I need a change of pace, a palate cleanser. So, I've decided to reread #Sunshine by #RobinMcKinley. We're not gonna talk about how young I was when I first read it, in my defense, it was in the YA section and I'd read other books by her. #booksky #reader #bookdragon #tinyone7 #hethey #demiboy

My first "woman with a sword book." The Damar series stands the test of time.
I cannot tell you how much I adore this book. This is the 3rd copy I've bought and I've read it at least 50 times. Robin McKinley will forever be my favorite

The novel “Beauty” by Robin McKinley on a blue & cream striped background.
Time for my annual re-read of my OG comfort book! 🥀❤️
My teacher recommended it in 8th grade, and I’ve read it at least once a year for the past 25 years (JFC I’m old).

“She might have screamed, and hammered at the walls with her fists, or jumped over the low windowsill in her room, clambered to the ground by the ivy trellis… and run off toward the mountains; but she was trying her best to be good. So she was merely first to the breakfast table.” #RobinMcKinley

31 days of #RobinHood books Day 10. Robin McKinley’s The Outlaws of Sherwood. I do like the very different take on Robin Hood as more thoughtful. And especially her Marian and Will Scarlet’s sister Cecily. Interview with author: www.boldoutlaw.com/robint/mckin... #historicalfiction #RobinMcKinley

"I don't put up with being messed around, and I don't suffer fools gladly. The short version of that is that I'm a bitch. Trust me, I can provide character references."

Sunshine by #RobinMcKinley
My all time favorite book.
A young woman who bakes scrumptious treats at a café saves a vampire’s life, finds her magic, & helps him fight the bad guy. Oh, & cinnamon rolls as big as your head. 1st person narrative.

Listening to a charming version of “Beauty”. I think she’s written more than one. A tale that’s always interesting if well-written and this is. #RobinMcKinley
