#BookHaul! I couldn‘t resist the NYRB children‘s book sale, and I #blameitonlitsy—specifically @TheBookHippie 😁

I‘m so excited about these! Three of them I‘ve been wanting to read for a while, and the Rumer Godden also sounded SO good—I justified buying it in order to get the maximum discount. Of course. 😆📚💜

TheBookHippie 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I got 8 and wrapped them for my birthday next week 👀🎉🤣 5d

BarbaraJean @TheBookHippie 😂😂😂 Yesss!! 🎉📚🎂🥳🎁Happy Birthday to you!!! 5d

Authority: Essays | Andrea Long Chu

Next round in my #bookishmonopoly journey! I got Random.org and put all my To Read books in a huge wheel thingy. It chose Authority by Andrea Long Chu which is totally a #blameitonLitsy 😁
I preordered the audiobook and can't wait to get it.

I'm curious, Littens!
1) Most recent book(s) purchased
2) Last completed book from a library
Since I'm posting this, full transparency
1) A HPB book haul: Steinbeck's “Travels with Charley,“ Kosinski's “Being There,“ “DF Wallace Reader,“ “Virginia Woolf Box Set“ Harlan Ellison “Greatest Hits“
2) I Dnf a book (King's Killing Time), prior to that was the excellent “Before Watchmen: Nite Owl & Dr Manhattan “

monalyisha Hmm. Last NEW book purchased was Deep Cuts. Last library book completed was The Marmalade Diaries. Technically, my last book purchase was a haul, as well, though, from The Book Barn in Niantic, CT (which is one of my favorite places). Paperbacks are typically around $4. I bought a whole towering stack. 1w

CarolynM Linden Rise by Richmal Crompton from a second hand bookshop in Albury at a stop on the road trip home from Sydney. Books are what I spend my money on, I rarely use libraries. The last book I borrowed from a library was Stepford Wives for a Litsy readalong a few years ago because I literally could not find a copy to buy. (edited) 1w

TheKidUpstairs 1. I've been buying too many lately! Last purchase was yesterday: The Feast by Margaret Kennedy. 2. Last completed from the library was an audiobook: The Woman They Could Not Silence by Kate Moore 1w

Deblovestoread 1) The Life of Herod The Great by Zora Neale Hurston. A #blameitonLitsy (specifically @TheBookHippie ) purchase. Most recent through Libby was

Midnight in Soap Lake: A Novel

shortsarahrose Just bought “Hyperbole and a Half” and “Solutions and Other Problems” by Allie Brosh yesterday. From the library, most recently finished “Tress of the Emerald Seas” by Brandon Sanderson 1w

Ruthiella I just bought “A Forgotten Home Child” for #OhCanada and last completed library book was for #EBBR

Encyclopedia Brown gets his man

BiblioLitten 1. Purchased Tom Lake by Ann Patchett and 2. Last Completed from the library was Still Life by Louise Penny. Both are #blameitonlitsy reads. 1w

Reggie 1. Eat the Ones You Love by Sara Maria Griffin and Overgrowth by Mira Grant. 2. I‘m in the middle of Say You‘ll Remember Me by Abby Jimenez. I‘ll be done with it tomorrow. 1w

dabbe 1. Last book purchased for me: The Book of Alchemy: A Creative Practice for an Inspired Life by Suleika Jaouad. Have I looked at it yet? Nope. But it's a pretty cover!
2. Last completed book by a library: THE MAN IN THE BROWN SUIT by Agatha Christie. I just finished it last night! 🤩
Thanks for the fun questions! 😍 1w

IriDas 1) The book that held her heart by Makr Lawrence. 2) The God and the Gumiho by Sophie Kim (edited) 1w

BarbaraJean 1. Last book purchase was a book haul: four books from the NYRB children‘s book sale (Secret of the Ron Mor Skerry, The Little Bookroom, A Traveller in Time, and An Episode of Sparrows), which, like @Deblovestoread I can blame on @TheBookHippie 😆
2. Most recent library book is tagged—I read the audiobook through Libby

