Eggs Absolutely 💯 2w

BooksandCoffee4Me My husband and I were teachers at the same high school when we met and started dating. To avoid awkwardness, we didn‘t let our relationship be known, but he would put a handwritten note in my teacher‘s mailbox every morning 😊❤️ 1w

#FeelinTheLove Day 10: This one is Ludwig Van Beethoven‘s letter to his Immortal Beloved – who this is remains a mystery until now. This is a fascinating book that contains amorous and heartfelt #Loveletters of famous people: from Vita Sackville-West and Viriginia Woolf to Franz Kafka‘s letter to Felice Bauer.

Lindy @LeahBergen Let me know what you think afterwards, okay? 6mo

Lindy @tournevis Jolene and I will make additional videos diving into the many excellent nominations that didn‘t make our top 67. I will be making one especially about the 19 French-language titles that were mentioned. 6mo

squirrelbrain Oh, looking forward to seeing the results of this! 7mo

Lindy @squirrelbrain Me too! So far, we don‘t have a lot of overlap in titles. Early days…. 7mo

tournevis Ooh! That's a good idea 7mo

tournevis That was so fun! Had to cut out a few books that I know I read in the early 2000-oughts but that were published in like 1998 or 1999. Pretty sure that I'll be the only one citing a few of these too. 7mo

Lindy @tournevis Thanks Isabelle! 6mo

tournevis @Lindy 🖖 6mo

LiteraryHoarderPenny Thanks for letting me participate!! It was fun. It was hard! I‘m anxiously awaiting the full list! 6mo

Lindy @LiteraryHoarderPenny So far, the front runner is a book that made both of the NYT top 100 lists (the original list plus the readers choice) 6mo
