Hi friends! I know I don’t do a lot of giveaways on this site (not as many as I wish I could do to share the love) but I really wanted to give back to you guys. You give me so much all year round — friendship, encouragement, book recs, laughs, lovely comments and support — so I wanted to do a week of giveaways to show my appreciation. I decided to collab with some of my favorite Etsy shops and artists to give you some unique presents!
Today is actually two giveaways in one post!!!
First up we have Becca from Pivot Book Reviews! She makes some awesome book-inspired handpainted totes and sells them at her Etsy shop called Pivot Book Totes. The best part is she takes custom orders and I’ve LOVED seeing what people have asked her to make and what she’s come up with from there.
Here are some of my favorite totes she’s done so far:
THE GIVEAWAY
Becca is offering up an Ignite Me tote for fans of the Shatter Me series — a series which I SUPER love and it came to an end this year! If you aren’t a Shatter Me series fan, I highly recommend considering contacting her for a custom tote at some point!

Giveaway #2
So one of my favorite places to read is my bathtub. My bathtub in my apartment isn’t the best and so I really, really miss the big ol’ tub from my childhood home these days but I STILL love drawing up a nice bath and reading to unwind. Normally with a glass of wine.
In honor of bathtub reading, I’ve teamed up with a new Etsy shop called Sustainable Stead to give you some goodies for your bath! I’m all about homemade soaps and these look lovely!
I’m really eyeing up this Rose infused goat milk soap to use in my own bath!
(ingredients: Organic coconut oil, Goats Milk, Rose essential oil, Rose petals)
I also REALLY want to soak in my tub with this oatmeal rose soap satchet!
Giveaway
These lovely ladies are offering up 3 soaps to one lucky winner!

Kate says
I’d love to see a Grisha inspired tote! My favorite place to read is sitting outside in my screen porch when it’s warm and snuggled in my bed when it’s chilly out.
Rachel says
The soaps look so good! I really love Lush products as well – but I seem to only own bubble bath because I never treat myself to spa-like products.
I used to read a lot in the bathtub, but now my favorite place is in this huge dish chair I own – it’s really the comfiest place to curl up with a blanket, a cup of tea, and a book!
Tammy says
This time of year I love to read by the fireplace.
Haley says
My favorite place to read during the winter is in my bed where it’s warm and cozy.
Marie says
Falling Kingdoms is one of my favorite series, so something themed from those books. Referencing the Watchers, or something.
Mandy R says
I read on the couch mostly.
I would love a The Fault in our Stars tote!
Afrida says
I would love to see a quote from To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before and/or We Were Liars!
Andrea @ Bookish says
I think I’d go for something from Susan Dennard’s Strange and Ever After series. Definitely a line or two between Eleanor and Daniel. Ugh, love so much!
Andrea @ Bookish says
Also, my favorite place to read is my hammock when it’s nice out. So perfect 🙂
Allison R says
Something from Dorothy must die would be a great tote idea!
Allison R says
Also my favorite place to read is on my couch but in the summer, by the pool!
Missie says
I am in love with those totes! A My True Love Gave to Me tote would be so cute, I love that book art!
Missie @ A Flurry of Ponderings
Enter my blog birthday giveaway!
Alyssa says
Totes ideas — I’d love to see a LOTR quote. Or a John Green quote. (I realise these demographics feel very far apart, but they give me ALL THE FEELS.)
My favorite place to read is in bed. It’s always nice to drift off with a good book in your hand.
Susan says
Throne of Glass by Sarah Maas
Reno @ Falling Letters says
Eee, both the totes and the soaps are lovely! My bathtub is also a bit lacking in charm but it’s huge and I haven’t used it yet. I need to pick up some of those and have a nice soak 🙂
Pili says
Becca’s Totes are amazing!! I own quite a number of them and I’m already dying to get my hands on the ACOTAR one that she has in her shop! But it’ll have to wait till after Xmas!!
Anna Weimer (@lostbraincell) says
I’m all about Harry Potter and Throne of Glass so I’d LOVE a tote that had something to do with either of those series!
Anna Weimer (@lostbraincell) says
My bed is my favorite place to read!
Jessica @ a GREAT read says
If I were to do a custom bag with quote…well first I need to remember some quotes because I’m really bad at that! But I might go with one of my classics and choose Janco’s famous quote from Maria V. Snyder’s Poison Study!
Melissa L. says
I’d go for a Throne of Glass related book tote or Grisha tote bag.
Andi says
My bag is famous! 🙂 I love that you are doing this series with all of these dab shops.
Emily says
I LOVE to read in my bed. I know this is nothing unusual but something about laying down with blankets all around me just makes me feel comfortable and ready to sit in bed all day and read. I also have a small love seat that is near the fireplace in my living room. It’s cozy, but not so close to the fire that I feel like I am too warm. It’s perfect. I just need a better lamp near it and a table for tea or something. Bath tun reading is something I feel like I would love, but I am scared that I am the clumsiest person EVER and would drop my book or nook in the water. But that soap would make me suck it up and give it a try. Those look amazing!
Holly J says
Oh man, coming up with a tote idea would be HARD. But I’m so obsessed with the Raven Cycle series right now, and my Raven boys. I would loooove a tote inspired by that series (even though I already have one, thanks to Gillian’s shop). Or the Daughter of Smoke and Bone series. 🙂
Josy Herrera says
Beautiful Disaster by Jamie McGuire would be amazing
Josy Herrera says
I love to read in my bedroom
Abbie Gaile says
I know there are lots Harry Potter inspired totes but who wouldn’t want them, right? So, I’ll want to see a HP inspired one from Becca 🙂
La La in the Library says
Oh my gosh, a custom tote from Becca would have to be the cover of Blue Lily, Lily Blue! Thanks for the fab giveaway. 🙂
La La in the Library says
My favorite place to read a physical book is in my reading chair by the window on a rainy day. My favorite place to read on my Kindle is in bed with my cat. She likes it because the Kindle gives me afree hand to pet her while I read. Thanks for this wonderful giveaway. 🙂
Sarah @ Confessions of a Bookaholic says
I love to read in bed if I’m reading an e-book or library book (because I don’t trust myself reading in a bath lol) and if I’m reading my own physical copy of a book I love to read in a hot bath or sitting propped up on pillows in my bed.
Michelle @ Pink Polka Dot Books says
If I were to choose a book to go on a tote, it would be To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before or one of the Lunar Chronicles books or Looking for Alaska or My Life Next Door. GAH there’s so many I would love to have totes of!!
elena says
For the tote, I would choose Divergent! And my favorite place to read is just in my room. 🙂
