I‘m a mood reader but can‘t believe I stayed on theme for the entire month! My issue is I stacked my Oct TBR all year and need an additional couple months to flatten said TBR so I‘ll just redate tomorrow to Oct 32!

September was all about reading books on my TBR that might not fit my seasonal reading moods for the remainder of the year. I think I did okay! #MonthlyWrapUp #IndexCard

marleed @BookmarkTavern @bookandbedandtea @Ruthiella @AnnCrystal @dabbe @CoverToCoverGirl Oh thank you! The front sides are fun to do. I jot down my star rating for the books on the back lined pages. I don‘t write down my feelings about the book though. Instead I use the lines to write plot points and spoilers that will jog my feeble memory when trying to recall just what was in the books I read 🤪 2mo
AnnCrystal @marleed that\'s brilliant 📚🎨😎👍💝. 2mo

For the most part this month I selected books based on cover art providing me a summer feel. I‘m a mood reader, and as September settles in my reading plans take a drastic turn. No telling if these books would have made it off my 2025 TBR so I feel good about this wrap up! #indexcard

Another month of reading logged into my #indexcard files. I think I‘m gonna need a bigger 🗃️!

Ruthiella Stunning! 🤩 4mo
AnnCrystal 👏😍🥳👍💝. 4mo
marleed @Ruthiella @AnnCrystal Thank you - it really is the response to this post that allows me to keep up and not give up with these cards. It‘s funny how a few written spoilers and my very subjective rating help to pull the reading experience back from the deep cavernous tunnels of my brain 🧠 4mo

dabbe The highlight of my month! 🤩🤩🤩 4mo
AnnCrystal @marleed 👏these are wonderful 🤩👍. I love reading each card 👏💝. (edited) 4mo
Ruthiella Writing brief reviews of everything I read on Goodreads definitely helps me better remember! 👍 4mo
peanutnine I love that you included the little drip on 4mo
marleed @dabbe @AnnCrystal @Ruthiella @peanutnine Thank you! There is definitely a deeper memory trigger for me when I read my own writing about something. …And you caught the pink paint drip 😁😁 4mo

Halfway through the year and I‘ve been captivated by so many books - both the treasures quietly resting on my shelves awaiting my recognition of their brilliance and the bright shiny books dazzling me every Tuesday on publication day. Just how do authors manage to write so many good and new stories!?

Well, I‘m minutes away from hosting my 10 month-old grandson for the next 4 days and 3 nights - by myself! And some of that daytime will also include his first cousin and my 22 month-old grandson. 3 year-old twins will be in Branson, MO and - goodness I love them- told there parents‘ they‘d rather stay with me! ….I think it‘s safe to lock in my #indexcard collection for May!

marleed @TheBookgeekFrau @LiteraryinLawrence @dabbe @UwannaPublishme @lil1inblue @bthegood @BookmarkTavern @CoverToCoverGirl Thanks everyone! And we survived 4 days and 3 overnights. We‘ll see if I did enough to convince Sparky I‘m his favorite person in the world. Sparks is 1 year younger and 5 pounds heavier than the grandson I watch Mon-Thurs. Holy cow, does my back ever recognize that difference! I‘ll be crawling to bed now 🛌🥱 6mo
TheBookgeekFrau @marleed Of course you're his favorite person in the world! Sleep well, being the favorite is damn hard work 😁💕 6mo

It‘s April and once again my tax bill was significant. So this #IndexCard display represents in part a game I play …. In my head I subtract $15 from my tax bill for each new release I‘m able to nab from the library. This month I subtracted $225 - not bad, but I have a long way to go 🤪

slategreyskies I‘ve seen that some libraries will keep a running tally for you and print it out on your checkout receipts. It‘ll say something like, “So far this year, you‘ve saved $435 by using your local library.” I think that‘s a really good idea, and I wish my library did that. I‘d find it fascinating to see my tally go up over the course of the year. 7mo
marleed @slategreyskies oh my gosh, that‘s a great idea! A few years ago I received a breakdown that showed how much of my state taxes went to support the public library. I thought it was fascinating and realized at the very least we should all read enough library book to match those amounts. 7mo
bookandbedandtea I love your monthly wrap ups! 🤩 7mo

It‘s a wrap on February 2024 and most of these books were pulled from my physical shelves.

….My read & unread books are mixed together on my shelves with a translucent paragraph tab on the spine of unread books. It feels good to finally pull more tabs than I add in a given month. If I plan to donate the book, I'll turn the spine out on my shelves.

jlhammar Wow, another amazing month! Love how your Covenant of Water card turned out. I‘m just finishing up Neighbors, been reading a story or two each day - really good. 9mo

marleed @jlhammar @Cuilin @dabbe @BookmarkTavern Oh thank you! I have as much fun submitting this post as I do making the cards. Honestly I may have given up the effort if it weren‘t for the wonderful Litten comments! 9mo

My first stack for the 2024 #indexcard collection is complete! Nice that I have this representation because many were a result of shuffling Libby holds. I wanted to work down that virtual stack since much of Feb will be looking at my physical shelves. #MonthlyWrapUp January 2024

marleed @SamAnne Even though I had a December head start with Demon and Jan lasted 529 days in my neck of the woods, my books consist of physical, ebook, and audio. I live on my own these days and watch little TV, so if my eyes aren‘t landing on words, I‘m likely listening to an audiobook. I often do both, simultaneously! 10mo
