About Amy Hello, I'm Amy, an aspiring motorsports writer and former blogger. If you dig deeper enough, you find some very old blog posts, as this started as a book blog, but that's really where I got my start in writing: book reviews, hot book topics and as well as the odd personal essay. After leaving university, I left the book blog behind, but continued writing and going in the world of social media, writing film reviews and promoting queer cinema, but after a tragic event in my personal life, I quickly discovered Motorsports. What started as a love for Formula 1, while finally watching the Formula 1 film, Rush, and discovering Formula 1 TikTok, this love soon expanded to everything Formula E, IndyCar, Formula 2, Formula 3, as well as F1 Academy. I soon found the itch to write come back, with the fast-moving news of motorsport, to the drama, the competition, and the journey of drivers trying to find a race seat. I found that it was the people and storie...
It’s Wednesday so that
means that it’s Top 5 Wednesday and this week’s topic is things on your
bookshelf that aren’t books. To find more about Top 5 Wednesday’s you can join
the Goodreads group and discover the
creator of the group Lainey. So let’s get started…
Number
5: An owl and a TID necklace
All
of the items on my bookshelf, I feel make my bookshelf look nicer, hence
the owl. I received it from Christmas and I feel like it makes my bookshelf a little bit more like me (as i have a weird owl obsession). Also being a fan of Cassandra Clare’s books I thought that it would
be nice to put my Clockwork Angel necklace before I wear it.
Number 4: Mockingjay Pins
Although the MockingJay pins are on my
TBR (To Be Read) Shelf not with my the Hunger Games books, I like the addition they add to my shelf as they show
that I am a fan of the Hunger Games and make my shelf just that little bit more
interesting.
Number 3: An audiobook
Most of the time, I am a physical book
reader but I don’t mind reading eBooks. I mainly have the audiobook there to
force myself to listen to it. I have had it for over a year but I have not
listened to it yet.
Number 2: A butter beer cup with
bookmarks
After going to the Harry Potter studio
tour, I was left with a butterbeer cup and I had nowhere to put my bookmarks so
I put the two together and I think that it makes a nice addition on my
bookshelf.
Number 1: A coaster
I have a coffee addiction that my
bookshelf even can’t avoid. The coaster prevents any damage to my bookshelf as I
like to drink coffee and read books. It also looks nice on my bookshelf.
Honourable Mentions:
- More Books- It’s fair to say that I have
a book buying addiction and I need to stop buying books as I now have too many
that they are now on the top of my bookshelf.
- A Hufflepuff badge- I class myself as
a Hufflepuff and it is fair to say I am proud about it so it has it on my
bookshelf. I got it with the butterbeer cup at the Harry Potter studio tour.
- A “the book was better” badge- As the
saying goes the book is better than the movie apart from some exceptions hence
why it is on my bookshelf.
What is on your bookshelf that are not
books? Let me know in the comments below.
See you soon,
Amy
