I've been in quite the reading slump for the last few months (again)! 😣 Hoping this February #bookspin gives me motivation! #doublespin #bookspinbingo

A little behind on getting my wrap up posted. TX has essentially closed the last 2 days because people here don‘t know how to drive in 32 degree weather and we need to be saved from ourselves 😅 Here is my February #BookSpin I have several in progress that I am going to try to save for my free spaces. Most of these are #ScaryFebruary books acquired via Litsy.

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! I always think it's funny what kinds of weather different regions can handle. I remember laughing at my cousins in Atlanta when they freaked out over a really minimal amount of snowfall, and Dad pointing out that they literally don't own snow plows or salt trucks there because they pretty much never have to deal. On the other hand, I don't know what I would do with as much snow as they get in, say, Minnesota haha 1y
MatchlessMarie @TheAromaofBooks It‘s pretty much the same thing here. The lack of preparedness is more dangerous than the weather itself. Also some people don‘t realize TX has a separate power grid from the rest of the country because Texas 😑 and it really can‘t handle extreme temperatures. Texans really aren‘t taught anything about winterizing or dressing properly for cold temps because it rarely happens. I really hope that changes. 1y

The tenth in the series. I was expecting a more light-hearted, romantic story for the February installment. Definitely not.

My #bookspin #doublespin #bookspinbingo for the month. Half of them are on my tbr, so hopefully I get to most of it this month.

For January I managed to finish 7 books, 3 of which were books for a 12 Book Rec Challenge. I managed to read my #doublespin but not my #bookspin for the month (but I am going to read it eventually). Sadly no bingo this month either — though I was one away!

Pictured is my list going into February for #bookspinbingo perhaps with better luck 📚

TheAromaofBooks Sounds like a solid month!!! 2y

I‘m excited for February #bookspin!! I finished my January bookspin pick and started my doublespin pick today so I‘m proud that I‘m keeping up so far 😅 I created a new list consisting of books sitting in a different part of my house 😂

TheAromaofBooks Yay!! And for some reason, physical book location seems to be a theme in BookSpin lists this month 😂 2y
mollyrotondo @TheAromaofBooks oh wow that‘s crazy! Glad I‘m not the only one with unread books piled up all over the house 😂 I‘ll have to look through the lists 😆 2y

Hello, friends!!! Unbelievably, we already into the last week of January!!! Apparently 2022 is going to go even faster than 2021! I've been informed by loving family members that this means I'm getting OLD! 😂

At any rate, if you're interested in playing along with #BookSpin, #DoubleSpin, and/or #BookSpinBingo for February, it's already time to start thinking about your lists!!! With my new 2022 system, I am using the SAME TAG LIST all year ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) so if you are tagged on this post, you already automatically on the tag list for February. If you would like to be ADDED or REMOVED from the tag list, please just let me know!!

Below are the basics of challenge, plus the link the very rambly explanation of the rules of the challenge, plus the link to the Google Form where you can enter your BookSpin & DoubleSpin reads for the end-of-the-year giveaway!!

Can't wait to see your ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) February lists!!!

1/5 - The rules for this challenge can be found by reading my masterpost on my blog (off Litsy) - https://thearomaofbooks.wordpress.com/bookspin-bookspinbingo-litsy-challenge - but the basics: if you want to play, make a list of 20 books you've been meaning to read & tag me when you post it!!

2/5 - You do NOT have to participate in the Bingo part of the challenge if that isn't your thing!! You can just read the ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) BookSpin or DoubleSpin or however many books works for you! Basically, choose a reading level that fits your life, and feel free to change it from month to month!!

3/5 - Just a reminder that the rules here are pretty loose!! If you have a huge/challenging book, feel free to let it take up more than one square. Some people struggle with super specific lists & prefer to go with categories (i.e. library book, Netgalley, mystery, from the⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) living room shelf, etc.), which is also fine! You can make separate lists for BookSpin & DoubleSpin so that you read one book from each. This year, I have a list of challenging books that I am using to read the BookSpin number from each month, but then make a list of my month's TBR to use for the bingo part. Make this challenge work for you!! Just ask if you have questions about whether something is “allowed“ - most of the time the ⬇ 2y
TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) answer is yes!!

