Eggs I‘ve had several like #2 but dream of #9! (edited) 3d

uncommonlycozies @Eggs I hope you get the dream! 🥰 # 8 is in my dreams because I love to stargaze! I‘m so lucky to live beyond light pollution 🌠💫 (edited) 2d

BookmarkTavern I have 0 but I daydream of 8! ❤️ 2d

Eggs @uncommonlycozies Good point about #8! Glad you have clear night skies 🌟✨⭐️ 2d

uncommonlycozies @BookmarkTavern I say put me in that giant Christmas ornament- with some books of course- & hang me from a tree! 😁 (edited) 2d

How is your summer going (or winter, for our friends in the Southern Hemisphere)? Here in the US, we are halfway through summer 😨. Have you read 7 of your #14Books14Weeks yet? Or have you abandoned the dry-haystack of pre-chosen books for greener pastures?

I magically finished my 7th book yesterday, which would be on track if my reading-vacation hadn't happened in June so I won't have nearly as much time to read the rest of the summer.

Liz_M Dang it, the Tags didn't stick! 2w

sarahbarnes I‘m reading the 7th book from my stack right now! Like you, I‘m not sure I‘ll be as successful the rest of the summer so whether I‘ll finish the stack is TBD. I have definitely gotten distracted by some other books! 😂 2w

Jas16 I have finished my 10th book of the stack and am halfway through the 11th so I on track to finish on time. 2w

BookNAround I should probably check and see what books I originally put in my stack, eh? 😂 2w

GinaKButler I‘m halfway through book number 7! (Which is an enormous improvement over the past two summers). 2w

Mollyanna I‘ve read two, but have started 9 others 🤣. Does that count? Now, if I could only finish them… 2w

Leniverse Er... I've read 21 books. But only two of them are from that stack of 14 ? I started a third but put it down "for a couple of days" about a month ago. ? I'm really not good at sticking to a plan. 2w

Liz_M @sarahbarnes 7 is not bad, and distracting books seem so necessary these days! 2w

Liz_M @Jas16 Amazing! 2w

Liz_M @BookNAround 😂 I mean the best part of these challenges is choosing the books, right? 2w

Liz_M @GinaKButler Congrats on the fantastic progress! 2w

Liz_M @Mollyanna Hopefully you now know which ones you actually want to finish? 😁 2w

Liz_M @Leniverse Plans are made to be deviated from! 2w

Read4life I‘ve finished 8 and I‘m currently reading #9. 2w

Ruthiella I‘m not doing that well! 😅 Only two read so far and one in the works. I will do some catching up in August, hopefully.🤞 2w

Lcsmcat I‘m ahead, with 11 books. So even if I run into problems later I think I‘ll make it. 😀 2w

Bookwormjillk I haven‘t started 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️ 2w

Librarybelle I haven‘t started either, @Bookwormjillk . My stack is sitting on my dresser, judging me. 😂 2w

Bookwormjillk @Librarybelle I turned mine around so they couldn‘t judge me 1w

Librarybelle @Bookwormjillk 😂 1w

Liz_M @Read4life Excellent! 1w

Liz_M @Ruthiella Having read more than one is a win as far as I'm concerned! 🤓 1w

Liz_M @Lcsmcat Impressive! 1w

Liz_M @Bookwormjillk @Librarybelle Cats and pleasure reading is the priority this summer, so make sure your pets put those judgy books in their place (presumably by knocking the stack to the floor, if your cats are like mine 😂) 1w

Librarybelle @Liz_M I should move my stack to the nightstand; Xander loved knocking down the books there in the middle of the night! 😂 1w

squirrelbrain I‘m reading 12 and 13 at the moment! #smugface 😜 1w

AllDebooks @squirrelbrain Wow, well done! 👏 1w

AllDebooks I'm starting #8 of 14. 📚😀📚

Things that are

Zuhkeeyah I‘m now starting book no. 7! The stack is next to the couch so I can‘t ignore it 1w

Gissy No, im behind but i am working to finish them by September. It is a great idea because my tbr are a stack of books received in different swaps. So it is a an exited challenge 📚😃👌 1w

