Into the Planet: My Life as a Cave Diver | Jill Heinerth

pick

#AugustRush #20in4

Whew! Just finished my #TitlesAndTunes #August pick for #TheWorldIsMyOyster & really enjoyed in—although it certainly made my claustrophobia spike with the author‘s descriptions of the dangerous places she explored as a cave diver. I alternated between the e-book & audiobook & especially enjoyed hearing the author reading her own words. There were a couple of draggy parts but overall this was an interesting & engaging read.👍👍

Cinfhen Fantastic!! I have the audio so glad to hear it‘s a pick 🩵 8mo

BarbaraBB Cave diving… I am so fascinated by it because it seems one of the most scary things to do! 8mo

Andrew65 Excellent 👏👏👏 (edited) 8mo

DieAReader 🥳🥳🥳 8mo

JamieArc I really liked this one too. It was one of my favorites of 2022. 8mo

I didn‘t manage to read the four books I planned on reading during #20in4 but I did read four books. I‘ll call that a win! Thanks for hosting @Andrew65

I‘m hoping to finish strong for #AugustRush as well!

#AugustRush Day 7

A very stormy day today which luckily didn‘t result in any damage and only a quick power outage.

📚Listened to an hour or so of The Jaguar Smile #AuthorAMonth #ReadingTheAmericas2023
📚Read about 30 pages of High by Erica Fatland
📚Read my chapters for #PemberLittens HashtagBrigade

Very distracted today by work and weather and tired after my Kitty decided to wake me up at 3:45. I did manage to finally set up my BookspinBingo.

On day two of #AugustRush I got in plenty of reading time. I had a few hours in the morning while the family slept and then a few more hours by the lake. This is what vacation should be like, not all the rushing around we have been doing!
📚Kept up with Vanity Fair for #pemberlittens
📚Finished The Secret Place for last month‘s #BacklistReadathon
📚At 68% in By Book or By Crook for my work book club
Today might not be as productive as I overslept

Andrew65 Sounds an excellent day 👏👏👏 9mo

Bookwormjillk @CatLass007 Daisy is the tabby and Oliver is the tuxedo. This was a few years ago- came up in my memories today 9mo

CatLass007 Awww. Daisy looks like she was still a kitten then. 9mo

dabbe Hello, Darling Daisy and Outstanding Oliver! 🖤🐾🐾🖤 9mo

Bookwormjillk @CatLass007 they both were- born about 2 weeks apart. They wouldn‘t both fit now 🤣 9mo

Bookwormjillk @dabbe 🩷 9mo

CatLass007 When Mom was alive Molly, Tiberius, and Anjali all sat on her lap at the same time. Benjamin has always been too mellow to make himself fit, so he‘s my cuddle bug. Even in the 90+ heat. 9mo

Dog Days of August | G F Gorman

Well, friends, it's that time of month again - the time of month when you realize life is racing by at a terrifying pace! 😂 August is less than a week away, so it's time to think about your #BookSpin/#BookSpinBingo lists if you haven't already!! I know some of you have already posted, so when you get this tag, you can just take a moment to bask in that feeling of being ahead of the curve! 😆
⬇⬇ ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) July has been a weirdly emotional month here, and I actually haven't gotten a lot of reading in. Hoping that will change for August, but since orchard season is starting, I doubt that reading time is going to increase much LOL

Can't wait to see everyone's lists!! I'll be back on the 2nd with August's numbers and bingo board. As always, if you have questions about the challenge, or need the link to the giveaway form ⬇ ⬇ ⬇ 9mo

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) it can all be found here - https://thearomaofbooks.wordpress.com/bookspin-bookspinbingo-litsy-challenge/

Happy reading, everyone!!! ❤ ❤ ❤ 9mo

RaeLovesToRead Time is FLYING!!!! 😵😵😵 9mo

BarkingMadRead Omg how is it time already?!? 9mo

julieclair I was just thinking it was time to start working on my list! But I have too many July books left to finish…. 9mo

SpookyMazeOfBooks I'm back in 9mo

candc320 Ahhhh, this month went by too fast 🫢!! 9mo

IamIamIam Wow wow WOW!!!! That went so fast!!!! 9mo

ElizaMarie I didn‘t finish my #BookSpin and didn‘t even start the #DoubleSpin this month went by so quickly 9mo

Eggs 🩷💕🩷 9mo

Pigpen_Reads 😊 9mo

BarbaraJean I can‘t believe it, but I‘ve actually finished ALL my BookSpin/DoubleSpin books so far this year. Now I‘ll have jinxed it by saying that…😆 I‘ll have to put the finishing touches on my August list and hope I can continue my reading streak! 9mo

Bookwormjillk I think I have my list almost ready, but need to let it marinate a bit. I'll be combining #BookSpinBINGO and the #AugustRush readathin from @andrew65

Will August be the month when I finally meet my goals? It's got to happen some time! 9mo

wisherwishinguponastar @BarbaraJean That‘s awesome! You got this! 9mo

AkashaVampie 🤓📚 I just finished my 39th book of the year. If this was any other year, I'd be only somewhere between 7 and 14 books read. #BookSpin has really helped me and of course audiobooks. 9mo

TheSpineView Hoping August is a great reading month! 💙📖💙📚💙 9mo

BookishMadHatter So crazy how some days it feels like 3 days in one but then all of a sudden we're facing the end of another month. 9mo

willaful Honestly, after the five years of 2020, I appreciate time speeding up again. 9mo

Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick Jeez Louise! I can't believe it's almost August! I didn't read a lot from my list for July, so I can make it easy on myself and just reuse the list and replace the few I've read. I probably won't make the graphic and post until the night before you pull numbers, but I'm glad it's mostly sorted out in my head. 🤣 9mo

PuddleJumper I have not read anything this month! Might skip August since I don't think that will be any better 9mo

Librarybelle Hooray!! 9mo

Grrlbrarian I‘m in - but not ahead of the curve 😂 9mo

Bookgoil I need to work on this 😅 9mo

bnp Well, I haven't touched one, but I hope to finish the other by Monday. Well see what August brings. 9mo

DieAReader So ready for this!!! 9mo

claudiuo Been heads down in work for a bit and when I come for air it's almost August: unbelievable! I'll work on my list soon. 9mo

Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking | Malcolm Gladwell

pick

#accountabilitypost. This is me attempting to read at least 10 of these titles in one month before I go back to work. 😅All of these are pretty short—200-350 pages. Can I do it? Probably not. But I‘m certainly going to try. Tell me what to read next! I‘m halfway through Blink by Malcolm Gladwell now. #augustrush #readingchallenge 📚📚✅🏁