This Changes Everything: A Surprisingly Funny Story About Race, Cancer, Faith, and Other Things We Don't Talk About

Suet624 1. Life Became Very Blurry by Garrett Graff, Wild Dark Shore by Charlotte McConaghy, Vermont by Charles T Morrissey (from 1981)
2. Demon Copperhead

You purchased some great books! 1w

Liz_M 1) Indy bookstore day: https://www.litsy.com/web/post/2860087
2) A Different Hurricane - set on and author from St. Vincent, a small Caribbean island-nation 1w

vivastory @monalyisha I keep seeing posts about Deep Cuts & as a music lover am def. intrigued. Paperbacks with decent fonts are my preferred reading format now. When I was at HPB the other day they had a great selection of mass market lit fic. 6d

vivastory @CarolynM Outside of necessities, books are what I mostly spend money one too! What were your thoughts on the Levin? I read Rosemary's Baby a few months ago & loved it. 6d

vivastory @TheKidUpstairs Solidarity on the purchase! Lol. Kennedy is def on my radar as like many others I have really appreciated the explosion of Irish authors. 6d

vivastory @Deblovestoread Hurston is 100% on my list of authors to read by the end of the year. I recently bought a book of essays & am really looking forward to them 6d

vivastory @shortsarahrose Love Allie Brosh! I have read only one of Sanderson's secret project books: The Sunlit Man (a good entry point for those new to Sanderson, I think) but I have heard interesting things about Tess 6d

vivastory @Ruthiella Was not familiar with the #ohcanada selection but it sounds interesting! 6d

monalyisha @vivastory Decent fonts are so important! Most mass market fonts are too small for me. Every copy of The Ivy Tree by Mary Stewart that I‘ve ever gotten my hands on has been *so* hard to read. I keep hoping to find one that works! 6d

vivastory @BiblioLitten I was at a family dinner a few months ago & my cousin's partner was trying to convince my aunt (also a reader) to read TL (which I haven't read), but I did chime in with my enthusiasm of Patchett as Dutch House is one of my favorites from the past few yrs. I also have the Penny on my TBR & am eager to get to it! 6d

shortsarahrose Tress was my first Sanderson. It definitely made me want to read more! Adding The Sunlit Man to my TBR. 6d

vivastory @Reggie Mira Grant is so great. Looking at her site I see that she recently published a book in the Aliens universe. Def intrigued. Did you ever read anything from her Parasitology series? I only read bk 1 but it's a series I always meant to continue. 6d

vivastory @dabbe One of my favorite reads this yr so far was Christie's N or M? I used to read her somewhat regularly & it had been a couple of yrs since, nice to pick up one of her books again 6d

vivastory @IriDas I have heard only great things about Lawrence's library trilogy. It's something I def want to check out 6d

vivastory @BarbaraJean NYRB has so many great imprints 💙 6d

vivastory @Suet624 Demon Copperhead is high on my list! Thanks, Sue! I def lucked out. I like to rotate between the HPB locations, never know what treasures I'll find 6d

vivastory @Liz_M Red Pill is a favorite. Love that edition of the Woolf 6d

vivastory @shortsarahrose I've heard others say that you need to have read several books of The Stormlight Archives, but I only read bk 1 of TSA & was able to follow along fine. There's def references to the Cosmere, but it works as a standalone story IMO 6d

BiblioLitten @vivastory Dutch House was the reason I picked up TL. 😊 6d

Branwen I need to hear more about this Virginia Woolf boxset! 👀 4d

1- tagged along with Cardinal Sins from our library store. Trying to curb spending. Incidentally they are both #blameitonlitsy purchases
2- yes but only here. I find GR to be overwhelming and lacking the social connection I need. I vet Amazon reviews against what Litsy had to say 😆
#wonderouswednesday @TheSpineView

TheSpineView I have made lots of #BlameItOnLitsy purchases! 💸📚 2w
