Welcome to Litsy!

Also thank you to all you lovely littens who wished me better yesterday - apparently I only needed to rest my back as it‘s feeling much better today! Unfortunately I‘m now dealing with the worst eczema breakout I think I‘ve ever had while simultaneously trying to figure out what in the world is going on with my big toe on my left foot.🤦🏻‍♀️ soaking in an epsom bath & reading to try & help. #fallingapart #littensarewonderful #litsycommunity

Reading this month's #maidensofmurder pick. Very carefully 😬 #fallingapart

If I was at my parents' house, I could use my copy of The Grapes of Wrath, as that book is truly #FallingApart. (I might have stolen it from my senior English classroom by simply forgetting to turn it in at the end of the semester.) But I'm at my apartment, so the best I can do is this slightly worn copy of What Maisie Knew. #SpringFlingReading

#Fallingapart #SpringFlingReading @jess.how My husband's battered edition.

#springflingreading I first checked Ender's Game out of the library, then bought a copy and read it until it came apart, then bought this copy and read it until it is also #fallingapart I've got a nice hardcover on my shelf, and I keep this copy in the drawer of my nightstand.

My mother used this encyclopedia for reference as she raised my siblings and I. It is #fallingapart and even though I don't have children it is still a sweet treasure she has kept and passed down to me.

The first copy of Pride & Prejudice I ever owned. I literally read it to pieces. Anyone want to guess which scene this is? ☺

Many of my selection of books that are #fallingapart were assigned in school. Or (as a re-reader) they were books I read over and over in school. I have lost the covers and if I want to read these copies I have to lay them flat to read as they are in chunks. (Except for The Sword in the Stone despite the missing cover the binding is still good!) Even though that are #tattered they still hold a piece of me! #booklove #springflingreading #oldbooks

My well loved copy of Americanah is #fallingapart and I really need to get my hands on a new, sturdier copy!

#SpringFlingReading

My Agatha Christie collection is my go to for quite a few prompts including #crazycovers #marchintoreading and #fallingapart #springflingreading. My older but well loved Christie's are showing their age, sometimes the pages fall out etc.
