{outfit} Books and Braids

This is one of my more whimsical blazers yet it is still totally wearable because of the limited amount of colors. I feel like a bit of a fraud when I wear it because I don't read as much as I should. I've been doing a lot better this year and a half and have read a good amount. All of Game of Thrones, the Percy Jackson series, Me Before You (to prepare for Matt Lewis being in the film version), The Casual Vacancy and all of J.K. Rowling's Cormoran Strike books. Plus a few more fluffy reads (The Man Repeller and As You Wish) and rereading a few things. I'm currently reading The Heroes of Olympus, the second series in Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson world.

I was a little late to the game reading Rowling's 4 latest books even though I bought them all right when they were released. I had to buy them to support her but didn't think they would be my style. The Casual Vacancy DEFINITELY wasn't me, but I've really been enjoying her books under the pseudonym Robert Galbraith.  I read the third novel in her Cormoran Strike series in 2 days when it came out at the end of October.  P.S. If you've read the books and like them, check out my friend's new podcast: The Strike Files.

  6. That is such a fun blazer! :)

    I've really struggled to read books this year, I need to try and make more time for it as it's a lovely way to relax and unwind! I've only managed 2 or 3, so you're doing better than me!
