pickGot through this BEAUTIFUL graphic novel this weekend. It literally had everything I've ever wanted from sci-fi: badass ladies, action, a protagonist with a ~mysterious~ origin story, and a 💯 love interest (seriously, Lola is the bomb dot com). Can't decide if I want to wait to buy volume 2 or buy the next set as issues but serious, Image comics has been knocking it outta the park these days 🔥🔥🔥 #weekendreads #sundayreview
Ummmmm....does Andres want to make my clothes? Cause I sure as hell pull do with more pockets!
I ❤️ pretty chapter headings ✨✨ #weekendreads #currentlyreading #theadesalle

OMG I haven't posted in forever 😱 Definitely going to try to get back in the swing of things!
Spontaneous lunchtime library trip led to this spontaneous checkout. I've heard a lot of good things, hopefully it lives up to all of them 😊
Nalini Singh always manages to make me believe that the world might have some good in it, even when she's writing about alternate universes with psychics and shape shifters. ❤️🐻🐾✨🌄🌌 💛
#psychangelingtrinity #psychangeling
This is my third Wonder Woman collection in a row 💪💪 Perfect for a Friday night spent hiding from people
All these for only $3.50! Library book sales are the best! ✨✨
pickFirst, what I liked: pretty much everything. Nate was a fab narrator and I thought him and Trent worked so well as a couple. I ESPECIALLY liked that they didn't pretend they didn't like each other. There was A+ communication going on! I also liked the world of this hidden community of psychics and how real world differences play out within it. Race, class, sexuality are at play, even with people who can read each others minds or see the future.
What do you do when you match your book? Take a selfie, obvs ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ #flannelforlife
Oh my God, Amina, same.
Always nice to see your twelve-year-old self show up in a book (possibly the reason I also loved Alanna?)
I've never been so sad for a character in my life 😭
Ok, finally making this attempt. The idea of dealing with fantasy the last few weeks has just been very unappealing. Maybe my brain will be up to the idea of world building to enjoy this one. If not, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
pickOh my God, it was perfect!! I haven't read her entire backlist but Alisha Rai has yet to disappoint in the 7 books I've read. This book made me feel so much! And forbidden love is not my favorite trope (I always find myself thinking "ummm y'all are grown ass adults, do what(who)ever you want) but this was SO INTENSE that it made sense for them not to go up against their families at first. #romantsy (continued in the comments ??????)
Fjdjdjdidjkdlslaoskdk!!!!!!! OF COURSE IM DROPPING EVERYTHING FOR THIS ONE!!!
pickUgh my heart is bursting! And I was nervous because I didn't like Caleb AT ALL but 3 pages in or so & I was all in for this book. So good&Oli was surprisingly adorable too. I did NOT expect that though I do think we could've gone into how his time between being disowned & finding his way effected his relationships. Anyway I'm still super stressed about the next one (David & Raymond can't have more problems, they've been through too much already!).
pickThere isn't anything I can really say that someone else hasn't already said and said better. So I will just second all of them: this book is amazing, this book is important, and Angie Thomas is someone who is going to be doing AMAZING things in YA hopefully for many many years to come.
I seriously love everything about Squirrel Girl 💖💛💙
Not super book related, but here's my snow day view: brand new comforter, Alice planner and some work editing! ❄️🌬🌨☃️
They just launched the kickstarter for volume 2!! Yay! 🎉🎉 The line up looks great, even if there's isn't the next piece of Ruined ☹️
Here the link: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/emetcomics/fresh-romance-brings-you-volume-...
