I am so excited for this mini challenge! I absolutely LOVE looking at book photographs, it’s definitely the main reason why I am on Instagram so much!! I am a bit late because I started organizing my books and playing around before I took pictures… and well nearly 2 hours were consumed by that haha. Also, I’m not the greatest photographer, so I just took these ones with my phone today. I’m still learning 🙂
My Bookshelves
The first picture is my read books, and the second picture is my TBR shelf. I actually had to relocate some of my TBR to the bigger shelves today because there is too many of them (*hides*) so they are also on the bottom shelves over to the owl bookend. On the top left, I have all my read non-fiction, and next to that is my Harry Potter things 🙂 I have my other Harry Potter books at my parents house in Nova Scotia, so I am slowly re-buying them for my collection here!
Some of My All-time Favorites
These are some of my all-time favorite reads! I had a hard time narrowing it done because I have a million favorites, but these are the favorites of the favorites!!!
Currently Reading
I always have a ton of books on the go so here is what I’m currently switching between! I am also listening to Bloodlines on audio, but I couldn’t take a picture of that because it’s on my phone 🙂
Most Treasured
I met Deborah Harkness earlier this year and I can say that I can’t imagine anything else book related topping this! EEK!
Beautiful Covers
These are two of my favorite book covers that I own. I am obsessed with all things peacocks and AHHH. I love the cover for Beautiful Oblivion. The cover for Talon is spectacular. The texture of the scales… OMG. I’m currently on the hunt for book holders that I can display these two outwards (and a few other favs) because they are just too pretty to be sandwiched!
Bookish Favorites
These are some of my favorite bookish things, my two favorite bookmarks, and my two favorite bookends. I collect all things Owls and ceramic animals so the combination had my screeching in the store when I seen this! I also love Ampersand’s so I couldn’t resist picking up this ornament which I use as a bookend. I love Jack & Sally, and Brave (she’s my favorite Disney princess other than Belle) so these are my most used bookmarks of the bunch!
All done! What did you take pictures of?!
Do you have Instagram?! If you’re interested in following me (for more pictures of books and cats haha), here I am!
Woop! You’re currently reading two of my favorite books (Heir of Fire and Snow Like Ashes), so I hope you enjoy the crap out of them. Your bookshelves are crazy amazing. What I would do for some like those *drools a little*
Thanks Mariah 🙂 At our old apartment I didn’t have shelves so my boyfriend agreed when me moved to this condo that the second room could be my bookroom! <3
I’m really enjoying Snow Like Ashes and I’m SURE I will loooove Heir of Fire, because yanno… it’s Heir of Fire 😛
I really want to own a hardcover of Talon, I think the cover is soo pretty! I cannot wait for rogue! Love the bookshelves 🙂
Ashley @ The Quiet Concert
Thanks Ashley 🙂 I actually haven’t read Talon yet but it sounds amazing so hopefully I will get to it sometime before Rogue comes out lol. The cover for Rogue looks equally gorgeous!!!
I love it when people have a separate bookshelf for their TBR pile books. It must be so handy to have them all in one place 😀 I must get a copy from Code name verity, I’ve heard a lot of other bloggers talk about it and it sounds good. I love the spine from The assassin’s blade & it’s an amazing book. Thanks for sharing your collection 😀
I always did too Mel, so when we moved I knew that it was definitely something I wanted to incorporate when I reorganized. It’s working out quite nicely although I must admit, it’s sometimes sad that my series are separated haha.
I highly recommend CNV, it’s amazing! I cried a lot when I read it but it’s such a fantastic read.
The entire Throne of Glass series is so beautiful! I’m so glad that they didn’t stick with the girls face for the covers, I think the illustrated Celaena’s are so much more beautiful and way more like how I picture her 😛
Love your bookshelves, they are amazing! I really need to get Heir of Fire so that I can get caught up 🙂
Thanks Christy!!
I’m only just starting it, so I’m also behind 🙂 I’m just happy that I will be able to read the fourth book with everyone!!
Oh I love that owl! So cute! And that’s awesome you have a separate read and TBR shelf! Sadly, I have not read about 95% of my own bookshelf, so I couldn’t do that, LOL.
Yay for Heir of Fire! Wow, I can’t read that many books at once so I’m jealous! I couldn’t keep track! 😀
Yay, Lauren, I loved seeing your book collection (and I love that you spent 2 hours organizing. When I first moved to the new apartment, I spent about 2 hours organizing my books on the shelf. Priorities. We have them.) LOVED seeing Dark Lover and The Assassin’s Blade among your favorites, and yay for reading Heir of Fire!
OH, yea another Vampire academy person. My all time fave book.
[…] Books. I didn’t post for all of the challenges, but I did have my Introduction, posted my bookish snapshots and my picks for ‘High Five’! It was such a fun event and I discovered a lot of awesome […]
