🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈 HAPPY PRIDE!!! sorry for the radio silence/random posts 😬 I’m so busy and my mental health is all over the place, BUT AT LEAST THERE ARE BOOKS! I decided to make my version of the poc pride flag book collage, after seeing Bookish’s attempt at one; that one included some questionable choices for LGBTQ+ rep (Harry Potter?????? Queen of Shadows??????????). they reached out to me and said the design was a few years old, explaining why books like GOPAF were left out; they’ll put out a new one soon, which is promising! nevertheless, I’m v much proud of what I’ve made, with at least half of the books written by LGBTQ+ authors, ALL with *explicit* LGBTQ+ rep. so. HAPPY PRIDE FROM THIS BI DISASTER! 💗💜💙 #bookstagram #lgbtbooks #happypride🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈 HAPPY PRIDE!!! sorry for the radio silence/random posts 😬 I’m so busy and my mental health is all over the place, BUT AT LEAST THERE ARE BOOKS!

🌈🌈🌈 it’s day 5 of the #bloodwitchbookstagram challenge, and I’ve been lowkey participating on twitter (@/samanthaistan). I loved how well this picture turned out that I had to share it on here. 🌈 the prompt is #threadwitch: rainbow books, representing how threadwitches see the colorful threads that bring us together (or tear us apart). 🌈 if you haven’t read the Witchlands series, then what are you waiting for??? it is one of my favorite series, and I CANNOT WAIT for BLOODWITCH! #bookstagram #books #yabooks #rainbowbooks🌈🌈🌈 it’s day 5 of the #bloodwitchbookstagram challenge, and I’ve been lowkey participating on twitter (@/samanthaistan).

🔥🔥🔥 as you can see, I’m kinda in love with GIRLS OF PAPER AND FIRE by @girlinthelens. this story is so important to me; as I wrote in my full review, (link in the bio!) GIRLS is like a beacon of light in the darkness. ✨ I absolutely love the @fairyloot edition of the book with the pride colors and the pink sprayed edges! the whole October box was one of my favorites 💕 you can watch my unboxing in my highlights! ✨ have you read GIRLS yet? let me know if you have! CW: sexual assault, trauma, emotional abuse (please let me know if I’m missing any) #bookstagram #girlsofpaperandfire #gopaf #yabooks🔥🔥🔥 as you can see, I’m kinda in love with GIRLS OF PAPER AND FIRE by @girlinthelens. this story is so important to me; as I wrote in my full review, (link in the bio!)

🍂 have I talked about how much I love the UK paperback covers of the Witchlands series? I absolutely LOVE the US covers, but there’s something so special about the UK covers. they tie in parts of what makes this series so magical. anyway, I could talk about my love for the Witchlands all day. 🍂 if you want some good good Witchlands content on twitter, check out @ incorrectwlands! I run it, but due to my hilariously busy schedule, it’s mainly Witchlander-submitted quotes right now. hopefully once NaNo is over and my workload at my jobs lightens up, I can fully commit to spreading the word of the Witchlands 💕 #bookstagram #yabooks #witchlands #thewitchlands #windwitch #truthwitch #bloodwitch🍂 have I talked about how much I love the UK paperback covers of the Witchlands series?

🎶🎶🎶 for anyone who didn’t see my (nearly incomprehensible) reaction to receiving this GORGEOUS bookmail on my insta stories yesterday, here it is in all its glory! 🎶 I am so unbelievably excited to read FOR A MUSE OF FIRE by Heidi Heilig! from the cover to the premise to the snippets of sheet music Heidi posted on twitter, September can’t come soon enough!!! 🎶 fun fact: I’ve been playing the piano for 18 years (!!!) and these are a few of the pieces I’m currently working on. one is the main theme from Pride and Prejudice (2005), one of my favorite P&P adaptations. #bookstagram #books #yalit #foramuseoffire🎶🎶🎶 for anyone who didn’t see my (nearly incomprehensible) reaction to receiving this GORGEOUS bookmail on my insta stories yesterday, here it is in all its glory! 🎶 I am so unbelievably excited to read FOR A MUSE OF FIRE by Heidi Heilig! from the cover to the premise to the snippets of sheet music Heidi posted on twitter, September can’t come soon enough!!! 🎶 fun fact: I’ve been playing the piano for 18 years (!!!) and these are a few of the pieces I’m currently working on. one is the main theme from Pride and Prejudice (2005), one of my favorite P&P adaptations. #bookstagram #books #yalit #foramuseoffire
