Mehso-so

I did not realise this was a series- can totally go in blind though and easily “catch up“. I was intrigued by the cover at the Lib & this is a case where maybe I could've been more discerning. I didn't really feel like the characters made life like choices, particularly Rarity. I also felt the attention to her dog was odd, out of place. Plus the narration annoyed me haha

AmyG Who needs toys when you have a box??? 8h
Andrea4 @AmyG 😂 precisely! And a spray bottle 😂 7h
dabbe @Andrea4 That you can drink out of! #priceless 🧡🍁🤎 7h
AmyG Hahahaha….I missed the spray bottle. Spot on. 3h

My copy of Little Women was the last birthday gift from my sister who passed away 8 months later.

It‘s old and fragile. Printed in Glasgow with the original owners name and address inside. 🩷

“But when the Elder appeared on the gallery he began by making straight for the common folk. The crowd was pressed against the small porchway with three steps that connected the low gallery with the field. The Elder stood on the topmost step, put on his epitrachilion1 and began to bless the women who were crowding towards him.”

Ruthiella See! And now the Fisher Price little people look reverent. They really are good actors, considering they‘re just extras. 10mo
Aimeesue @Ruthiella Hey, Susan and Betty Lou there had all that experience from starring on Sesame Street. They probably gave the others acting tips! 😄 10mo
Ruthiella But as a theater director, you also must take credit here. The casting and lighting are excellent. The dog…nice touch. Just brings in the right amount of pathos to the scene. 10mo

Amiable Love the addition of the Fisher Price people! 😄 10mo
Aimeesue @Amiable I‘m old school - they‘re my favorites 🥰 10mo
Aimeesue @dabbe It‘s definitely their groove! 10mo
dabbe @Aimeesue I can't wait to see what you come up with for the next chapter. Here's me after reading it: 😳 as in, I have no idea what I just read. 😂 10mo
Amiable @dabbe These photos should be collected into a companion booklet for readers! 😀 10mo

I surprised myself with a stop at the thrift store today and found a few well-loved copies of old Hitchcock story collections, plus a Grady Hendrix, a copy of Wolf Hall, and a novel by Argueta which will fit nicely for El Salvador in the #readingtheamericas challenge.
I‘m pretty pleased with myself- now to find space for them on the crammed shelves.

dabbe I subscribe to the digital magazine, but nothing beats those! #priceless 2y
psalva @dabbe I definitely enjoy the magazine from time to time, though I don‘t subscribe. I didn‘t realize they had a digital subscription- might be the way to go if I ever do get a subscription, just to save a little space. 2y
dabbe @psalva Agreed. It all gets to be a bit much, doesn't it? There also is a digital subscription to the Ellery Queen magazine, which sometimes I liked even better. 2y

We ( me & my granddaughter Sofia) have been reading the tagged book ... so will continue with that 👍💕

Also , listening to Love Songs on my walk , but I‘m thinking of getting the print copy as I imagine it would be a lovely read.

Happy reading friends out there 😘
Hi Cindy 😘
( recognise the bookmark @TrishB 😉😘)

Cinfhen I love that you and Sofia are buddyreading 💕💕💕 3y
TrishB That‘s lovely ♥️ (book, book mark and reading together!) 3y
Cathythoughts @Cinfhen @Trishb the puppies are taken to Suffolk ! Sofia said : ‘ Granny you just said a bad word ‘ ( she wouldn‘t be familiar with place names like Suffolk ) so every time it comes up now we are in stitches 😂 8 year old humour 3y

TrishB Oh I love that 😁♥️ those moments are so cute! 3y
TheAromaofBooks This is one of my all-time favorites. If you can find an edition with illustrations by Janet and Anne Grahame-Johnstone, it is well worth looking up. They did the original drawings and they are just delightful!! 3y
Megabooks Hi Cathy!! 👋🏻 Glad you‘re enjoying reading with your granddaughter! 💜 3y
Cathythoughts @TheAromaofBooks Sounds good , Thankyou. We are reading this for a long time … so I‘ll look that up. 3y
Cathythoughts @Megabooks Thanks Meg ! Lovely to hear from you. Hi 👋 I hope we will reconnect over books in the new year , always so lovely( and educational ) to hang out with you on Litsy 😘 3y
LeahBergen Oh, how lovely to be reading with Sofia! 💗💗 And I like your “bad word”. 🤣 3y
EvieBee What a great edition! 3y

⭐️⭐️⭐️ I expected this to be pure brain candy, and it often is, but damn, it‘s juicier than a 2000s Playmate in a velour track suit! True to “reality” tv, things are not always how they appear. The girlfriend politics were particularly fascinating. What a bizarre life choice! Holly does not sugarcoat, but of course, this is all through her eyes. Take it as you will. An entertaining memoir for those who vegged on Girls Next Door like I did.

Megabooks 💯 agree with this review! The girlfriend politics were absolutely fascinating. And Hef‘s manipulation, too. 3y
britt_brooke @Megabooks He was a piece of …. work. 3y
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick "Juicier than a 2000s Playmate in a velour track suit" might be the greatest analogy I've heard this year! ? 3y

Cinfhen I REALLY like gossipy tales but I‘m not that interested in Holly & Hef & the other ladies 🤷🏼‍♀️I‘m glad you and @Megabooks enjoyed!! 3y

Laughed so loud on the chapter titled Awkwarding / Jenny reads awkward moments people shared with her via Twitter #Priceless sharing a few: “Ate a cookie on display at Anthropologie. Halfway through, I realized it was a decorative soap.” “Nanny job interview, told job would involve light housekeeping. Replied: I‘ve never kept a lighthouse before but willing to try.” “I pulled out a panty liner instead of a $5 bill to pay for my lunch.”

Freespirit Some of those soaps in the shape of food look delicious 😊 4y
Centique Oh god, that last one made me laugh out loud 😂😂😂 4y
Cinfhen Hahahaha #TRUTH @Freespirit I know @Centique just re-reading again made me laugh 😆 4y

Soubhiville I was wiping tears of laughter away so I could keep reading that section. I could absolutely identify with some of those! 4y
Cinfhen I know @Soubhiville although I will say this book felt much “darker” than her other two😔 4y
Soubhiville It definitely did feel darker. 4y
britt_brooke Did you catch the @Liberty tweet she mentioned? It was about the Man Booker Prize. I died. 4y
Cinfhen Oh, I did remember that tweet but I wasn‘t paying attention to the person @britt_brooke was It Liberty‘s tweet?!?? That was the one in the bookshop?? 4y
britt_brooke @Cinfhen Yep! 🤩 4y
