I feel like all of us bookworms have been there before: standing in a bookstore or browsing Amazon when all of a sudden your eye catches on a book title and the temptation arises to buy it purely based on the prettiness of the cover. Most likely, you’ll end up buying it, too.
Covers aren’t the only thing pleasing to the eye, though: there’s stained pages, decked edges, and imprints on hardcovers. As a person who spends a lot of time taking pictures of books, here are some that look beautiful on camera and absolutely delicious displayed on my shelf!
With fall just around the corner, I thought I would share some of my favorite books I read in the month of August! I was able to catch up on some new releases last month and discovered some books I really enjoyed! Here is a complete list of what I managed to read in August:
• And I Darken, by Kiersten White
• The Graces, by Laure Eve
• Steeplejack, by A. J. Hartley
• This Adventure Ends, by Emma Mills
• Environmentally Friendly, by Elias Zanbaka
• Rebel Bully Geek Pariah, by Erin Jade Lange
• My Sister’s Keeper, by Jodi Picoult
• Out of the Easy, by Ruta Sepetys
• The Raven Boys, by Maggie Stiefvater
• How it Feels to Fly, by Kathryn Holmes
• With Malice, by Eileen Cook
Without further ado, onto my favorites!
As a lover of fantasy, I’ve ready many books from this genre. Magical fantasy, adventurous fantasy, romantic fantasy, you name it! These are some of my favorite series, so I hope you are able to find some recommendations!
10. How to Train Your Dragon, by Cressida Cowell.
This hilarious middle grade series follows a boy named Hiccup and his dragon, Toothless. I started this series in my preteen years and finished it in my teen years. I loved the characters who never failed to make me laugh. Oh, and it’s nothing like the film adaption.
