Book Love | 
pickAs a book lover, I love this book. I laughed so many times as I saw myself as the main character. There isn't a plot, but rather a description of what it means to love books. Absolutely adore and recommend for anyone that reads.
pickEnjoyed this 🥰
#WishesAndBlessings Day 31: Let‘s #celebrate all the books we have not read in 2021! Here‘s to reading them ALL in 2022!!!! (As if).
In November, I still felt like I needed more grief support, so my reads were pretty heavy. But I highly recommend them all, if and when you need to process grief in good, compassionate company.🔸#novemberreads2021
I found Halloween strangely comforting this year, arriving as it did right after the passing of a dear friend. Most of my reads were ghost stories that helped me start facing my grief.🔸#octoberreads2021
pick#224 Been meaning to read this graphic novel for a couple of years, and was finally able to borrow it from Overdrive. After reading, I immediately purchased my own copy! Such a cute book, and I‘m certain every litten can relate. The drawings were all black and white but were cute; it‘s the amusing content that really hit home! 5⭐️ just for peeking into my life! #2021
Holy cats, I actually read ten books in September!! 🙀 Call it stress-reading. I‘ll just talk about eight of them. (And yes I know it‘s almost the end of October already. It‘s been a 😵💫month, I‘ll just say that, so better late than never!)🔸#septemberreads2021
I ended up devouring nine books in August! This is what happens when I find myself needing more rest while dealing with stress and recovering from a flare of my chronic illness. Since I can‘t eat much during a flare, I get hungrier than ever for words.🔸#augustreads2021
so-so3 STARS - This was a cute graphic novel that was a fast read and a good pick for this book nerd. Not as funny as I had hoped and a little too much of a Hallmark greeting card feel, but it hits all the points you'd expect.

When I‘m in the thick of my own real-life drama, my book picks tend to yo-yo back and forth between light-hearted and melodramatic. I read both ends of the spectrum in July. What do you like to read when you need to escape from the stresses of your life?🔸#julyreads2021
It‘s been a hectic summer, so I‘m in catch-up mode. In June I read six books, but I‘ll just mention four of them here: a couple of inspirational nonfiction titles and a favorite trilogy I started re-reading for my book club‘s July re-read theme. Choosing just a few titles was tough, as there are always at least a dozen books I want to re-read at any point in time. Which books have been on your re-read list for a while? 🔸#junereads2021
Quite a potpourri of titles this past month! Sometimes I like to mix it up. 🙂 #aprilreads2021
The common thread of all my reads in March seems to be perseverance and growth in times of struggle—which you could say is another way to describe life. #marchreads2021
Here are my February reads! I apparently decided to start Lent early with a couple of books on spirituality and faith. Since a close family member was recently diagnosed with cancer, I also wanted to read something that would help me be supportive to them. And after the stressful Texas winter storms, I was really craving some happy, achingly heartwarming stories, so I met the Vanderbeekers and fell in love with the whole family. #februaryreads2021
Trying a new twist this year on sharing my favorite reads. I love writing book reviews but am finding less time these days, so I‘m retiring my Book Review Roundup (at least for now) and instead I will be posting Monthly Reads, sharing my favorite titles each month with minimal comment. Here goes! Starting with January because I want to catch up. (Note: [at]alysonimagines is my Instagram handle.) #monthlyreads2021 #januaryreads2021
Not only do the staff at the local branch recognize me and my daughter, know our names - one of them puts aside books he thinks kiddo will enjoy! - they know my car now, and apparently recognize my voice when I call for curbside pickup. I think we might be their most frequent flyer these days.
Thank you @MittenGirlPeach for my lovely gifts in the #BookCupidSwap
I love everything. The book is something I know I'll read over and over. 😊 The truffles will probably go with me to work because sometimes I need chocolate at work! And I ADORE the tea light holder! And the tea light you put in there smells lovely. Thank you so much! And thanks @candority for putting this swap together!
pickYaaaaas! I have been wanting this book for so long! As soon as I opened this I read it all the way through and I LOVED IT! Thanks @magyklyXdelish it's the perfect gift for #BookCupidSwap. 😘

pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️📖 2020.10.11 Trying to get back in the habit of reading print books for at least 10 minutes a day. Grabbed this book given to me by @Louise and ended up finishing it in less than 30 minutes. So cute and so many scenarios for that are true reflections of me. It was also super satisfying to finish it in one sitting given how harried my days are of late.
pickIf you need to smile (and who of us doesn‘t now?), this is an excellent choice. I‘m utterly charmed. ☺️
pickOh my! If you haven‘t read this, then you need to. I think I can say this for all of us book lovers out there that this was written about all of us! I mean I never knew a graphic novel could encompass all of my thoughts and feeling about books and the stories within. I‘m excited to read more from Debbie. Sept 5/20 #bookspinbingo
pickIt was like someone put my inner thoughts as a reader on paper. There wasn‘t a page i read where I didn‘t think...THAT IS ME!!!
August Book 10/20 #LitsyLove
