LibraryThing has a cool little feature that shows you, once you've catalogued your books, how tall they would be if stacked. My family's collection (in black) is apparently taller than even the tallest stone structure ever made (the Washington Monument)!

Bookwomble That's an impressive stack! 📚 4w

Echo of Old Books | Barbara Davis

Attention all bibliophiles! 🤓 I was drawn in by the beautiful cover and the premise of doomed love and the dual timelines of 1941 and 1984. Ashlyn, who restores old books in her inherited bookstore in 1984, can feel the emotions of the previous owners when she touches a book. She stumbles on 2 old books that appear never to have been published, his and hers stories about a doomed love affair in 1941. She soon becomes absorbed in their stories ⬇️

JenlovesJT47 And sets out to learn more via the man who donated them, Ethan. I don‘t want to give away anything else but all book lovers should read this book! It‘s available on kindle unlimited and I listened to the #audiobook with 3 excellent narrators. 5⭐️ Highly recommended! #bibliophile #historicalfiction #WWII #kindleunlimited 2mo

I absolutely adored this little book!

This book was written by Christian Dior in 1954 so naturally parts are outdated. For example, there is a lot of discussion on frocks.

That being said, there is still relevant advice. The overall theme of the book is elegance and accentuating what makes you look good, which is still useful in today‘s world.

Could this be my best book of the year so far? Inspired by Little Women, an all-time favourite of mine, this is a book on family loyalty and forgiveness. It deals with hard emotions but so poignant and the writing is stunning. I was so immersed in this beautiful multigenerational family story! I urge everyone to read this! #bookrecommendation#2023reading#hellobeaitiful#bibliophile

Marvel Powers of a Girl | Lorraine Cink

This was such a fun guide featuring the ladies of the Marvel Universe!

I am a huge Marvel fan so I knew I had to read this book. My all time favorite superhero is Squirrel Girl and she is included in this book.

Each hero gets about 4 pages dedicated to her; complete with a biography and fun facts. I loved that everyone got an equal amount of attention.

This book serves as a prequel to the Disney movie, Cinderella, and explores how Drizella and Anastasia became evil stepsisters.

The plot was well executed. The story is fairly basic, but it works. It highlights how the sisters weren‘t born being evil, they became evil.

The story centers on the classic fake dating trope, so a lot of it is predictable.

Everything about this book was super adorable and sweet. I loved all of Eliza and Caz‘s interactions. They really brought out the best in each other and most importantly, helped each other grow and develop.

ONCE UPON A WARDROBE. | PATTI. CALLAHAN

This was such a magical read!

This book perfectly encapsulates the wonder and excitement of falling in love with The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe. It reminded me of just how enchanting the world of Narnia is and gave me a huge wave of nostalgia.

Better the Blood | Michael Bennett

Excellent crime fiction set in Auckland, NZ, the author examines the injustice of colonisation and the long-term effects on future generations of the Maori people. An impressive protagonist, a villain with a cause who you can sympathise with, a family story and a tensely plotted story made it all such a compelling read that I finished it in less than a day. #bibliophile#litsylove#alwaysreading#crimefiction#newzealand