Liz_M @squirrelbrain Congrats! You must have chosen your books wisely! 1w

Liz_M @AllDebooks Nice, you're right on track! 1w

Liz_M @Zuhkeeyah Smart move! Unless of course one wants to lie down on that exact spot. 🤓 1w

Liz_M @Gissy Good way to add some extra motivation for the challenge, well done! 1w

mom2bugnbee I wasn't even counting but I just started book 8! Huzzah! 😁 1w

Liz_M @mom2bugnbee Huzzah, indeed! 1w

Catsandbooks I've only read 2, but it seems lots of others are in the same boat as me 1w

CSeydel I‘ve read 4, largely because I‘ve been working my way through a chunkster instead 1w

squirrelbrain @AllDebooks @liz_m I‘m just a list completist….set me a challenge and I *have* to do it! 1w

BennettBookworm I‘m definitely behind but hoping to catch up!! 1w

Liz_M @Catsandbooks Sounds like a win to me to me, you've read more than one from the stack! 😊 1w

Liz_M @CSeydel Four books plus a chunkster? Amazing! 1w

Liz_M @BennettBookworm Nicely done. Seven weeks is plenty of time to catch up! 1w

Aconight @Liz_M I read 4 from the list. But have been reading other physical books on my shelves. Need to finish an ARC then back to the stack 💕 1w

Liz_M @Aconight Sounds like your making some good progress on your tbr, regardless of what list/stack they are on! 1w

Book #8 of 2025: “Post” by Leo Herrera

Whatever your gender or sexuality, you should read this book. A compilation of social media posts from June 2020-November 2023, Herrera highlights COVID, grief, HIV and AIDS, queer history, the history of queerphobia, and more. I read this book slowly over several weeks and plan to reread it regularly.

Buy it from @herreraimages on IG

Margo's Got Money Troubles \ Margo Tiene Problemas de Dinero (Spanish Edition) | Rufi Thorpe

so-so

February 2025 Book #8 (last book read this month)

😬Another unpopular opinion🤷🏽‍♀️What is the purpose of this book? Margo tried to manage her dysfunctional parents by establishing emotional barriers. I still think she underestimate what happened with this professor. She tried to stand alone for herself and son by creating an “ethical kick-ass pimps of all time..” where “sex work can be a legitimate profession…then why not being a pimp?”⬇️

Gissy (Cont.) “an ethical pimp?🤔I thought there are other appropriate ways for persons who are sex workers and not depend on a “pimp”. Maybe I didn‘t understand Margo wonderful, unique work industry😏2⭐️ 2mo

If Mashed Potatoes Could Dance | Paige Shelton

Catching up on yesterday‘s #HaikuADay (Day #8) I didn‘t have a chance to breathe all day & I wrote this one last night at our company All Hands dinner.

In Hawaii the starch of choice at every meal is rice & the rice tray was refilled multiple times. Me, I‘m a potato girl! 🥔
(Sometimes you need a little silly in your haiku!) 😉

Ahh, Potatoes… 🥔

My favorite starch…
two decades on the island
taters still beat rice!

bellabella Yeah, I love me some good mashed potatoes and gravy or a nice baked potato with extra sour cream. But Mexican rice... Delish! I'm part Mexican, so I eat it almost all the time.
I'm torn between the two.
Fun haiku, though, @DebinHawaii! 3mo

If Clouds Were Cotton Candy | Laura E Falotico

#HaikuADay Day #8

I tried to post this morning from the airport & Litsy wouldn‘t let me & I was teaching class all day & just got home 14 hours later.😵‍💫Anyway, this one was inspired by my skylight view last night.

Pink Clouds ☁️💕

Clouds before sunset,
pink cotton candy edges,
view from my skylight

While everyone is posting their May tbr, I‘m still posting books read in January 😳🙄🤷🏽‍♀️☺️
January 2025 Book #8

I enjoyed this book inspired in real facts and real people. It motivated me to read about what happened in that period of time before WWII and about these characters. I couldn‘t put it down because I like novels inspired in this period of time. 3.8/4 ⭐️

Gissy #SundayBuddyRead @TheBookHippie that‘s why I like to participate in these buddy reads or Readathons because they give an opportunity to read books that maybe I would not read on a regular basis due to lack of time but it takes me time to finish them
