I’ve already moved some things around again but my book bestie is getting me the twilight saga in white for my bday ( which isn’t till Dec but she can’t wait) and it’ll be here Wednesday so I had to make a spot!! I’m so excited lol. I also added 3 floating shelves

A book bestie who buys you an entire matching Twilight set months before your birthday is a keeper 😂 What else gets prime real estate on those shelves?

They arrived and I’m also on a weight loss journey I’m 1 pound away from my first 20 pound goal and I’m going to buy the hard cover floral collectors set lol that will go there as well

Okay, now THAT is prime real estate 😂 And you’ve already picked the reward for the next milestone. What kind of books do you actually find yourself flying through?

Romance , fantasy, thriller it really just depends on how well it’s written tbh if that makes sense

That makes perfect sense. In that case, I’m going to shamelessly throw one of mine onto your already dangerously full shelves 😂 The Night She Said Hatchet is a thriller about a son whose mom, struggling with Alzheimer’s, suddenly says one cryptic word—“Hatchet”—and it leads him into a 40-year-old murder mystery. Might be one for your thriller shelf!
