Litsy

Gatsby spends many #summernights throwing lavish parties for hangers on, frequently stepping away to answer the #telephonewire (usually business from Chicago), hoping that Daisy will walk in, so they can rekindle their romance and finally be together #forgood.

And now I'm all caught up 🙂

readordierachel @Cinfhen @Cathythoughts 🤗🤗 6y

readordierachel @vivastory It's the only Fitzgerald I've ever read. Definitely need to correct that. I used to be meh about it too, but I liked it much more when I recently reread it. 6y

Six of Crows | Leigh Bardugo

Bardugo's Six of Crows is my most recent book that I loved where friendships are pivotal in the characters' lives, even the most hardened ones.

TheBookStacker I just finished her other trilogy and I‘m going to start this duology tomorrow! Love the world that the books are set in. Friendship plays a huge role in her other books as well! 6y

vivastory @TheBookStacker I haven't read her trilogy, I'm definitely curious about it though 6y

readordierachel I need to reread these ❤ 6y

Cinfhen It‘s ok, nobody else probably ever wanted to read it anyway 😜 6y

Leftcoastzen Oops,wonder what the fine would be?! 6y

merelybookish @Graywacke Something like that! 😉 6y

merelybookish @Cinfhen No kidding! 6y

merelybookish @Leftcoastzen I have paid lots of late fees and lost book fees to other libraries since then, so hopefully my karma will even out. 6y

Leftcoastzen I mean to send no guilt or blame your way.😀I‘m sure your karma is fine. 6y
