We have fallen head over heels in love with this series. The human is in love with Chaol Westfall, while I absolutely adore Celaena. We're going to be tearing through this series, I can see it now! 😍

Accepting that our #GoingforGold #bookolympics challenge failed and fell by the wayside this week. Life got in the way sadly, but we are getting stuck into this beauty of a book. I am just falling in love with Chaol 😍 and Celaena is my ultimate love ❤️

Yesterday's #GoingforGold achievement. This is a fabulous thriller which had me hooked from the very first twist in the story. At first I wasn't sure what to think, but it soon picked up and launched me head-first into the plot. Definitely worth a read/re-read, recommended for all who love thriller crime novels. #bookisholympics

ScrappyMags The movie trailer looks gooooooooood too! 8y
[DELETED] 2232195534 Looking forward to seeing the movie! Thought the book was good. 8y
thecurioushedgehog @kaysreadinglife @ScrappyMags I know! I'm looking forward to seeing it too! 😃 8y

(Yesterday's #bookisholympics conquest - #GoingforGold)
This book had me hooked from the get go, until the end. I started to lose interest quite quickly, but don't get me wrong it is still an incredible book, but the way that it seems so perfect in every detail just seemed to make it drag on a little where perhaps it didn't need to. All in all, I would definitely re-read, and I would recommend to anyone who loves a good Dan Brown-esque novel.

I have finally acquired a bookcase for all my beautiful books 😍 Hedgehog is very happy with the surprise!

I also found my battered Chronicles of Narnia book, unfortunately it's not pictured because it got cut off the bottom, but I remembered how magical the series is. I must give it a re-read soon!

Day 13 of #augustofpages : #bookstacks Here's an old photo because we're on holiday at the moment, but this is our #tbr stack, which will probably take us a year to complete 🙈 the result of my book buying problem right there! Crown of Midnight isn't featured as it is a new purchase, but I can't wait to start reading it! #augustphotochallenge

I found this on Facebook yesterday and it made me very happy.

I haven't been able to post anything for #augustofpages because I haven't been at home and won't be until Sunday, but I'll get back on it then. 📚

TheSpinecrackersBookClub Enjoy! Looking forward to see your posts. 8y
thecurioushedgehog @TheSpinecrackersBookClub Thank you! I promise hedgehog will be back in action soon! 8y
TheSpinecrackersBookClub I can imagine Hedgie isn't too happy at the moment. 8y
thecurioushedgehog @TheSpinecrackersBookClub He's not, he's quite upset at the moment but I've been taking him travelling with me so he should cheer up soon. 8y

Day 8 of the #augustofpages book photo challenge : Books that makes you smile.
After a trip to The British Museum I was certainly left smiling at seeing the wonderful collection of books that once were in King George III's possession, particularly these beautiful Shakespeare volumes. Measure for Measure is❤️

Hedgehog is again lacking today 😢 but that is because I couldn't put him on any of the displays in the museum!! He'll be back tomorrow!

TheSpinecrackersBookClub Love your post. Just looking at this photo makes me smile. I think it is missing a hedgehog though. 8y
thecurioushedgehog @TheSpinecrackersBookClub Thank you so much! I'm glad we made you smile. Hedgehog was very upset at not being allowed to be in the photo, I told him he can have extra photos this week to make up for it! 8y

Day 5 of #augustofpages : Books & Sport

I have no books relating to sport, so this will have to do. I suppose The Hunger Games is a sport of sorts. Hedgehog doesn't fancy taking part though.

TheSpinecrackersBookClub I think it's the most brutal sport that exists 😋 hedgehog doesn't look like the sportsing kind 8y
thecurioushedgehog @TheSpinecrackersBookClub no he's not at all, he is however the travelling kind, we've travelled to London today :) 8y

Day 4 of #augustofpages and today is "favourite bookish squad" My bookish squad goals has got to be the team from Matthew Reilly's "Jack West Jr." series. They are a fantastic bunch that travel the world in search of ancient artefacts, and get into all sorts of mayhem and adventures.
(Book #3 - The Five Greatest Warriors is hiding at the top. Book #4 - Four Legendary Kingdoms is going to be released in October!)

#bookishsquad #bookphotochallenge

TheSpinecrackersBookClub Lovely and I'm sure the hedgehog agrees or does he have a different #bookishsquads? 8y
thecurioushedgehog @TheSpinecrackersBookClub I think he agrees ☺️ although he does love the Harry Potter #bookishsquad 8y

Day 2 of #augustofpages book challenge. Today's prompt was "romance novels". These are the only ones I could find today, there are books absolutely everywhere in my house. I haven't read "Me Before You" or "Anna Karenina" yet, so I'd have to say "P.S, I Love You" is my favourite out of this bunch. (Hedgehog agrees ?)
@TheSpinecrackersBookClub

TheSpinecrackersBookClub Some fantastic romance novels here. 8y
TheSpinecrackersBookClub And of course a beautiful hedgehog 8y

"A lost gospel, a relic, and a dying pope's final wish send two brothers - both Vatican priests - on a quest to untangle Christianity's biggest mystery." I've only just started this book but wow I am hooked! It is so intriguing.

MrBook Oooh, I have this one on my shelf! 8y

Absolutely incredible. This book had me hooked from the get-go. I'm only sad I haven't got the rest of the series yet to carry on reading the amazing storylines Sarah J Maas creates!!

I can't wait to get properly stuck into re-reading this beauty after exams. It's a wonderful, thrilling, mystery of adventure. The rich history of the original wonders of the world is told fabulously through the strong characters and excellent story.
