This is so me! I never think what clothes am I gonna pack, but rather which books am I gonna take. Plus, I always leave room in my bag to bring home any books I‘m sure to purchase on the trip. #bookpeopleproblems #booksareheavy

Bookwormjillk Same! 3y
RachelAmphlett Omg so funny - we‘ve just booked two weeks away (in country, not overseas) and this is EXACTLY my planning process 😂 3y

#AuthorAMonth
I‘ve seen lots of reviews so far this month, mostly good but some mixed feelings. I hope you‘re enjoying your reading.

Reminder that there will be two #AuthorAMonth prizes: one for most AAM books read this year, and one to a randomly drawn participant. I plan to call for final December numbers on Christmas and do the drawing on the 26th.

Happy Reading everyone!

CoffeeNBooks I'm enjoying the Hercule Poirot series! 3y
Cinfhen Me too @CoffeeNBooks !!! I honestly have no clue how many #AAM books I read @Soubhiville can u please share the list of authors from 2020 once more to refresh my memory 😘😘 3y
Melismatic I‘m about to start this coming week and am so excited! 3y
Soubhiville @Cinfhen if you‘re posting your monthly totals when I ask for them, I have a spreadsheet in which I keep your totals. And I‘m about to repost this year‘s list too 😁 3y
Cinfhen I never did a monthly tally tbh/ I‘m happy to skip the drawing this year and keep better track next year @Soubhiville 💜 3y
Soubhiville @Cinfhen TBH the front runner for number read is over 100, no one is catching her at this point! But I do have you on the spreadsheet, so you are entered. Other than the most read, numbers don‘t matter as long as you‘ve read even one. 3y
Soubhiville @melisma I hope you like your book! 3y
AmyG I only read one Poirot book, but really enjoyed it. @CoffeeNBooks 3y
CoffeeNBooks @AmyG I read/listened to The Mysterious Affair at Styles, and now I'm listening to Hercule Poirot's Christmas. There's been a very long set up before the mystery even begins. It's really good so far. 3y
AmyG @CoffeeNBooks I got an ebook with the first 3 Poirot books so eventually I will read the next two. Ha...I have so much to read. SO MNY BOOKS. 🤣 3y
CoffeeNBooks @AmyG I can relate, lol! 😂 #BookPeopleProblems 3y
Cinfhen Yeah, I think @Eggs has EVERYONE BEAT 😁🙌🏻 3y

Can‘t believe I kept skipping over this one (mainly because of the cover). Super entertaining! And uhhhh I‘ve now started my 7th new series in 2020. Will I ever catch up?

I first read this for the #botmchallenge back in 2017, and it‘s been in storage. I wanted to do a reread and found it on Scribd.

I thought this was wonderful in 2017, little did I know that it would be the first in a looong line of 80s-born millennial first-person essays. Now, I‘m tired of them.

I can‘t deny this one, most of them really, aren‘t well written and interesting, but it just doesn‘t seem as fresh as it did then. 4⭐️

Reviewsbylola Yeah I really didn‘t like this one. 4y
Megabooks @Reviewsbylola I remember that. I almost tagged the whole gang! We had fun. 👍🏻💖 4y

Cinfhen I remember reading this one and LOVING it!!! Even though on paper the author and I had nothing alike our families traditions, customs and dynamics were incredibly similar. I thought she was honest, funny and had a good eye for absurdity. Glad to know her collection held up on the re-read 4y
Megabooks @Cinfhen it definitely is one of the best first-person essays of its type. The only one I liked more was this one I‘m tagging. And as far as true memoirs, T Kira Madden‘s takes the cake!! But I don‘t get the obsession, in every collection it seems, with weddings. Then again, I‘m not a wedding fan in general. 4y
Cinfhen I‘ve added your recommendation because you do not steer me wrong... EVER!!! And YESSSSSSS, I am such a fan of (edited) 4y
Megabooks @Cinfhen awesome!! I hope you enjoy it!! 😁😁 4y
Cinfhen It‘s available on Scibd !!! I‘ll be adding it to my week‘s listens....thanks 😘 4y
Megabooks @Cinfhen 😁💖😘🎧 4y
Megabooks @Cinfhen are you still reading Saint X? I‘m three hours in now and riveted! 4y
Cinfhen I know!!!! It‘s sooo good but I‘m out with hubby and I can‘t listen to the audio 😩😩😩I cant wait to get back home 4y
Cinfhen I JUST got home!!!! We were out ALL day 😡 4y
Megabooks @Cinfhen yikes!! 👎🏻👎🏻 It is evening there now. Maybe bath and (audio)book? 💙 4y
Cinfhen After I prepare dinner...I‘m taking a shower and getting into bed with Saint X 💘 4y

I finally checked out the third book in Katherine Arden‘s Winternight trilogy...only to find out the last Kate Daniels book is out in paperback. So after much dithering, I‘m returning the library book and sidelining my TBR stack to continue my KD reread and blaze through the finish. #bookpeopleproblems

Stopped in at one of my favorite local bookshops last week to grab a few books I had ordered (and ended up leaving with several extras... whoops!) #bookpeopleproblems

I love this new tag-a-bookstore feature! Thanks @Litsy and @TimSpalding 🙃

AmyG This is a wonderful bookstore. I visited there last fall and bought a signed Neil Gaiman book. 5y
Soubhiville Are you an Austin dweller? Any interest in #LitsyATXReadersSociety? We meet this Saturday for our second meeting, at Central Library. 5y
Soubhiville Oh shoot, never mind, I see this is a NY bookstore. I saw your hashtag and got confused, as our biggest independent bookstore is Book People 😊. Enjoy you bookhaul! 5y
readtheworld @Soubhiville No worries! Thanks for letting me know about Book People — I‘ll be in Austin later this summer and will definitely visit it! (edited) 5y
readtheworld @AmyG Oblong is the best! I worked there for a few summers during college, and the owners are lovely. 5y

This bookshelf of books is very special because it has been entirely donated to our classroom from the one and only, truly amazing @TracyReadsBooks 💕💞💗 There are no words to express how truly grateful we are to have these current and popular books!! We can‘t wait to get them into the hands of our students!

Please think about donating books to your local public schools. Teachers will be so thankful 💝

MicheleinPhilly How wonderful. 6y
ElishaLovesBooks @MicheleinPhilly It is!!! We are beyond grateful! 6y
TracyReadsBooks You and Elizabeth and your students deserve ALL the books!!! I hope they enjoy them! Now all we have to do is find you a larger bookcase because I imagine (😉) there will be more books in your future! 💝📚💝 6y
