Welcome to Litsy!

I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it (some I‘ve had so long I don‘t even remember why!). Feel free to join in!

December #bookspon pick something light and fluffy for the busy season.

This was not my favorite holiday read and while it was cute at times, a large part of it was a major downer! Oh well… onto the next Christmas book!

Sarah, thank you for this surprise package I received in the mail! I love this author and this was so very sweet of you. ❤

@Jadams1776 I cleared the board!! Thanks so much for hosting this fun bingo.

PS for some reason the numbers on the prompt explanations didn't match their squares so that is why things are scribbled out at the bottom haha

I finished 3 books yesterday, so there will be a small review/post binge lol

This one was definitely on the soft side of pick, mostly because it was kind of a downer in many ways. Several people meet on a holiday cruise, so the story is about a pair of sisters, a pair of brothers, a father/daughter, and two best friends. I enjoyed the wider age range than these stories usually have, but it felt like each person was wrestling with something ⬇️

A sweet story about finding love during a cruise in and around Germany. “Don‘t cry because it‘s over, smile because it happened.”

I finished this on audio last night. It was a nice Christmas read- picture a Hallmark movie set on a Christmas cruise in Europe. The only thing that distracted me was it was written as if Covid was a blip that happened earlier this year and we all just needed to wash our hands. I don‘t blame the author since who knew things would get this bad, but it took me out of the story. Otherwise it was sweet and cozy and made me want to drink mulled wine.

Been audiobaking all morning. Hopefully the four of us are up to eating all these cookies. #TeamReadNoseReindeer #Wintergames2020

Do not start this one expecting it to be similar to last year‘s #Christmas From The Heart. In this story, eight people go on a holiday cruise and befriend one another while on the trip. They all had Big Life Things going on outside of the trip so it was great to see that they could rely on one another when it was over. I especially liked the end, which pulled the entire story together and was the most Christmas-y part🎄

Finished this book today before taking a nap! It was a fun holiday read. A group of people taking a river cruise and seeing some wonderful sites and Christmas markets across Germany end up becoming friends, and sometimes more. There are ups and downs but it's overall a special trip everyone is taking for different reasons. I loved all the characters and how everything ended.

It has been a low-key #Thanksgiving at my house today since the five of us stayed home. I loved this Thanksgiving more than any other, ever. I loved being with my family, just us. I realize so many are missing family and friends this year, I really do. Still, I am thankful for so much, including you guys, my Litsy friends!!

I‘m halfway thru this book and the dog is keeping my legs warm!! I love Sheila Roberts‘ stories.
