Who else is guilty of buying books 'cause #bookstagram 'told you to'? 😂⁠ ⁠ I've seen this one recommended by several people on here that I trust, and I love pink covers, so I had to!⁠ ⁠ I'm likely going to read it early next year - maybe a February readalong? Is anyone else interested? 🐇🐇🐇⁠ ⁠ #bookstagrammer #bibliophile #bookworm #booklover #bunny #monaawad #bookcollection #bookcollector #bookworms #booklovers #bookaesthetic #bunnybook #bunny #rainbowbookshelf #rainbowshelfie #rainbowbooks #penguinrandomhouse #penguinbooks #bookcollectors #bookaesthetic

Don’t swipe unless you’re ready for this month’s @night_worms package to be spoiled!! This month’s books are awesome, and look at all this cool swag included!! I love the @bonescoffeecompany goodies - YUM! And the bookmark, magnet, and sticker are both amazing, too! I finished one of the books, JIMMY THE FREAK, last night - what a ride! As always, very impressed and happy with my subscription - and here’s to another year of Night Worms greatness! 🐛 #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bibliophile #bookworm #booklover #bookaesthetic #nightworms #nightwormsbox #christmashorror #horrorbooks #supporthorror #constantreader #bookcollector #bookcollection #booknerdigan #girlswhoread #booklovers #bookclubofig #bookbox #booksubscriptionbox

Guess what? I've got a few new designs for mugs coming in 2020! I'll be retiring these ones soon, so if you've been interested in these, now is the time to scoop them up!!⁠ Link in my bio!⁠ ⁠ #stephenking #stephenkingbooks #edgarallanpoe #bookcollection #bookcollectors #bookishart #bibliophile #bookworm #bookrainbow #rainbowbooks #rainbowshelfie #rainbowbookshelf #rainbowbookshelfie #hodderbooks #constantreader #nevermore #quoththeraven #mugcollector #mugcollection

How pretty are these book covers? I got them all in the recent @night_worms package and can't praise them enough for what they do for the horror community! Promoting indie publishers and authors and artists - they're really just the coolest! Make sure you're following them, and subscribe for a Night Worms Box if you're looking for a way to treat yourself in the new year!⁠ ⁠ Each box is delivered to your door with some really special goodies, full-length books, and sometimes even exclusives from publishers or authors that you can't get anywhere else!⁠ ⁠ They also feature independent business owners in their boxes as often as possible - candles, bookmarks, book pins, stickers, you name it! They've got a little something for everyone, including the occasional candy, treat, or tea!⁠ ⁠ I was a supporter before joining the Night Worms review team, and working closely with Sadie & Ashley has only impressed me and made me love them more! 🥰⁠ ⁠ #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bibliophile #bookworm #booklover #bookaesthetic #booknerdigan #nightworms #horrorbooks #bookcollector #constantreader #bookhaul #2020tbr #bookish #bookishfan #bookfan

Okay, can we talk about this book? I am STRUGGLING to finish it! I was supposed to read it by Thanksgiving for a little Night Worms Buddy Read, but I failed because I just can't get super into it.⁠ ⁠ I feel like it's really slow, and entirely too long considering how little is happening. I'm about 200 pages in - maybe a little more? - and this thicc boi is over 700 for my ARC edition, which is daunting af. 😳⁠ ⁠ That isn't to say it's a bad story, because I AM interested in what's happening, it's well written, and the characters are pretty well developed so far. I'm just waiting for some excitement, I guess? Or just something to happen besides a treehouse in the middle of nowhere being built, and some kid chatting with an old bag into the night???? 😂⁠ ⁠ Sorry to the couple of fellow Worms I disappointed by not finishing this one in time, but I am going to finish it! I'll report back once I do (I'm sure this book gets better, and I'm looking forward to that point!).⁠ ⁠ #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bibliophile #imaginaryfriend #stephenchbosky #horrorbooks #booklover #bookcollector #readersofig #rainbowbookshelf #rainbowshelfie #rainbowshelf #rainbowshelfie #scarybooks #bookworm #bookshark #ilovereading #ilovebooks #currentreading

Guess what's BACK IN STOCK in my Etsy as of this week (for a limited time only!)?! N0S4R2 (also published as N0S4A2, depending on your country!) is my favorite - and first - book by Joe Hill, and I've read it 3 times.⁠ ⁠ I actually co-hosted a readalong of it last December, which was amazing! So many people loved it, and I was happy to spread the spooky holiday cheer with my bookish family!⁠ ⁠ You can buy this print from the link in my bio - but it won't be available after the holiday season, so grab it while you can!⁠ ⁠ #n0s4a2 #n0s4r2 #joehill #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bibliophile #bookworm #bookcollector #constantreader #ilovebooks #bookshelf #bookshelfie #bookart #horrorbooks #holidayhorror #christmasbooks #christmasland #bookaesthetic #girlswhoread #artistsofinstagram

