2 Year Bookstaversary 🥳🍾
#booksta #bookstaversary #bookwormsoflemon8
On 7/27 @jazzreads222 turned 2! I've come to really like using IG for things other than posting myself. Booksta is a cute corner of IG where I finally get to share my love for reading with others who feel the same. I don’t plan on leaving no time soon lol.
I’ve met so many good people, shared book experiences & recs. I’ve learned more about content creating. There were times I thought that my content wasn’t the best, but I’m constantly reminded by my bookstall friends that my content and reviews are loved!
God willing, I want to open an online shop selling mugs, bookmarks and other bookish things and share them with the booksta world.
Follow my bookstagram! @Jazzreads222 🩷
My Current Read
📖 Name of the Book: Between Friends & Lovers by Shirlene Obuobi
📄 Plot: To thousands of Instagram followers Josephine Boateng is the dazzling Dr. Jojo, and her opinions on health and self-love matter. Her message: be smart, be significant, and do not put up with foolish men.
Off-camera, Jo’s story is more complicated. She's grappling with depression and the pressures of her career, and her love life is nonexistent thanks to a longtime unrequited crush on her best friend, romcom heartthrob Ezra Adelman. But when Ezra shows up to his thirtieth birthday party with her childhood bully on his arm, Jo realizes enough is enough. It’s time to take her own advice and prioritize herself.
No one is more shocked than Malcolm Waters when his debut novel turns him into a literary darling, the type who gets invited to a swanky penthouse party to discuss film opportunities. Rubbing elbows with the elite of entertainment will be great for his career—except he's terrible with people, and even worse at networking.
Just when Malcolm is ready to throw in the towel, he’s rescued by none other than Dr. Jojo. He’s been following her on social media for years, and she’s even more impressive in real life. And to his bewilderment, the feeling is mutual.
But Jo, Ezra, and Malcolm exist in a world where the line between private and public is as blurred as the line between friendship and love. The question is, can they risk defining those lines to create something real?
