yes, i posted this a day late. oops

City of Ghosts by Victoria Schwab comes out soon and I am so excited! The exact release date is August 28th, 2018. She quickly became one of my favorite authors by not only her books but how hard she works and her overall personality. she’s truly the wonder woman of book writing i mean she’s written about 14 books in 7 years? that’s insane! they’re all so good too ♡ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

qotd: have you read City of Ghosts yet? Are you planning to buy it when it comes out? i am :-)

good afternoon! i decided to enter another rep search because i love the look of these candles + the entire aesthetic of the company. so, hello! my name is kippen and i’m an 18 year old book blogger and amateur artist. i’m from the US but I miss Canada every day. I’m specifically fond of fantasy books but I’ll fall in love with a coming of age novel on occasion. Some of my favorite books are The Raven Boys, The Kite Runner, Into the Wild, and Fangirl. As for my love for candles, I love anything that reminds me of home aka balsam cedar, fire, and pumpkin spice. ♡ not to mention, The Raven Boys would match all of these scents perfectly.

as someone who’s been blogging for years and just recently starting taking bookstagram seriously, being a rep would totally motivate me to step up my game. i have so many ideas for creative photos and would love to include these candles within them. ♡ a quick mention that any of these photos will probably be transferred over to my blog (uponthepages.com) as most of my instagram posts get transferred over as life updates. 

as for what i've done today, i've just been taking pictures for my blog + instagram. i went for a walk with my dog earlier and i'll probably read some more tonight. not a busy day!

i’m not doing much today because of how insanely hot it is in Florida but i am working on my blog. I've scheduled a bunch of posts and wrote my review for What If It's Us. It'll be going up September 20th, 2018! Be sure to look out for that. It'll go on my blog first + then it'll be uploaded to Goodreads. I went out to my favorite coffee shop with my friend Julia and chatted for a while. I've been super stressed lately about job hunting and school coming up but it was nice to just chill out for a bit.
