How to make a bookworm happy

       Although reading a book is one of the best ways to make a bookworm happy, what other book related things make bookworms happy? I know for me, there are many! I have so many things that make me happy other than reading a book, (though most of them have to do with getting a book of some sort). In this post, I will be telling you 30 book related things and moments the make me happy. Feel free to let me know if you can relate to these happy feels or tell me some of your own. You can do so in the comments or on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook. (click on the word and it will bring you to the site)

1. Finding money in your purse, your jacket, or your couch cushions, and that money is just enough to buy the book you've been eyeballing through the bookstore's window

2. Buying a book that has such a pretty cover that you just want to take a bunch of pictures of it

3. Payday! More books!

4. When a bookish candle actually has a nice scent

5. Finding a colouring book for you're new favourite book

6. When the colours of all the books in a series compliment each other

7. When an author found a different way to portray her book cover other than with an actual human being

8. then if the author does use a human being, it's not creepy (unless it's supposed to be)

9. fancy lettering for the title on the spine of the book

10. when a spine doesn't creak when the book is opened

11. having pretty pages at the beginning of every chapter

12. When you take off the book jacket and the cover underneath also is pretty

13. little decals on the edges of the pages in the book

14. seeing a quote, phrase or symbol from one of the books you read and being able to understand where it's from

15. when your local library gets a new order of books and you get to be the first one to bring it home

16. shortening your TBR list

17. getting ahead in your reading challenge

18. when the author's name is easy to pronounce

19. the opposite of #16, adding to your TBR list. That means you bought more books which is always a glorious day

20. Hogwarts scarves

21. when your favourite book is getting made into a movie (Selection by Kiera Cass please!)

22. going to the place where a book is set

23. re-reading a children's book and picking up on the not-so-subtle jokes

24. when someone cancels plans that you didn't want to go to so you have more time to read

25. finding time to read in a busy week

26. I'm not sure if anybody else writes, but I do, and I get so happy when I a new idea for my story pops into my head

27. finding a really well written stand alone book

28. novellas that give backstory on characters that we don't know much about

29. when you read the first two chapters of a really well written book and just know that it will become one of your favourite books (this was Caraval for me, if you've read it you should go check out my review!)

30. Finishing an amazing book and finding out that it is only one in a long series

I hope you all enjoyed this post, next week I think I will be posting a review for A Darker Shade of Magic by V.E. Schwab but nothing it for certain yet. Thanks for reading!
