What was the last book you purchased for yourself What was the last book you purchased for yourself or got from the library? πŸ“–
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I've said it before and I'll say it a million more times (πŸ˜…): I don't purchase books unless I've read them first (my few exceptions being sequels for series I love or auto-buy authors) πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ Needless to say, I'm pretty picky about which books I DO spend my money on πŸ’³
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I recently did a bit of a haul from Book Outlet during their mega fiction sale and here's what I snagged:
β˜•οΈ Legends & Lattes
πŸ•°οΈ In Five Years
🌲 Lost in the Never Woods
πŸ₯€ Girl, Serpent, Thorn
🎀 XOXO
πŸ₯§ Crumbs
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €

What are your favorite adult fantasy series? βš”οΈ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
A few years ago, I devoured The Daevabad Trilogy and completely fell in love with the absolutely magnificent world-building 😍
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Adult fantasy can be tricky if you're used to the pacing in YA fantasy, but after some time, you might find that you really enjoy the way that the story develops πŸ™ŒπŸΌ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Some of my favorite completed adult fantasy series:
πŸ’š The Green Bone Saga (Jade City, Jade War, Jade Legacy)
πŸ§›πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ All Souls (A Discovery of Witches, Shadow of Night, The Book of Life)
🐺 The Wilderwood (For the Wolf, For the Throne)
⏳ Shades of Magic (A Darker Shade of Magic, A Gathering of Shadows, A Conjuring of Light)

β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I've asked this in the past, but I'm curious how the answers might change since so many books have come out in the last several years that I think would fit this perfectly πŸ‘ŒπŸΌ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I don't have many IRL friends who enjoy reading, but I have been lucky enough to recommend books to fiction newbies in the past and I usually start with The Midnight Library! πŸ“š I think it's a book everyone should read (but that's because it saved my life, so it's very special to me) and I especially recommend it during May, Mental Health Awareness Month! πŸ’š

β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I certainly felt that about a few of the books I read this past month, but especially:
πŸ«– The Tea Dragon Society - this entire MG graphic novel trilogy just warmed my heart so much. It's precious and wonderful and if you haven't read it, please do because you won't be able to wipe the smile off your face.
πŸ” Vera Wong's Unsolicited Advice for Murderers - within the first couple of chapters, I was belly-laughing so hard I was crying. This was hilarious and adorable and I didn't want it to end. I immediately began recommending it to everyone. 
⛱️ Happy Place - because of course! I mean, this book did make me sob my eyes out multiple times, but it also made me belly laugh more than once as well. It was perfect in every way and very quickly became my second fave of Emily's books (just after PWMOV)!
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Thank goodness I'm a big fan of rereading because I know I'll be revisiting all of these books again in the future πŸ™ŒπŸΌ

The Ultimate Guide to the Best Online Bookish Shops

21 Fantastic Bookish Shops for You to Discover by The Espresso Edition cozy lifestyle and book blog

You asked, so I’ve delivered. In this post, you’ll find the master list of online bookish shops to check out!

This is something that has been requested multiple times on bookstagram, so I figured I’d finally put it together. It’s something I’ve wanted to do for quite some time and now it’s officially complete! Okay, not totally complete because I plan to continue adding to this list over time. I know that there are new bookish shops popping up every day and I want this to be a resource you can bookmark and come back to time and again to check for updated stores to browse.

The list I compiled is filled with stores that I’ve personally repped for and shopped from, along with a few suggestions from my fellow bookstagram friends. Keep on scrolling to begin shopping from of the incredible bookish companies! Keep on reading to check it out.

21 Fantastic Bookish Shops for You to Discover by The Espresso Edition cozy lifestyle and book blog

The Master List of Online Bookish Shops

The Espresso Edition

My own shop is officially open!

After thinking long and hard about it, I decided to open my own bookish shop. I launched with eight designs and I’ll be adding as I go. Right now, I’m using RedBubble, since they allow me to put my designs on a plethora of items and they ship for me! I hope you check it out and enjoy what I’ve created.

Janzy Wax Co

Bookish candles for everyone.

100% coconut wax candles (perfect for those with soy allergies or someone looking for a more sustainable option). This was the first company I ever “repped” for on bookstagram and I still seem to purchase 1-2 new candles for myself or a friend every couple of months because they’re just that good.

ESPRESSO10 for a discount.

Wicked Whimsy Boutique

All things dark, lovely, and bookish.

