It’s Tuesday & you know what that means? My review of #MeBeforeYou is up and running on #IfTheReviewFits! Go check it out to see what I thought, read a little of the plot, and take a gander at my infographic. 🤓📚 Also, isn’t this view amazing? This was the view from our hotel balcony during our honeymoon last May. We definitely made the right choice in upgrading to this room b/c wow. 😍 . . . . #keepingupwithaskillings #omniinterlocken #broomfield #ultralight #jojomoyes #mebeforeyou #icedcoffee #swimming #pools #reading #bookstagram #comeback #themechange #booklover #romance #afterlight #tezzapresets #poolside #summer #honeymoon #novel #bibliophile #blogger

Shortly after posting my bed tray picture, I chose to read #BirdBox! If you have an overactive imagination like me, this book will more than likely leave you hiding from your windows. The movie already gave me a boatload of anxiety, but reading it and actually being placed INSIDE the story is a hundred times worse! @joshmalerman, if I didn’t have to take breathers, I would’ve ran through this book. Although, a part of me is glad that I have to. It’s hard for me to find books that’ll keep me up at night, and this one definitely takes the cake so far. 🦅📦 . . Also!!! If you want recommendations, reviews, or to see my collections, then check out the link in my bio! 📚 . . #netflixbirdbox #birdboxbook #joshmalerman #thriller #psychologicalthriller #ultralight #tezzapresets #keepingupwithaskillings #warmlighting #onlythegooddieyoung #iwillsurvive #succulents #summervacay #bookstagram #tbr #blogger #ifthereviewfits #bookreviews #collegestudent #englishmajor #psychmajor #overactiveimagination #psychology #allbeethereforyou #dial #netflixadaptation #decoupage #pinterest

When summer started, my brain jumpstarted into creativity mode. It’s amazing what not having deadlines and classes that stifle your creativity can do! For this tray, my dog tore up one of my books (don’t fret, I replaced it), so I decoupaged it onto the bottom, found a bunch of simple art and quotes, and took it from there! Now I just have to find a way to make it waterproof so I can actually use it. Does anyone know of anything? I’m kind of new to this, so I don’t want to take my chances. . . Also, I finished Me Before You last night and now I’m at a loss. I have around 200 books I still need to read and I can’t quite figure out which one should go next, in which genre, and by what author. What are you guys reading? . . #diy #keepingupwithaskillings #ikea #mountains #nature #projects #creativity #jillofalltrades #jojomoyes #mebeforeyou #summervacay #englishmajor #psychmajor #bibliophile #bibliomane #mylove #colorado #home #homedecor #decoupage #writer #blogger #bookstagram #projects #gentlemadness #warmlighting #ultralight #tezzapresets

I’ve been sitting on this photo debating on whether or not I want to start changing up my theme. So, here I am, making an attempt to make it a little warmer for summer. I feel as though sticking to a theme has been what’s making me feel so icky about keeping up with this IG. During the summer I don’t have time to redecorate my bookshelf for a shoot, or wait for the right kind of lighting. So, I’m going to back down a little and post photos with the same kind of editing - just warmer. Also, sometime soon I should have more blogs up. I’ve been crafting a lot sooo get ready for some diy summer project updates and maybe a whole blog about our elopement/honeymoon. 🤓📚 . . #keepingupwithaskillings #omniinterlocken #broomfield #ultralight #jojomoyes #mebeforeyou #icedcoffee #swimming #pools #reading #bookstagram #comeback #themechange #booklover #romance #afterlight #tezzapresets #poolside #summer #honeymoon #novel #bibliophile #blogger

After 5 1/2 years of being together and 4 1/2 years of being engaged, on May 10, 2019, “Reader, I (FINALLY) married him.” 👰🏻💗🤵🏻 . . Thank you @simplyeloped and @alightphotog for making this possible. 💗 #janeeyre #bookquotes #charlottebronte #allbeethereforyou2019 #wedding #simplyeloped #married #bouldercolorado #chautauquapark #nineperfectstrangers #lianemoriarty #bookstagram #classics #coloradoweddings #englishmajor #psychmajor #cudenver #readerimarriedhim #blogger #writer #mayweddings #elopement #bookishquotes #davidsbridal #pandora

Hi guys, I’m alive! I’ve just been pushing through the end of the semester and I can’t believe it’s been a month since my last post on here. With school ending and a major life event coming up, I’m basically losing all of my hair! However, as soon as May 17th comes around, I promise I will start creating. Until then though, enjoy this aloe plant I’ve managed to keep alive for a few months now! If you know me, you know I’m notorious for killing succulents, and it’s still hard for me to believe I have 5 healthy ones in my room now. 🌿💗 . . So! When summer’s here get ready for more life updates, more photos, more blogs, more reading, and more #bookstagram! School has been killing my drive to take/edit photos and my drive to generally CREATE that it’s just been depressing. Although, once I get back in the swing of things, y’all have my pinky promise that I’ll be more present in the #bookish community. I just appreciate you all continuing to keep up with me, and I hope y’all know @allbeethereforyou always. 😜 . . #camels #allbeethereforyou #succulents #aloeplants #bookstagram #ikeabillybookcase #tezzapresets #tezzaapp #ultralight #march2019 #iphone8plus #bookmail #bookphotography #booksubscription #newreads #englishmajor #writer #thrillers #battleofhogwarts #reading #bookblogger #goals #bookishgoals #booklyapp #newmonth

Sorry it’s been so long, but I finally tried @ablinddatewithabook! Swipe to see the reveal of these descriptions. 😍📚 . . #blinddatewithabook #thehoursbeforedawn #unwrapping #unboxing #thekey #dancingoverthehill # #botm #bookstagram #ikeabillybookcase #tezzapresets #tezzaapp #ultralight #march2019 #iphone8plus #bookmail #bookphotography #booksubscription #newreads #englishmajor #writer #thrillers #psychologicalthriller #sethfried #reading #bookblogger #goals #bookishgoals #booklyapp #goodreads #newmonth

I’ll have to say... @bookofthemonth has to be my fave book subscription so far. I used to only look for subs that came with bookish goodies, but I really don’t miss all of it. This box comes with books that end up on the best sellers list, they come highly recommended from well-known authors, and I’ve never had to skip a month b/c I didn’t like the choices. Also, if any of this has sold y’all on this sub... message me for a referral link! It’ll save both of us money. 🤪📚♥️🤘🏻 . . #themunicipalists #marchbotm #botm #bookstagram #ikeabillybookcase #tezzapresets #tezzaapp #ultralight #march2019 #iphone8plus #beforesheknewhim #bookphotography #booksubscription #newreads #technothriller #peterswanson #englishmajor #writer #thrillers #psychologicalthriller #sethfried #reading #bookblogger #goals #bookishgoals #booklyapp #goodreads