pickNot only is this the first book I've finished in a week, but I finally caught up on the kerfluffle that happened around the artists. (What a mess, btw). But this was all done before all that happened and it was definitely another solid entry in this grown-up Tamora Pierce graphic novel series. I love these characters and they don't disappoint here at all. ❤
That moment when you realize you could have been bffs with Victoria, bonding over how weird newborns look
I'm definitely enjoying this book (almost killed myself laughing while reading in bed last night. If your asthma's acting up, don't laugh lying down, trust) but only if I turn off the part of my brain that just *rages* at this shit. The author clearly doesn't like it either, but she takes a more "good lord how ridiculous" view when all I can think of is how this lingers and ruins girls' lives today ?? #adventuresinnonfiction
Of course they all came in at the same time 😨 #toomanybooks #notenoughtime #libraryholds
Chai tea + honey whiskey + lemon + honey + a cinnamon stick = an excellent companion to Friday night reading! #booksandcocktails
Just a little sexy subway reading 🎶 ft. my thumb in the bottom right corner #romantsy
OMG I am feeling this quote SO HARD! I have a feeling THIS is the heart of what sector one is all about and I am so going to love this series!
This is ACTUALLY from Ashwin, which I got off netgalley, but that's not on litsy yet.
#romantsy #arc #netgalley #gideonsriders #ashwin
Ugh this is actually about Hard Wired, but that's not on litsy so I just used book 1 in the same series.
OMG JESSE AND IAN ARE SO CUTE, I CANNOT EVEN HANDLE IT 🖤💛💙💜💔
(Yay they added the book so I changed it to March the book I'm actually talking about)
Not outSIDE, per se, but I had to go outside to get to the laundromat on this icky rainy/snowy day. The only thing making it survivable is being able to read while I wait. #riotgrams
So I was going to take a photo of my small but awesome comics section on my bookshelf for today's #riotgrams but decided to go a little less literal and show off this photo of gifts I got for my birthday at work. I have seriously awesome coworkers and they know me *so* well ☺️
An author with my name: Megan Erickson. I love her books so much, especially the Cyberlove series with Santino Hassell which has a new book out next week 🎉 #riotgrams (bonus appearance by Megan Whalen Turner who ain't too shabby herself)
pickFinally finished it! So glad I reread this one, it's just as wonderful as I remember. Granted, if I was reading it new I probably wouldn't love how much time is spent on their childhoods but the payoff is so great 😍 They've loved each other for so long! And that sunscreen scene is surprisingly still smokin' even though the last time I read it, I was twelve (or maybe 11? Idk😐). Guess I had good taste, even then 😉
Preordered this since it's like 10 bucks at Target 🎯 and realized it's perfect for today's #riotgrams theme! #blackhistory #romantsy
Here's a lovely summery photo of my local library ❤📚❤ When I found out the day I started moving stuff into my new apartment that the library was only 4 blocks away, I was so excited! It's small, but I can request anything from the whole NYPl system PLUS they won a grant and will soon be doubling in size 😍Definitely the cherry on top of all the things I love about this apartment #homesweethome #riotgrams #librarylove
Annnnnd here are my #currentreads! Honest Illusions is a reread I've been meaning to do forever, so I'm finally doing it and counting it for my #readharder challenge (read a book you've read before). The other two are both by authors I've been following a while and thoroughly enjoy. #riotgrams
pickBlah, I couldn't get the crop right for the whole cover, but this is doubling as my favorite villain #riotgrams post! This series is amazing and the last book totally loved up to the promise. Seeing the Eden council members get defeated was SO SATISFYING because they're the WORST. Which is what makes a great villain in my book 👍🏻. Also, Ryder and Nessa had such amazing chemistry and I cried a lot through this whole book ❤😭 #romantsy
Playing a bit of catch up on #riotgrams so here's my #bookishobjects: I've got a nice little pin collection at my work desk. I used to wear them on my lanyard at Barnes and Noble but needed a new plan when I got a desk job. Luckily the wall of my desk is stabby! (With special guest appearance by a Women's March postcard)
A one word title! I started this one and couldn't really get into it, but I'm tempted to go back for the hot librarian love interest 😉Plus, Alice Clayton is hilarious and I could do with a little more laughter. #riotgrams
But wait, can we talk about this book cover? 🔥🔥🔥#romantsy
#riotgrams day 2! Where do I read? Well, mostly in my bed tbh but it's too messy for a picture right now so heres my second favorite place. The couch with some blankets and a nice Doctor who pillow. Sometimes there's a bit of competition since my roommate prefers the same corner but now that we have mostly opposite schedules, it works out.
