Old, worn hardback covers make my heart happy 🌙 If you find one in a library, bookstore or a secret nook, snap a photo and share it with us🌿

Spread the timeless joy of holding a beautiful book, that has passed different hands and filled many souls.

Have you read The Little Prince?👑

For me The Little Prince is proof that classics do not have to be "hard" or "academic" literature. Sure, we can go into great discussion, analysing the story word for word. However, it is one of those stories that you can enjoy from pre-school years (maybe with a little help from momma) through to adulthood, and with each stage of life, you will gain something new from the story. It is not a complicated read, but it is also not without depth and literary value. This is a book for everyone.

So, if you want to start a Classics Bucket List, but do not have a lot of confidence, then I highly suggest you start with The Little Prince. For a little dude in a tiny book, he has a lot to offer🌕

[ t h u r s d a y. t h o u g h t s ] ~ Almost week

[ t h u r s d a y. t h o u g h t s ]

Almost weekend, just hold on a little bit longer 😉

I started reading Priory of the Orange Tree for our book club's June pick. It's been a struggle. Two weeks. 20% in. Not feelin' any of the characters. However, I heard it gets better, and when it gets better, it gets a whole lot better. Apparently, amazing. So, I'm holding on to that piece of hope. It's just hard when you are already at chapter 11 and you are still not rooting for any of the characters.

Other than that, I'm also reading an Afrikaans novel, Droomdelwers by Esta Steyn. It's a prescribed book for Grade 11. I don't read a lot of Afrikaans, but I'm not far in, and I'm already finding it quite enjoyable. So, apparently Droomdelwers 1 Priory 0.

How is your reading going? Or what else are you up to lately?

Btw we love June. June is the best. So, I'm celebrating this week🎉

I'm a sucker for these vintage, almost gothic, hardbacks. Who cares if there's a little wear and tear (or a lot)? To me, it adds to the personality of the book.

How do you all feel about worn hardbacks?

Thanks to Liberty Books for finding me this gem. My first copy of Wuthering Heights was also a worn vintage copy that I spotted at Bikini Beach Books. So, this one will look great with the rest of nineteenth century collection🍂

Oh, look, a camera... Let me casually play with my hair while holding this book that I obviously always carry around.

Also, that granadilla plant behind me is nearly non-existent now. We had the cows in the garden yesterday and they had a feast. Today they just chased me around, hoping I'd give them more food. Which is a lot scarier than it sounds.

Btw, I actually do almost always carry a book around. Whenever I run out of the house I'll grab a random copy closest to me, just in case I get bored wherever I'm heading. Whether I'm on my way to the mall or something work-related. So, yes, I am ALWAYS prepared for a bookish photoshoot.

Do you do the same? Or am I being a bit extra with all my bookish baggage? I also make sure to always a have pen and notebook at hand, in case it's more of a writing, than reading atmosphere.

ALSO: I feel like I could almost lead a post-apocalyptic gang in this outfit. However, I also look like some version of Justin Bieber here. What else is needed, to make it post-apocalyptic outfit perfect?