How have you all decorated your Christmas trees this year? Do you go for a specific color scheme, or just wing it with whatever your favorite ornaments are? No hate to any decorating method - I love it all!⁠ ⁠ I obviously am very pro-color in my decorations - how surprising, right? I am a predictable girl! 🌈⁠ ⁠ @she.gets.lit.erary tagged me in the #bookthetree tag going around, and my little tree in my room is a bit small to hold a book (I tried, and failed spectacularly!), so this side-by-side tree/stack will have to suffice!⁠ ⁠ Please feel free to participate if you want - you just stick a book in your tree (or near it, as it were, lol), and snap a picture! Make sure you use the #bookthetree tag in your posts! SHOW US YOUR TREES!⁠ ⁠ #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bibliophile #bookworm #christmastree #rainbowchristmastree #rainbowbooks #rainbowshelf #rainbowshelfie #rainbowbookshelf #rainbowbookshelfie #rainbowbookstack #stephenking #hodder #stephenkingrainbow #holidaydecorating #christmasbooks

I finished this one as an audiobook a month ago, and had to grab a physical copy afterward 'cause I loved it so much!⁠ ⁠ I didn't expect to love this one as much as I did - I went into it not really expecting much, but hoping it'd entertain me while driving to/from/for work. I was immediately sucked into the world of Daisy Jones and loved that the focus wasn't just on her character - the rest of the band played a crucial part as well.⁠ ⁠ The audiobook is done with a full cast of memorable characters, and I can't speak highly enough for how well they played their parts. Each character came alive through the voices in a way that I'm not positive would happen just from reading it - so if you've read it and didn't like it (or are torn between a format to read it), try the audio!!⁠ ⁠ I'm also obsessed with the heavy Fleetwood Mac influences to the characters and their music - they've been a favorite for as long as I can remember, so it was super fun seeing the little hints and nods to the band & Stevie!⁠ ⁠ Overall, 5 stars - so good!⁠ ⁠ #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bibliophile #bookworm #booklover #booknerdigan #bookaesthetic #daisyjonesandthesix #daisyjones #taylorjenkinsreid #bookofthemonth #bookhaul #bookwormsofig #historicalfiction #rainbowshelfie #rainbowbooks #rainbowbookshelf #rainbowshelf

Who else read this one, or has it on their current TBR? I read it last month and had so much fun with the story! I love books that involve technology & social media - there are so many ways that the online world can have a sinister influence on a person, and reading stories about them is fun in such a creepy way!⁠ ⁠ Synopsis: Kate Collins has been ghosted.⁠ ⁠ She was supposed to be moving in with her new boyfriend Scott, but all she finds after relocating to Brighton is an empty apartment. Scott has vanished. His possessions have all disappeared.⁠ ⁠ Except for his mobile phone.⁠ ⁠ Kate knows she shouldn't hack into Scott's phone. She shouldn't look at his Tinder, his calls, his social media. But she can't quite help herself.⁠ ⁠ That's when the trouble starts. Strange, whispering phone calls from numbers she doesn't recognise. Scratch marks on the walls that she can't explain. And the growing feeling that she's being watched.⁠ ⁠ Kate refuses to leave the apartment - she's not going anywhere until she's discovered what happened to Scott. But the deeper she dives into Scott's digital history the more Kate realises just how little she really knows about the man she loves.⁠ ⁠ I gave it 4.5 stars - definitely recommend!⁠ ⁠ #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bibliophile #jasonarnopp #ghoster #horrorbooks #rainbowshelfie #rainbowbookshelf #constantreader #bookworm #booklover #booknerdigan #girlswhoread #bookclub #bookaesthetic #readersofig #booksbooksbooks #booklove

So, it’s technically not quite the middle of the year anymore, but we’re close, so! I wanted to put together a list of what I’ve read this year, and some of my stand out reads so far. I’m really lucky that a majority of the stuff I’ve read this year has gotten a really high … Continue reading →

Comic Corner #2: Buffy the Vampire Slayer Vol. 1: High School Is Hell & The Mighty Thor Vol. 1: Thunder in Her Veins

Posted by Let's Get Galactic on July 26, 2019 · 4 Comments

My second Comic Corner is here! I’ll be reorganizing, and probably rereading, a lot of the comics I own soon. I’m sure this will pick up once that starts! For now, it’s fun reading some newer stuff that I hadn’t already gotten to. Both of these have lots of girl power, so if that’s your … Continue reading →

Kindle Reviews #1: The Town That Feared Dusk by Calvin Demmer & The Kurim Case by Ryan Green

Posted by Let's Get Galactic on July 24, 2019 · 3 Comments

Yay, a new review series! I have a ton of digital books, and thought doing a mini-review type recap for some of them would be a great way to give feedback on my blog despite not being able to take great photos without physical copies. My Kindle app is so convenient, and I have hundreds of … Continue reading →
