Welcome to Litsy!

Lol.

“It‘s better to be one who is told to wait than be one who waits to be told.” P. 88
(This was NOT something encouraged me when a child. Far far safer to hide and read a book... Hard for me as an adult to DO rather than wait. Eek.)

@Abby-J I have a few questions for the potterhead swap! 1. Do you already use coloring books? 2. Do you prefer markers, pencils, or crayons? 3. Who are your three favorite HP characters?

Hey all! So, I've got a couple Litsy questions.....

How do I participate in the photo challenges? I want to do the February one but I'm not sure how to go about it...

Also, how do I repost the *text* from another Litten's post?

Thanks you all! Have fun on the second day of your #24in48!

#Jess7 and I have a question for the people who participate in our monthly #LitsyBuddyRead.

We would like to take a poll to see if we should change up our discussions.

We are wondering if you would prefer:
1. Weekly discussions with a reading schedule
-OR-
2. No schedule and have one discussion towards the end of each month

Please comment below with your thoughts!
Thank you!

Okay, i need help, again! How in the world do you change the currently reading part on your profile, here? I tried clicking the little reading glasses but it only sends me to the book. Can anyone help me? Thanks! I love this site and everyone on it!

It depends... I do both depending on the series.

📚 Earl Grey
📚 My balcony, with a large cup of coffee
📚 I think it was Crime and Punishment by Dostoyevsky. One of my all time favorites

Daughter had first english lesson on Gatsby today. Part of her homework is to do some reading on mid-west America in the 1920's. She's done some net searching but nothing has really come up. Ideas - reference books or web sites would be greatly appreciated. Thank you 😀

Cosmo wants to know....what's the best science fiction you've read lately? 😹 actually my husband wants science fiction soon, and honestly I don't read that much. Plus I would prefer we get something that's not overly heavy on the dudes and patronizing. Feminist sci-fi, anyone? #catsoflitsy

#bookishquestionoftheweek
@BookishGirl06

This is just a question - I am looking for books on sailing for my niece who is 12 -- any ideas of a good novel or non-fiction book ( not scary)? Thanks, Littens!!

Sometimes I listen to music, but not typically. Usually I have the t.v. playing or just silence.

#bookishquestionoftheweek
@BookishGirl06

I usually prefer silence. Very rarely do I use music and even then, it has to have no lyrics.

Either comment below or tag me with your responses.

#bookishquestionoftheweek

1. Crack all the spines! I mostly read paperbacks and I love cracking the spine on a new book.
2. Tea all the way! Though I do love drinken iced coffee in summer.
3. Fantasy
4. Evening. I don't ever have time in the morning.
5. Own a bookstore! I have already plannend how it will look and everything 😀

@Kalalalatja #BookishWouldYouRather

I'm stealing The picture too! This is fun! 1.paperbacks - just easier. 2. Only read new books - very rarely reread 3. Library girl 4. Same book cover 5. Lord of the rings 6. The bigger the better 500 + #bookishwouldyourather

Okay, I stole @Kalalalatja's picture to answer her #BookishWouldYouRather questions.

1. Hardbacks
2. New reads please
3. Buy (libraries are a wonderful thing if only people treated the books better and didn't leave strange spots, odours,... in them)
4. Same cover
5. GoT
6. More than 500 (supersize me etc, more is better, most of the time)

How do you find reading time when life/work gets super busy?
About a week ago, I always used to find time for bedtime reading and during commuting - lately pretty knackered and finding 'sleep' more appealing than reading 🤔

This was a super quick read, and a borrowed book from work. Found it interesting but really not a lot of new information. I'd be willing to look into the actual workbook to see what benefits I could find. Plenty of good ideas here.

Hey Littens I am wondering if you could help me out. I am looking to get a book for my Dad about Sweden but I am not sure what to get. Any recommendations? He is a nature and history buff. Thanks in advance for your help! 😃
