You can find tons of book bloggers who post pictures of the books they’re reading.
But how many have a tiny and incredibly grumpy owl to pose next to said books?
Here you find the posts with all of the books I have been reading, each of them featuring a photo of Artemis scowling at the camera (or trying to eat the book), accompanied by my random thoughts. Enjoy!

The Bookish Owl – Johnny and the Bomb by Terry Pratchett
Happy Friday! Today's post features Johnny and the Bomb by Terry Pratchett. This was the very first Pratchett book I ever read. I think I was about 12 or 13 years old, and my English teacher got tired of trying to keep me entertained whenever I finished the books we ...

The Bookish Owl – Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins
I'm still playing catch up with these, so here you have Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins. This was a great follow-up to The Hunger Games. It was fast-paced and filled with conspiracies, which is right up my alley. That's all, really. I'll keep my ranting commentary for when I get ...

The Bookish Owl – Hard in Hightown by Varric Tethras
Time for some nerdy noir with Hard in Hightown by Varric Tethras! (Also known as Mary Kirby... considering that Varric is a video game character.) For those of you not familiar with the Dragon Age games, Varric Tethras is a crossbow-wielding dwarf as well as a successful writer of multiple ...

The Bookish Owl – Johnny and the Dead by Terry Pratchett
I'm still alive. And to prove it, I give you Johnny and the Dead by Terry Pratchett! I swear that I'm really back this time. It's been a couple of weeks since things calmed down around here, and now I'm finally done hiding under a blanket because I'm scared of ...

The Bookish Owl – War of the Spark: Ravnica by Greg Weisman
Next up is War of the Spark: Ravnica by Greg Weisman. As the name might suggest, this is a Magic: The Gathering tie-in novel. I have not played the trading card game, but lots of my friends are obsessed with it and some of them invited me to join a Dungeons ...

The Bookish Owl – Only You Can Save Mankind by Terry Pratchett
Time to shoot some aliens, with Only You Can Save Mankind by Terry Pratchett. This is the first book in the Johnny Maxwell trilogy. It might not have aged as well as Pratchett’s other books, but the overall message about how we’re numb to the horrors of war fits as ...

The Bookish Owl – The Language of Thorns by Leigh Bardugo
It's time for The Language of Thorns by Leigh Bardugo. This is a collection of fairy tales set in the Grishaverse and they are all wonderfully dark. We're talking far more Grimm than Disney here... and then a tad darker than that. The book itself is absolutely gorgeous, both inside ...

The Bookish Owl – Dragon Age: The Stolen Throne by David Gaider
Here be dragons! Just in case the 'dragon' in Dragon Age: The Stolen Throne by David Gaider didn't clue you in... The Stolen Throne is the prequel to Dragon Age: Origins, the first game in one of my all-time favorite video game franchises. And it follows Prince Maric, the father of ...
