I’m a big advocate of being picky with the condition of books you’re buying, ESPECIALLY if you’re paying full price. If I see a book I want in Waterstones but it has a dent/fold/a tiny scratch on the cover or edges, I’m not getting it 😆

@mrsbettysbooks I would say it’s a deep DEEP hole 😆 but definitely a very wallet friendly one in the long term!

My partner is treating me to The Caretaker this weekend 📚 I have a list of a few other books that I’m interested in, and I only want to get ONE MORE. This is my list - which would you recommend I pick? (Ignore the prices, they’re for my own reference)

@Chinonsolomon For some reason my attention span has been brilliant this month! I read before work, at lunch, after work, and before bed!

May has been an INSANE reading month for me 🙂‍↕️📚 Not only have I read a ton of books, I’ve also read LONG books which I’m normally intimidated by. Roll on June!

@colenook Pagebound is my favourite!

My OWN pictures are being flagged as AI on some platforms because I use Canva’s ‘select’ tool to edit the foreground and background 😢 I’m guessing that tool is some sort of AI because it detects what the background/foreground is?

@grveyardshifts @wrenikari OMG I AM OBSESSED WITH THIS SHELF

To distract myself from this horrendous, disgusting heat, I’ve decided to watch The Visit on Netflix for the third time. It’s an amazing film. Highly recommended!

How am I meant to live my cosy dark academia life when it’s 32 degrees celcius
