Welcome to Litsy!

January was ok, not spectacular -- no #bookspinbingo. As usual, I prioritized my library books (darn due dates!) and despite trying to decrease my library checkouts, I always find myself with more, especially when a Libby hold finally comes in after months!

On the plus side, I did manage to knock out my #doublespin pick (which was also on my #roll100 list. Although I wonder if I'll ever finish Demon Copperhead?

#BookspinBingo #January

15 books and 4 Bingos although I have split #HashtagBrigades Lark Rise to Candleford into its three separate book publications rather than counting the trilogy as one unit to get there.

And I am already for July with a new bingo board. I am aiming for half. #bookspinbingo

#LitsyLoveBingoJuly started on this bingo today. @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Read4life @TieDyeDude @julieclair

I‘m excited to get my #bookspin for next month. I read 1 of 2 for May and I‘m trying to finish the second before the end of the month. #doublespin #bookspinbingo

Even though I managed to finish 20 books this month (more than I have in quite a while!), I still didn't get a #bookspinbingo. I guess there were a couple books that could have qualified as DNFs, but for me, they were simply NRNs (Not Right Now).

Still it was a great reading month, including my first five-star (yes, I'm stingy with stars!) read of the year -- James.

@TheAromaofBooks

No bingo for February, but crossed off quite a few! #bookspin #bookspinbingo @TheAromaofBooks

@thearomaofbooks has shared the February #bookspinbingoboard Please see original post for additional info.

February #bookspin list 😁 January was a slow reading month, but we don't have much of anything planned for February, so the hope is to spend some time reading and relaxing. You have to stay active in Alaska to combat the darkness, but with the light returning, it'll be good to have some down time.

Have my first 2024 #BookSpinBingo board ready to go. Bookspin is Persuasion and DoubleSpin is a book off my #24in24 list. Looking forward to a great reading year with you all!

Starting my first full year participating in #bookspin

No bingos for the last #bookspinbingo of the year (I went off the list too much), but that just means more books to carry over into 2024!

@TheAromaofBooks

A decent month. I was prioritizing winter games books, of course.

#BookSpinBingo

January #Bookspin list

TWO whole bingos this month (and I was SOOO close to a third) for #bookspinbingo! If only I had been able to read on the long train ride to NYC -- I was so tired I couldn't keep my eyes open -- I might have finished even more. No complaints though!

@thearomaofbooks

#BingoParty Part 3 (and yes, I'll admit these are somewhat leaning towards the romcom aspect of holiday reading, because those are my favorites 😂 ) #WinterGames

For anyone trying to clear out their TBR in December I created #ReadingGoalsBINGO #RGB

Any way we can get another month in the year just to read 😳

Trying to finish up @Faranae 's Ultimate Reading Challenge by the end of the year. Again, suggestions for the prompts are much appreciated!

#BookSpinBingo

November #BookSpinBingo list. On vacation the first 10 days so not sure how much reading will actually get done.

@TheAromaofBooks

I know I'm a bit slow in doing all the items on this bingo #OctoberReadingBingo #TeamCryptKeepers but I did manage to get another bingo line. #Scarathlon @StayCurious @Clwojick

#Scarathlon #TeamMischiefAndMayhem

Anyone wanna do a little October bingo? #OctoberBookBingo

Yay for getting a #BookSpinBingo in September! It was a fairly productive reading month, but still have a lot I want to finish before the end of the year.

@TheAromaofBooks

#ISpyBingo You wouldn't believe how many books I read this month with windows on the curtains but no visible curtains. But the windows in The Enigma Game definitely have blackout curtains, even if they're not obviously visible. 😂

Question: What is #bookspinbingo? I've never participated before, but I want to give it a try for #scarathlon

September‘s #bookspin bingo board. I have a pretty good feeling about this month.

#BookSpinBingo

Usually the 5 free spaces give me enough room for mood reading but August changed that so I threw in a few more for September.

@TheAromaofBooks

No bingos in July, but I can't complain too much considering how much time I was spending packing and moving (now I'm just UN-packing!). Half of my books (all of the Free spots, in fact) were on audio, which is not my preferred way to read. But sometimes that's what you have to do!

#bookspinbingo @TheAromaofBooks

#BookspinBingo

I am way behind on the #14books14weeks so am hoping to get through all those plus a handful of buddy reads.

How is it August already? Summer has been lovely and I‘m not ready to say goodbye yet.

I never even got a bingo board made last month. But I have my list and my board ready for July @TheAromaofBooks #bookspinbingo

Maybe June will be my #BookSpinBingo month! Off to a decent start with one down already. 🤞🏻 #BookSpin this month is Broken, in Kelley Armstrong‘s Otherworld series, and #DoubleSpin is The Poisonwood Bible from last month‘s #Roll100 picks.

Got my #bookspinbingo list ready in the nick of time! I didn‘t read as much last month - I took crochet classes and have been spending a lot of free time practicing that (you can see the bottom of a book sleeve I made!). Hopefully this month I can read more!

I had 1 bingo in January but did not read my #bookspin or #doublespin 😬

I‘m too tired to crop my photo, ignore the weighted blanket 🤣

repost for @Andrew65:

Above is the optional part of the #WinterReadathon -- a bingo card. The aim is to try to find those words in your reading during the Readathon.

One of the aims is to cover the whole board, or individual lines but we‘ve also got some separate weekly challenges too.

These are detailed below starting each week with a blank bingo card, remember this is an optional but help generate some fun in the reading.👇
