QOTD | what television or movie property from your youth would you love to see a bookish sequel to? Growing up as a shy, introverted teen I adored Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I watched it every day after school. I read books set in the buffy universe. I watched the spinoff, Angel. I may or may not have written a lot of fanfiction about the characters. There was something about that show, its message and its characters that spoke to the shy, nerdy gay boy at heart. That's why when I learned that Kiersten White had written a spiritual sequel following the next generation of Watchers and Slayers, I ran right out to pick up this book! I actually read this a couple of months ago. Review to come shortly on my blog! #book #bookstagrammer #bookworm #booknerd #booklover #bookphotography #booksofinstagram #bookish #instabook #reading #bookstagramfeature #buffy #buffythevampireslayer

QOTD | what was the last book you bought? So while I was reading Kings of the Wyld by @thebookofeames, I was enjoying it so thoroughly that I ran put halfway through the book just to buy the sequel. I love the storytelling in the first book. Every single chapter is brimming with magic and humor, and so much heart. It's a very new take on the fantasy genre and a breath of fresh air! Can't wait to dive into this book soon! #book #bookstagrammer #bookworm #booknerd #booklover #bookphotography #booksofinstagram #bookish #instabook #reading #bookstagramfeature #fantasy #kingsofthewyld

QOTD | what's your favorite season? I love the springtime, with the caveat of it's got to be a springtime that's not constantly raining all the time! When the sun is shining and the flowers and trees are in bloom, that's what I love. There's something magical about it! So my next planned read is being put on pause for a day or two so I can engage in my first buddy read since returning from hiatus. I'll be reading Neverworld Wake by @marishapessl with my dear friend and fellow book blogger Chelsea @suspensethrill Chelsea and I always have a load of fun buddy reading together and I can't wait to get back to it! #book #bookstagrammer #bookworm #booknerd #booklover #bookphotography #booksofinstagram #bookish #instabook #reading #bookstagramfeature

QOTD | if you could have any superpower, what would it be? I think for me it would have to be the ability to fly or teleport myself somewhere else at will. I just love the idea of fast travel that a lot of superheroes have. Would certainly be nice to avoid rush hour traffic, that's for sure! Later this month I'll be reading The Emperor's Blades by Brian Staveley! I absolutely adore all the covers of the books in this series. They're so gorgeous - you can tell they went with a professional fantasy artist for them. #book #bookstagrammer #bookworm #booknerd #booklover #bookphotography #booksofinstagram #bookish #instabook #reading #bookblog #bookstagramfeature #fantasy #toberead

QOTD | What is your favorite book to movie/TV show adaptation? I ask because I'm getting pumped to see the BBC/HBO production of Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials series. I've actually never read the books, but I'm going to change that later this month! Can't wait to dive in! #bookstagramfeature #bookstagrammer #bookworm #booknerd #booklover #bookphotography #booksofinstagram #bookish #instabook #bookblog #reading #fantasy #hisdarkmaterials #thegoldencompass

QOTD | how much time do you usually set aside for reading in a day? For me, it's easiest to find the time in the evening, usually right after I've had dinner. My mind is still awake and energized enough that I can comprehend what I'm reading, whereas if I try to read too late at night I find myself skimming or re-reading sections. Sometimes I wish that reading and reviewing could be my full time job! I do love to wake up with a good book and cup of coffee on the weekend. I've owned Kings of The Wyld for a couple of years now and am bound and determined to read it this month! Maybe it'll be another surprise hit for me like Beyond Redeption was last week! #book #bookstagrammer #bookworm #booknerd #booklover #bookphotography #booksofinstagram #bookish #instabook #reading #fantasy #bookblog #bookstagramfeature
