Enjoying my day of annual leave with this BEAUTIFUL set of Jane Austen's work. It's a great way to keep me distracted and at home during social distancing. #booksofinstagram #JaneAusten #prideandprejudice #socialdistancing #readinginbed

Emotional, amusing and heartbreaking. #Queenie is so much more than the modern Bridget Jones. Hope to see Candice Carty-Williams win the #womensprizeforfiction #candicecartywilliams #bookstagram #booksbooksbooks #readinginbed #Bookstagrammer

All the ingredients for a perfect Sunday. Emma's probably my favourite here. What's yours? . #HardTimes #senseandsensibility #Emma #janeausten #charlesdickins #wutheringheights #PenguinClassics #penguin #Bookstagram #readinginbed

I read this months ago and I'm still excited because *whisper* I finally know what happened to Offred... . When I opened #TheTestaments I expected a brass band to start playing and fireworks to jump out from the beautiful (yes, they're beautiful) endpapers. 20 years after I first read #TheHandmaidsTale I was creeping back to Gilead. . This pageturner is very different from its predecessor. Three female narrators introduce us to the aunts' terrifying, twisty-turny world. Even though my expectations were unrealistically high, this is an enjoyable read with plenty of suspense and political commentary. What did you think? #margaretatwood #Bookstagram #Bookstagrammer #booksbooksbooks #bookdragon

A big thank you to the friend who bought me Last Christmas. It's packed with beautiful and sometimes bitter-sweet reminiscences of the holiday season. A percentage of the book's profits go to @crisis_uk and the #RefugeeCouncil. #ChristmasEve #lastchristmas #Bookstagrammer #Bookstagram #christmas #booksbooksbooks #amreading

Dr Ruth Galloway is on the case! I've curled up under a warm blanket for some holiday escapism. #EllyGriffiths' series follows a forensic archeologist. Ruth has a penchant for crime solving and a (very) close relationship with the local police. #drruthgalloway #readinginbed #booksbooksbooks #amreading #currentlyreading #booksofinstagram

Bringing a bit of magic to my bedside table. No matter how old I get, I'll always love these books. Now, where's my Hogwarts letter...? . #jkrowling #harrypotter #readinginbed #Bookstagrammer #Bookstagram #harrypotterandthephilosophersstone #booksbooksbooks

Where would you hide a body? How far would you go to protect a sibling? Korede knows. . When her beautiful, reckless little sister calls her in the night, she knows it's time to move a corpse... again. . Ayoola is a serial killer, bumping off her boyfriends left, right and centre while practical nurse Korede becomes a serial enabler, with a talent for scrubbing up blood Ayoola spills. . I wish I'd read Oyinkan Braithwaite's debut novel sooner. It's darkly funny and the bite-sized, disjointed chapters make a quick, compelling read. . Have you read this? What did you think? . #bookstagram #Bookstagrammer #readinginbed #booksbooksbooks #oyinkanbraithwaite #mysistertheserialkiller #amreading #currentlyreading
