Welcome to Litsy!

A story in two parts.

[Part 2] We decided to be adventurous and pick up two "Blind Date(s) With a Book".

Left one is for yours truly; right one for Hubby.

And if you're curious to know the titles, spoilers will be revealed below!

Post 1 of 2

I purchased a #BlindDateWithABook over the weekend! They really went all out with the stickers and pens and bookmark and tabbies!

What is the book?!!! 📕

From my local LFL fresh Rhubarb and a mystery book

Wasn't vibing with Wind In The Willows (might try again someday), so I am trying this book out. I have put it on my #BookSpin list a couple of times. Gunna give it a go since its only like 3 hrs long. Should be able to finish it tomorrow if not tonight.

Oh and I got the other 3 books done on my TBR for May. I think that was the quickest I have ever read 3 books (in a 2 weeks).

Scrolling Instagram is both the worst and the best… Notably, a bookstore in Nelson, posted about a whole slew of blind dates with books that they had just wrapped up - and it showed up in my feed. And I wanted one. And I live no where near Nelson. But those wonderful humans told me the title and when I ordered it from them, they sent their wrapped version. Delighted! I‘ll put the title in a spoiler comment below.

I totally did not start this at lunch and then continued to read it at my desk by covering it up with reports. Not.at.all. 🤫😉😆

A cute, fast-paced novella-length romance. Bonus, it mentions quite a few romance books.

Book 4 for #AwesomeAugust

#integrateyourshelf POC author and MC + some LGBTQ+ representation in a minor character

Started the tagged and I know the book the first blind date with a book!

“He wanted a wife. She wanted to get paid for making a wedding dress.”

Do you know? I‘ll put the answer in comments with spoiler tag. 😀

This trilogy of novellas was just what the doctor ordered. Some insta-love, super alpha shifter, and a best friends romance. Not too much fuss with this but such great reads. Read each of them if you have the chance! #romantsy

I flipped the brown paper-wrapped book over and tested its weight.

Jordyn and Mike were a cute couple. This was a sweet novella that I read in one sitting. A nice tribute to romance novels, Culver City, romance, The Ripped Bodice bookstore, podcasts, and oh yeah, romance. The novella also celebrated diversity, and women in technology. Eden created an enjoyable book. I can see reading more of her work. I even liked the author‘s note at the end of the book.
