When you realize you forgot to grab a book when leaving for work.. what is one supposed to do over her lunch break? 🤦🏻♀️
I‘ve noticed that many bibliophiles have cats. I‘d love to see by emoji who has a cat, who has a dog, or who has both...
I‘ll start: 🐕🐩

Who else is playing introvert bingo this season?!? 😂😂😂
#wintergames #TeamFestivus #holidaylaughs
1. Yes, always! It makes my family and friends crazy 😜 because they think I should want something besides books, I just laugh at them! 🤷♀️
2. Yes, I‘ve given my daughter-in-law a box of books for her birthday and at Christmas every year, ever since my son started dating her - she depends upon it! ❤️

I‘ve loved Niall Matter since he played bad boy genius Zane Donovan on Eureka. And playing a single dad in Falling for Christmas just makes him that much more adorable!

Like the curious cat, I gotta know, @Cinfhen , or anyone else, what are the hashtags #MOvember and #papadontpreach all about?? I‘m finding all the books fascinating that are playing under those hashtags!!
#Two4Tuesday
1. Sometimes. Sometimes I can‘t focus because life happenings. Sometimes it‘s not the right time for me to read that book. Sometimes it‘s the book.
2. If I‘m having to force myself to read it. If reading the book feels like work. Or if the book is just terribly written.

4. @A_bookworms_nook @DaisyLu @ZacharyP

6. I‘d love to have a way to find the different readathons, swaps, read alongs etc. to me it‘s like the menu at In-N-Out Burger — you have the menu & then the cult menu that‘s not listed. I want it all listed. Lol
