They Were Sisters | Dorothy Whipple, Celia Brayfield

Status Update Time: I had my first bingo ever since joining #BookSpinBingo! January top row. Looks like February will bring me MANY bingos 🎉
In other news, it‘s #LetterMo which means a few of you in this lovely Litsy space will be getting mail from me, I am devouring a #Persephone edition 😍 for #CC50, and I have 3 remaining TOB books yet: Subdivision, Echo Wife, and Copeland Cain. I‘m also joining in on a read of The History of Love.

AvidReader25, xicanti, Nutmegnc, thebluestocking, Ruthiella

Ruthiella Congratulations on your BINGO! 🥳🥳🥳 3y

xicanti Hurray for good books and good mail! I‘ve fallen out of the postal groove over the last year or so, but I promise I‘ll have something for you this month. 3y

Nutmegnc @BkClubCare I wondered if you were doing #lettermo!! Great bingo!! 👏👏👏 3y

BkClubCare @AvidReader25 - my review of this only tells me how much I loved it and NO plot recap so ... I can‘t remember much, which is GREAT. (edited) 3y

BkClubCare @Ruthiella - Finally! 😂 3y

BkClubCare @xicanti - let the spirit move you. Sending something today. Wonder how long it will take? 3y

BkClubCare @Nutmegnc - of course. I feel extremely disorganized but I “in”. 💌📭📬😱🤩 3y

BkClubCare @LeahBergen - she is amazing. Each character feels real and perfectly captured. 3y

Cathythoughts Loving Salinger & Moshfegh ( they could be on my list too 👍🏻 (edited) 6y

Craftylikefox Oh boy! Neil Gaiman, VE Schwab, Alice Hoffman, Tess Gerritsen, Christopher Fowler 6y

BkClubCare What a GREAT question! I am going to ask this of all my new #LetterMo penpals! I‘ll have to think a bit to answer. Ian McEwan jumped into my head but it‘s been years since I have read him 😂. Ann Patchett might be in my answer... 6y

megnews Mitch Albom, Maya Angelou, Toni Morrison, Kaye Gibbons, Lee Smith 6y

hermyknee Oh this is hard as my tastes have changed over the years. Hmmmm... I don‘t know if I can do it! I‘ll have to think about it and get back to you 😅 6y

LeahBergen Yikes! This is hard. 🤔 I feel much the same as @hermyknee ! 6y

merelybookish Hmmm, without overthinking it...Charlotte Bronte, LM Montgomery, Virginia Woolf, Kate Atkinson, Ali Smith 6y

AvidReader25 Love this question and your answers! 6y

britt_brooke @pasiphae_reads Great choices! 6y

britt_brooke @Emilymdxn Nice choices! 6y

britt_brooke @Paula3 I know, it‘s tough! 😆 6y

britt_brooke @Cathythoughts 🙌🏻🙌🏻 6y

britt_brooke @Craftylikefox Nice choices! 6y

britt_brooke @BkClubCare It really makes you think, doesn‘t it?! 6y

britt_brooke @megnews Great choices! 6y

britt_brooke @hermyknee @LeahBergen It‘s so hard to narrow it down! 6y

britt_brooke @merelybookish Excellent choices! 6y

britt_brooke @Avidreader25 Thank you! 💚 6y

kspenmoll Really tough! Have to think... 6y

Reviewsbylola Very well rounded! 6y

britt_brooke @Reviewsbylola Thank you! 6y

vivastory Did you hear that the Salinger estate is going to be publishing a bunch of books soon? 6y

britt_brooke @vivastory I did, and I‘m not sure how I feel about it honestly. I find it hard to believe that this is something he wanted (but what do I know?) What are your feelings on it? 6y

vivastory I don't think he wanted it at all & while the idea of more work is really appealing, it kind of diminishes his image. 6y

britt_brooke @vivastory I completely agree. 6y

Jee_HookedOnBookz @kaye hahaahaha yeah! I guess he got tired of receiving only bills and junk mails lol it's really a different feeling altogether when you get handwritten mails these days :) tq so much for starting this and for letting me be part of it! ❤️😘 6y

Kaye Jee, just hand him the bills and junk mail , and you keep getting the fun mail. 😁. I‘m glad you‘re having fun with it. 6y

Jee_HookedOnBookz @kaye ahahhahahaa yes Julie! I'm gonna keep doing that! I'll tell him it's Julie's order! 😁😂Yes I'm having fun with it! I can't wait to send out yours! 💃🏽💃🏽❤️😊😊 6y

Kaye Don‘t get him mad at me ! I don‘t want an angry husband showing up at my door. ( just joking 😂). 6y

Jee_HookedOnBookz @kaye ahahhahahaa!! He's quite old fashioned and he said glad to see snail mails are back😊 I told him it's probably just in the #jb group lol I do write and send out short mails/cards to my friends but it's usually one way coz they will then reply the mail via text message 😅 6y

Kaye True. I doubt very many people hand write letters any longer. When I was a kid , everyone did that but it was long before the computers, cell phones, etc were around. It was actually fun getting mail back then . 6y

Jee_HookedOnBookz @kaye yeah I remember those days when we had pen pals too! 😊 Now I get to experience it all over again thanks to you for starting #jb! Yayyyy! ❤️😘 6y

BkClubCare Wow! Are you going to do #LetterMo? 6y

Jee_HookedOnBookz @BkClubCare oh? What's #LetterMo? Haven't heard of it... 6y

BkClubCare @Jee_HookedOnBookz - a few years ago, I had a goal to write a letter every day. Then I found an online community that devoted a whole month, February, to encourage a letter every day. So, now I only do it for one month but it is a fun group. Check out www.lettermo.com It was started by author Mary Robinette Kowal 6y

Jee_HookedOnBookz @BkClubCare ohhh thank you for the info! It sounds interesting. I'll go check it out 😊 6y

BkClubCare @Jee_HookedOnBookz - if you join, look for me at Care_BooksandPie 6y

Jee_HookedOnBookz @BkClubCare oki. Doki! Thank you! 6y
