Don’t mind if I do ☕️📚Today has been a super productive day - not only did I write up 7 pages of research, but also wrote a blog post and subtitles two videos! 🙌🏻 This is why I head out and work in my favourite coffee place so regularly 😂 But now, to spend the evening reading! #bookstagram #booksandcoffee #bookish #books #reader #reading #coffee #coffeedate #booktube #booktuber #bookblog #bookblogger

Have you read any Mulan retellings? How about this one? . . The Hand, The Eye and The Heart is our August book of the month for Myth-Take! Why have we announced it early? Well, because of the #MythTakeReadathon! Our challenge to read the book of the month is worth double points, and so we figured we’d announce it a little earlier than usual and give you time to scout it out. I’m so excited to be reading this non-binary Mulan retelling 🙌🏻✨ . . . Remember, you don’t have to take part in Myth-Take every single month to be part of it - just join us when you want to! You also don’t *have* to be participating in the readathon to read this one along with us - though of course we hope you do! OR if you really don’t fancy reading this one, you can choose a retelling of your own choice and tell us all about it! Any retelling will do ☺️✨ just remember the use the hashtag #MythTakeReads for all your updates! . . Another one I have my eyes on at the moment is Spin the Dawn by Elizabeth Lim. I know I’ll end up breaking soon and buying it 🙈 I really shouldn’t but hey ho, books are my life aha. . . #bookstagram #books #mulanretelling #mythtake #thehandtheeyeandtheheart #bookish #bookworm #reader #bookclub #reading #readathon #readalong #booktube #booktuber #bookblog #bookblogger

Do you ever read outside the house? I always have done on public transport or audiobooking while walking, but this summer I’m making an active choice to head to my favourite coffee place at least once a week and spending some time reading there. It’s really helping my my MH, and it feels so much more motivating when I specifically go somewhere TO read. I love it! . . On a related note, spending my days reading Greek plays, Myth retellings, and being able to class it as productive research is the BEST feeling 😭🙌🏻 that and the added fun of #MythTakeReads is really getting me through the summer. The joys of reading, eh? . . #bookstagram #greekmyth #greekmythretelling #books #booktube #booktuber #bookblog #bookblogger #bookish #booksandcoffee #reader #reading #circe #madelinemiller

Are you a fan of readathons? ✨ I feel like I have quite a few readathon related updates! It’s funny because I didn’t used to like them, and now I LOVE them! So much so... . . I’m co-hosting a readathon with @beigepages as part of #mythtakereads!! I have a whole video announcement to explain bingo board challenges, point scoring systems and the lot, so head to the link in my bio for that! 🙌🏻 we’re both so so excited about this, so please do join us if you can! In August I’m also planning on taking part in the FemmeFanTale readathon hosted by @jeansthoughts and @jill.scott.9 too, so I’m super excited to build a TBR from all the prompts both from ours and theirs! . . As for the readathon I’m taking part in NOW, I’m about to finish my FIFTH book for @the.book.junkie.trials! I’ve been reading so quickly lately and I’m THRILLED. Let’s hope the momentum keeps up for August! . . Are you taking part in any readathons at the minute? Are you planning to take part in any for August? Let me know! . . #bookstagram #mythtakereads #mythtakereadathon #femmefantale #thebookjunkietrials #readathon #books #booktube #booktuber #bookblog #bookblogger #bookish #bookworm #reader #reading #mythretelling #circe #madelinemiller

I’m starting to think that maybe I should just wait until all the books are out in a series before I begin to read it 🙈 I’m SO BAD at continuing series, and I’m making an effort to change that by reading the sequels straight after from now on. As for now, it seems Song of Sorrow has been pushed back AGAIN. I had hoped to read it this month but I don’t know if I’ll get chance. Hopefully I can still squeeze it in! I’m annoying myself now 😂 Are there any sequels you seem to just keep pushing back? #bookstagram #books #bookish #bookseries #bookblog #bookblogger #booktube #booktuber #bookworm #reader #reading #tbr

✨ The joy of starting a new book ✨ What are you reading this weekend? I’ll be reading The Furies by Katie Lowe, which I’m starting right now! . . Also, my June Wrap Up will be going live on my channel in a few hours, so keep an eye out! Link to my booktube channel in my bio ☺️✨ . . #bookstagram #bookish #booklover #reader #reading #currentlyreading #booktube #booktuber #bookblog #bookblogger #books
