Welcome to Litsy!

#CharacterCharm #Librarian Nancy Pearl started recommending books on a Seattle public radio segment. It grew into a series of books . She recommended so many great books over the years , fiction, non-fiction, historical, series etc. Her books were always fun to browse, it‘s fun to pick a category you may not have tried before,she always has a knack for finding a good title to try to see if you might want to read further!

I was just flipping through the tagged book & noticed this. Nancy Pearl recommending the book years before the Netflix adaptation. I completely forgot about this.

Perhaps my most difficult 2020 resolution, goal, punishment, mountain to climb, is my self-declared aim to not purchase any books, new or used this year. My sister was to quick to be a good sister/bibliophile/enabler and say "Well you can't buy books for yourself, but that doesn't mean I can't buy you books ?!" In 2019 I said I could buy 1 new book a month and buy as many secondhand that I could lay my hands on and I took that to heart. (cont.)

These are out of Mere‘s genre so they‘re all mine! I 💖being able to swap books back & forth with my Mere! I am incredibly lucky! 📚💖🎶

This summarizes my life....💰📚💰📚💰📚💰📚

A close-up of our new #YA and adult books 😁! Library #bookporn #LitsyLovesLibraries

There were 8 more of these audiobook stacks before the initial batch was all said and done 😎👌🏻. See that table with stacked dvd's in the background? Yeah, the entire surface got covered. The new Circ Manager's eyes bulged when she saw how much material was returned after 2 days of being closed. I would've taken more pics, but my colleagues were grumbling I took the ones I did, we worked fast, lol. Library #bookporn. #LitsyLovesLibraries

This...was just the beginning 😆! I was in book heaven today 😁. The first batch of books in the previous post is to the right of this picture. Walls of books!!! Library #bookporn. #LitsyLovesLibraries

The problem is real📚📚📚!!!!!!#blamelitsy

When you're at an unfamiliar station and you google the nearest park only to arrive and see it's actually a plaza and is currently home to a huge used book sale 😍 eventually found a park with a playground but it was such a lovely feeling to walk into a park of books 😄 #tokyo #usedbooks

Nothing like a few voracious readers returning their borrowed treasures all at once. 🙂 Library #bookporn #LitsyLovesLibraries

This is 1 of the 3 equally-sized mountains that was created. Between the 2 groups, they estimate roughly 5,000 books between them. 😱😱😱😱😱😱 Well, I certainly got my workout in for the day 💪🏻. The Friends of the Library have a heck of a job ahead of them! 😆 Library #bookporn #LitsyLovesLibraries

Slow day today 😂😂😂. Library #bookporn #LitsyLovesLibraries

It's been a very, very busy time for YA and kid's books lately. 6 full shelves and 2 more started. Bring it on 😎! Library #bookporn #LitsyLovesLibraries

Currently working on "All is lost" ?

*Marilyn Monroe voice* Because the first two times today just weren't enough 😉... library #bookporn #LitsyLovesLibraries

*in a low, smokey voice* Yeah, I knew you couldn't get enough. You liked a well-stacked table, don't you? You can't deny it. This library #bookporn is just what you desire, isn't it? 😎👌🏻 #LitsyLovesLibraries

Just read this & thought of your post @merelybookish

Indeed

This is our cart of recent new-book returns. Anything catch your fancy? You know you want them all regardless 😎👌🏻. Library #bookporn. #LitsyLovesLibraries

And here's some of our extra copies that won't fit on the shelves. All hail the library #bookporn! Giggity! 😎👌🏻 #LitsyLovesLibraries

Text from my partner today included this fun image. All too true. We rarely talk about book life, so this was heartwarming 😂. He gets me!

Oooh! Are you done, or are you thirsty for more 😂? More library #bookporn!!! 😁👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻!!! 😎👍🏻 #LitsyLovesLibraries

Oooh! Feast thine eyes *flashes eyebrows* 😉. More library #bookporn!!! 😁👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻!!! 😎👍🏻 #LitsyLovesLibraries

Is there any way to organize your TBR on Litsy? I'm getting so many, it's hard to sort and decide what's next 📚📚📚 Any advice or strategies I could try? I'm addicted to Goodreads shelves, but I insta-TBR so much here and fail to do so there at the same time... #readerproblems #TBR #blameitonlitsy

And do you really think I would leave you hanging with only one dose of library #bookporn? 😆😇 #LitsyLovesLibraries

More library #book porn 😆😁👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻!!! I found out today that our Friends program has several large off-site storage containers crammed with BOOKS!!!! 😳😱😱😱😆😆😆😆😁😁😁😁👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻!!!! Oh, happy days (oh, happy days) oh, happy days (oh, happy days)!! I've got to get me a peek at them. This will have to do for now. #LitsyLovesLibraries

Why stop with one? I know you want more now 😉😎👌🏻. Cheers 🍻. Library #bookporn! #LitsyLovesLibraries

#aprilbookshowers day 13 #sequelplease! Like we need to find more to read!Nancy Pearl is great on the rare occasions you don't know what to read next.When I think of sequels I think of the Rabbit series by Updike and Bascombe by Ford . Unlike genre fiction that is intended to be a series, I get the feeling that Updike and Ford didn't plan it that way .Tom Tom and Crosby want a read aloud.

Here's an extra dose of library #bookporn for all of you bibliophiles out there 😎🙌🏻. All of this came back to the library this morning in a 5-minute timeframe. It was busy, busy, busy today! #LitsyLovesLibraries

And more library #bookporn for you to drool over 😉👍🏻🤤. #LitsyLovesLibraries

Being called lusty and a rock star is pretty much unexpected for a book of recommendations by a librarian. These are very true and fantastic blurbs.

my currently reading stack has me feeling overwhelmed.

Nancy Pearl keynoting our breakfast. If she had her way, this book would have been called 'Book Lust 2: The Morning After.". ???
She's amazing!!

i ❤ my book shelves.

Does anyone else have trouble picking a book when starting a new one? Especially when reading time is limited??? Everything and nothing sounds good, all at the same time. I feel like I have water water everywhere, but not a drop to drink!
