🎶 I go up, helicopter. Then I make hella noise for the take off. 🎶 - Helicopter, CLC Hi friends, it's been awhile! 👋 (I've had no motivation to touch Instagram.) How is everyone? Can you believe we're halfway through the year almost? It's also time for the Mid-Year Freakout Tag, which I personally have never done because I didn't feel like doing them. But this year as someone who listens to way too much music and definitely more #KPop than books (I've been reading a lot of webtoons and rereading), I thought it would be fun to turn the questions into a Mid-Year Freakout Tag K-Pop Edition. (And have a break from reviewing.) *shameless self-promo to check out the blog (link in bio!) for the tag if any K-Pop fans wants to do it? 🥺👉👈* Some Songs and Artists Mentioned in the Post: • Excalibur by Kingdom (2021 Debut!) • Don't Call Me by SHINee • Let Me Know by PIXY (2021 Debut!) • Why Why Why by iKON • Don't Fight the Feeling by EXO • Seoul by Ghost9 • Antidote by Kang Daniel #booksandmusic #midyearfreakout #kpopmusic #flatlaystyle #flatlayphotography #hannahsophialin #bookgram #bookblogging #bloggersofinstagram #bookbloggersofinstagram #bookstack #hannahsophialin #currentlylistening #addictedtobooks
I can’t believe my ass completely didn’t notice that Sally and Becks from Adorkable, which I read and loved years ago, actually grew up and Wallflower was about their kid Viola . Wallflower was just as cute, featuring an adorable romance involving a fake relationship while plotting just a little revenge when Viola finds out her father intentionally had her drive Dare to school As much as I loved Sally and Becks’ relationship in Adorkable and the references to the book, O’Gorman strikes a perfect balance so it doesn’t overshadow Viola’s and It’s a light and fluffy read that’s perfect if you’re looking for a quick young adult contemporary book to read, which is something I enjoy from all of O’Gorman’s novels I’ve read thus far.
Just felt like popping out to say hi and to share my bullet journal layout for the rest of March because I'm biased and I think my layout is cute. 🥺👉👈 Or is it the plants? 🤔 Also I've been experimenting with layouts now that I've gotten down how I want my weeks to look after two months of doing very basic layouts to try out bullet journaling again. And I finally got some mildliners because fine point markers just aren't doing it for me. April will be more experimenting and I'm excited since I've already decided on a theme. 😌 What are you currently reading? I'm currently reading nothing since March decided, "Yes, let's repeat January 2021 and read myself out." . . . . . #booksandflowers #bookphotography #journalspread #addictedtobooks #stackofbooks #bulletjournaling #flatlayphotography #hannahsophialin #bulletjournalmarch #marchbulletjournal #flatlaystyle #flatlaybookstagram
An Ember in the Ashes meets Mask of Shadows in Emily Victoria's #ownvoices debut YA fantasy, This Golden Flame, in which asexual Karis, a servant to the mysterious Scriptorium, accidentally awakens long-dormant automaton Alix, initiating an epic adventure full of magic, rebellion, and finding where you truly belong. Set in a world of automatons and magic, Karis has been living her life at the Scriptorium for years after being separated from her brother, where scribes seek to awaken the now dormant automaton army their country was once known for. All she wants is to find a way out of the place and be reunited with her brother, and she jumps at the opportunity when she accidentally wakes up an automaton named Alix, who was created by someone she’s been taught to be a traitor, and finds herself on the run from the Scriptorium with Alix and her best friend, Dane. I adored Alix the moment Karis stumbles upon and awakens him by accident, finding out that he’s very much not like the other automatons, and I loved how well Emily Victoria depicted his human-like feelings and thoughts on the page.
I wasn’t the biggest fan of the album overall, but I’ve always been pretty selective with SHINee, so I’m not surprised. And their debut stage???I also enjoyed their mini album overall and honestly they might become one of my favorite groups quickly at this rate I also enjoyed their mini album overall and honestly they might become one of my favorite groups quickly at this rate I just want to say the mobile version is more painful than Blogger on mobile Honestly, I think working on the Fandom Wiki for RP purposes and listening to music has been giving me the most satisfying distraction throughout the entire month.
But now we’re going back to our lately scheduled programming with Spear, the last book in Realm Lovejoy’s Le Fay series. Like the previous books in the series, Lovejoy’s latest novel is quick and fast, going from action to action; I found myself finishing the book in a matter of hours. Like many book series, there are subplots in between the main plot that is explored and the Le Fay series is no exception. Overall, though, I enjoyed Lovejoy’s take on Morgan le Fay, but I wished there was more book time spent to develop the characters further.