I’ve found some of the most unique bookish items from this shop (including a custom ADSOM mug that I just love). They’ve got such a great selection. In fact, I never “officially” repped for them, but they were nice enough to still provide a discount code because I couldn’t stop talking about how great they are.

ESPRESSO10 for a discount.

The Seasonal Pages

The Seasonal Pages

Bookish stationary shop.

If you were to open any book that I’m in the process of reading, you would find a bookmark from The Seasonal Pages holding my spot. I’ve also been so lucky to work as a freelance photographer for this company as well!

ESPRESSO15 for a discount.

Storiarts

Where style meets literature. Every Storiarts purchase helps kids worldwide learn to read, write, & create.

This company not only has beautiful literary items, but they also support an incredible cause. Part of every purchase goes to LitWorld, an organization that helps tackle illiteracy worldwide.

ESPRESSO for a discount.

Lit Love Book Box

Lit Love Book Box

Canada’s most delicious book subscription box

Books, chocolate, and coffee? It doesn’t get much better than that! The coffee and book lovers monthly subscription box has all sorts of grand goodies. You can also subscribe to the indulge box or purchase special edition new releases for all your favorite authors!

STEPH5 for a discount.

Steeped in Lore

Steeped in Lore

The tale grew in the brewing.

While I chat about coffee quite often, I’m actually a huge fan of tea as well. In fact, on the day I wrote this post, I actually whipped up a honey chamomile latte with cinnamon and it was divine. Needless to say, I can’t get enough of these bookish teas!

Romantasy Designs

Romantasy Designs

Bookish small business.

Ah, romantasy – the beautiful blend of romance and fantasy that so many readers crave, myself often included. This shop has some gorgeous designs for some of the most popular romantasy fandoms. They ship to both the US and the UK from their website, and globally from their Etsy shop!

JordandenΓ©

JordandenΓ©

Fandom in everyday fashion.

This shop is full of geek chic goodness and I constantly find myself wanting to buy up ALL of the VE Schwab merch. I’ve purchased several mugs from this website as gifts for my friends.

Book Chic Boutique

Book Chic Boutique

Handmade accessories for books and booklovers.

Truly, I’ve never seen a shop with so many beautiful booksleeves to choose from. Every time there’s a new drop of items, I find myself wanting each and every one of them!

Novel Grounds

Novel Grounds

Literary inspired designs for the reader.

This is another store that carries items you won’t find anywhere else. I’m constantly surprised by the updated designs and how they appeal to a really broad selection of readers!

The Dear Writer Co

The Dear Writer Co

A bookish shop for those living between the pages.

If I had the option to literally live in graphic tees, I would do so in a heartbeat. This shop has some of the cutest bookish graphic tees I’ve seen (and naturally, I want them all).

Willow & Quill

Willow & Quill

Vintage meets modern.

There’s something so incredibly calming about this particular shop. They carry a lot of minimal, neutral items and focus on things like bookmarks, blind dates with a book, and aesthetically pleasing booksleeves.

Caffeine and Curses

Caffeine and Curses

Represent your favorite books in style.

Whether you’re a fan of classics or contemporary, fantasy or dark academia, this store has something for everyone! I’m constantly swooning over their gorgeous designs.

Bibliophile Trove

Bibliophile Trove

Everything and anything bookish.

Looking for a floral resin dagger? How about a unique art print? Maybe you’re a fan of stickers! You can find everything at this wonderful shop, which happens to be owned by a seriously creative and talented friend of mine.

Fable Grounds Coffee

Fable Grounds Coffee

Coffee fresh roasted in small batches for the book lover!

I can’t even begin to tell you how much I love these coffees. I’ve ordered from them several times and really can’t rave enough. In fact, now that I’m talking about them, I’m considering adding a few new bags to my cart.

Library Lights Candle Co

Library Lights Candle Co

Coconut wax candles inspired by books.

Disclaimer on this shop: after chatting with them a while back, they did tell me that they don’t use 100% coconut wax, but rather a blend of coconut and soy, so if you’re allergic to soy, be aware! However, if you’re not allergic or you only have a mild sensitivity, you’ll love these beautiful bookish scents.

Literary Lip Balms

Literary Lip Balms

Natural apothecary of scents and stories.

This shop was recommended to me by a friend on bookstagram and I am totally hooked! After discovering that they don’t use ingredients I’m allergic to, I knew I had to get my hands on as many of their divine items as possible. I mean – “Dirtyhands” cleansing spray? YES, PLEASE.

