Welcome to Litsy!

Friday night‘s #bookandbrew. 😍

The legislative session ends tomorrow and I am SO EXCITED. My reading time has been significantly less since we started in January. I‘ll be transitioning into campaign mode soon, but I‘m hoping I‘ll have a few weeks of down(ish) time first! 😂 Guess I‘m #wishfuldrinking!!

God, she was something special, wasn‘t she? I don‘t know what else can be said, except to say that I don‘t think anyone could regret picking up this little book - especially if they‘ve ever personally dealt with mental illness. She‘s got a way of making you feel so not alone, and her irreverent, sardonic sense of humor makes it not so scary. The world is darker for her absence, but what a legacy she left behind. #wishfuldrinking #carriefisher

I‘ve been listening to the audiobook, and hearing Carrie tell her own story has been wonderful (although so sad, too), but I‘m in the mood to read it, see the words in front of me. So here we go. #wishfuldrinking #carriefisher

I came home from work early today because I just wasn‘t feeling well, and so I‘ve been asleep since 10:30. I don‘t feel much like holding a book open, either, so...time for some time with Carrie. I‘m loving it already. #wishfuldrinking #carriefisher #audible #audiobook

Well, it happened. I finally caved and subscribed to Audible. To no one‘s surprise, this was one of my first purchases. 💖 #wishfuldrinking #carriefisher #forevermyprincess

When I think of #ManicMonday for #AwesomeAutumnBooks I think of the late, great #CarrieFisher, her books about #manicdepression and all of the awareness she brought to the area of #mentalhealth. Her books are well written, humorous and honest. She worked tirelessly to reduce the stima surrounding #mentalhealthconditions. I loved both #WishfulDrinking and #Shockaholic. #ThePrincessDiarist and #PostcardsFromTheEdge are on my #TBR #FemaleHeroes
