What's on the bookcase?


The Bookcase Beauty

We are kicking off this week with the *perfect* Fourth Wing cocktail, a new staple hair product, the winning results from my quest to find the perfect jeans, and some BIG news buzzing around the book world!

Hello, friends!

Do you feel that?! It's my buzzing elation that the Texas Rangers won the World Series last week! We celebrated big here in Texas! Some school districts canceled school so that our communities could attend the victory parade!

Even book club queen Jenna Bush Hager was thrilled!

In HUGE book news, you may have heard that Iron Flame, the second book in the Empyrean series by Rebecca Yarros, publishes tomorrow!

Fourth Wing, the first of five books in series, took the book world by storm this year. It brought in non-fantasy readers like myself into a world of war college and dragons.

You can read my full review of Fourth Wing here. You can also prepare for your read of Iron Flame with this celebratory cocktail!

Be sure to check out the special offer for newsletter friends at the bottom of this email!

“A dragon without its rider is a tragedy.
A rider without their dragon is dead.”
Rebecca Yarros, Fourth Wing

On the Shelf

Fourth Wing is coming to the screen!

In all of this Iron Flame excitement, let us not forget the exciting news released last week: Fourth Wing will become a series on Amazon Studios! Everything we know is at the link below!

The Woman in Me by Britney Spears is this month's book club pick!

I'm thrilled to share that my book club is reading The Woman in Me by Britney Spears as our Nonfiction November pick. You can read my review of this long-awaited memoir right here. Want to read with us? Join below!

Are you ready for Nonfiction November?

Random fact about about me: I love alliteration. So, "Nonfiction November" is very motivating to me. I don't read a ton of nonfiction, but I always take November to explore this genre a little more. Here's a short list of nonfiction books I loved, if you want to participate too!

It's cover reveal season!

Last week, there was a wave of cover reveals from some of my favorite authors! Katherine Center, Christina Lauren, and Elin Hilderbrand all revealed the covers of their summer 2024 releases! Luckily, I saw Katherine Center's new cover just in time. I was able to include it in the 'thank you' gift I made to show my gratitude for joining her at the premiere of Happiness for Beginners on Netflix. Want an ornament of your favorite author's books?

Two Winning Pairs of Jeans

A few weeks ago, I put out an all-call for your favorite jeans brands. You came through! The top brands were: Abercrombie, American Eagle, and Madewell. I also explored a few online boutiques and landed on Arrow22. I bought a pair of jeans from Abercrombie and Arrow22. Something to note, the structures are total opposites. The Abercrombie are stiff and thick, and the Arrow22 are thin and flexible. Both fit true to size. I love both of them!

This new product tames the flyaways

This new product changed the way I fix my hair. It's fantastic at smoothing down flyaway hairs and fits easily in your bag or for travel. It's about the size of a mini deodorant stick. I slide it down my hair after I'm done and all my flyaways calm right down!

****Don't forget to grab your 2024 Reading Journal before the holiday rush. You can use the code "NEWSLETTER" through Friday, 11/10 for 20% off!
