galaxy

Caught up in your stardust
kisses, I reach for my brush
and paint a galaxy with only
you in it.

-Our little piece of heaven at the edge of the world.

‘Anna gets my old Barbican doll, | and my Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. | Anna gets my dungarees | and all of my other old clothes, too. | I notice when Anna plays | with my Turtles, no one asks her why. | I notice when Anna wears | my dungarees, no one comments. | I’m glad she is free to play | and dress however she feels happy.’ ~ This book is w powerful coming of age story, diving deep into our modern times. It celebrates being different, yet does not shy away from adversity, making the overall message even more emotive. A must read for teens and adults alike. #theblackflamingo #deanatta #queer #lgbtq #literature #amreading #youngadultfiction #ya #bookstagram

A Booker Prize winner, and one of my favourite fantasy writers...Two completely different books, voices and messages, yet two amazing stories...this is how I’m celebrating #iwd2020 #femalewriters #amreading #readingwomen #bookstagram #sundays #beautifulbooks #femalevoices #bernadineevaristo #sarahjmaas #reading

Take a moment to eye-cuddle my gorgeous pup on this Saturday morning 🌅 #mornings #dogs #bichonfrise #polaroid #polaroidphotography #photography #saturday #blackandwhite #calm

Lyrical, potent, magical, mysterious, and at times haunting. I have just finished Akala’s debut YA novel and was blown away by this story. Set in Shakespearian London, ‘The Dark Lady’ will appeal to anyone who loves to be swept away by powerful words and stunning story telling. Akala’s message about society, race and identity is so important and will identify with a lot of teenagers (even with a magical realist-Renaissance London backdrop)- and should be revered and praised for its heart and tenacity. Passionate and uncompromising; despite the destruction, there is the promise of hope at the end of this book, as well as an ensuing mystery with regards to the dark lady...I can’t wait to see what follows! #thedarklady #akala #ya #magicalrealism #fantasy #amreading #proof #beautifulbooks #renaissancelondon #historicalfiction #fiction #morningreads #bookstagram

This book was a dream! If you’re feeling a little out of touch with yourself and need some tips to get yourself back on track then this is a must! Sarah Harvey writes in such a simple, kind and soothing way which is complimented by aesthetically pleasing images 🌅 #morningroutine #beautifulbooks #bookstagram #kaizen #selfhelp #selfcare #amreading #coffeeandbooks

Been dipping into this amazing little nugget during my lunchtimes. I honestly have no idea why I didn’t know over 80% of the stuff in this book. An absolute essential read. #bookstagram #periodpower #massiehill #lunchtimereading #amreading #selfhelp #bookstagrammer #mustreads #januaryreads #coffee #coffeeandbooks

When you’re sick sometimes you just need your book, a blanket, and that special someone 📖 | I’m currently reading Ovid’s Metamorphoses - I originally picked it up from the library about 3 years ago but I’m determined to finish it this year! I loved it back then and it inspired a great deal of my uni work | ‘Love is the force that leaves you colourless’ | #bookstagram #amreading #ovid #metamorphoses #myths #sickdays #relaxing #cosy #bookshelf #readinggoals #2020reads

📸 1, 2, or 3 || My lovely little Instax experiments. I really enjoy paying with the exposure, especially on a bright sunny day because you never know how the film is going to turn out 🌅 They’re all pieces of art in my eyes ... || Thinking back to my weekend exploring to push me on through the week #art #instax #instaxmini #photography #weekend #exploring #creative #adventure #rest #creativecommunity #naturephotography #brighton #brightonpier #westpier #beach

Nikita Gill’s ‘Great Goddesses’ was a lovely collection which I easily devoured in a day. I feel like this is the type of poetry which you could read again and again, in completely different moods, and easily be able to take a completely different message and feeling each time. Would highly recommend if you already have a love/interest for Greek mythology. | ... ‘Aphrodite, the Goddess of breathless romances, of honeyed breaths, of feverishly promises forever. They are too blind to see how often love is smoke and mirrors, used to ensnare like a hunter does a stag.’ | #greatgoddesses #nikitagill #poetry #sundaymornings #mornings #amreading #greekmythology #myths #bookstagram

Creative Friday morning 🎨 #watercolour #painting #relaxing #creative #nature #naturepainting #mornings

Starting the year off with this amazing book by @robgmacfarlane 🎆🌅 | ‘Underland’ is a gorgeous exploration of the land beneath the earth. It intricately weaves together a fascinating discourse of the natural world, science, civilisation and mythology... | ‘The sound of this starless river is like none I have ever heard. It has volume. Its volume has hollowness. Each sound has its echo, and each echo has its interior.’ | #gift #bookstagram #newyearreading #newbooks #nature #beautifulbook #underland #mythology
