In Iceland, Books Are Exchanged On Christmas Eve, And You Spend The Rest Of The Night Reading. People

In Iceland, books are exchanged on Christmas Eve, and you spend the rest of the night reading. People generally take their books to bed along with some chocolate. How cozy and wonderful does that sound? (More fun facts: Iceland publishes more books per capita than any other country, and new books are typically published only during the Christmas season—the frenzy is called Jólabókaflóð, or the Christmas Book Flood.)

I think I found a new tradition…

Yes, lets!

(via thisallegra)

Ahhhh let’s go!

The funny thing is, a few years ago, my family started a tradition where we get a secret santa and give books to the people we got, and its only me and my dad who are Irish

OMG I WOULD GET SO MANY COOL BOOKS (there I go again only thinking about myself. but seriously, you were thinking it too.)

Thats how I thought last year, and then I got a book that i'll never read

I just finished it and it feels like I've been stomped on. Repeatedly.

Good morning it's been 24 hours since I finished ACOWAR and guess what I'M STILL FRAGILE

Why?

Okay, so i have a book journal thing in my humanities class, and a prompt is what is the setting of your book. I chose Empire of Storms and I cant pick one place. Humanities teacher, prepare for a huge sentence with every place Aelin and her Court visited in the book

I showed a friend this mug that said, "High Fae in the streets, Illyrian Warrior in the sheets" and somehow that led to talking about the sex scene and now he's scarred for life(even more so) and now just keeps sending me fan art of those scenes, so, yeah....

Mkay so

I was talking to my friend earlier, about ACOTAR, cuz I never stop talking about it, right? And she never finished the first book because she didn’t like the fact that their relationship was built on sex.

So I was all like “Emma the character development with Feyre is insane, okay?” and she went, and I kid you not 

 "I bet the only developmentsbhe had was inside her.“

 And in the middle of science class I started slow clapping and laughing so loud the teacher stopped talking. It was great lmao

My family: ????

I want it, but I'm also terrified of it xD

Am I excited that ACOWAR is out in two months? No. I'm not. I'm petrified. Absolutely shaken to the core. You know it's gonna be agony. Happy, sad—agony is relative here.

“You’re gonna suffer, but you’re gonna be happy about it.”

I had a black cat that we sadly had to put down last year, but she was the sweetest thing on Earth. She would immediately cuddle up to you once you sat down, purr and drool on you.

fact, black cats are less likely to be adopted because of superstition. re blog if you love these little bundles of fur just as much as any other kitty.

Maeve was reaaaaaaaaly fucked up. Lets forget about Lyria for awhile and think how fucked up she is and how happy we'll be if Aelin destroys her.

I WILL NEVER GET OVER THE FACT THAT....

LYRIA AND HER TRUE MATE NEVER MET. AND THAT HE WILL BE FOREVER ALONE AND NOT KNOWING WHY.

Asikaia_Blueblood

Hello! I'm Asikaia! I love reading, playing video games, drawing and writing. My favorite books (if you haven't guessed by looking at my blog) are any Sarah J. Maas books, and many many more, my all-time favorite video game has to belong to Skyrim (although Horizon: Zero Dawn is really close). If you want to find out more about me, I have a Wattpad under the same name, where you can also find my stories! And, if you haven't guessed, my favorite artist is Halsey.
