BlameItOnReggie

Camp Carnage | Elliot Arthur Cross

#ScarathlonDailyPrompts #Killer #Scarathlon2022 #TeamMonsterMash This one has been on my TBR for a while. Ever since I heard about it from @Reggie a couple years back. I‘m hoping I get to it this month. In fact when I heard about the They/Them (They Slash Them) movie that came out recently, I thought it was based on this book because it‘s a similar premise (killer at an evangelical conversion camp). +6pts

StayCurious

Reggie Ohhhh, I hope you read this. I loved it. And last time I checked it was still free on Amazon. 2y

Ruthiella Another successful #Reggimendation ! 👍 2y

rwmg @reggie @ruthiella I read it last year - also originally from Reggie's review, I think. Great fun. 2y

Reggie @Ruthiella @rwmg 🖤🖤🖤 2y

MatchlessMarie @Ruthiella I love the tag! I almost tagged this as #BlameItOnReggie bahaha 🤣 2y

Absalom! Absalom! | William Faulkner

#weeklyforecast for me and #hiselderliness

I‘m going to continue with Absalom Absalom and hopefully get into IQ as well, which is a #blameitonReggie read 😂

Two nature books for dad. Had to wait for weeks for the Wilding book at the library - seems very popular!

Cinfhen

Cinfhen I bought that Douglas Adams book on Kindle last year...I‘ll be curious to hear your dad‘s thoughts 😉

readordierachel I've heard good things about Wilding! Also, is that a dahlia up there in the corner 😍 5y

Centique @readordierachel yes! It was a crazy huge dahlia - but not from my garden unfortunately - at a hotel I was staying at. 5y

Reggie I hope you like IQ! I need to get to the 2nd one. 5y

Red, White & Royal Blue | Casey McQuiston

pick

This book was a #blameitonlitsy #blameitonreggie 😂
I don‘t do romance but I did enjoy this a lot. I found myself smiling constantly and it was quiet sexy too!
It was ‘charming‘ as the British would say.
❤️🤍💙❤️🤍💙❤️🤍💙❤️🤍💙❤️🤍💙❤️🤍 Thanks for the recommendation @Reggie it was nice to read something totally different and out of my comfort zone!

Reggie Yayyy!!! Glad you liked it! I loved when he was rooming with the turkey. There was more humor in here than I thought there‘d be. 5y

Cathythoughts Nice review! I don‘t like romance novels either, but I think this may be an exception. I have it stacked already 5y

Rissreads @reggie Yes I laughed a lot but I also had my heart ripped out whenever Alex called Henry ‘Baby‘ ❤️ 5y

Rissreads @Cathythoughts just give it a go, it might surprise you. It was fun, not real life, but I do wish the US had a female president! (edited) 5y

CarolynM It's a delight. Glad you enjoyed it🙂 5y

Top row is my week ahead -
Sill going on The Once and Future King
Just started Tender at the Bone and Red, White and Royal Blue has just come in at the library. #blameitonreggie 😂@Reggie

Bottom two are what I‘m adding to dad‘s pile #hiselderliness Not looking very uplifting are they? 😉
Plus - A random snap of some vases I‘m tempted to buy - they‘re more cheerful!

Reggie I hope you like it!!! It‘s very cute and a much needed escape. 5y

Cinfhen Those vases are adorable 😍 I‘m nearly done with Red, White & Royal blue...so fun BUT a bit extra steamy 🙄I‘m listening on audio and my 18 year old was all “what are you reading???” He‘s now calling me the smutty mum 5y

Cinfhen Also your choices for #HisElderliness are definitely going to add to his fury!!! I wonder if he‘d like

Born a Crime

Cinfhen I‘d also get him this book

The Feather Thief: Beauty, Obsession, and the Natural History Heist of the Century

Centique @Cinfhen don‘t worry, I can handle the 🔥🔥🔥😂so funny that your kid overheard it! Dad‘s read Born a Crime and enjoyed it but the other one is a good idea. I‘ll put it on his list! 5y

CarolynM I liked Red White and Royal Blue a lot. It's ridiculous but very charming🙂 5y

TrishB Great plans 👍🏻 5y

Cathythoughts I‘m getting curious about Red White & Royal Blue ! Have a good week to you & to his Elderliness too X 5y

Need to finish Good Omens and It‘s All in Your Head so I can start Frankly in Love and Autumn Light.

Frankly in Love is a #blameitonreggie addition to my TBR @Reggie 😆🥰 You are one charming TBR saboteur creating toppling piles of books all around the globe 😘😘😘

Cinfhen

Cinfhen I was going to say I remember @Reggie review about

Frankly in Love

Reggie I hope you like it!!! 😊 5y

Jeg I found Its all in your head, very very interesting. Have a friend with a teenage daughter who could well fit into this. 5y

Centique @Jeg I found it so fascinating too. I have a niece with unexplained illness who has had every test known - and this seemed to have some possible answers. 5y

My Struggle: Book One | Karl Knausgaard

This is what all I picked up at the used bookstore today. Fill a bag for $17, but My Struggle Book 1 was specially priced at $4, so total was $21 plus tax. Not bad!

