Welcome to Litsy!

A fun and colourful look at organising. These girls know how to organise beautifully. I love all the rainbow colour schemes. Not sure I'm that dedicated but did find a few handy tips and storage solutions. 5*

Yesterday‘s op shop finds after work. Much less than usual which is probably a good thing. I loved SARK as a late teen. God knows where those books are. I‘ve had a life so I buy them again when I find them in the wild. The other book is to encourage my 14 year old, fishing mad nephew to read. I liked the glittery look of the scourers. Anything to help me enjoy cleaning! The bath salts, I save up for when I can next steal somebody‘s bath. Mum‘s?

I respect Reeve for his courageous battle with his spinal cord injury and the work he did to raise awareness, esp. in fighting for insurance coverage. As someone who works in physical therapy, I also enjoyed the PT aspect of his memoir. But as a whole, I just felt this was a so-so book. Short, but it jumped around a lot and didn‘t feel very cohesive.

Hardy breaks down the power of small, consistent actions and how they compound over time to create massive results. It's all about making tiny tweaks in your habits and mindset to achieve extraordinary success in every area of your life....

Here‘s my review for this book I just finished reading. I‘m counting this book for #bookspinbingo.

I started this book. So far, I can‘t relate to the stories and it‘s not resonating with me but there are some nice stories in here so I‘m going to keep going. The last section of stories was about marriage. The next section is about motherhood. I‘m a woman reading the stories but I can distance myself from the stories because they‘re not relevant to me and they‘re other people‘s stories not mine.

I was looking at the table of contents to see what kind of stories are in here that I can skip because I can‘t relate to them. It looks like a lot of stories about love, marriage, motherhood and aging. I‘m going to probably skip those stories because I might not be able to relate to them or maybe I should just read them. I‘m worried that the stories will imply that I‘m less of a woman because I don‘t want to get married or have kids.

I‘m going to start this book next. I‘ve read a few of these Chicken Soup books and I‘ve liked them. I‘m not sure if I‘m going to relate to the stories in this one but for the sections of stories I don‘t want to read, I can just skip them. I don‘t want to have to skip stories but if it‘s not relevant to me then what else am I supposed to do? I‘ll just see what happens when I start the book.

Got about halfway and had to bail. The writing style was annoying me; it‘s as if the author thinks his readers are stupid and he has to dumb everything down. Not to mention, the “ancient wisdom” the monk learns is pretty much common sense and nothing I haven‘t heard before, so I was pretty bored. Just didn‘t wanna waste anymore time on this one…

My next Kindle read 😊
