Qotd: what catches your eye in antique shops? Last thing you bough that was old but new to you? . Books! I bought an English anthology published in 1793. It my precious. . Sometimes treasure can be found where you least expect it. In the decade since high school graduation, Christine Sawyer has realized her dream of opening Treasure Hunting Antique Mall, the place where shoppers find gems that are new to them. Between her store, her house, and her role as a doting aunt, she’s happy with her life–if a bit lonely. But she’s used to being less lucky in love than her fraternal twin sister. Britney was always the popular one, the head cheerleader who dated the homecoming king and quarterback, while Christine stayed in the shadows. Brent Nicholson is still trying to come to grips with the shambles his life has become. After leading his football team to a state championship, he suffered a career-ending injury. Now he’s lost his construction business thanks to his so-called best friend. So when his great-aunt Midge asks for his help readying her home to put it on the market, the opportunity to spend time with his biggest fan is a balm to his bruised soul. But the antiques Brent finds in his aunt’s house lead him to an unexpected partnership with Christine. After being blind to her for so many years, is it too late for the former high school jock to win the heart of the self-proclaimed “nerdy twin”? As they shift through items of the past, Christine and Brent learn to let go of the pieces they don’t want to bring into the future–and realize the value of what’s in front of them today. “Hometown charm and swoon-worthy second chances make this a must read.” –Kristen Mckanagh, author of Snowball’s Christmas . #prelovedbooks #bookstafeatures #bookclubsofinstagram #instabookstagram #bookishgirl #bookreviewer #bookobsessed #ilovereading #booksofinstagram #booknerdigans #bookishaesthetic #booksarelove #bookpicture #cozyreads #bookbuying #booksandcandles #readingtime #readingoutside #booksandwince #booksandtravel #booksandcoffee #booksaremylife #bookslovers #booksy #booksandtea #bookstagrammer #morebooks #SomethingOldSomethingNew #sweetromance #Christianfiction (at Columbus, Ohio) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnCoAU1rPM2/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Q: What's a city, state, or country you've never been and would like to travel to?. I loveddd #InANewYorkMinute ! 🗽 Maybe it’s because I live in NYC and can relate, but this story felt so down to earth and realistic. (And I can’t relate in that I’ve met an attractive guy on the subway, I wish – just the city aspects.) 🚇 I loved this book and I’m so glad I decided to pick it up. Franny & Hayes meet-cute story on the subway goes viral thanks to someone snapping photos and sharing to Instagram, making them #SubwayQTs (since they were on the Q train….get it? HA!) This is a hilarious and charming story of two people who are different and yet keep seeing each other and become connected in ways they didn’t expect. I love Franny’s over the top personality – she is an artist, after all, and decides in her newly unemployed status to start her own Interior Design business. And I love how Hayes is a business and numbers guy, he has a routine and sticks to it every single day. In A New York Minute is a romance but its definitely more plot driven than most romance novels I read – there is not a lot of actual kissing or sex in this book, I would personally rate this at a high PG-13. They don’t kiss until over halfway through the book and the sex (spoiler not spoiler, its a romance, you knew it was coming) happens off page with little to no details. This didn’t bother me in the least. These characters were so interesting to read about and so well developed. Franny's two best friends and Hayes ‘work wife’ and cousin both played important roles in this story too and I feel like we got to know all of them. #novelebookreads - Comfort reads #AlltheBooksJun22 - Date with a book #booknookbingo - Library book #KateSpencer #romancebooks #romancereads #romancereadersofinstagram #librarybookstagram #librarybook #booksinnyc #newyorkcity #nycandbooks #booksandtravel #boostingya (at Times Square 42nd Street) https://www.instagram.com/p/CfJn97Nrue_/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Q - How many flags could you identify? ✈️ I love travelling but due to the high budget and lack of exact knowledge , travelling has took back seat in my life. 🌎 Travelogue across hemispheres by Bhupendra Gupta reminds me of Ilhai song of Yeh Jawaani hai dewaani 😅. No doubt I can relate songs anytime. 📓 This book is like a travel diary of author were he discusses various places across globes. 🎢 From breathtaking experiences to eye-catching views, the author takes a rollercoaster ride of his own experiences. 📷 The pictures are like a finishing touch to the sculpture of his journey. Moreover, the cover speaks more of itself than I'm writing for this book 😎 . 👨‍👩‍👦‍👦 Author has also described his meeting with various people in his journey. Humours and informative at the same time, I can relate author at that time the most. Travel lovers should surely go for this book.

Travelling alone to places is a whole Drama package. For someone like me, it is not easy to pack bags and get on a bus just because we wish to go there. We need reason! We need detailed excuses! We are expected to be in curfew! Sometimes We even need to come up with a bunch of lies! And only then we can go on... For a few hours!. These places just look like distant lands for some people... But they hold memories that can tear open our heart and make us bleed within, aching and longing for the place to be called home. The fifteen minutes Or the 8 hours we spend there once in a while has the ability to make us feel achieved and make us weep for the next 6 months wishing and praying for an opportunity to spend there. . I know it doesn't make any sense... But I couldn't help letting it out here... . Ps. The above picture is my favorite bookstore! .