4/5 - Remember, if you didn't finish your January BS/DS, you can still check it off at any point in 2022. If you wish to participate in the end-of-the-year giveaway, each completed (or DNF'd) BS/DS read counts as an entry!! This year, everyone is in charge of tracking their OWN ENTRIES for this giveaway!! This is being done via Google Form. You are also welcome to use this form even if you don't want to enter the ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) giveaway, just don't put in your name/address. I won't be looking at these forms until the end of the year, so you can either add your entries throughout the year, or add them in one big batch in December, whatever works best for you!! The form can be found here - https://forms.gle/X57ePKzuHpsqLjE5A - please remember that once you start a form, you need to SAVE THE LINK that Google will email to you so that you can edit your form!! ⬇ 2y
TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) 5/5 - Thank you all SO MUCH for your participation and enthusiasm!!! I LOVE seeing everyone's posts and hearing about how this challenge is helping you tackle the neverending, ever-growing TBR!!! As always, please just ask if you have ANY questions!!! You all are the best!!! ❤ ❤ ❤ 2y

TheAromaofBooks @Bits - You do not have to post reviews!! The goal is to get the books off the TBR, so if you read or DNF it, as long as you add it to the form by the end of the year you are good to go!! 2y

February has been very busy, but I‘m finally on my vacation week! Hoping to finish one more book tonight before ACOSF tomorrow. I don‘t know if I‘ll make it to 10 this month, but I‘m going to try! Also going to try and read a tbr instead of more random kindle books 🤦🏻‍♀️😬

A little late, but here is my February #BookSpinBingo card. I started the month with 2 in progress that I will be using towards my free spaces. And technically Strangers on a Train is a reread but I included it anyway since I‘m reading the referenced books from Eight Perfect Murders.

Good morning, everyone! The moment you have all been waiting for!! Our official #BookSpin number is TWO!! Our official #DoubleSpin number is FIVE!! I have thoroughly enjoyed looking at everyone's lists & am really looking forward to seeing your reviews!

My next post will be the #BookSpinBingo card!!!

Just a few quick housekeeping items that I would really appreciate if you would take a moment to read!! I know I'm rambly so sorry!! ⬇

TheAromaofBooks 1 - Remember, this is a no-pressure challenge!! You can read one or both of these books. You can bail on them. You can bail on the whole challenge and try again next month. Whatever works!! This is supposed to be fun not stressful!! If you can't remember exactly how this challenge works, please check out my master post here https://www.litsy.com/web/post/1989556 or just ask!! ⬇ 3y
TheAromaofBooks 2 - I am planning to have a giveaway at the end of the year. Entries are reviews of #BookSpin & #DoubleSpin books, but I will only know about them if you tag me, so please tag me whenever you read & review your book for the month. DNFs count! The goal for #BookSpin is to get a book off your TBR, so if you decide not to finish it, it's still off the list, so tag me & tell me why you bailed. ⬇ 3y
TheAromaofBooks 3 - I am tagging everyone who posted a list, so if you posted a list & you do not get tagged here, please let me know! It means I either accidentally missed your original #BookSpin post OR I wrote down your username wrong. Either way, I'm really sorry. Everyone is welcome to join this challenge, so if I missed you it was entirely by mistake - just let me know!! ⬇ 3y
See All 91 Comments
TheAromaofBooks 4 - If you do not finish your #BookSpin/#DoubleSpin book this month it is STILL ELIGIBLE for a giveaway entry as long as you complete it sometime in 2021!! Whenever you review it, just tag me as usual be sure to let me know which month it is for - there is a maximum of 2 entries per month, so if you don't let me know it's for a different month, it may not count. ⬇ 3y
TheAromaofBooks 5 & final - While I don't have time to reply to all of the comments to this post, I do read every one and love seeing which books got picked for you!! I do respond to any direct questions or confusion, so please feel free to ask away if something doesn't make sense or you need some clarifications. I know we have a lot of new participants!!! Thank you all so much for your enthusiasm, and happy reading!!! 3y
TheLudicReader Girl Crazy and The Night Inside. And it‘s a snow day today, so maybe I will get one of them started today. 3y

