Hello #Pemberlittens friends! I‘ve made the difficult decision to end our #JaneAdjacent buddy reads starting in May. Or at least to end my role in hosting them. I‘ve found recently that I‘ve overcommitted myself on Litsy and in real life and I need to step back. I‘ve so enjoyed our discussions and the books we‘ve chosen that have brought us back into Jane‘s world. If anyone is interested in taking up the mantle, you have my blessing!

mcctrish It‘s so easy to do. I‘m so sad but I‘m so happy I got to hang out with you for a brief while 2d

BarkingMadRead Awwwww that‘s a bummer, but I totally get it! If I wasn‘t already hosting a couple others I would take it over! 2d
Sace While I was not part of the reading I totally understand the Litsy overwhelm! There are so many fabulous activities here and it‘s hard not to overdo. 2d
Librarybelle Thank you for hosting this! I completely understand - I can barely keep up with all of the activities I‘m hosting and participating in. It‘s been a lot of fun. ❤️ 2d

willaful It's been really fun! I hope you can find more balance in your life; it's so easy to take on too much here! 2d

rubyslippersreads I‘m sad it‘s ending, but happy that I‘ve learned of so many wonderful #janeadjacent books. Thanks for being such a great host. ❤️ 2d
julieclair This has been a wonderful ride and I will miss it. But I totally get the overwhelm. I, too, suffer from what my husband calls “overcommitment syndrome “. 🙃 Thank you for the time, effort and heart you have put into hosting us. 😍🥰 (edited) 2d
CrowCAH Thanks you so much for heading up the buddy reads! 😘 Totally understandable about commitment; lots of book clubs! Take it easy! 2d
quietjenn Thanks for all you've done! Take care of yourself. 2d
daena Thank you so much for all you‘ve done! 2d
SarahBookInterrupted You did a great job so thank you for all the reads and congratulations on taking care of you! 1d
TheAromaofBooks I definitely get it!! Thank you for all the work you've put in on this little group - we've had some great reads together!! 1d
CatLass007 @BarkingMadRead Did you change your handle while I was on hiatus from Littens? Did you used to be @BarkingMadRuns? 1d
BarkingMadRead @CatLass007 I used to be BarkingMadRun but I can‘t run anymore so i changed it 1d
CatLass007 I get that. If running is something you enjoyed, then I‘m sorry you can‘t run anymore. But you must be pretty memorable since I was off Litsy for about three years. 1d
Larkken Thank you for hosting as long as you did! I found some really fun books through this group - even if I also often overcommit to joining groups.🥰 I hope you find some breathing room! 1d
Crinoline_Laphroaig @StayCurious After I finished hosting last's years #JaneAndTheExcellentReadAlong both here and on Instagram, I hadn't planned on continuing. But my Instagram friend Claire asked me to host another. I didn't post about #12MonthsOfJane here because you were already hosting Jane Adjacent and that's what we are reading. But if you're good with it, I'll use the #JaneAdjacent tag and start sharing for any #PemberLittens who are interested. 1d
StayCurious @Crinoline_Laphroaig absolutely! That‘s totally fine with me 💜 21h

It‘s a new month and time for #BookishMonopoly!
I rolled a 9 and landed on “Fave Author.” My all-time favorite is Anne Tyler and I‘ve read all her books—except this one. It‘s a children‘s books she published in 2005 with illustrations by her daughter, Mitra Modarressi.
Thanks again for hosting this cool challenge

Motivating book when setting out to uncharted waters

3.5/5
Audiobook
This was not a typical book choice for me, but I really enjoyed the Atlantic Canada-ness of it all. This coming of age story takes place in the 1960s, in New Brunswick. The story is told by a young girl in a small town that is about to be underwater - a calculated consequence of building the Mactaquac Dam. I enjoyed the audio, as the narrator's distinctly Maritime voice provided an extra bit of authenticity.

My husband and I went for a little sunset hike with our dogs on South Mountain the other night because of our lovely weather.

Sweet. Garlic finds herself grappling with a big change - she may be turning human! - and on an adventure with her friend the Count.
The first resonated more for me. This one felt a little more on-the-nose about puberty.

As so many people have said before me, this book was so freaking CUTE, if not cuter than the first. This duology is the most adorable series about believing in yourself, embracing change, and being open to adventure. It's a super quick read and I HIGHLY recommend it!