Qotd: if you read romance novels, what’s you favorite setting? . AOTD: I don’t know if it’s my favorite, but I’m a sucker for ranch settings. . The last thing lawman Hunt Wilde ever dreamed he’d do was fall hard for a purple-haired troublemaker like Cyn Wilson. While Hunt believes in law and order, Cyn lives life fast and loose—with fast cars and wild nights. But when Cyn’s sister disappears, she surprisingly turns to him for help. Never let it be said that a Wilde man turned down a woman in distress—and on a mission. It takes a lot for Cyn to swallow her pride and ask Hunt for anything. The man never gives her a break and is always staring at her with those perceptive eyes. But beneath Cyn’s tough exterior beats a heart as wide and beautiful as Wyoming itself—and soon she finds herself surrendering to the overpowering attraction simmering between them and partnering with him in the search for her missing sister. She won’t rest until she learns the truth, even if that means putting herself in harm’s way. And when Hunt discovers how much danger Cyn is in because of him, he’s even more determined to take down the man who would take her out of Hunt’s life—forever. . Just started this one and I’m already hooked. The tension…. 🥵 . #bookstagram #bookstafeatures #bookclubsofinstagram #instabookstagram #bookishgirl #bookreviewer #bookobsessed #ilovereading #booksofinstagram #booknerdigans #bookishaesthetic #booksarelove #bookpicture #cozyreads #bookbuying #booksandcandles #readingtime #readingoutside #tlcbooktours #bookworm #readersofinstagram #booksandtravel #booksandcoffee #bookstagramfeature #booksaremylife #bookslovers #booksy #romancebooks #bookstagrammer #morebooks (at Columbus, Ohio) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ckl_20TPuTX/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#QOTD Who is your favorite villain/antihero? 📚 📚 I normally don't like villains. I mean I seriously start hating them the moment I read about them. But reading about The Darkling was something different. I liked him right from the start. Even when I knew what he really was, I just couldn't hate him. I was hoping against hope that maybe he's just acting and not really the villain.🙈🙈 Would you believe I had this hope with me until the end of the second book!!😅😅 📚 📚 A friend of mine once said that the success of an anti hero is in how much the audience hates him/her. Now that's something for a thought. 📚 📚 #mondebooks #yareads #bookishcommunity #booknerdigans #unitedbookstagram #bookrecommendations #bookaddiction #booksandtravel #thebookieclub #avidobooks #bookstagramuncertified #bookstagramfeatures #yalove #booksofinstagram #bookgram #bookgeek #booksaremylife #booksaremagic #booksandshares #bookshark https://www.instagram.com/p/B19BS6sAlk9/?igshid=bfpn8k6vs8pa

To oczywiście fragment dialogu z książki, ale przywołuję go, bo każdy potrzebuje od czasu do czasu udać się na pustynię, jakkolwiek będziemy ją rozumieć. Żegnam się z Wami tym wpisem, a jeśli mi się uda, to postaram się i Was zabrać na moją pustynię. Życzcie mi dobrego lotu i bezpiecznego lądowania.🙋🛫 Oraz dostępu do sieci, jeśli chcecie, bym czasem podzieliła się wrażeniami.😏🕸 #zaczynamurlop #czytamnaurlopie #booksandtravel https://www.instagram.com/p/B9IWKG3hJTk/?igshid=gz2zxwbz5o8p

‘I am halfway through this amazing book on #Ahalya and just loving it!❤’ - #Repost @therisingreader with @get_repost ・・・ How much do you guys love reading while traveling? 📖 . . . I have been to Jaipur, Rajasthan recently and I just loved every piece of it. Jaipur is truly a colorful city. 🌸 Massive forts, beautiful architecture, authenticity and what not. The best part about my trip was, I had the pleasure of reading a few chapters on Princess Ahalya in the huge Amer fort. It literally gave me a different kind of peace and pleasure. Damn! It was such a great feeling, to read about a princess while being in a palace. 😇 Also, I am halfway through this amazing book on Ahalya and just loving it!❤ . . . #therisingreaderreading 📖 #ahalya #ahalyasawakening #kavitakane #kavitakanebooks #mythology #indianmythology #bookstagram #bookstagramindia #bookgram #unitedbookstagram #bookishjourney #bookishworld #bookishcommunity #thebookoholics #bibliophile #bookworm #booksandtravel #jaipur #amerfort #read #readerforlife #booksofinstagram #readersofinstagram #delhibookstagrammer #delhibookstafam #myhappyplace #preciselypena🎈 (at Amer Fort Jaipur) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2jPK5opdiS/?igshid=1cmq9rqv8kyei

𝕿𝖔𝖑𝖐𝖎𝖊𝖓 Hey booksnobs, I'm back at it with another Tolkien post! I'm always in awe of the massive world he created, the fact you can study Tolkien linguistics at the University of Oxford really says something about the legacy he left. When I was there, I got to visit the Eagle and Child pub where he and his friends spent a lot of time, the famous literary group, The Inklings. You might recognize a few other signatures there as well! That amazing necklace is made from a Scottish river rock, carved by an amazing artist I met while I was living there. @stonemadcrafts is crazy talented so check out his work. #QOTD What real life place that has ties to books would you want to visit? #AOTD I'd like to go back to The Elephant House in Edinburgh where J.K Rowling wrote a lot of the Harry Potter books and spend more time there. #bookstagram #tolkien #thehobbit #lordoftherings #booksandtravel #england #cslewis #bookphotography #booksofinstagram #bookphotography #bibliophile #booklover #booknerd #bookish #bookstagramer #bookstagramfeature #quotes https://www.instagram.com/p/Bz_4HP0Aont/?igshid=lofv3pxtuz82
