Nashville | Scott Faragher

Then we went to @Booksnchill ‘s workplace to gather and do a dirty Santa kind of book exchange, and @ferskner brought SOOO many ARCs to let us go through and choose what we wanted. We didn‘t even make much of dent. #NashvilleLitsyMeetUp #ProxyPosse

TheBookDream Omg that book bag. I need it 😂 6y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @TheBookDream haha I had it made on ETSY. I say #DamnitLitsy a LOT because Littens make me buy so many books. 6y

JSW That tote!!! 😍😍😍 6y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @JSW ETSY lol I just had the images messaged to them, and they made it no problem! As long as you don‘t sell for profit and you sign a waiver, Litsy will let you make your own Litsy mercy 😊 6y

Up next! @shawnmooney has persuaded me to finally read this novel.

Suet624 All of this is wonderful. 6y

MStew Where is best place to find used copys of folio society 6y

LeahBergen @meghan2714 I look for them in every secondhand bookstore I go into (and I‘ve also lucked out at charity book sales and thrift shops). If it‘s a specific title you want, I‘d go on abebooks.com and search for it. If you just want to browse the Folios on that site (from the cheapest price! 👍🏻) enter “Folio Society” into the keyword part of their search. You‘ll find lots! Some of the old ones can be found for less than $10. Hope this helps! 😄 6y

JamieLou ALPACA MY BOOKS OMG I NEED THAT MORE THAN LIFE. 😂 I love alpacas so much that my classroom is 1/2 Harry Potter 1/2 alpaca 😂😂😂 6y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @JamieLou haha it was at BAM one time when I went and I just had to get it, I live for puns and they are so cute 😍 I think it was only a dollar and it is super sturdy. 6y

JamieLou @BooksTeasAndBookishThings I googled it immediately after posting and they are sold out 😞 We don‘t have a BAM here either. Now I‘m going to have someone make it for me lol (edited) 6y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @JamieLou I will check ours and see if they have another one, if they do I will totally mail to you ❤️ 6y

Chrissyreadit Where did you get a Litsy tote????? 6y

Chrissyreadit And I wish there was a tshirt that said #blameitonlitsy! 6y

Mdargusch Fun! 6y

JamieLou @BooksTeasAndBookishThings Wow thank you! That‘s really sweet of you ❤️ 6y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @Mdargusch it was! @JamieLou no problem at all! I just hope they have another one 😊 6y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @Sapphire Not one that I know of, but maybe you can start the idea of it? I know there are a lot of Dallas area Littens and I am sure they would love to have one! 6y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @Chrissyreadit I had it made 😊 the other side has the pick, so-so, pan, and nail icons. I totally prefer the #DamnitLitsy lol so I had her put that one on there. 6y

Sapphire On it! #litsydfw 6y

The Phantom of the Opera | Gaston Leroux

#BookMail Guess what book we are featuring for Kaysen‘s 3 year photos??? I can‘t wait to see her as Christine ❤️ #PhantomOfTheOpera #POTO

britt_brooke Such a gorgeous edition! Looking forward to the photos. 😍 6y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @britt_brooke thank you! On B&N‘s website it was available for shipping to store only, but I wasn‘t sure it would make it to the B&N on Nashville in time for our meet up tomorrow. So I called and they said they could ship to me directly 🙌 But, clearly it would have made it on time lol 6y

rubyslippersreads Gorgeous! I think I need this. 😊 6y

See All 14 Comments

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @rubyslippersreads it was $25 and it looks absolutely beautiful. I can‘t wait to add to my other B&N leather editions 🙌 6y

JessClark78 I just got this edition for my collection.🖤 6y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @JessClark78 it‘s so pretty, isn‘t it? I love it ❤️ 6y

Peddler410 I need to add this to my TBR. Last year I read Les Miserables and this year was going to be The Odyssey—I haven‘t gotten passed the into 🤷‍♀️ 6y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @Peddler410 I haven‘t read the Odyssey since High School and I just remember it being so boring to read. The plot is good, but it is one where the cliff notes are better than the actual writing. I have not attempted to read again. I doubt I ever will lol but the Phantom is definitely worth a try 😊 6y

rubyslippersreads I ended up adding this edition to my library. #blameitonlitsy 😄 6y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @rubyslippersreads haha I like #DamnitLitsy because I say that very often as I go through my feed and end up getting so many of the books. Just... so many. 6y

Linsy Love this cover! 🌹 5y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @Linsy me, too! B&N leather bound collectibles are usually gorgeous 😍 5y

Linsy True!! If I ever see that one, I‘m going to have to get one for myself!! 5y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @Linsy I will say I only saw this online, but you never know, they may have in some store somewhere lol 5y

The Mystical Backpacker: How to Discover Your Destiny in the Modern World | Hannah Papp

Update for anyone who was following my quest for the perfect backpack (i.e. no one 😅):

I convinced myself that targeted marketing was the reason I so desperately desired a Fjallraven & that spending almost $80 on a bag was absurd.

So, I bought this one for much cheaper.

