Welcome to Litsy!

I #cherish my cats, naturally. We‘re all a little spooked this morning - the massive storms caused a roof leak right over my bed. Thankfully, it was a very slow drip, and it seems the worst part in the interior of my house is a couple water stains on my ceiling. But, I‘ll have to investigate the roof in the daytime. #Movember

Oh, Don Quixote! You‘re on my to read list, along with so many other #chunkster classics! I do know of his reputation...tilting at windmills, thinking he is a knight, etc. #TheSwordFight #SoaringScores

#SebastianKitty wanted in the photo too! #catsoflitsy

I don‘t think my idea of funny meshes well with Inman‘s idea of funny. Parts of this I did laugh out loud - as a cat owner, I could totally relate to some of the pieces. A quick read with some hidden gems. My cats would certainly agree that they are the best, as they joined me while I read this one. #Zeke #Vladimir #SebastianKitty #catsoflitsy

I was going to post an image of a #blanket with a book I‘m currently reading, but then #SebastianKitty jumped onto my lap. My cats behave like blankets at times - keeping me warm while I read or watch TV. Plus, they‘re so adorable! #catsoflitsy #FallIsBooked

Thank you for the tag, @kspenmoll !

1. If you follow me on IG, this may look familiar... #SebastianKitty resting on my legs. #catsoflitsy
2. Read! I may also watch a movie, depending upon my mood. If it‘s a terrible rainstorm, I usually have a strong headache, so napping also happens.
3. Not anything at the moment - my kind of weekend!
4. Wish to play? Please jump in! #WondrousWednesday

My #ReadingGoals for September are to read more books related to my challenges. In addition, #agathachristieclubr2 is starting this month, and I‘ll have a #LiteraryCrew #buddyread starting later this month. And, I hope to join the #botmbuddyread this month, as I‘ve wanted to read Evelyn Hugo. Will I stick to the plan? Probably not. #SebastianKitty is skeptical about it. He‘s also upset he can‘t lay on my papers. #SelfImprovementSept #catsoflitsy

Hands down, these boys have #allofmyheart ! I‘ve used this PicCollage image before, but it‘s a favorite of mine. I‘m also on vacation at my yearly trek to New York‘s Finger Lakes region, so I‘m missing these guys like crazy. To tie this into books, they are the best reading buddies...they love when I sit down to read. I am usually holding at least one of them. Top photo: #SebastianKitty .

It‘s quite obvious my favorite #animal is a cat. My first word, other than Dad and Mom, was kitty!

My favorite escape type books are cozy mysteries. Many cozies tend to feature cats, as either part of the detecting team, or the amateur sleuth adopts one. Here‘s a newish one - set in a cat cafe! I know absolutely nothing about it, other than I had to buy it. #SebastianKitty is a reluctant model. #ayupaugust #catsoflitsy

Reading this fascinating book about the bubonic plague in the US at the turn of the 20th century, and of course accompanied by #SebastianKitty and #Zeke . #catsoflitsy

My parents brought over a stand no longer in use at their house...let‘s just say my library shelves are filling up, and I have so much more to put away. But, I‘m building a collection of all Christie‘s books and thought having a special place for them was in order. Hence the stand. I also have ARCs on the stand I really need to review...yikes! Naturally, Vladimir and Sebastian has to check it out. #catsoflitsy #Vladimir #SebastianKitty