Some are #1001Books. The Wolitzer is #blameitonReggie 😂. I read The Bonfire of Vanities way back when, and wanted to re-read (someday).

Reggie

Reggie I haven‘t read that one by her but I‘m sure I‘ll circle back for it. Nice haul!!! 7y

LauraJ Not bad at all! 7y

Cinfhen Nice haul!!! I really liked

Reviewsbylola What Remains is excellent. Nice haul!! 7y

DivineDiana Wow! I loved The Lady in Gold. Attended a lecture about it as well. Have you seen the movie with Helen Mirren? It too is well done. Now, I just need to see actual painting in NY! 7y

BarbaraBB Great haul 😍 7y

ValerieAndBooks @Reggie I‘ll get to the Interestings first though because I had that one already 😊! 7y

ValerieAndBooks @LauraJ it takes a lot of careful packing of the store‘s bag to maximize the haul...I think this is a record number for me 😊! 7y

[DELETED] 3803335244 Nice! 7y

ValerieAndBooks @Cinfhen good to know you liked it...I‘m a sucker for almost anything about art! 7y

ValerieAndBooks @merelybookish thanks! I got lucky 😊 7y

ValerieAndBooks @rachelk I‘m trying to decide if I should read the Baldwin now before the month is over and Duncan Jones moves onto March, or read in order of his recs 🤔! 7y

ValerieAndBooks @Tamra 😊📚😊📚😊!! 7y

ValerieAndBooks @LauraBeth I love @Reggie‘s blurbs 😄!! 7y

ValerieAndBooks @emilyhaldi @Reviewsbylola I read What Remains many years ago, and regretted I didn‘t keep my copy (moves and all that). Was glad to find a copy again! 7y

ValerieAndBooks @LeahBergen 😊👍 @DivineDiana I haven‘t seen the movie based on this book yet. I need to see the actual artwork, too. I‘ll try to read this when I know I‘ll visit the museum it‘s in! 7y

rachelk @ValerieAndBooks I‘d read Baldwin now, but that‘s just me - you can‘t go wrong either way! 🙂 7y

ValerieAndBooks @britt_brooke 😊 now I just need to read faster!! 7y

ValerieAndBooks @Zelma thanks! Now to really get cracking on my ever-growing TBR 😅! 7y

ValerieAndBooks @BarbaraBB it‘s a good place for me to find books off of the #1001books list 😊 7y

ValerieAndBooks @ForeverNerdy 😊 I‘m excited 😆!! 7y

Zelma @ValerieAndBooks I always look at my TBR as the pile of endless possibility. And I‘ll never run out of something great to read! 7y

LeahBergen @DivineDiana @ValerieAndBooks I liked the movie, too, bought the book after seeing it. I haven‘t seen this painting but I did see a big Klimt exhibit that was glorious. 😃 7y

Cinfhen Hey @DivineDiana do u want to try and meet up in NY to see the Klimt, you as well @ValerieAndBooks ?!?? I‘ll be in NY from Friday March 9 until midday Tuesday March 13 7y

DivineDiana @Cinfhen That would be fun! There is a new bus line out here in the Burbs that I have been wanting to try! @ValerieAndBooks 7y

DivineDiana @LeahBergen The exhibit must have been divine! I enjoyed the history of Klimt and his relationships in the book. Highly recommend. 7y

Cinfhen Like a Bolt Bus??? @DivineDiana 7y

Cinfhen I‘m gonna go online and see if we need to order tickets etc and I‘ll let you know what I discover @DivineDiana @ValerieAndBooks 7y

DivineDiana @Cinfhen Yes, like a Bolt Bus. It is OurBus and the stop is in Malvern. 7y

Cinfhen Where does it drop you off in the city?? @DivineDiana 7y

ValerieAndBooks @Cinfhen @DivineDiana I‘d love to do this, but we‘ll be in Boston that weekend for older son‘s senior concert. I‘m sure you‘ll have fun if you go 😊!! 7y

DivineDiana @Cinfhen It looks like there are 2 stops. Either the Port Authority or Madison between 26th and 27th 7y

Cinfhen That sounds like a great weekend @ValerieAndBooks sorry u won‘t be around! 7y

ValerieAndBooks @DivineDiana I‘m glad to know about this bus service going out of Malvern! More convenient than going into Philly first. @Cinfhen 7y

Suet624 That‘s fantastic! 7y

DivineDiana @ValerieAndBooks Yes! 7y

DivineDiana @Cinfhen Yes. I‘ll check my calendar and email you some dates that could work for me. Safe travels! My email is dmillerick@comcast.net 7y
