What team are you rooting for? Thank you so much @librosmeansbooks for helping me put this list together. We’ve been gushing about the friendlies and upcoming matches and the World Cup overall since @booknetfest and I’m super excited for the real action to begin ⚽️ 🥅 Please let me know any other books from these countries that you loved in the comments, there are so many on this list that I hadn’t even heard of before that have peaked my interest #worldcup #booklist #readingrecommendations #bookstagram #readtheworld

As someone with a master’s in postcolonial literature, I can confirm that this is some colonizer 💩 I usually watch book drama from afar but this is one that truly baffles me. Some of my favorite takes so far have come from @tomesandtextiles @fromthemixedupdesk and @mrs.yang_reads but just know I’m engaging with every picture, video, and think piece that crosses my feed. And yes, she’s blocked #hotgirlsread #bookstagram #blackreaders

It’s been a week since @booknetfest and mentally, I’m still at Prom 🥹 I had the loveliest experience attending BNF for the second year in a row. This time, I was on 3 panels and we should have been required to bring tissues because someone kept cutting onions (or maybe that was just us feeling safe enough to release all of our frustrations, but who’s to say) Thank you @mynameismarines and @thoughtsontomes for organizing this wonderful event with such wonderful people 🫶🏾 (If I didn’t tag you, please let me know so I can add the tag. I couldn’t remember everyone’s usernames 🥲) #booknetfest #bookcon #bookevent #readercommunity #readtogether
