Meet Sakura, one of the main cast in my furry world (Furryverse). She's a shy but very sweet bookworm, Starr's best friend, and an aspiring novelist. Her favorite genres are mystery and romance, and besides reading, her other interests are crocheting and shopping.

Mellie is a big bookworm, with fiction novels being some of her favorite reads. Fun adventure titles, philosophical tales, mystery books, shes a fan. Although some people (especially Taika) find her love of the cheesy monster romance books a bit dorky

Here is a lovely little BookWorm monster girl. She gets around in her Bookshelf Wheelchair that also moves on it's own and helps with her books. I am super proud of her design, this all turned out wonderful!

"Come away, O, human child!
To the woods and waters wild
With a fairy hand in hand,
For the world's more full of weeping
Than you can understand."

‘Her lips began to scorch,
That juice was wormwood to her tongue,
She loath’d the feast:
Writhing as one possess’d she leap’d and sung,
Rent all her robe, and wrung’ Goblin Market,

“It is said that in Ulthar,..., no man may kill a cat; and this I can verily believe as I gaze upon him who sitteth purring before the fire. For the cat is cryptic, and close to strange things which men cannot see.”

🚨 ATTENTION BOOKWORMS 🚨

I was wondering how a 'bookworm' is described in other languages 📚🐛

For example, I live in Poland and the locals use the phrase 'mól książkowy' which translates as the rather wonderful 'book moth'..! 😀📘🦋

Any other examples, friends?
