💙 I filed our taxes yesterday. Usually I file in February, but I've just had no mojo this year.
💙 Delightful

Here‘s my March recap. It was a great reading month & I finished 23 books! (Including 5 audiobooks, 19 fiction, 4 NF, many genres, several children‘s & classics)

I read for #SundayBuddyRead #NancyDrewBR #BobWhiteBuddies #EBBR #AuthorAMonth #ChildrensClassicRead2025 #SheSaid #RiseUpReads #JaneAustenThenAndNow #BookedInTime #FoodAndLit #Roll100 #ThematicCozies #FictionalTraveler #MonthlyNonFiction #SeriesLove2025 & #AuldLangSpine #SeriesLove2025 ⬇️

DebinHawaii …My favorites of the month were The Frozen River, Nettle and Bone, Kills Well With Others, Not That Bad, All Systems Read & Pride and Prejudice (reread for the zillionth time) & The Great Gatsby (hadn‘t read since high school) was a surprise winner. Lots of series books too—including both the 1940 & 1976 versions of our monthly Nancy Drew title. (edited) 1w

Thanks to @TheBookHippie and #ChildrensClassicRead2025 for reminding me that I had this sweet (tagged) book waiting on my shelves. And, as others have mentioned, the illustrations are gorgeous!

I always pick up these New York Review Children‘s Collection editions when I spot them in used bookshops.

April #childrensclassicread2025

I enjoyed this sweet little story of Mary and her mouse house but mostly I enjoyed the illustrations, they felt very nostalgic for my childhood reading days.

Such a cute book with adorable illustrations! 🐭 🏡
I finally read an archive book that @TheBookHippie shared the link of.
It‘s much easier to read on my computer than my phone. 🤩
I love the library card 🩵
Juniata College Library is now named L A Beeghly Library & Juniata College was founded in 1876 by members of the Church of the Brethren.

#Read2025

I finished this one last night for #ChildrensClassicRead2025 & it‘s a soft pick for nostalgia for the author. I found it too long & disjointed with it being separate stories really rather than cohesive chapters. It could be because I waited for the end of the month & was hurrying a bit but I had a hard time keeping track of all of the family & other characters. It did have some charming moments though.

TheBookHippie It is not my favorite of hers but like you some of the passages I really enjoyed! 2w
LeahBergen It‘s not a favourite of mine either but … you‘re right. Any LMM is usually good for a hit of nostalgia, isn‘t it? 😊 2w

#Naturalitsy #HyggeHourReadathon

Tonight‘s #HyggeHour is being spent with Marigold. Trying to finish this one for #ChildrensClassicRead2025 March. My drink is coconut tea & my snack is a haupia (coconut) cupcake. (Which is yum!) 😋

My mood is a little tired & wishing the weekend was longer as it will be another busy work week ahead.
