November‘s #bookspinbingo list! #bookspin#doublespin

#PageItForward

Anyone interested in these two books? They're paperback and I've owned them for 10+ years. Some shelf wear but no writing or highlighting in the pages.

I'm happy to pass them on to a fellow reader. In the US please since they're so large.

Just comment below if you'd like them. 💚

I‘m used to the traditional “Tell them what you‘re going to tell them,” Tell them,” “Tell them what you‘ve told them” of instruction, because “Tell them,” “Tell them,” ad nauseam gets old. Any Rand beats you over the head with her philosophy. Okay, fine, I knew this before I began reading the book. I read it for the story, not the philosophy. Unfortunately, the story is predictable: boy meets girl, girl hates boy, girl loves “ideal” man. The end.

Epic! I have read this book twice in it‘s entirety and have reread passages countless times. This book has not only stood the test of time, it is arguably more relevant now than ever.

So much goodness this month. A pretty good month for me. #Februarywrapup

I waited too long to read this! I've heard so much about it over the years, positive and negative, and I've owned a copy of it for a long time. I was always intimidated by my paperback copy's girth, and on the shelf it sat. I ended up using an audible credit for the version read by Christopher Hurt. I'm glad I did. His performance was fantastic and I really liked the novel. I followed along and read some of it in my chunky paperback along the way.

I just picked this up at a local library sale, its a bit daunting if you ask me

Check your premises. #whoisjohngalt ❤️

Yooouuuu guuuyysss!!! I‘m finally finished! This beast of a book is definitely an investment of time and energy, but it‘s no shrug. (Hehe get it?) This Book was definitely before its time. I loved the strong female lead and the statements about government regulation, socialism, beaurocracy and capitalism. Not to mention the exploration into the meaning of existence. Light read: no. Good read: yes

The Margaret Thatcher starter pack!

This was me about 5 years ago when a local bookstore, that had closed, reopened their doors to try to clear their stock before the building was demoed. Side note: that building still stands in Long Beach, CA

Just posted an update on my blog if anyone wants to check it out. Just a little bit about what I'm reading 📚 www.ashsscript.com

Taking a break from reading and listening to Atlas Shrugged as I get into the 5th hour

Books that seem #impossible and intimidate me. But one day, I will conquer you all! 😬💪🏻 #LyricalApril
Side note: I had started House of Leaves, but how the pages are set up left me feeling a little wonky, so I took a break from it - but I did love the story!

Ugh. Crap day at work. Manager being a turd, customers being turds. Best fix? An evening with my best buddy and a favorite certain book I am rereading. Life is so good when you have books to make things better ♡ #catsoflitsy #readingcompanion #littenkitten #loki

But she felt no anger or anxiety; she had no time to feel.

Better later than never? Yep!

What better place to spend a wedding anniversary than in a bookstore!!

This is the first book that came to mind when I saw the planes, trains and automobiles prompt. This book has so much about trains in it. I once also saw a train car in Boston that had been named "Dagny Taggart" after the character in this book. There is also a scene in the book where Dagny flies a plane, so that's two of the three. #planestrainsautomobiles #photoadaynov16

This book has made short work of everything I previously believed just and righteous, and laid foundations for new, unrivaled, completely original though. 💛

My all time favorite book! I read it for the first time at 19 and it rocked my world~

#whoisjohngalt ? One of my fave quotes and it's the first line in the first chapter. Love this book! #aynrand #quotes #atlasshrugged
