March Instagram Book Challenge

Hey Everyone,

So today's post is a wrap up of how I did in the March Instagram Book Challenge. Just like last month, there are many different ones you can participate in but the one I chose to do was created by @Celinereads, @Alittlebookworld and @booknerd_reads on Instagram. So in case you didn't see my posts each day, here are all the photos I posted with their captions.


"Hey Everyone, I had a lot of fun doing the #celineandsethfebruary16 challenge and so I decided I'm going to be doing it again in March with the #celineannajillmarch16 challenge by @celinereads and a couple other bookstagramers. I'm excited to do it again next month :) #bookstagram #marchbookchallenge #funtimes"

"#celineannajillmarch16 Day Two: Book and Fairy Lights. I have one set of fairy lights on my shelves but I do want to get some more :) #bookstagram#fairylights #marchbookchallenge"

"#celineannajillmarch16 Day Three: Signed Books. I have a couple signed books but this is one I bought second hand and was surprised to find it signed. #marchbookchallenge #bookstagram #autographs"

DAY FOUR!

"#celineannajillmarch16 Day Four: Naked Pastel Book. I went through my shelves and could hardly find anything that was pastel. This was the closest thing I could find. #bookstagram #pastel #catchingup #marchbookchallenge"

DAY FIVE!

"#celineannajillmarch16 Day Five: Favourite Retelling. I haven't read a lot of retellings but Wicked by Gregory Maguire would definitely have to be my favourite one. It tells the story of the Wonderful Wizard of OZ but from the wicked witch of the west's perspective :) #bookstagram #catchingup #retelling #love #marchbookchallenge"

DAY SIX!

"#celineannajillmarch16 Day Six: #SockSunday. It is currently really hot in Sydney right now and so I don't wear a lot of socks around the house but here is a really cool pair I have of Harley Quinn :) #bookstagram #catchingup #love #socks #harleyquinn #marchbookchallenge"

DAY SEVEN!

"#celineannajillmarch16 Day Seven: Book & Candle. I don't use a lot of candles but I really want to get into them. This is an awesome smelling one that my sister owns :) #bookstagram #marchbookchallenge #candles"

DAY EIGHT!

"#celineannajillmarch16 Day Eight: #Shelfie. My shelves and library is so messy right now and so here is a small portion that is slightly cleaner. #messyshelves #bookstagram #library #marchbookchallenge"

DAY ELEVEN!

"#celineannajillmarch16 Day Eleven: Reading Nook. I do most of my reading on my bed and so here is what it looks like. It's a bit messy at the moment but here it is :) #bookstagram #readingnook #bed #marchbookchallenge"

DAY TWELVE!

"#celineannajillmarch16 Day Twelve: Most Owned Author. So I counted on my shelves and Jodi Picoult seems to be the one that I have the most of. What's funny is that I've only read one of her books. #bookstagram #notwhatiexpected #jodipicoult #mostowned #marchbookchallenge"

DAY NINETEEN!

"#celineannajillmarch16 Day Nineteen: Hardbacks or Paperbacks. I own a lot of paperbacks as I find them easier to read but I do like having hardbacks more for collecting.

So that's all the photos I posted for the March challenge. I am hoping to continue doing these challenges every month so be sure to follow my instagram to see what I post each day. If you don't have an instagram, I do plan to make these wrap ups each month as well to have all the pictures in one post.

I hope you're having a wonderful day!
