Welcome to Litsy!

This story had some really great messages, but it was difficult staying interested; and it‘s only 144 pages. There were threads of the story that had promise but didn‘t really seem to go anywhere. #NewberyEpicChallenge

Thanksgiving reading and working on finishing a reading challenge. Claiming this for a children's classic I've never read because #NewberyMedal means classic, right?

1. I guess I read this book at the exact target age bc I still remember a quote from it (see comment).

2. Pie, as long as it‘s GF & soy free. Dietary restrictions mean cake is either a total nope or...not good.

3. I quilt as a meditation practice.

4. NYC, no question. I‘d need a (much) higher income to afford the cost of living there though.

5. Tagging ppl makes me angst. 🤭

Rereading a #bookfromchildhood is not always a great idea. I wrote a mini review here -

Oh mylanta! I'm reading! And sort of focusing! And it's a book that would count toward my 2018 goals!

Today in the life of Catherine Hall, the heroine of my current Newbery read. Thankfully there's no severe weather where I am, just really cold! #novemberbythenumbers

Seeing I'm living in New England I can't help but to be intrigued by the journal of a New England girl... And it doesn't hurt that it's a Newbery Metal winner. 😉
