📖 I have pleasant memories of my visits to school libraries in each stage
:elementary, junior high and HS. I participated in a book clubs. During my elementary school period I visited a beautiful library located in San Juan and I was just in love, impressed🤩
📚Local bookstores, charity store near home, B&N, eBay, BOM, Amazon, subscriptions swaps😂even from Blackwell‘s but I‘m having problems to access the web🤷🏽♀️
⬇️
Well my initial thoughts run along the lines of “eww”, “whyyyyyyy?” and “who asked for this?”
Was Amazon giving Elrond the haircut of a business man not enough? THIS IS WHY WE CAN‘T HAVE NICE THINGS - either reboot the original movie or better yet move on to literally any other fantasy book series - there are so many to choose from.
This is probably more of a post for January, but I wanted to share some photos of my reading journal. I moved to more physical ways of tracking my reading in 2023 and I think it has enhanced my reading life. I still log books on The StoryGraph for end of the year stats report, but my thoughts on a book go into the journal.

My #bookspin picks for April. Some of these have been on my tbr since January. 🙄
I read 10 books last month, and still no bingo. Maybe because I keep picking up books that aren't on the bookspin list.🙃

The Trans Rights Readathon starts today, celebrating trans authors and representation, and to raise funds for and awareness about organizations that support the trans community. I picked out 3 reads to enjoy this week, and look forward to discovering new authors! #TransRightsReadathon #LGBTQIA
I love meeting new authors and @kerryevelynbooks is a real sweetheart. @barkingmadaboutreading introduced me to her and the Coffee Loft series. I just love these sweet romance books however I especially adored Kerry‘s book, “That Thing You Brew”.
I received #bookmail from her today and it is the cutest little package! Thanks @kerryevelynbooks for making this rainy, grey day bright!
I need some book recs! Specifically audios! I got a promotion where I really don't have to interact with people very much at all. I will be able to have my headphones in all day! 😍
Here is my #MarchTBR for #bookspin #doublespin #bookspinbingo #MangaMarch - my new Readathon! And #Roll100 🍀😁
Here in Perth we have just broken records for the highest temperatures ever in February. Today was a tiny bit cooler so we ventured out to a shopping centre. The books were calling me. Top 2 for grandkids. Next one I‘ve heard about on the radio. The bottom one was going cheap cheap and sounded like a good read. Watching US abc news. Hope the weather not near any of US people.
Went to the neighbouring town today. Bought a rucksack full of chocolate at a factory outlet (they make posh chocolate for export) and came across this little free library in the middle of a town square.
🔎 Hercule Poirot
🔎🔎Veronica Speedwell

#TLT #ThreeListThursday @dabbe
Apologies for being missing in action, & not having responded to posts. Had to take a few weeks away whilst I had a big flare up of my Crohn‘s Disease & the associated pains that made it difficult to focus on sitting & responding to things. Also been dealing with one or two other things. Hopefully back now. Thanks for your understanding and going missing in the middle of a Readathon.
Thanks to those that have sent messages 😍 Litsy is the best
I made these bookmarks for my daughter in law and my grandbaby, while listening to THE NURSE

My #MidWinterSolace scavenger hunt. It was more of a wet week than a cold one so I had to get creative.

Thought today was Monday so I‘m a day behind in the #hyggechallenge
