A good thing I can say about all those cold days and nights of February is how good it feels to wrap up in a blanket and fall into a book. #indexcard collection

marleed @Ruthiella @AnnCrystal @Leftcoastzen @dabbe Thank you! Honestly, your kind words really are the encouragement that keeps me on task with this collection! 4w

CoverToCoverGirl You made a challenging and sad day much brighter. 💙💙💙 I love your monthly art display. 4w

marleed @CoverToCoverGirl Ahh, thank you. They are fun to do. And my spoilers on the short 10 lines of the backside are often times my mental challenge to capture🤣 4w

marleed @CoverToCoverGirl I hope today is looking better for you 🥰🥰 3w

Brooke Shields is Not Allowed to Get Old: Thoughts on Ageing as a Woman | Brooke Shields

My favorite thing about my 3x3 grid is mapping out the back side of my #indexcard stack to determine who gets the tag. Brooke, turns out this one is for you!

5* = Loved It, want to shout out loud about this book! I do/will own/keep a physical copy. A+
4*= I liked it, would love to discuss. Solid B
3*=Meh, no need to discuss. Avg C
2*=Nope D
1*=DNF F

eeclayton Looks like a great reading month 😎 2mo

AvidReader25 I want to read the Shields book! 2mo

TheBookHippie Almost done with The Cloister Walk. I‘m enjoying it. 2mo

marleed @eeclayton I basically hibernate during Kansas City‘s two Uary months so good books are a must! 2mo

marleed @AvidReader25 I keep thinking about it. I just really liked the delivery of her 5th decade experiences. 2mo

marleed @TheBookHippie I‘m really glad I read this. It wasn‘t an easy read for me but I liked how it centered itself on faith without being current-day American Christian Nationalist. I likely would have skipped the book had it been published post-2016 for fear of that narrative. 2mo

TheBookHippie @marleed #nunlit section and I was wary but like you saw the pub date and figure it was probably okay. I checked the publisher too 😅😂. I think it‘s important to read different faiths than mine as long as it‘s not agenda propaganda this fit that pretty well. 2mo

My body seems to have completely forgotten its Western Montana roots (maybe it was those 5 San Antonio winters I experienced🤣), because I can‘t even abide Kansas City‘s ‘Uary‘ months with comfort and ease. But at least I covered myself in the warmth of books and contributed to my new year of my #indexcard collection!

in 2024 I covered myself with 272 books. Years back on Litsy I bemoaned my inability to retain all I read. I paraphrase a Litten response - Like eating I read to live. I don‘t remember every meal I ate this year, and I don‘t recall every book read. But the great ones, oh boy, do I remember those! …So, it‘s like that - along with spoilers and my subjective ratings on the backside of every #indexcard pictured! Happy 2025 you gorgeous Littens!

marleed @Meshell1313 @Ruthiella @Seabreeze_Reader @AmyG @AnnCrystal @BookmarkTavern @dabbe @Deblovestoread Thanks everyone! if only I could scan those cards and have them spit out a cloth quilt! 3mo

bookandbedandtea I love your index cards! Happy New Year 🎉 3mo

AnnCrystal @marleed there are ways, if you have the correct ink in your home printer, you can copy them into iron-on paper and make yourself an art quilt. They also have a few different fabric markers, where you draw directly into cloth when making next year's collection and then iron them after to set ink or toss them in the dryer. 3mo

Chelsea.Poole Wow, this is excellent! Happy New Year! 3mo

BarbaraBB 🤩🤩Happy New Year 3mo

marleed @AnnCrystal Oh that is fascinating! 3mo

marleed @Chelsea.Poole @BarbaraBB @bthegood Thank you! And they are now all sorted into my previous years‘ efforts!😳 3mo

AnnCrystal @marleed 😉👍💝. 3mo

DogMomIrene Wowza! Are those 3x5 or 5x7 index cards? Do you stand on a chair to get that shot? Or do you need a ladder? 3mo

marleed @DogMomIrene They are heavy-weight 3x5 cards. And I stand on my small step ladder and do my best to reach over as many rows possible to get the shot. I downsized by 1/3 the size of the home we had built to raise my kids. This house is 40 years older and with low ceilings so my head would go through the ceiling if I didn‘t hunch over on that step ladder as I reach my phone to the center😜. I must look ridiculous in my attempt! 3mo

kspenmoll Love your book tracking method & list!!!! 3mo

DogMomIrene @marleed Wow! You should get someone to take a photo of this event, even if it‘s just for you. Very cool tradition! 3mo

marleed @DogMomIrene My son is a director of photography for an advertising agency. I‘ve actually never showed him this annual photo because I‘m pretty sure he‘d respond with - you do what with every book you read. 🤣 🤣. For the last 5 years he‘s also spent the last week after Christmas at Times Square with a press pass (hotel room and importantly - bathroom) shooting/editing video for a client. Hey, shouldn‘t a mom have priority 🤣🤣 3mo

DogMomIrene @marleed Yes! Mom should have priority! And her book cards. 3mo

marleed @DogMomIrene 🤣🤣👏 3mo

Suet624 I just saw this post and holy moly! I‘ve always loved your cards and seeing them all laid out is spectacular. 3mo

Last batch of entries for my 2024 #indexcard collection before I throw all 12 months into a single pile for the annual pic - then tediously sort them by author last name into years worth of cards. So my day is planned!

marleed @dabbe I order these Staedler markers from Amazon because they don‘t bleed to the backside of my heavyweight card where I keep my notes with a fine line no bleed black sharpie. Link - https://a.co/d/fwfGqRs 3mo

What entertains me about my #indexcard collection is I don‘t differentiate between physical, e-book, or audio, thrifted, pre-purchased, or library loan - it‘s just stories I‘ve consumed. And good lord, I need the spoilers written on the backsides to re-open the ‘pages‘ locked in the cavernous halls of my brain!

I‘m a mood reader but can‘t believe I stayed on theme for the entire month! My issue is I stacked my Oct TBR all year and need an additional couple months to flatten said TBR so I‘ll just redate tomorrow to Oct 32!

marleed @BookmarkTavern @bookandbedandtea @Ruthiella @AnnCrystal @dabbe @CoverToCoverGirl Oh thank you! The front sides are fun to do. I jot down my star rating for the books on the back lined pages. I don‘t write down my feelings about the book though. Instead I use the lines to write plot points and spoilers that will jog my feeble memory when trying to recall just what was in the books I read 🤪 6mo

AnnCrystal @marleed that\'s brilliant 📚🎨😎👍💝. 6mo

For the most part this month I selected books based on cover art providing me a summer feel. I‘m a mood reader, and as September settles in my reading plans take a drastic turn. No telling if these books would have made it off my 2025 TBR so I feel good about this wrap up! #indexcard
