Getting to Know You!

Getting to Know You!: Rodgers and Hammerstein Favorites | Richard Rodgers

This is for #AuldLangSpine. @WildAlaskaBibliophile here is a getting to know me. I picked up A Wizard's Guide to Defensive Baking from the library yesterday!

@monalyisha I thought you might want to see this too. It was fun to do.

WildAlaskaBibliophile I love this and I love the book you're starting with! I too am from the PNW-- born and raised in WA! 3d

monalyisha I‘ve never been to the West Coast! One day… 3d

Pogue @WildAlaskaBibliophile Small world! 3d

Pogue @monalyisha one day yes, it is very different from the east coast and the south and the plains and the Midwest. 3d

peanutnine 1. I live in Shelby, a small city in western NC
2. I love seeing all the Christmas lights! 🎄
3. I really like the word search game and filling out book bingos
4. Romance for sure, but also sci-fi/fantasy 13mo

TheAromaofBooks 1. I'm in a small town in southeastern Ohio, heart of the slushbelt as we like to say 😂
2. Family times and food!!
3. I am a bingo addict.
4. Anything with a happy ending - I trend towards romance, but love fantasy, scifi, thrillers, and mysteries as well. I also enjoy nonfiction about practical subjects, like gardening and food.
Excited to be playing WinterGames with you all!!! 13mo

peanutnine @TheAromaofBooks I grew up in northern Pennsylvania and I do not miss the snow! 😅❄️ 13mo

See All 26 Comments

Andrew65 @peanutnine Is NC, North Carolina? 13mo

Andrew65 1 l live in Yorkshire, in northern England, although born in London.
2. Time to chill, relax & get lost in books! Also all the lights / colour and festive feel.
3. Word search & team feel, along with choosing books for bingos/ readathons.
4. Mystery and suspense, especially crime. Also enjoy historical fiction, some fantasy, and what would badly be termed chick lit (without the sex). At Christmas like to get lost in Christmas stories & romance. 13mo

Deblovestoread 1. I live in the Willamette Valley Oregon. I‘m not too far from the ocean, the desert or the city. 2. I love decorating the tree and house, the music & movies. 3. Word search, bingo and all the games. 4. Historical Fic, mysteries, fantasy and a little Christmas romance. 👋🏼 team! 🎄 (edited) 13mo

peanutnine @Andrew65 yes North Carolina! I definitely love all the Christmas stories this time of year 😄 13mo

5280reader

1. I live in Erie, Colorado about 30 min. north of Denver.
2. I love baking Christmas cookies and enjoying my daughter home from college. I collect ornaments so decorating the tree is high up there too!
3. Probably the bingo. I feel like I‘m 75 in a small town smoky bingo hall dabbing 25 bingo cards in front of me.
4. Love a good rom com with smart writing and a great meet cute. Bonus if it‘s an audiobook with an English accented narrator.
13mo

peanutnine @Deblovestoread I've always wanted to visit Oregon, it seems like a beautiful place! Christmas music is the best, I'm so excited that it is an acceptable time to listen to it again 😅 13mo

5280reader @Andrew65 I ventured up to Harrogate and the Dales about 7 years ago- loved it!! 13mo

peanutnine @5280reader your bingo analogy 🤣 love it! So true. I love decorating Christmas cookies even though I can't eat them (allergies) 13mo

candc320 1. I live in the Tampa Bay Area of Florida. 2. I absolutely love watching all the holiday movies (other than Hallmark….romance isn‘t really my thing) and going around at night looking at all the Christmas lights! 3. I‘m excited for all the Bingos! 4. My favorite genres are Horror, Thriller/Mystery, and Historical Fiction. 13mo

peanutnine @candc320 ooh we've got a bunch of mystery & historical fiction fans! Love it 13mo

Andrew65 @5280reader A lovely area of the world, we‘re about 40 miles south of Harrogate just on the southern border of Yorkshire. Nearest towns Barnsley and Doncaster. 13mo

TheAromaofBooks @5280reader - On the bingo, SAME! 😂 It's a little ridiculous but I love it!! 13mo

Andrew65 If anyone hasn‘t see it we have posted the #RushathonChristmasBingo this weekend. @Deblovestoread @Blerdgal_fenix @mcipher @candc320 @TheAromaofbooks @Andrew65 @5280reader @Kay.the.bibliophile
#SantasBookshELVES https://www.litsy.com/web/post/2667543 13mo