Li‘l backpack, get ready to be filled to the brim with books & stray bookmarks (anyone else ever end up with 5 million on the bottom of their bags?)! 🤗📚

Madamereginald Love that backpack! 7y

Stacy_31 So pretty and cheerful! 7y

LisaJo Beautiful backpack. And, yes, I end up with bookmarks in the bottom of everything. I went to one library today and came back with a dozen bookmarks, how does that happen? #BookmarkHorder 7y

See All 36 Comments

monalyisha @LisaJo I think, as a serial dog-earer, I might be using bookmarks wrong. 😂 You‘d think that‘d be hard to do but I swear they‘re always falling out of my books! Like they know that I don‘t *really* want them there & that I‘d rather be folding down the pages. 7y

monalyisha Thanks @Madamereginald & @Stacy_31 🎒 7y

Soubhiville It‘s super cute! 7y

Clare-Dragonfly I put books in my bag spine side down so bookmarks don‘t fall out. But a book sleeve works even better! 7y

monalyisha @Clare-Dragonfly That‘s very organized & thoughtful of you! I‘m more of the “fling recklessly & with abandon” type of person. 😅 But a book sleeve might be a life-changer! I could try, anyway! 7y

Readergrrl This might be the cutest backpack I‘ve ever seen! 7y

celtichik It is adorable! 7y

AmyG It‘s way cuter than a Fjallraven. 7y

monalyisha @AmyG That‘s exactly the right thing to say! 😉🙌🏻 (Thanks.) 7y

Slajaunie Ii have never heard of a Fjallraven! 7y

Ddzmini Well I love that one 😍 7y

Clare-Dragonfly @monalyisha Use the money you saved on a backpack to get some book sleeves—really pretty ones so you‘ll want to use them! 😁 7y

shellleigh33 I love this backpack!! 7y

monalyisha @Clare-Dragonfly Any particular options you recommend? Also, I normally read hardcover library books. Will they fit? Do I need a different size for a paperback book? School me in your ways! 🤓 7y

Clare-Dragonfly Haha, I only have one, so I‘m hardly an expert! I‘ve seen them in various sizes, so you should have no problem getting one to fit big hardcovers. I‘d get a smaller one for paperbacks as smaller books tend to slide out of mine. @BooksTeasAndBookishThings may have more advice! 7y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @monalyisha @Clare-Dragonfly I have lots I would recommend ❤️ for smaller ones you can use either of these two shops: https://www.etsy.com/shop/bookbubbie https://www.etsy.com/shop/BookBifff 7y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings For any larger ones, I would use any of these that typically have a large option and you know they fit, especially any fandom ones because they make them with specific books in mind: https://www.etsy.com/shop/BookBestiesUK https://www.etsy.com/shop/StoryHero https://www.etsy.com/shop/HideYourSpoons 7y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings Some others that have plenty of options for typically medium sleeves: https://www.etsy.com/shop/MyBookZleeves https://www.etsy.com/shop/StoryTimeSleeve and these are always reversible: https://www.etsy.com/shop/storybookgirls 7y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings And my personal favourite shop still isn‘t back in business yet from their big move, but her shop is: https://www.etsy.com/shop/AuAlternateUniverse 7y

monalyisha Thanks @BooksTeasAndBookishThings 🤗! There are so many! Excuse me while I overthink this. 😅 7y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @monalyisha haha absolutely ❤️ if you look at the hashtags #BookSleeve and #BookSleeves you can see a lot of my posts about them all. Or #ProtectYourBooks I think is even more exclusively just mine so you can see them all. I have a very large collection lol 7y

monalyisha @Clare-Dragonfly @BooksTeasAndBookishThings I just bought two. Remind me to never go shopping with you guys. “Oh, you saved some money? I know how you can spend that!” 😅 7y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings Haha #DamnitLitsy 7y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings But seriously, tag me when you get them in! I love them ❤️ 7y

monalyisha @BooksTeasAndBookishThings Will do! I got one from The Owl Bags (https://etsy.me/2JqgBwy) & one (because it was on sale) from One Story Designs (https://etsy.me/2pE6Sa8). 7y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings I haven‘t tried either of those yet. I am still trying to get some from other Littens‘ recommendations for me to try. But my faves will pop up with new designs and I just think, “It must be mine.” 7y

monalyisha @BooksTeasAndBookishThings I love that my original problem was “my bookmark won‘t stay in my library book.” $30 later... 😝 7y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings Two of the makers I commented actually make pockets on the sleeves to keep your bookmarks when they are not in use lol so... you know... related-ish 7y

monalyisha @BooksTeasAndBookishThings I did see some with pockets! And I saw some that were reeeaaalllyyy pretty (but, like, $30 *each*). If I end up liking these, i might have to invest. 7y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings Lol yes, but a lot of them have reps on IG with discount codes for 10-15% off and they have sales. The key is following them there to snag them when you can 😉 7y

monalyisha @BooksTeasAndBookishThings I have much to learn. 7y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings You will be very addicted once you get them. They are so cute and really do prevent your books from getting bent or pages torn. ❤️ 7y