Bookish Wonder

Bookish Wonder

Small shop of curiosities.

Looking for apparel? How about accessories? Maybe you’re in the mood for some bookmarks or stationery? Oohh or possibly some home decor? This shop has it all! Seriously, they have just about everything bookish you could possibly want.

& She Reads Co

& She Reads Co

Cozy vibes only.

Well, excuse me everyone while I go and drool over the beautiful mugs (and more) from this shop. This is a recent find of mine and now I want to make my wallet cry a little bit.

Fandom Sleeves

Fandom Sleeves

Bookish merch for book lovers.

You read that name and you might think that they only sell booksleeves – but, you’d be wrong! They also have cute t-shirts, scrunchies, and more. Such a great shop to browse.

Fiction Bath Co

Fiction Bath Co

Transporting you from one fictional world to the next, one pamper session at a time.

If you browse through bookstagram, you’ve probably seen this shop show up at least once because they are super popular! And unsurprisingly so, when they’ve got such a great selection! Sure, they have candles and soaps, but they also have mugs, tees, and so much more!

I've said it before and I'll say it a million more times (πŸ˜…): I don't purchase books unless I've read them first (my few exceptions being sequels for series I love or auto-buy authors) πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ Needless to say, I'm pretty picky about which books I DO spend my money on πŸ’³
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I recently did a bit of a haul from Book Outlet during their mega fiction sale and here's what I snagged:
β˜•οΈ Legends & Lattes
πŸ•°οΈ In Five Years
🌲 Lost in the Never Woods
πŸ₯€ Girl, Serpent, Thorn
🎀 XOXO
πŸ₯§ Crumbs

I was SO thrilled when I saw @kristinaforest's announcement for The Partner Plot, an adult romance that follows Violet (the older sister of Lily from The Neighbor Favor) and her high school sweetheart 🩷 It's coming out in the spring of 2024 and I'm already counting down the days until it's in my hands πŸ™ŒπŸΌ

What are your favorite adult fantasy series? βš”οΈ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
A few years ago, I devoured The Daevabad Trilogy and completely fell in love with the absolutely magnificent world-building 😍
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Adult fantasy can be tricky if you're used to the pacing in YA fantasy, but after some time, you might find that you really enjoy the way that the story develops πŸ™ŒπŸΌ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Some of my favorite completed adult fantasy series:
πŸ’š The Green Bone Saga (Jade City, Jade War, Jade Legacy)
πŸ§›πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ All Souls (A Discovery of Witches, Shadow of Night, The Book of Life)
🐺 The Wilderwood (For the Wolf, For the Throne)
⏳ Shades of Magic (A Darker Shade of Magic, A Gathering of Shadows, A Conjuring of Light)
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €

What's one book you'd recommend to someone just di What's one book you'd recommend to someone just diving into fiction for the first time? πŸ“–
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I've asked this in the past, but I'm curious how the answers might change since so many books have come out in the last several years that I think would fit this perfectly πŸ‘ŒπŸΌ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I don't have many IRL friends who enjoy reading, but I have been lucky enough to recommend books to fiction newbies in the past and I usually start with The Midnight Library! πŸ“š I think it's a book everyone should read (but that's because it saved my life, so it's very special to me) and I especially recommend it during May, Mental Health Awareness Month! πŸ’š
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
‼️ I’m taking the next week away from social media/blogging for my own mental health. I’ll probably be lurking some but please note that I won’t be updating much of anything til after the 15th 🫢🏼

Did you love any of your April reads so much that Did you love any of your April reads so much that you wanted to immediately turn around and read them again? 🀎
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I certainly felt that about a few of the books I read this past month, but especially:
πŸ«– The Tea Dragon Society - this entire MG graphic novel trilogy just warmed my heart so much. It's precious and wonderful and if you haven't read it, please do because you won't be able to wipe the smile off your face.
πŸ” Vera Wong's Unsolicited Advice for Murderers - within the first couple of chapters, I was belly-laughing so hard I was crying. This was hilarious and adorable and I didn't want it to end. I immediately began recommending it to everyone. 
⛱️ Happy Place - because of course! I mean, this book did make me sob my eyes out multiple times, but it also made me belly laugh more than once as well. It was perfect in every way and very quickly became my second fave of Emily's books (just after PWMOV)!
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Thank goodness I'm a big fan of rereading because I know I'll be revisiting all of these books again in the future πŸ™ŒπŸΌ