OriginalCyn620 Woohoo! Mine are The Dinner List and Modern Lovers! 3y

MuddyPuddle What‘s the difference between bookspin and Doublespin? 3y
eeclayton The Jekyll Revelation and Wizard (about Tesla). Woo hoo 🎉 3y
TheAromaofBooks @MuddyPuddle - Originally I only drew 1 number each month (BookSpin), but then some people wanted an extra challenge so I started drawing a 2nd number (DoubleSpin). You are welcome to read either or both. I have a giveaway at the end of the year & reading BS/DS books are what qualify you for entries (so up to 2 entries per month if you read both every month). Some people want to read even MORE which is why I started the bingo part (next post lol) 3y
Crazeedi @MuddyPuddle you just have 2 books to read and they both count for giveaway at end of year. You can read one or both and if you post with tags @TheAromaofBooks will see !! 3y
Crazeedi @TheAromaofBooks you explain so much better!! 3y
Clare-Dragonfly Maybe I should stop putting things on my list if I don‘t own them or have them on hold… 🤔 there will be a 6-week wait for my spin! 3y

TheAromaofBooks @Liz_M - So weird, you are on the list so I'm not sure why your tag didn't work!!! Sorry about that!! 3y
keys_on_fire @TheAromaofBooks so maybe I did this wrong, but because I didn‘t read my bookspin from last month, I put it back on my list & it got drawn again for this month (what are the chances?!?). Would that count for two entries or should I pick a different book from my list for this month? 3y
Liz_M Very weird, because I do get the Bingo tag notification! 3y
Lcsmcat Tepper Isn‘t Going Out, and Sea Runners! Good picks, both. 3y
TheAromaofBooks @keys_on_fire - What are the odds?! 😂 I would pick a different book for this month so that one book counts as one entry. 3y
TheAromaofBooks @Liz_M - You are in the second mass batch of tags on this post - did I somehow type your name wrong or anything?? It looks okay to me so maybe it's just Litsy being Litsy! 3y

TheAromaofBooks @Singout - I liked the caps; it felt like a legit announcement! 😂 3y
Jess861 I'll be joining in - I just didn't post my list because I'm using the same list as last month (minus the number that we read in January) but I figured the likelihood of landing on the same number two months in a row wasn't very high. 3y

bibliobard I think you typo‘d my name 😅 but I knew you were posting today 3y
night_shift Mine are Network Effect and How to Be an Antiracist, which I have hardbacks both of and am excited to get to them! I've only changed one book from when I posted my bingo card earlier, so I'll just wait until I have something to cross off before posting again! 3y
Bookzombie Woohoo! Bookspin is Flyaway and Double spin is Crimson Peak. 3y
Kanarthi Tag me! It's my first month doing BookSpin, so I might have messed up tagging you last week -- oops. I have French Exit and The Moonstone! Thanks a million for hosting :) 3y
LeticiaToraci Oh, I found the February post now. 3y
TheAromaofBooks @Jess861 - Sounds good!! So basically I make a new tag list every month so that people who aren't participating that month don't keep getting tags they don't need. Anytime you aren't going to make a new list, if you just let me know in the reminder post that I make about a week before I post the new numbers, I'll make sure you are added to the next month's tag list!! 3y
TheAromaofBooks @Kanarthi - I've added you to the list!! I also may have accidentally missed your post. Sometimes Litsy just forgets to let me know, and sometimes my eyes just accidentally skip a post!!! Sorry about that!! 3y
TheAromaofBooks @LeticiaTorarci - I checked & I totally mistyped your username on my list!!! Sorry about that!! I'm glad you found the post anyway!! 3y
BookmarkTavern Yay! I‘m so excited for this month! 3y
EliNeedsMoreShelves Super excited about my picks for this month! 3y
CSeydel Yay, one nonfiction and one fiction! Assembling California by John McPhee and Blackout by Connie Willis. 🤩 3y

❤️ Well, it‘s the month for love, and I personally think we could all use a little more love in our lives. As per usual, there‘s no set rules. Read some books that give you heart eyes, & use the #ReadingRomance tag. Easy peasy lemon squeezy! I‘m looking forward to adding A LOT of books to my TBR thanks to your upcoming posts. ☺️ happy love month!