Clare-Dragonfly 😄 7y

Gissy Beautiful! ❤ 8y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @BethM @Gissy @QuothTheRavenclawNevermore @kspenmoll right??? So beautiful 😍 @PatriciaU I replied on FB, but the shirt is just one of the options. You can change it at the bottom with the size, you can choose any of their options 8y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @moranadatter no, I didn't know that! I just saw this in my feed on Instagram and had to share because it is so pretty. I will look them up now! 8y

moranadatter I figured you didn't; I would not have known if I hadn't stumbled across the artist's message saying the art had been stolen. 8y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @moranadatter that stinks! I just assumed it was legit. I looked on their site and sure enough. I hope they get some legal restitution and are able to get things back in order. They don't have any items for sale or else I would have bought from them 😕 8y

A Moveable Feast: The Restored Edition | Ernest Hemingway

I have a theory that certain books find you. This one found me, #idontrememberbuyingthis at a recent library sale. I have a beef with Hemingway lately. Yet it was my bag. Then my husband bought me a first edition at a used bookstore bc he thought I'd like it. All within a week of each other. Hemingway is reaching out to tell me his side things? 🤔

DGRachel I love, love, love Hemingway. I know he was an ass, but his writing just speaks to me. I fear I must hunt down this book. :O #damnitlitsy 8y

Jess_Read_This @DGRachel Look for both editions! The photos in each are different and both are super neat. The paperback has photos of his handwritten notes. I've been on Zelda Fitzgerald kick lately, so I've been reading about him in an unpleasant light. However, these may shed light on his side of things. There is a lot of writing about his time with the Fitzgeralds in Paris. (edited) 8y

Jess_Read_This @DGRachel Have you ever watched the NBC show Timeless? There's an episode where they travel back in time to Paris and Hemingway makes an appearance. It was kind of funny. 8y

LeahBergen I have this one, too (only one copy 😉). 8y

Jess_Read_This @LeahBergen If a second copy finds its way to you.. take it as a sign of a need to reread? 😂 8y

Jess_Read_This @LeahBergen 🙈🤣 8y

DGRachel I haven't seen that episode of Timeless, but I just checked and it's available On Demand. I'll have to check it out. ☺️ 8y

ValerieAndBooks I have both versions of this book (but both are trade paperbacks). And did read both. Love them! 8y

Jess_Read_This @ValerieAndBooks Oh neat! Did you find any differences in reading the two? My husband is reading Old Man and the Sea and wants to read one of my Moveable Feasts afterwards. I'm definitely planning a read myself. 8y

Sarah83 I always hate it, that I can't get such great things in Germany 😭😢 8y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @Sarah83 awwww 😕 maybe you can message her on ETSY and see if you can work something out? These aren't heavy or HUGE so it may be affordable to ship there? 8y

Sarah83 mhm. Yes maybe I will have a try. I asked another one on ETSY because of a booksleeve, but they often don't ship to Germany 😢 8y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @Sarah83 did you try @MyBookZleeves ? She is based in the U.K., so may be able to for those ❤ 8y

Sarah83 No I tried another one in the US. Oh, thank you so much. I will have a try 😍 8y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @Sarah83 absolutely! I have two by her and they are GREAT ❤❤❤ She also has a discount code BTBT10 😊 8y

Sarah83 I only have the search what English sizes are. 😉 The German books are often different 😍 8y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @Sarah83 her standard size is 8 inches by 10 inches 😊 8y

Sarah83 As I often read thick books, that will make sense. Now I only have to choose the drawing 😍 Jane Austen would be nice. 😄 Are you German? 8y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @Sarah83 I am not, but my Husband's family is a mix of Austrian, German, and Romanian 😊 And I do believe she was considering P&P themed designs actually so maybe you can snag one if she stocks them 😊 8y

Roselyn_Reads Love this so much 8y

Sarah83 I just thought because of your name. 😉 Where do you live? I really hope. But I also like the Disney stuff. 🤗 8y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @Silent_Whispers me, too 😍😍😍 8y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @Sarah83 Yes, most people see it and ask if I am Scottish because of my first name or German because of my last name lol We are currently stationed in Fort Bragg, North Carolina, but we will be moving to Fort Campbell, Kentucky in a couple of months 😊 8y

Sarah83 So another US girl 😉 why are you moving? 8y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @Sarah83 we are getting stationed there by the Army because we requested it so we can be closer to family 😊 I am from Memphis and he is from Chicago so this new duty station will be in between though a bit closer to my family than his. 8y

Sarah83 That will be nice. 😉 Family is always important 🖒 8y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @Sarah83 Yes! It will be great for her to actually be around her grandparents and aunts/uncles ❤ 8y

LadyPotterHead @Sarah83 hiya, yes I do ship to Germany ??and will be bringing 2 Pride & Prejudice sleeves to the shop soon ? I make them in a Standard 8" x10" and a large 9" x 11" ?? you can also request a different size and depending on the fabric, I can see what I can do ?? 8y

LadyPotterHead @BooksTeasAndBookishThings Thanks for suggesting me 👍🏼😃❤️ 8y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @MyBookZleeves absolutely 🙌 8y

BooksTeasAndBookishThings @MyBookZleeves just got my flip flop one!!! Now to wait for a P&P one ❤ 8y
