🌈 It’s Rainbow Stack Day! 🌈⁣ ⁣ Happy Friday everyone! We have officially made it through week three of quarantine/social distancing (we all deserve shiny gold stars and lots of wine…just saying).⁣ ⁣ Today I am joining in the rainbow stack challenge that the rainbow queen herself @jennsbookvibes is hosting! With all of the darkness going on right now, she asked us to light up instagram with beautiful rainbows to help remind us to stay positive and (virtually) lean on one another.⁣ ⁣ So get those colorful books and use the hashtag #jennsrainbowchallenge! ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ 𝐓𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐦𝐞 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐜𝐥𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐞.⁣ ⁣ My husband and I have been taking daily walks together, which I’ve now come to look forward to.
💙 Blue Stacks for Autism Awareness 💙⁣ ⁣ Today I am joining in on the Autism Awareness stack challenge that’s being hosted by @suspensethrill @novelgossip @reallyintothis! ⁣ ⁣ They’ve asked us to stack our blue books and use the hashtag #thrillandchillstacks.⁣ ⁣ Can’t participate today?

I definitely never outgrew that curiosity and passion 👩🏽‍🔬🧪⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Twelve-year-old Libby Monroe is great at science, being optimistic, and talking to her famous, accomplished friends (okay, maybe that last one is only in her head). She’s not great at playing piano, sitting still, or figuring out how to say the right thing at the right time in real life. Libby was born with Turner Syndrome, and that makes some things hard. But she has lots of people who love her, and that makes her pretty lucky.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ From debut author Sarah Allen comes a pitch-perfect, heartwarming middle grade novel about growing up, finding yourself, and loving people with everything you’re made of.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Thank you to @macmillankidsbooks for sending me a copy of the book and teaming up with me for a great giveaway! Check out how to enter below:⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ GIVEAWAY⁣⁣ Enter to win a finished copy of What Stars Are Made Of⁣⁣ - follow me, @macmillankidsbooks, @sarahallenbooks and @storygramkids⁣⁣ - tag a friend you think will be interested⁣⁣ For EXTRA entry⁣⁣ - visit @books_with_bethany’s account tomorrow and repeat these steps⁣⁣ RULES⁣⁣ - Giveaway will ‪end April 6th at midnight‬ EST⁣⁣ - US Only⁣⁣ - not affiliated with Instagram⁣⁣ -must be 18 or have parents permission⁣⁣ -must be a public account so I can verify entries⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ #WhatStarsAreMadeOfTour #WhatStarsAreMadeOf #sarahallen #macmillankidsbooks #storygramkids⁣⁣
It’s Tuesday, which means new books!⁣ ⁣ So this is a bit of a late post for me, but I’ve been busy devouring Cut and Run by @abwrites, which released today! ⁣ ⁣ Huge thank you to my friends over @minotaur_books for my gifted copy! ⁣ ⁣ If you love murder mysteries and police procedurals then you definitely need this book! It’s fast paced and is keeping me on my toes! ⁣ ⁣ Synopsis:⁣ ⁣ FBI Agent Lucy Kincaid is dead-set on solving a cold case—even if the original investigators stonewall her every step of the way. A violent storm has uncovered the remains of a family that authorities assumed fled the country years ago to avoid prosecution. But the body of the youngest Albright son never turned up. If the child is dead, why wasn’t his body found with his parents? If he’s alive, where has he been…and what does he know? Now Lucy and her partner Nate must reconstruct an old crime to find a missing child in the present day.⁣ ⁣ Meanwhile, investigative reporter Maxine Revere is called to San Antonio. A confessed killer of a young woman named Victoria has recanted his statement, which opens the door to a whole new world of secrets and betrayal. Max hires Sean Rogan, Lucy’s husband and a seasoned PI, to help. The discovery that Victoria might be connected to the Albright family leads Max, Sean, and Lucy to the darkest corridors of corporate crime. But how can they untangle this complex web to find justice for the victims…and the killer in their midst?⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ 📖 Are you sneaking in any last minute reads for March? 📖
#bookfeature @putnambooks #partner ⁣ ⁣ Happy Monday everyone! ⁣ ⁣ My friends over at @putnambooks sent me this gorgeous finished copy of Providence by Max Barry, which releases tomorrow! ⁣ ⁣ Now, I don’t know if y’all know my book bestie Laura @crofteereader, but her (alongside Indre @hooked.by.books), are the queens of sci-fi. ⁣ ⁣ That being said, Laura gave this book 4.5/5 stars! And if y’all know Laura, she has maybe 10 five star reads a year (and she reads 200+ books a year). ⁣ ⁣ Now I am even more excited to read this space book! ⁣ ⁣ Head to the comments to check out the awesome synopsis! While we may not be able to get books from Amazon, don’t forget that you can order Providence at many independent bookstores tomorrow! ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ Are there certain bookstagrammers that make you need a book once they endorse it? ⁣ ⁣ I have soooo many! But when Laura says a book is 5 star worthy, I don’t think, I run to grab a copy 😂⁣
Happy International Mermaid Day! 🧜🏾‍♀️⁣ ⁣ Today I’ve partnered with @TorTeen to tell you about the upcoming debut release of 𝐀 𝐒𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐁𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐰 𝐖𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫 by @bcmorrow (thank you @TorTeen for my gifted copy!), which releases June 2nd! ⁣ ⁣ This story features black sirens/mermaids living in an alternative Portland. 🧜🏾‍♀️🧜🏾⁣ ⁣ Clearly, I am here for this #blackgirlmagic! 💁🏽‍♀️⁣ ⁣ Pre-order your copy of A Song Below by June 1st to receive a stunning enamel pin (swipe to see) while supplies last! The pre-order info is in my bio. ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ 𝑾𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒏𝒆𝒘 𝒓𝒆𝒍𝒆𝒂𝒔𝒆𝒔 𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒆𝒙𝒄𝒊𝒕𝒆𝒅 𝒇𝒐𝒓?⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #SirenSunday #ASongBelowWater #InternationalMermaidDay⁣ ⁣
