If you entered for this and your account is private, you need to make it public so I can see your post. 😎
  • Only a few chapters into this novel and I'm afraid to continue. Kinda feels like the author is preparing me for a major tragedy. Also, all of you claiming to have shed rivers of tears while reading this are not helping. Lord!! Give me strength. 🙏 🎀 What are you currently reading? P.s. There's a giveaway on my page right now. (See previous post)
  • If there's one thing I enjoy as much as collecting books, it's collecting bookish accessories. However, getting my hands on these collectibles has been as tough as trying to finish "Life of Pi" 😒 So, you can imagine my excitement when @bookgiftco came on my radar. Finally!! Something for book lovers in Nigeria 🇳🇬 🎀 What's in the box? - 1 Handmade journal for all your bookish thoughts. - 1 book sleeve to protect your books while you carry them everywhere with you. (My new best friend...😏) - 1 big tote for the book bosomed 😍 - A mug only a bookworm would appreciate. - Handmade scented candle, an organic handmade soap with that new book smell and a really cute bookmark. 🎀 I'll be giving away a @bookgiftco box to one lucky person. All you need to do is: - Follow @bookgiftco and @naijabookworm_ - Tag 2 book lovers to follow as well. - Repost this picture and tell us what your favourite item from the bookgiftco box is. Make sure you tag @bookgiftco and @naijabookworm_ - Winners will be selected randomly on the 5th of March. 🎀 This giveaway is not affiliated with Instagram and is open only to residents of Nigeria.
  • Not everytime epic novellas... Sometimes, your sweet tooth needs attention 😁😎 What are you reading?
  • Please ignore the crappy audio and appreciate the lyrics... 😁😁😁 🎀 I got introduced to Tiffany Haddish via Trevor Noah, naturally 😉, and she really is a ball of sunshine. 🎀 This is the first time ever I'll decide to read a book 'cos I watched an interview of the author. Tiffany Haddish is such a character, I needed to learn more... Plus Trevor looked like he was falling in love so I really did need to learn more, Lol. #oppositionresearch 🎀 If you're going to read #TheLastBlackUnicorn please choose audio. I promise you there's no better way to enjoy this book. Also, there's no music on paper. #BedtimeStories
  • Finally!! I get to carry this gorgeous book around Lagos... Hopefully, I'll also get to read it. 😁😁😁 🎀 I read this book for the first time in 2016 (Hard to believe that's 2 years already) and I can't wait to dive into it again for @bookaholicsbookclub 🎀 What are you reading right now?
  • When We Speak Of Nothing is a beautiful story to narrate. It’s one of those books I don’t appreciate until I have to talk about it. 🎀 The fact is it was a difficult book to read. I know… How hard can it be to read a 252 page novel with massive fonts?! The answer is, “Harder than you’d think”. 🎀 You can read my full review at the link in my bio 👆
  • First book of the year... Done and dusted. 🍁 You know, I haven't decided how I feel about this book. Such a powerful story, epic even... However, I found myself getting restless about 200 pages in. 🍁 Btw, this is exactly how I felt reading Zahrah The Windseeker and just like with that book, it was totally worth pushing myself to finish. 🍁 Will be sharing a proper review soon. In the meantime though, I'll list my fave things from #WhoFearsDeath 1. Luyu 2. ... Yep, that's it!! 🍁 Have you read this book? What was your favourite bit/thing/person?
  • Merry Christmas, People!! #BallingSanta #Christmas
