And with that, I have completed my #LitsyAtoZ challenge for 2020 all nonfiction and all female authors (although I stretched a bit for the X & Z). Phew! I definitely made that harder than I needed too this year, apparently I was feeling really ambitious when 2020 began before it went sideways on us. 😂.
I can‘t even find my link to update these officially🤪. So enjoy them here

This was fun. Thanks @RealLifeReading 🤩 #alphabetbookishquiz
#LessonsfromDrSeuss - memorizing whole books you‘ve read them to your child so many times. These are 4 I had memorized. My kids used to do that belly laugh so hard they‘d cry in anticipation of me knowing what the next page said before we even turned it. Man, I miss those days! Thanks for the memories, Dr Seuss!
#literaryluck
Making good progress on #LitsyAtoZ so far! Even if I'm doing it all out of order. I still haven't found my "A" book yet.
In an effort to get out of my reading funk, I‘ve decided to participate in my #readingchallenges in the coming year. The #LitsyAtoZ seemed like a perfect jumping off point. Thanks to @BookishMarginalia for organizing it! Now to get my #AbecedarianTBR together.
Only 6 of these were ones I originally had planned on, but I went through what I‘ve actually read so far and replaced the other 20 with other classics that I read through #ShakespeareReadAlong #EarthseedBuddyRead #JaneAustenReadAlong #Reading1001 etc and with that I am counting this #ReadingChallenge complete
#LitsyClassicsAtoZ
#ReadingChallenge2018
And a few also worked for my #MountTBR and #192019 challenges, so that‘s a plus.😉
I‘ll be in here for a while...
I don‘t mean to brag, but I‘ve got all the words to this board book memorized 💁🏻♀️.
(I might‘ve read it a few times 😉.)

Since I‘ve seen a few new people from #LibraryThing asking about Litsy Challenges, I thought I‘d post updates from a few of mine, with briefish explanations. This is my #LitsyAtoZ challenge, it restarts every Jan. & was started by @BookishMarginalia The idea was to make a list of books, with a certain theme this year (I chose Classic Sci-Fi), and read one for every letter (either 1st letter of the title or author‘s last name) of the alphabet....
@BookishMarginalia has enrollment up for this year‘s #LitsyAtoZ challenge Check out her page, her post, and sign up if you‘re interested!
Here‘s my #LitsyClassicsAtoZ picks for 2018, but if it‘s anything like last year, I‘ll stick with about half and the other half will be substitutions that just show up along the way. In fact a few of these like Catch-22 were ones on my original plans last year that got pushed back as other things showed up on my radar or on a whim.
pickDr. Seuss‘s ABC picture book written and illustrated by none other than himself is the perfect P book for CR. This picture book is great for students learning their alpahabet and great in choral reading for students to build their fluency skills and motivation. It also contains simple words and illustrations that aids the students when reading.
I'm looking for some recommendations for my #LitsyAtoZ
Either title or author's last name for Q, X and Z.
Thanks in advance for any recommendations you can provide.
And last, but certainly not least, of my Litsy reading challenges for 2017 #LitsyAtoZ Which looks like I'm on target for this one too. Whew!
What was that website link to post and track these again @BookishMarginalia ?
Big Z Little z what begins with Z?
My favorite #lastlines from Dr. Seuss. 😂😂

Me (acting like I'm gonna tickle Juliet): FEE FI FO FUM.
Juliet: Did you know giants are scared of books? Dey are scared of dem because dey don't know how to read, and dey think books have monster magic, so dey run away.
And now we are playing a game where we alternately chase each other around the house with Dr. Seuss while the other one runs away screaming. 😂😂 #raisingreaders
I'm here to share with people who will understand my joy. I just spent a couple of days alphabetizing my books by author. Here's a glimpse of three of my four bookcases. I am so excited, and a bit embarrassed- I seem to have three copies of The Count of Monte Cristo (along with a few other duplicates). Anyway, I wanted to share with some kindred spirits! #kindredspirits #ilovelittens
I suppose you have to start somewhere !
Planning my #LitsyAtoZ reading list. I'm stuck on #K #Q #U and #Y by title. Any #mustreads that fit the bill?
Universal Studios birthday geek out with my sister! I am SO not a theme park person but am having a good time!

pick#fundridayphoto @Liberty I'm doing a small twist on this fun friday photo and am sharing my son's favorite childhood book! My husband and I read this book so much that we both had it memorized and it began to fall apart. This is the book my son would grab as soon as he could walk. He loved this book and it helped him learn his ABC's and I always recommend it to parents!
For #recommendsday I'll recommend my current favorite book to read to the boy. "Four fluffy feathers on a Fiffer Feffer Feff!"
