From Sea to Shining Sea: A Treasury of American Folklore and Folk Songs | Amy Cohn

#seatosea #moosemoose What do you ladies think of merging the two #LMPBC clubs? @Andrea4 @FantasyChick @Jabberwocky @tournevis @dixi_e Interested?

tournevis I have not thought about it. 5y

tournevis Everyone would need to agree, right? 5y

BookishTrish Everyone would need to agree! No pressure intended. Vanessa and I are in both clubs and have a sneaking suspicion that we‘ve lost @dixi_e and @Jabberwocky for the next round at least. (edited) 5y

dixi_e So sorry. I was indeed MIA. 5y

Sorry, @BookishTrish this came on Friday and I didnt get a chance to post! I love it all including the creepy whale pencil! Lol
The frenchie is up on my fridge now. You're kindness really touched me, thank you, my friend!

And yes, I want to get #seatosea going again!!!
Although I do need to read about Lillian still lol.

@FantasyChick @Jabberwocky

BookishTrish Glad you liked it ❤️❤️❤️ 5y

FantasyChick I think Lillian is out on a really, really looooong walk this time. Once we get some things sorted out, I can't wait to get another round started though! 5y

Andrea4 @FantasyChick 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 poor Lillian, did she get lost? LMAO 5y

FantasyChick Well, she is pretty old 😂😂 5y

Andrea4 @FantasyChick I was gonna make a senile joke but thought that might be mean 😂😂😂😂 5y

What a journey! The last #seatosea pick has arrived along with my #N4C box of goodies @FantasyChick there‘s a Jason stocking in the box!?!?! ❤️❤️❤️ I haven‘t opened anything yet, but I‘m super excited! Thank you!

FantasyChick Yay! I'm happy you FINALLY have the books (stupid CP strike). I probably should have wrapped everything in the box but I wanted to make sure it got there in time. There's a story behind the sad creation of the stocking lol but I hope you enjoy everything! I had so much fun picking things 🤗 5y

Andrea4 I honestly dont even know who is supposed to be sending me the final reads... 5y

BookishTrish @andrea4 Maybe email Ariel? She hasn‘t been on Litsy much since she started school. 5y

Andrea4 @BookishTrish thanks!!! Yea I havent been on much since my life kinda went upside down 🙃😜 5y

BookishTrish @andrea4 upside down?!? Hope all is settling down and you‘re entering a calmer time. Hugs. 5y

Andrea4 @BookishTrish I am getting separated. So I moved out. Things have settled, fortunately as the holidays are not great for extra turbulence. Thank you for the hugs! I will take them!! 5y

Third Strike | Heather Brewer

Thank you CP for finally getting my package so close to me only to turn around and send it BACK to Ottawa! 🤬 My #sss books also haven't been scanned in 2 weeks @Avanders. If I don't get an update in the next day or so, I'll ship without the books and send them when they show up. This strike is a bloody nightmare.
@BookishTrish No update on #seatosea books I sent either. Probably on one of 8000 trucks holed up in Ont. Just an update for everyone!

Melissa_J I‘m sending your Christmas package via UPS or FedEx. 5y

FantasyChick @Melissa_J Unless there's a miracle in the next couple weeks, I'm thinking of doing the same. Now I'm just worried about the stuff I've already ordered making it on time. So much for saving money on Black Friday....the savings will go towards not shipping Canada Post lol 5y

LeahBergen It‘s driving me crazy! 😠😠 5y

Melissa_J I got excited because the news said CP wanted to put strike on hold until new year, but the union turned it down 😫 I‘ve got Christmas gifts being shipped and hope they arrive on time @LeahBergen 5y

JoScho How frustrating! 5y

FantasyChick @LeahBergen Right? Im going nuts. I always do 90% of my shopping online and this close to xmas is really starting to worry me. Especially for anything I have to personally ship. There needs to be an agreement soon! @Melissa_J I'm hoping the same thing! The backlog alone will take forever to deal with. Half of your gift just went back to Ottawa for no reason, lol. I think the union figures they have the power this time of year 😡 5y

FantasyChick @JoScho you have no idea! It's gone on way too long 5y

BooksBikes12 @FantasyChick Hope my package gets to you...Hate to ruin the surprise. It was for the Horror goes postal swap. its coming from the States. Hope you get it soon... 5y

FantasyChick @BooksBikes12 Yay! I just got it. Happy it made it through 😊 Thank you so much. I can't wait! 5y

BooksBikes12 @FantasyChick Sorry, not the horror swap..its the # N4C swap...Oops my bad. 5y

so-so

I read this book ridiculously quick and didn't like it at all. Then, I drank a bottle of wine and a lightbulb went off! This is still the most messed up book I have read (and I read some messed up shit) but I think drunk me understands it a bit more. Drunk me also wrote thoughts in the book @BookishTrish You're welcome AND I'm sorry 😂 but she apparently has more interesting and valid points!
#seatosea @Andrea4 @Jabberwocky

Andrea4 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 5y

Samplergal 😂😂😂 5y

BookishTrish 😂😂😂 Oh I‘m looking forward to it coming home now! 5y

Postman Pat Has Too Many Parcels | John Cunliffe, Stuart Trotter

@Jabberwocky @danibolahood @kaysworld1 there are parcels heading your way. Kay, it‘s my first time sending to the UK and I couldn‘t afford tracking. Please let me know when it arrives 💕 #seatosea #screamsbymail #TeamHellboundHeart

BookishTrish @Jabberwocky @danibolahood @kaysworld1 Have any of the parcels arrived yet? 6y

danibolahood Just picked mine up an hour ago! I think it was waiting for me for awhile though because I never received the first notice that it was there and got the tersely worded "were sending this back if you don't get your butt down here" reminder notice yesterday. 6y

kaysworld1 @BookishTrish Nope nothing yet, sorry 6y

FINALLY DONE @Jabberwocky @BookishTrish @FantasyChick so I can finally say goodbye and ship this off for #LMPBC #seatosea which ia great b/c honestly I have no idea what I just read and don't care to sift through all the carcasses to figure it out!! The characters were odd, underdevelopd or inconsistent, the magical realism felt awkward and served what purpose I'm unsure. I would have bailed but bookclub meant I stuck it out till the bloody end!

BookishTrish @Andrea4 Please know you can always bail on one of my picks and I‘ll never mind 💕 6y

Andrea4 @BookishTrish oh, I figure but I just thought maybe at the end it was all going to come together for me and then I'd be like ok, needs work but I get it now. Unfotunately it just kept unravelling for me. 6y

FantasyChick Eeeek! Never feel bad if you cant finish!! Here's hoping you enjoy the next book more 😘 6y

BookishTrish It was just shortlisted for the Rogers Trust award https://quillandquire.com/omni/edugyan-hage-among-rogers-writers-trust-fiction-f... 6y