If you were a faery, would you be part of the summer, winter or iron court? IT'S THE RELEASE DAY FOR THE IRON RAVEN!!!!!! I'm super excited to dive into the NeverNever once more with Puck as the main character. 💃 (Not me dropping out of Instagram for two months and then come out screaming about the book birthday of one of my favorite authors. I'll see you all two months. 😂) . . . . . #juliekagawa #theironfey #theironraven #inkyardpress #yabookstagram #bookphotography #bookgram #youngadultfiction #hannahsophialin #igbooks #stackofbooks #fantasynovels #fantasyreads #flatlaybookstagram #theironfeyevenfall
🧚♂️ YA Readers: what book got you into YA? Or if you don't read YA, what book got you into your favorite genre?* For me Julie Kagawa's IRON FEY will always be near and dear to my heart because it's the first book I remember that got me into reading YA and she's one of my favorite authors! It's been a whole DECADE** since I've read Kagawa's debut novel, but with The Iron Raven coming out soon (!!!), I figured it would be a good time to try out this whole rereading thing and uh... jog that memory. Because I've definitely forgotten a lot of things. 🙊 *Fantasy is my favorite genre but that ship sailed way back when I was around six and far more chaotic. . . . . . #theironfey #juliekagawa #inkyardpress #harlequinteen #yabookstagram #fantasynovels #ironfeyseries #fantasybooks #yalit #yafantasy #hannahsophialin #bookphotography #ebookstagram #booksandflowers #youngadultfantasy #addictedtobooks #youngadultfiction #fantasyreads #youngadultbooks
Hi friends! What books have you finished lately? Or, if you're not in the mood to read lately, what do you hope to read soon? Or since I just realized it's the last day of November, what's on your December TBR? (Can't blame you if you're not in the mood; I too am not in mood and it's been hard. But it's okay, you're still valid. 🤗 Also I'd ask the TBR question tomorrow but I'd like to not post daily and be exhausted from Instagram.) I recently finished THESE VIOLENT DELIGHTS, which is a stunning debut from Chloe Gong, and SHINE, which is well... we won't get into Jessica Jung's debut novel. . . . . . #yabookstagram #jessicajung #igbookstagram #booksbooksbooks #bookstagramflatlay #flatlaystyle #chloegong #theseviolentdelights #gravemaidens #kellycoon #bookishlife #youngadultbooks #allthebooks #booktography #hannahsophialin #bookphoto #bookishlover #booksandflowers #shinejessicajung
Happy Friday! What Shakespeare play have you never liked or had a love/hate relationship with but would totally 100% read a retelling of?

Let's talk about accomplishments! What are you proud of lately? I feel like something has lifted recently, although there's a lot to be done still; we'll see how long this will last (for me personally). Hopefully not for a week and then the urge to perpetually nap comes up. 😴 RECENTLY FOR ME: • I took new Instagram photos! I finally dusted off dust from my props after who knows how long. • Currently reading SEND ME THEIR SOULS by Sara Wolf fora blog tour and I'm halfway through. 💃 I've been unmotivated lately in the reading department. 😞 • I wrote two reviews over the weekend. I haven't written one in like a month? • Cleaned out inactive email subscribers, spam comments and a few old blog posts. There was quite a bit of deleting but I'm now about 260 posts of reformatting until freedom. 🥳 • Caught up with replying to comments AND blog hopping. I'm finally getting around to visiting new blogs?!?! . . . . . #igbookstagram #bookhoarder #accomplishments #hannahsophialin #addictedtobooks #bookblogging #bookalicious #stackofbooks #bookcommunity #bookishlife #bookphotography #flatlaybookstagram #GridDiary #booksandflowers #journalingapp #digitaljournal
Happy Halloween! 🎃 Time to spook some friends and cause chaos. 😈 I hope you'll all stay safe. (And hopefully no murder reality shows actually pop up like the one in #MurderFunding?) OCTOBER IN A NUTSHELL: I swear, I tried reading. And I tried blogging. It didn't really happen because I think I slept and played games more often this month??? BUT I think I'm finally getting SOME motivation since I've been wanting to give my landing page and media kit a long overdue makeover. Anyways, how was your October? P.S. I've definitely not gone to the library due to reasons but I definitely took this pic last year. . . . . . #igbookstagram #teethinthemist #librarybooks #yabookstagram #ireadya #gretchenmcneil #yanovels #hannahsophialin #booksbooksbooks #allthebooks #bookaesthetic #flatlaystyle #bookstagrammersunite #youngadultfiction #bookstagramflatlay #dawnkurtagich #youngadultbooks #yalit
Friendly reminder that graphic novels and audiobooks are considered reading even if the formats are different. 😌 *Currently reading nothing, just existing and going about life the best I can.

Not me taking bookish pics for bookstagram instead of reading. 💀💀💀 I just started reading Janella Angeles' debut and already I'm captivated by the writing and magic of the story. Anyone want to give me some extra time so I can continue without worrying about being an Adult? 😂 WHERE DREAMS DESCEND is releasing tomorrow, and I'm excited to see what everyone else thinks! (Also look how pretty the cover is? 😍) . . . . . #wheredreamsdescend #janellaangeles #yabookstagram #wednesdaybooks #igbookstagram #yafantasy #fantasybooks #addictedtobooks #fantasynovels #fantasyreads #roaring20sdebut #readersofig #yalit #readingismagic #flatlaystyle #flatlaybookstagram #bookaesthetic #hannahsophialin
So have you ever taken a photo for #bookstagram and completely forgot because I can't figure out for the life of me why I ever took a photo of #SuperM and their first debut album. I probably meant to talk about music so... what music are you currently jamming to and what song would you associate with your current read? (Because I've definitely got to make it book related if I can. 😂) Also hi it's been a million years. I'm still alive. Just very Tired in the literal and not so literal sense. 😴 Apparently I still have photos lying around. Not sure what captions I'll do for them since they're at least 6 months old but I'll find a way. 💁 . . . . . #igbooks #flatlaystyle #flatlaybookstagram #booksandflowers #booksbooksbooks #bookaesthetic #addictedtobooks #igbookstagram #bookstagrammersunite #booksandmusic #instabooks #hannahsophialin
