Bookish Item | What’s On My TBR Cart
If you read my Royal Update you know I moved this week. And that new apartment is very, very small. So there isn’t that much room for my books haha. And with not much I mean I only have my TBR Cart with me haha. So I had to decide which books I would take with me. I can easily swap them out at my parents place, who live close by. But these are the books I actually have with me. Let’s take a look! Continue reading “Bookish Item | What’s On My TBR Cart”
Bookish Item| Last Year I Was Reading #1
Lately it’s harder finding tags to do that I want to do at the moment, so when I saw this post I haven’t seen before I knew I needed to give it a go. I discovered Last Year I Was Reading on Cozy with Books. This meme was originally created by Reading Maria and started off on Instagram! Let’s check out what this is all about an what I was reading last year!
Can’t Wait Wednesday| White Smoke – Tiffany D. Jackson
We wanted to do another bookish meme on Wednesday and after doing Can’t Wait Wednesday a few times we decided that would be a fun one to bring around more often! About twice a month you’ll see this meme on our blog.
Can’t-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Wishful Endings, to spotlight and discuss the books we’re excited about that we have yet to read. Generally they’re books that have yet to be released. It’s based on Waiting on Wednesday, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine.

TTT #184 | Books with Nature on the Cover
We have been having fun with Top Ten Tuesday, so we decided we will do one every week. This bookish meme was hosted by The Broke and the Bookish, and has been going since June 2010! Since January 2018 Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl.
This week’s topic is books with nature on the cover. It took me a while to compile a list, as I looked on my shelves to find the best covers for this. Nature is a pretty broad term in my opinion so I included all kinds of covers haha. So in the end this is what I came up with, let’s jump in!

5 On My TBR| Fae/Faeries
We already try keeping track of our TBR in different ways, but it’s also fun to look at them in themes. That’s one of the reasons why the bookish meme 5 On My TBR is so much fun. This bookish meme is hosted by E from Local Bee Hunter’s Nook. This week’s prompt is Fae/Faeries. I’m sure I have a few book on my TBR that fit this prompt. Let’s take a look!
