I am SUPER excited about this post! This post is going to be a list/combination of things that I wish I could have in my dream reading space. The reason I am so excited to do this post is because I usually just read on the couch, so it is so much fun to find evyerthing that I want in my dream reading space! So, without further ado, let's get onto the post! 1. Bookshelves What is a reading space without bookshelves? After lots of browsing, I narrowed my choice down to two bookcases. The bookshelves on the left are the Billy bookshelves from Ikea. I love the look of the wall to wall shelves and I think it would be a great addition to a dream reading space! The floating shelves on the right are from Target. I would love to use them as a way to display my favorite books! 2. Chair Obviously, I need somewhere I can curl up with my book! The chair on the left from Arhaus looks so comfy and like I can snuggle up with a blanket and read for hours. The couch on the right is also from Arhaus. I picked it because sometimes I would rather lie down and reading rather than sitting in the comfy chair! If these appeal to you, Arhaus has a wonderful selection of couches on their Sectional Sofas page! 3. Lighting Of course I need some lighting to read. I couldn't decide between these two lamps so I am including both. The one on the left is so adorable and the one on the right is super classy. 4. Blanket I actually have this blanket, and take it from me. It is incredibly soft! 5. Decorations

What harm can a little hope do? -The Language of Thorns: Midnight Tales and Dangerous Magic by Leigh Bardugo Oh my, I am LOVING this book so far! I started reading it about a week ago. Since it is a series of short stories, I have been reading a story or a half of a story every few nights. As someone who loved the Six of Crows Duology and the Grisha Trilogy, I am really enjoying this book. If you do Teaser Tuesday posts, leave the link in the comments and I will be sure to check it out! Don't forget to comment and subscribe to stay up to date with my future posts! Love speaks in flowers. Truth requires thorns. Travel to a world of dark bargains struck by moonlight, of haunted towns and hungry woods, of talking beasts and gingerbread golems, where a young mermaid's voice can summon deadly storms and where a river might do a lovestruck boy's bidding but only for a terrible price. Inspired by myth, fairy tale, and folklore, #1 New York Times–bestselling author Leigh Bardugo has crafted a deliciously atmospheric collection of short stories filled with betrayals, revenge, sacrifice, and love. Perfect for new readers and dedicated fans, these tales will transport you to lands both familiar and strange—to a fully realized world of dangerous magic that millions have visited through the novels of the Grishaverse. This collection of six stories includes three brand-new tales, all of them lavishly illustrated with art that changes with each turn of the page, culminating in six stunning full-spread illustrations as rich in detail as the stories themselves. Title: No Vain Loss Author: M.C. Frank Series: No Ordinary Star, #3 Genre: SciFi, Fantasy Publisher: M.C. Frank Date Published: End of 2017 Pages: 230 Synopsis: A soldier is summoned to the North Pole, days before the year changes, told to fix the great Clock for a celebration. He has no idea what to do. A girl, hunted for the crime of being born, almost dies out on the ice. She is rescued by the last polar bear left alive. A library waits for them both, a library built over a span of a hundred years, forgotten in the basement of an ice shack. The world hasn’t known hunger or sickness in hundreds of years. It has also forgotten love and beauty. This is the One World. The year is 2524. Inspired by the short stories of Ray Bradbury, this futuristic young adult novel in three parts is set in a world where Christmas -among other things- is obsolete and a Clock is what keeps the fragile balance of peace. Written in three parts, this is the breathtaking story of how two unlikely people change the world, and each other, one book at a time. In No Vain Loss, the world is on the brink of the greatest war humanity has ever known. Lives will be lost. New truths will be revealed. No Vain Loss is perfect for fans of: -Hot Soldiers (see Kdrama, Descendants of the Sun, etc.) -My True Love Gave to Me anthology, Christmas feels and aesthetic -Ray Bradbury-inspired scifi worldbuilding -YA dystopian/postapocalyptic novels -These Broken Stars series -Book Boyfriends -A touch of existential issues Huxley-style -Star Wars-style action -Intense romance -Hidden libraries -Fight for survival -Forbidden kisses -Bromance -Bears So, does this sound amazing?
