Welcome to Litsy!

On my recent trip, I stayed at a friend‘s cousin‘s apartment—and I immediately told my friend that her cousin has great taste in books! This is just a sampling of the shelves—including Madeleine L‘Engle, Ursula K. LeGuin, N.K. Jemisin, Barbara Kingsolver, Mary Oliver, Louise Gluck, John Steinbeck… and so many more! It was a delight to see such a collection of friendly faces on someone else‘s shelves.

I just reminded I have these two books about birds, both in catalan... on my #tbr session!

I‘m not really the type to rhapsodize my job, but this is nice!
The book is cute, though it loses me a bit when it gets into writing, but then I‘m not a writer.

Bath & Body Works has a bookish candle called Book Loft! I didnt light it yet, but it smells amazing in the jar! Their description of the scent says:
What it smells like: cozying up with a book you can't put down.
Fragrances notes: crisp bergamot, neroli and cozy woods.

Here‘s my #bookspin list. I‘m finding setting it up like this vs actual titles works better for me since I‘m such a mood reader! Looking forward to a new year of reading!!📚📖 @TheAromaofBooks

I‘m planning on doing 24 bookish adventures for 2024! I‘d love to have you join me. All the details here: https://charityrau.wordpress.com/2024/01/02/24-bookish-adventures-in-2024/ #24bookishadventuresin24 #readingchallenge

Oh @JamieArc - thank you for this incredibly thoughtful and lovely gift!! I wish the picture did it more justice (stuck in my gift-wrapping cave, which explains both the lighting and the lateness!), but the paper and card were so special and the book is just perfection. And local mint chocolates 😍, and I gasped when I saw the caramels, which appear to be from a shop in the small-town WI area where I grew up! 😮🥰 Merry Christmas!! ❤️

My wife got me new bookshelves as an early birthday present!😁🤓📚