Texreader Sounds like something we all need! I‘m in! 3y
thegreensofa Yay! 🎉 I‘m in! 💕💕 3y
Kimberlone Love it! Will def be incorporating at least a few romances this month. I‘ll use the tag! 3y

Here‘s my #BFC21 tracker for February. I didn‘t hit my goals in January, but I definitely did more than I would have because of BFC!

February goals:
🧘🏻‍♀️ Meditate everyday, no matter the length. I need to try to fix my mind.
🧘 More yoga and/or stretching to hopefully help with my back and rib pain. At least 2 days a week.
🏃🏻‍♀️ 🥗 And of course cardio and healthy eating for weight loss. Cardio at least 3-4 days a week.

guinsgirlreads And a #bookspinbingo for my book goal! I was running out of characters! 3y
wanderinglynn Great goals! 🙌🏻 And love your tracker. 3y

I met all of my reading goals for February, plus I added 3 more books. It was a good month for me. My favorites were American Dirt, A Woman is No Man, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, and The Pisces. Although I really liked everything but Sandman Slim.

I read 17 books/4412 pages in February. I had some good reading time while hubby was on a work trip, but since he got back it‘s been busy with family time. Then today I was prepping for a gig starting tomorrow that will sap my reading time for the next week at least. I am looking forward to @TheAromaofBooks #bookspin and #middlegrademarch next month.

Geenie 👍👏 I‘m looking forward to the bookspin as well! 💖 4y
Reggie What a great month!! 4y
TheAromaofBooks Great month!! My reading was down in February thanks to a new job, but I am hopeful that things are going to balance out more in March!! 4y

• Day late ⬆️ 💜 •

1. Not crazy about it in general but I'll give most genres a try

2. Stay in -- on Valentine's Day and other holidays (because crowds, duh Lol)

3. Both are nice but I'd take the chocolates

4. Need to read more romantic plots because I can't think of any

#BookishBingo for February. I had to Google image search this because Bookish seems to have changed their website 😕

TheSpineView I saw it on Facebook. I wished they had used a black font intead of white. The white on the light background is hard to read. 4y

Joining in #BookSpin for the month of February ! Here is my list! With many more that could have been added! @TheAromaofBooks

TheAromaofBooks Thank you so much for joining!! I have Little Women on my list, too - have you read it before? I have it there as a reread, as it was a childhood favorite, but it's been years since I read it. I'll be sure to tag you with the lucky number on Sunday!! 😁 4y
Kayla.Adriena @TheAromaofBooks I have not! All of the books on my TBR are owned but unread ...and there's many more where they came from 😬 4y
TheAromaofBooks Oh trust me, I know how fast they add up!!! 😁 4y
Clwojick Crawdads, Kiss Quotient, and Things We Save in a Fire were all 5🌟 reads, IMO. Hope you enjoy them! And Little Women is on my list too! 4y

Didn‘t read quite the amount I wanted for February, but I was able to complete the books pictured including:
#LetterD
#LetterG &
#LetterJ for #LitsyClassics and I still have a handful in progress. I read so many good ones, it‘s hard to choose a favorite which I think is fantastic.
Onward to March! ☘️

13 books read for February. A little military sci-fi space opera, a lot of mysteries, a dash of surgical history, and a soupçon of YA. Checked off boxes for the LitsyAtoZ and LitsyPassport challenges, as well as my own one nonfiction per month challenge. Eight books ahead of schedule for the yearly goal. All in all a pretty good month!

PurpleyPumpkin Well done!👍🏽 6y
