Yoo hoo! *waves hanky* It's me again with another special delivery!
Did you know that today is Book Lover's Day? No? Well, neither did I until Shaylmesse (#13314) brought it to my attention-- and I'm blushing to have to admit my ignorance, because there are few greater pleasures than curling up with a good book! If you're like me and would just love to have your own little personal library, why don't you try Shaylmesse's gift on for size?
The Book Lover's Background is available in the Advent Calendar for the duration of today and tomorrow, up until August 10th, 11:59pm.
Ooh, but wait! There's more!
Tell me your favourite book (and why!) in the comments and you could be in with a chance of winning this set of custom crystals! I'm in need of some good new holiday reads and I'm sure I can't be the only one. :3 Chime in by August 10th, 11:59pm to ensure your spot in the draw (one entry per account, please).
Ooh, but wait! There's even more!!!
Do you remember I mentioned earlier in the week that I was having a tidy of my inbox? The invitation (and encouragement!) to nudge your outstanding Artist Pay is still open, but today I am asking you to bump up PMs pertaining to Lunarii switches. That means if you picked up the wrong Lunaris for the month and you're still waiting on me to swap 'em around for you, point yourself to my inbox sharpish!
Phew! Okay! That's everything - probably! Who knows! Yay! Exclamation marks!
Thank you for the background, Shaylmesse!
Just smell those new pages!

It's a bit old and for a very young audience, but my favourite book of all time has been 'Guess How Much I Love You,' by Sam McBratney.
I remember my mum reading it to me when I was little, and I still know the entire book by heart. There's always something really warming about it???? I don't know haha, I just love it ugh. It is such a good book and I hope it stays around for more parents to share with their babs. Ja.

One of the most read books on my shelf is Hitching Rides with Buddha. It's a fun takeon Japanese culture through the eyes of a humorous Canadian, but through all the laughs and giggles, there are scattered these little hints of beautiful poignancy that really resonate with you. I went from crying with laughter to crying real tears. Whether you love Japanese culture or just want a humanistic real-life tale, it delivers, and it is one of my go-to pick-me-up books and has been since it came out.

My favorite book is actually a series, it's George R.R. Martins A Sonf of Ice & Fire. The story is fantastic and the characters are so well developed that its hard not to get immersed in the world and experience the story along with them. It is the best series that I have ever read.

I'm going to have to say "The Wheel of Time" series by Robert Jorden (and Brandon Sanders after Robert Jorden passed on without finishing the last few books in the series). It has everything I love in a book. Relatable characters, fantasy, magic, love, war, internal conflicts, and so much more. I have read through the books mulipule times and it only ever gets better! If your a fan of fantasy novels and haven't read the "The Wheel of Time" then it is a must read!

Love Medicine by Louise Erdrich - It's an amazing book and portrays life for American Indians so realistically. It has driven me to try to learn more about that part of my heritage.
