♡ So excited to share my new bookish tattoo! I have a few smaller tattoos so this was my first “real” tattoo lol. I knew I wanted something meaningful but couldn’t decide on the design so I sat on it for a few years. Then I read ACOTAR earlier this year and fell back in love with reading like so many other women. I grew up loving Harry Potter and remember waiting on the edge of my seat for the next book (and movie) to be released (I also have a Harry Potter tattoo) I loved twilight and the hunger games, even Lord of the Rings. Then being a grownup happened (can I also say how overrated this is lol) and going to school, working and having kids took over and reading took a back burner. I never stopped loving it but I am a bit obsessive when I read and do not like putting a book down if I’m into it, so it just didn’t fit with my lifestyle. Then I went away with my husband without kids and read 5 books over the week and I was in heaven. Reading all day and romantic dinners and fun in the evenings. It brought me back into reading and made me feel like myself and not just a mom again. Then I officially joined the Romantasy cult and I’ve read more books this year than I had over the past 10 years combined. I use reading as a way to escape the chaos of this world and it helps my mental health substantially (even when I’m sobbing over fictional characters). I finally feel like myself again, and am owning my bookish, Disney adult era. This tattoo represents my love of reading and getting lost in a fantasy world, with nods to ACOTAR and Throne of Glass being my two favourite series. Thank you so much @buttattoo for making my vision come to life ♡ If you’re in the Guelph area and looking for a tattoo artist Jasteen was fantastic to work with she was so kind and welcoming and instantly made me feel comfortable. Plus she did an amazing job. Anywho thats my little backstory behind my new tattoo 😊 #bookishtattoo #booktattoodesign #acotartattoo #bookstagram #bookstagramcanada #readerforlife #momswhoread
