Bookish success. I got my nonreader husband into audiobooks over the last year. While visiting his father, a voracious reader who isn‘t able to see well enough to read anymore, he started recommending audiobooks to him! Got the father set up with Libby and his library card and left him with several titles recommended by his son. I‘m feeling pretty good about that!

Well, friends, I have been complaining about my inability to comment on posts here on Litsy, so I want to take a moment to say that it appears the problem has been resolved!! Litsy staff replied to my initial complaint email, asked for more details, & followed up with me to let me know that they believed the problem had been fixed. I've commented on a BUNCH of posts tonight & all my comments have “stuck“ the first time!! I'm so happy!!
