The Stranger Times | C.K.McDonnell

IT‘S HERE! IT ARRIVED!! 🔔🔔🔔 And I‘m off work today (I‘m a firm believer in using alllllll your PTO, even if you don‘t have any plans with it. Use it!). This is just perfect!! And Christmas decorations are all out of the crawl space and on the main floor, so we‘re one step closer to all that happening too 😅 #bookmail

Glitz, Glam, and a Damn Good Time: How Mamie Fish, Queen of the Gilded Age, Partied Her Way to Power | Jennifer Wright

#FridayHappyReadingHour is here! Enjoying some Coke Zero along with this book from my TBR pile. Funny story: I was hoping to start the book I ordered last Friday night, but no. I‘ve been watching the tracking history on it and it got to the post office 5 miles from my house which usually means the next stop is my local post office and then it‘s out for delivery. Not this time… (cont‘d in comments)

Aims42 … This time, it left that post office 5 miles from my house and went to Omaha, NE which is 442 miles from my house. So, yeah. That‘s fun. 2w

Aims42 @mcctrish I saw the text and was like, “oh, maybe it‘s pulling up an old tracking number? That can‘t be right”. Nope. My book is taking one last adventure before sitting on my shelf 🙄 2w

TheBookHippie Oh I feel you 😵‍💫 2w

Aims42 @TheBookHippie Thank you! I know USPS is severely underfunded and their infrastructure is being held together with string and bubble gum, so I‘m trying to be chill about it. But, did it have to be a book?! 😭😭😭 2w

TheBookHippie @Aims42 it‘s my daily experience unfortunately … @dabbe just got a letter recently from me after A MONTH … 2w

BkClubCare I‘m sorry abt your books adventure beyond arrival at your house! #sigh 2w

Aims42 @TheBookHippie 😳😳😳😳 a month?!? Yikes!!!! 2w

Aims42 @BkClubCare Thank you, readers know the real struggle of being patient with #bookmail 😩 2w

dabbe @TheBookHippie @Aims42 And it looked like it had been literally “around the world in 80+ days.“ 🤣 2w

dabbe That totally sucks! Like you said, they are underfunded, but still! Every time I have to physically go to a post office, I look like this 😮‍💨 before I even walk in the door because I know I'll be there forever. 2w

Aims42 @dabbe LOL! Glad your letter had an adventure and eventually got to @thebookhippie Yeah, I have to give myself a pep talk in the car every time I visit mine too 😬🫠🫣 2w

Tamra I‘m hearing Etta James…..”At lllllaaaaasssssttttt” (edited) 2w

Saltwash: The Chilling New Novel from the 'Master of Menace' | Andrew Michael Hurley

It‘s a dangerous business, reading the emails Blackwell‘s sends me… especially when the book that snags my attention doesn‘t even come up with a “notify me” option on Libby… WHAT IS A GIRL TO DO?
(Obviously in this instance I went right ahead and ordered it since this is a #bookmail post, the photo does not do the gold foil justice, I‘ll have to wait for the sun to try again)
