Welcome to Litsy!

I‘ve been at a work conference in Wrightsville Beach for the last three days, so I‘m a bit behind with turn-of-the-month. I intentionally read slower, released any stress over pub dates, and allowed myself to bail on things I wasn‘t enjoying, for the most part. So, I only finished 6 books. I‘m not sure how I feel about it, since I usually get through twice that, but it was really nice to be able to do other things without stressing over my TBR.

I‘m home from Paris 🇫🇷 ❤️and my first job after cuddling and kissing 😘 the pups 🐶 unpacking & doing laundry was to write my September bookspin bingo list 😆Iv had to re write ✍️ due to those pesky library 📚 reserves which you forget about 🤣 I had a great 👍 reading month in August so fingers crossed 🤞 everyone for some fabulous 4&5 star 🌟 reads 🤓😘 @TheAromaofBooks thank you 🤗

I cannot believe it‘s already time for a new #bookspin list. I‘m considering this a tentative list as there are a couple of titles I‘d like to get to this weekend. If I read anything from the list, I‘ll replace it with a category, either “libro fm challenge” or “feels like fall”. I‘m in the mood for a good autumnal read and I‘m open to suggestions/recommendations.
(Edited to replace book I started yesterday.)

We are less than a week away from SEPTEMBER!! September of TWENTY-TWENTY-FIVE HOW IS THIS REAL LIFE!?!?!

But seriously, time is flying as always, and if you'd like to join in this month's #BookSpin/#BookSpinBingo (before or after your mini-existential crisis, whatever works best 😂) it's time to start thinking about your lists!!

The weather here has finally cooled off (it's a PERFECT morning and the windows are OPEN) so I am feeling good ⬇

I think I finally have my July #bookspin list completed. I can‘t wait to see the bingo board. I‘m hoping to have extra reading time with a 3-day weekend and at least one day off work for a doctor appointment, because there‘s a lot on here that I really want to read.

This summer is absolute chaos in my household. Three kids moving in August (one across town into his first house, one to NYC post college graduation, & one into a college dorm), college orientation, dorm shopping, and helping out with dog sitting because my daughter is triple booked. Here‘s hoping I have time to actually read and that my reading is able to help me through! 😵‍💫🫠❤️📚

Oh my gosh, there is only one week of June left! Which means we are only one week away from being HALF WAY THROUGH 2025! If you‘re planning to spin in July it‘s time to start thinking about your list. See @TheAromaofBooks ‘s original post for details about the end of year giveaway.

Oh my gosh, there is only one week of June left!!! Which means we are only a week away from being HALF WAY THROUGH 2025!!! I'm still trying to wrap my head around the fact that years begin with “20“ so we can all see how well I'm doing with the passage of time 😂 Anyway, I hope everyone is having a lovely summer so far (or a cozy winter, depending on where you are!). We are in the midst of an intense heat wave, unusual for this early in the ⬇
