I am so happy! Went to see this yesterday and after the disappointment of Cursed Child I was worried that this would let me down as well but I was amazed. The beasts were beautiful and the magic stunning (ha magic pun), even if at times it slightly contradicted the rules we learnt in the HP books, but these were tiny details that I'm sure most people wouldn't notice so overall, absolutely magical!

My choice for #booktober #characteriddressupas is red riding hood as I am a very low effort halloween/fancy dresser. All you need is a red cloak then done.

Celaena Sardothien is a damn cool name (and so are her various other monikers) so this is my choice for #bestcharactername for #booktober . The Throne of Glass series is one of my absolute favourites so if you haven't read them already, go do it! right now!

I will be honest, the fact that it's called Sorcerer's Stone and not Philosopher's Stone on here annoys me quite a bit, but ah well. These are the ultimate #bookssetinschool for #booktober and I'm sure anyone who has read them (which should be everyone) has experienced extreme envy for the lucky people who got to go to Hogwarts. My best birthday present yet has been my mum taking me to the Warner Bros Studios to see everything first hand.

My belated #mancrush for #octphotochallenge. I absolutely adore Jem, and although tbh I ship Tessa, Jem and Will together (OT3 ftw) Jem will always be my true love

Samwise Gamgee (AKA #bestsidekick for #booktober) is my fave character from Lord of the Rings and the best friend any hobbit could ask for. I do have to shamefully admit I haven't read the last book yet, but for me these films are really good adaptations of the book ( considering the size of the books and the average length of films).

This is my current read for my school bookclub, I have read it before but am enjoying the chance to read it again. My friend got it signed for me which I am eternally grateful for because Patrick Ness is a wonderful author!

I know I'm a bit late for #day7 of #octphotochallenge but Sabriel is my ultimate #girlcrush, although it was very difficult to choose. I also considered Rose from Vampire Academy and Sally Lockhart from the Ruby in the Smoke

This is a book that I borrowed from the library ages ago but was so brilliant that I had to buy my own copy so I could reread it whenever I want. It's my choice for #day6 of #booktober because it is #fullofadventure and the characters are written absolutely perfectly. The concept of a skeleton detective is ridiculous but he is so wonderfully sparky, he's one of my favourite childhood characters. I definitely recommend!

This is my choice for day 3 of #octphotochallenge #betterinthemovie . I really enjoyed the movie of the maze runner, but I haven't been able to get all the way through the book.

this is my #mostanticipatedread for #booktober . I'm so damn excited to read it but I probably won't get it till Christmas and the wait is killing me. I may read all of the other books in the series to bide my time and refresh my memory of where we left Aelin and the others.

#mapsinbooks for #day28 of #somethingforsept I love books with maps in, my favourite are the maps in Eragon but I don't have that book with me atm.

For #septemberchallenge my #favouritevillian is Spike from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I have to admit, I haven't really read the books, I only have this one, but the tv show is my fave

All of the pages have these lovely little illustrations, it makes me happy.

"Each of us carries the map of our lives on our skin, in the way we walk, even in the way we grow"
This quote reminds me of the poem The Map Woman by Carol Ann Duffy.
This book is at the top of my tbr pile, I'm really looking forward to reading it, mainly because of the beautiful pages and maps!

"What really knocks me out is a book that, when you're all done reading it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it. That doesn't happen much, though."- Holden Caulfield is us.
For #bannedbookweek , Catcher was banned in Washington in 1978 and was one of the most censored books in America, for being part of 'a communist plot'.

I just found these amazing candles by themeltinglibrary on instagram, I'm planning on buying about 5 from etsy asap. They also have candles inspired by Harry Potter, Stranger Things, Throne of Glass and LotR.

Quick lunch of thai fish curry before continuing to read about Greek mythology.
