I did not realize how very timely this banned book journal would end up being. I thought I would share with the #withthebanned crew in case they wanted to track their reading. It contains a bunch of information on book bans and how to fight them.

The author owns Bettie's Pages, a bookstore in Lowell, MI. I try to support the store with online orders because a bookstore like hers is much needed in that area of the state.

CatLass007 Thank you! Preventing book banning is a hill that I am willing to die on. The more I learn the more I can do in my own small way. 1w

Amiable Excellent, thank you! And totally agree about supporting Bettie‘s … my husband and I lived in East Lansing for a few years when I was in grad school at Michigan State! You aren‘t kidding about that part of the state. (edited) 7d

I also updated my world map for the end of the year. These are all the countries I‘ve visited through books in 2024. I‘m trying to get better at geography - hopefully I‘ve colored all the correct places! 😅

This is a nice reading journal, but I never used it, so I took it to the LFL along with another offloaded book and an extra 2025 planner I somehow acquired.

I missed my chance to donate the rest of the magazines in my free cycle group, so I‘ll just keep chipping away at the pile when the mood strikes me. It didn‘t strike me in December! No worries, though, because the pile is much smaller than when I started.

julieclair I bet someone is going to be thrilled to discover the book journal in the LFL! 😃 And you‘re in good company with the December magazines. I don‘t think the mood struck any of us. 😎 But hooray that your stacks have shrunk over the past year! 👏 3mo

So I‘ve been keeping a log of what I have read since 1986. Just dates, titles , authors. No reviews , just noting rereads. What a long strange trip it‘s been.

tpixie That‘s awesome 🤩 4mo
dabbe 🤩🤩🤩 4mo
AmyG I have a list since 5/10/74. Isn‘t it wild when you go back to read it….see what you were reading back in the day? 4mo

Suet624 I was just updating my latest journal. Nothing glamorous but packed full of quotes since at least 2002. I moved so much before that time that I think I‘ve lost my earliest ones from the 70s. It‘s a treasure to have them. 4mo
AnnCrystal That's awesome, just began mine in 2023. 📚📔💝. 4mo
Hooked_on_books Mine goes back to the 80s as well, but I don‘t know the date, as I initially didn‘t track that. For years I had a 3 ring binder and loose leaf, as I tracked by author‘s last name and that way I could add pages wherever needed. I would take it with me to the used bookstore to make sure I didn‘t buy any I‘d already read. 😉 4mo
sisilia Wow this is wonderful 😍 4mo
Leftcoastzen @Suet624 I wish I had earlier ones , I used to think I would always remember! ha ha ha! 4mo
Leftcoastzen @AmyG wow ! I had better taste back then I think. I shunned popular stuff . 4mo
Leftcoastzen @Hooked_on_books good old system. I‘m keeping it up despite computerized ways to keep track. 4mo
AmyG Ha! I have better taste now. I read alot of garbage. 🤣 4mo

Since son is off to his first year in college, it‘s time to scrapbook first grade (I‘m a bit behind. But the nostalgia is worth the wait.). Anyway, here‘s my first grader reading Harry Potter. I don‘t know which book he‘s reading here, but he started the series before kindergarten started. And don‘t you just love the scrapbooking paper?

marleed Oh that‘s so sweet. Your son will love reviewing his new scrapbook of memories when he comes back home!🏠 (edited) 7mo

There‘s a guy that works in the lab where I work, and I‘ve always thought he looks like Stephen King. You can‘t tell as much in this photo, but he really looks like he could be a brother to him. I‘ve never talked to him before, but he always has a book with him (another point!); he‘s reading the Harry Potter series right now. Yes. I always try to see what book he has👀📚
