Last day of #tometopplechallenge ! Some potential tomes for next round. And just realising of those pictured - they're actually all #secondhand finds. This round helped me out of a reading slump and what I read gets added to my favourites of the year, so will look forward to the next round. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bookstagram #tbr #flatlay #bookworm #booknerdigans #tometopple #bookstack #bookspines #bookish #bibliophile #booksbooksbooks
Day 13 Tome & Snacks for #tometopplechallenge . Can you spot the chocolate coins among the old metal ones? Hint they are much shinier and handily match these glimmering covers. The chocolate coins thankfully also less likely to break teeth. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Again this challenge just has me confronting all these shelves of favourites that I'd love to get around to rereading next year. But in January alone I know there is bunch of new releases for which I'm pretty hyped. The reader dilemma is real. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bookstagram #shelfie #bookshelf #coins #bookworm #booknerdigans #homesweethome #tometopple #bookish #igreads #pursuepretty #aquietstyle #hygge #thehappynow #livemoremagic #bibliophile #distractionsandinspirations #ilovemyhome #myhyggehome #interiordetails
Day 12 of #tometopplechallenge is bookmark. Turns out I enjoy bookmarks as decoration as much as finding them useful for reading. Sometimes there seems to be a dozen easily to hand and other times I'm stuck with post-its or whatever junk mail is conveniently near by. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bookmark #tometopple #magic #corkboard #aliceinwonderland #quote #reader #readersofinstagram #bookish #bookstagram #bookworm
Day 11 Favourite tome cover for #tometopplechallenge and again these photo challenges are tempting me to reread. The illustration is just gorgeous. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It's been a few years since I read the Mistborn trilogy and after reading Way of Kings for this readathon its just giving me more reason to revisit those earlier books. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I'm trying to hold out until 2019 though as I had a bit of resolution this year to catch up on new to me reads. And it has mostly paid off with discovery of new favourites. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bookstagram #flatlay #bookish #tometopple #cozy #bookstagrammer #bookworm #booknerdigans #bookcoverlove #reader #reading #booksbooksbooks #bookishfeatures #bookphotography #bibliophile #bookcommunity
Day 10 #tometopplechallenge . Theme is disappointed which I’m interpreting as being disappointed in myself in taking so long to get around to reading these! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Thanks to #tometopple I finally dove into the Way of Kings. 5🌟 Realised I’ve had this on my shelves since day it was released 😬. Clearly was taking my time. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Similarly though I’ve got a *few* Terry Pratchetts now I resisted anyone telling me I’d love them for about ten years. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bookstagram #bookshelf #bibliophile #bookstack #bookstagrammer #bookrecommendations #reading #reader #shelfie #shelfiesunday
Day 9 Tomes & Tea(lights) for #tometopplechallenge because in betrayal of both my #bookish nature and as a Scot, I don't actually drink tea. I thought about staging a photo with a mug of water or soy milk but didn't feel it quite fit the atmosphere suggested by today's prompt. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bookstagram #candles #fairylights #bookshelf #cozy #homesweethome #tometopple #tistheseason #homestyle #tealightholder #bookstagrammer #hygge
Day 8 #tometopplechallenge a book recommended to you. Red Sister wasn't exactly a recommendation. It's a gift from my Uncle last Christmas. More his opportunity to make the near pun ( redheaded niece ). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ But I'd also been holding out against my best friend's recommendation on the author for previous series. Clearly I'm on board for more Red Sister books, but maybe will also have to give those original recommendations a go. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bookstagram #bookspines #bookshelf #tometopple #bookish #bookworm #booknerdigans #fantasybooks #bookphotography #bibliophile #booksbooksbooks
Day 7 #tometopplechallenge is favourite tome quote. "It's like everyone tells a story about themselves inside their own head. Always. All the time. That story makes you what you are. We build ourselves out of that story." - Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bookstagram #bookquotes #tometopple #story #quote #flatlay #bookworm #reading #book #bookphotography #page #bookish #stories
Day 6 #tometopplechallenge a Tower of Tomes 📚. This #readathon has done great in fixing the recent reading slump. I've finished Vengeful and am now half way through Way of Kings ( which surely should count as two tomes at over 1000pgs). The only question is if I do get to start a third book, will I enjoy it as much as I have these two? Here's hoping the reading luck holds out. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bookstagram #bookstack #amreading #tometopple #tometopplereadathron #booksbooksbooks #booknerdigans #homesweethome #bookworm
Day 5 #tometoppechallenge tomes full of beloved tropes. So... Here be dragons. Magical creatures. Quests. Heroes in training. I do love a good trope and even better if it's hid within an original story. Gotta say, these photo themes just keep making me want to reread all the things. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #booksbooksbooks #tometopple #fantasybooks #bookish #bookworm #shelfie #bookshelf #bookshelvesofinstagram #homesweethome #homestyle #pastel #bibliophile #bookstagramer #booknerdigans
Day 4 #tometopplechallenge . First time participating so for previously toppled tomes I submit a general #shelfie . The Wheel of Time books are calling to me for a series reread, ever since I heard the amazon tv adaptation news. Might actually be grateful if it takes a while to make it to screen though, 'cause it would take me most of 2019 to get through the reread on top of books I'm already anticipating next year. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bookstagram #tometopple #bookshelves #fantasybookseries #fantasybooks #bibliophile #bookishlove #bookaholic #bookshelf #bookworm #allthebooks #readersofinstagram
Day 3 is #seasonalvibes for #tometopplechallenge and first year I've embraced Christmas decor this early. My family does normally hold out for December. Adding these lights and little sprig of tinsel to the bookshelves felt right though. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Didn't have any more Christmas books to use here but I felt the #fairytales fit the time of year. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bookstagram #bibliophile #rainbowshelves #secondhandbooks #tometopple #shelfiesunday #bookish #homestyle #homesweethome
