Mrs Khokhlakova had been indisposed for three weeks now:she had for some reason developed a swollen foot and she spent the afternoons reclining on a couch in her boudoir dressed in an attractive but proper déshabillé. Alyosha had observed that in spite of her illness Mrs Khoklakova had begun to play the fashionable lady: there had appeared certain items of headgear, certain bow-ribbons and matinée jackets…

Ruthiella Where did you get that sofa? Don‘t tell me you made it! 😳 2w
Aimeesue @Ruthiella Welllll, yeah. This is apparently my hobby now, making furniture for Little People. 😂 (edited) 2w
Aimeesue It‘s just fabric hot glued to cardboard, with a wooden block covered in the same fabric + wooden beads for feet. Didn‘t take that long to make, actually! 2w

As always, my goals are to keep up with my challenges and read books I actually own. I set my Goodreads goal at 75 books so we‘ll see. 🤞🏻

#ReadAway2024 @Andrew65 @GHABI4ROSES @DieAReader

DieAReader Great to have you!! Awesome goals! 3mo
Andrew65 Brilliant, this seems to be a common theme for a number of people. Good luck 😁 3mo

#Two4Tuesday @TheSpineView

1. No goals. I suppose the closest thing to a plan that I have is just making sure I read a little every day. Usually I end up reading 40-50 books in a year.

2. None. I'm challenged enough as it is. 😆

TheSpineView I get #2! Thanks for playing and happy Tuesday 3mo
dabbe Will do; thanks for the tag! 🖤💙🖤 3mo

I was rummaging around in my TBR closet looking for Fayne and repeatedly had the thought I need to stop acquiring books.

Anyone else plagued by negative thinking?

P.S. I didn‘t find Fayne and I have this nagging feeling I culled it. Oh well, guess I need to get another copy. 🤣

Leftcoastzen I need to do a full but then I always think I will want it right after I cull it. 3mo
5feet.of.fury I put myself on a buying ban a couple times a year & read down. I know I have good stuff already. The reader equivalent of “we have food at home” 3mo
AmyG I am unable to get rid of any unread book. 3mo

vlwelser I also have a "secret" unread book closet. They're all books from before I moved into my house in 2018. I feel bad throwing them away even though I clearly do not need them. 3mo
slategreyskies Okay, I get this, but I‘d just like to say that having a TBR closet is right up there with other great life and reading #goals ! ❤️📚 3mo
Ruthiella Totally! I vacillate between “I must have all the books” and “I‘d like to live a minimalist lifestyle”. Like @5feet.of.fury , I periodically put myself on an input ban so as to increase the output. It‘s an imperfect system, but it‘s the best I got at the moment. 😂 3mo
merelybookish I want that closet! 3mo
kspenmoll Great closet! 3mo
kspenmoll I do cull my books because I have no room- every year my town has a huge library sale- makes me feel good to donate them there 3mo
LeahBergen I so need another good cull. 😆😆 3mo
Gissy I‘m like @AmyG I‘m not going to get rid of any unread book but I need to sell/donate exchange some books. They are read books but for various reasons I don‘t want to keep them. 3mo
mabell “Negative thinking” 🤣 3mo
batsy I'm the same with @AmyG but I do also need a thorough book cull. And soon 😬 3mo
TheLudicReader Books in all the crannies and all the nooks = paradise. 3mo
jlhammar That‘s a beautiful closet! 3mo

This year I didn‘t want to set a numerical goal on Goodreads. I couldn‘t track my reading on the phone app without a goal, so I set an arbitrary target of 12, which I reached months ago. With book clubs, ongoing series, new books I hear about along the way, and other reading challenges, I‘m already keeping track of enough. #sundayfunday

BookmarkTavern Totally fair! There are so many fun challenges and read alongs here on Litsy! Thanks for answering! 5mo

#AutumnPlease! Day 27: Nigel and the #Moon made me wonder why adults often assume that young people would only want to be one thing when they grow up. It also begs the question of how realistic should young people‘s dreams be. Maybe dreaming more than one dream is, in itself, a subversive, revolutionary act in a world that demands you to be only one thing, and never all than you can possibly be. My full review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-pCe

Eggs Agree! There are many dreams to follow 💫✨ 5mo
