinsauthor ✨ thank you to the tagged publishers for the gifted copies!⁣
⁣
[ID: I’m holding up copies of Duke, Actually, and An Heiress’s Guide to Deception and Desire in front of my colorful gallery wall in my living room. A gray living room couch with a pink throw blanket is also in the background, slightly out of focus. The second photo is similar to the first one except it showcases just the spines, rather than part of the covers of the books too]

The shelves at @thirdplacebooks Ravenna are *chef’s kiss* 🤌🏻 ⁣
⁣
[ID: three photos of the fully stocked, light wood bookshelves at Third Place Books Ravenna, an indie bookstore in Seattle, which has a cozy and lovely vibe. The shelves have large posters of various book covers above them]

I just started HUNGER by Roxane Gay and then hope to make my way through these three. What books are on your TBR this month?⁣
⁣
[ID: I’m holding up three books in front of my wall of bookshelves, wood flooring and a carpet slightly out of focus in the background. The books are (from left to right): The Antisocial Network, Wordslut, and Read This to Get Smarter]

#ad ✨Y’all, I’m obsessed with my new “100 Epic Reads of a Lifetime” #NOVELOGUE poster! ⁣
⁣
This poster is so much fun and such a creative way to keep track of my reading. I’m going to use this poster as the motivation I need to finally read books that have been on my TBR forever (The Color Purple, Dune, The Count of Monte Cristo, etc.) I love how it looks so pretty when unscratched but it also looks so cool when the covers are revealed, and it’s very high quality—the poster is thick and glossy and it comes with a special little scratcher, which I like way more than using a coin, and stickers that you can use to note your ratings for each.⁣
⁣
Check out www.beentheredonethat.shop for the entire collection of scratch-off posters (they have ones for travel, beer, TV shows, YA books, and so many more). They also sell a custom wood frame that’s built to fit all of the #LIFELOGUE posters, which you can find on their website. The wooden frame is really pretty with gold foil lettering that matches the poster beautifully, but the magnets that keep the frame together are on the weaker side and my poster keeps slipping out of it. I haven’t been able to hang up my poster yet using the frame but might try and reinforce it and then try hanging it again!⁣

Thank you, @bnthr_dntht! 💛

My Saturday plans ✨ I’m hoping to finally finish THE EX HEX this weekend. To be honest, I’ve been having a hard time getting through it. It has all of the ingredients for a rom-com that I look for, yet it’s just not hitting home for me. I know a bunch of you have read this one—what did you think?⁣
⁣
What are you reading this weekend?⁣

[ID: I’m sitting on my living room couch with a throw blanket covering my legs in front of me. Dim Sum, a calico cat, is curled up to my left, and I’m holding a copy of The Ex Hex up in front of me]