Deblovestoread All the bingos! I have 16 cards made up from all the Litsy posts so far. I thought I saw a non Hallmark movie bingo but can‘t find it now. Has anyone seen that one? 13mo

Andrew65 @Deblovestoread Wow 16, I must be missing some. 🤷‍♂️ 13mo

Deblovestoread @amdrew65. Here are the Littens that have posted bingos @Bookwormjillk @TheAromaofBooks @Clwojick @Jadams1776 @Emilymdxn @peanutnine @PuddleJumper @Texreader and I have one non Litsy from Libby app. Happy hunting 😁 13mo

Andrew65 @Deblovestoread Thanks 😍 13mo

TheAromaofBooks @Deblovestoread - Oooo thank you!! I had missed a few of these!! 13mo

peanutnine @Deblovestoread there are a few non Hallmark movie bingo boards in the Google drive, but also you can use the Hallmark boards for movies that aren't by Hallmark or even for books if you want. We're lax on interpretation ☺️ 13mo

Deblovestoread @peanutnine thanks for the Google doc reminder! 😍 13mo

Clwojick ❤️❤️❤️ 13mo

mcipher I‘m late but 1) The northern Oregon coast 2) The lights and the sparkly ornaments on my tree, and my kids coming to visit for Xmas! 3) I‘m intrigued by all this bingo talk so I‘m going to go find some boards 4) Romance, mystery, fantasy, dark academia, speculative fiction (edited) 13mo

peanutnine @mcipher never too late! Hope you enjoy the bingo experience 😜💖 13mo

Good game, @Eggs thanks for this one!

1. As a child there were actually two books: The Secret Garden, & The Lion The Witch and the Wardrobe. I couldn‘t choose between them if I tried!

2. When I turned 7, My dad & I starting taking walkabouts around towns we‘d visit, usually towns he had lived in. Ones that have special meaning to him. I learn so much about his life from those walks.

3. Oct. 7th crawling through an archeological site in Eqypt.

Really anything can be bookish if you overthink it enough 😜 Other things I like are puzzles, stickers, pens, funkos, enamel pins, mugs, reading lights, etc. While I am intrigued by booksleeves, I‘ve never tried them before. I try my best to stalk and find things based on my victim‘s interests hehe. I‘m in my hurty 30‘s so I also love bath bombs/salts/bubbles, face masks, etc. #LittensWantToKnow

Bookzombie Love the names of your cats! 5y

JudeCC Nice meeting you! We have a lot in common lol😄😂🤣. I use two apps. One is Handy Library and that one is great because it lets you scan a book/ISBN and tells you immediately if you already have it or not. That for me is the real deal because it keeps me from buying multiple copies of a book by mistake. Also you can search by author and search online and within your own library. I really recommend it. 5y

JudeCC I also use Memento. That one is great for creating SO MANY LISTS & COLLECTIONS!! 😃🙌 You can name them whatever you like and add the books you need, your favorite books, I even have a list of the books I need to buy from a series or the hardcovers I still need etcetera. You can even make a list and collection of movies, and other things. Recommend it 100% 5y

Aloisi_tribe That sounds like the coolest job in the world. And I was also obsessed with Lost. We were stationed in Hawaii during the filming of the fifth and sixth seasons so I got to stalk the sets and visit all the shooting locations. 5y

kyraleseberg Big Island is my favorite place on Earth!!! We plan on retiring in Volcano! And you have my dream job! 5y

LeahBergen Ohhh, I shopped at Hooked on Books this summer!! It‘s a lovely shop. ❤️ 5y

Hooked_on_books @Tanisha_A @Texreader @squirrelbrain It‘s been an interesting ride! It‘s still new for us, so we learn something every day. 5y

Hooked_on_books @kyraleseberg I love Volcano! We actually stumbled into the flower business—Volcano was our planned landing site. Hopefully you‘ll get to retire soon! 5y

Hooked_on_books @LeahBergen Oh I‘m envious! I have such great memories of that place. My mom would only give me 15 minutes inside! (I know, it‘s child abuse.) So I‘d shop my usual spots first while watching the clock then locate her at the 10 minute point and hide from her in more unusual sections to stretch it out. 😆 5y
