The read on the left - and the Shakespeare & Co bookmark - are lagniappe from the kind @JulietteGF Can‘t wait to dig in to these beauties. Thanks, ladies! 😘

monalyisha 🙌🏻! So happy they reached you (even if it was in a roundabout way)! Thanks again, @JulietteGF for resending! @Grrlbrarian let me know when you‘re thinking of reading this (it‘d probably have to be this month or in September, given that I‘m participating in #MakeMeReadIt in August). @JulietteGF if you have any interest in joining us for the #buddyread, just say the word! 6y

Grrlbrarian I can read it anytime you wish, @monalyisha 👍 Just let me know which works best for you. (edited) 6y

monalyisha @Grrlbrarian Let‘s do September! I‘ve never done an official #buddyread before. Do we just read it at our own pace or are there like, page assignments or something? Haha. It‘s a mystery to me! 6y

#LilNugGiveaway & #ShortStorySwap gifts both went out today!

Blue skies & snail mail... if you ask me, those are the makings of a pretty great day. 💞📬🌤

Now, hopefully they went to the right recipients or it‘ll be a whole new kinda swap.🙈 (I‘m embarrassingly scattered today. Gotta get more sleep tonight! Bad job, me!)

Grrlbrarian, CSeydel

Grrlbrarian Awwwww yisssss! Thanks for your generosity! 7y

monalyisha @Grrlbrarian @JulietteGF How‘s the swap going? Anyone need postage via Venmo? Have either of you received the packages meant for you yet? 6y

Adventures_of_a_French_Reader @monalyisha @Grrlbrarian Everything is fine. I received the swap, and I sent the package yesterday. It should arrive on Saturday ;) No postage needed. 6y

monalyisha Thanks @JulietteGF! Hope you enjoy the goods after all this. 😉 6y

Grrlbrarian Hey @monalyisha! No postage needed 😊 Looking forward to my Saturday surprise! Thanks both to you and @JulietteGF 6y

A Dead Djinn in Cairo: A Tor.Com Original | P. Djeli Clark

Thanks to everyone who entered my #LiLNugGiveaway!

It was a tough call, but Moxie & I went with @Grrlbrarian & her recommendation of the tagged novella, “A Dead Djinn in Cairo.” Three phrases cinched the deal: “alchemy”, “enchantments”, & “supernatural entities.” SOLD.

@Grrlbrarian The book I‘ve chosen from your TBR is one I‘ve been meaning to read, too! We should try to get our ish together & read it at the same time! 😉

Congrats! 🎉

Trashcanman Congratulations! Woot woot! 7y

monalyisha @Grrlbrarian I‘ll tag you when your prize goes out, which I imagine will be within the week. 🤗📬 Oh! And I always almost forget this part: email me with your address. 😅 monalyisha@gmail.com (edited) 7y

VioletBramble Beautiful bunny 7y

Grrlbrarian Yay! Thank you SO much! I appreciate your kindness. Sure, I would love to buddy read it with you! 👌 7y

I usually don‘t enter giveaways, but why not 🤷🏻‍♀️. One of my favorite novellas is Shopgirl by Steve Martin. One of the few books I‘ve read more than once.

Thanks for doing this #lilnuggiveaway @monalyisha !

CSeydel Loved Shopgirl 7y

monalyisha Thanks for entering! I‘ve never read any of his writing before but I do love Steve Martin. I recently watched his episode of “Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee.” 🤗 7y

AmyG I especially love the movie. One of my favorites. (edited) 7y

Whodunit85 About reposting - I'm new! I've just been screenshotting and using the captured image. Is that the best way? Or is there a repost option I'm not seeing? 7y

Zelma @Whodunit you are doing it correctly. There is no way to just share or repost here. And with screenshots, you can always edit the image. 7y

Whodunit85 @Zelma Thank you! 7y

monalyisha @Whodunit : @Zelma‘s right! Screenshots work! If you‘re ever neurotically concerned with maintaining the integrity of the posted image (as I often am 😅), @MeganAnn showed me another way. If you click the little arrow at the bottom of the post & save to notes, you can then go into the notes app on your phone & save the original image. Then, you can go into your photos & use that image when posting. Have fun! Hope you‘re enjoying the community! 🤗 (edited) 7y
