Thanks, @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks and @Eggs!

Cat Stevens | Cat Stevens

#TuesdayTunes @TieDyeDude

A series of small things led me to listen to increasingly depressing music over the course of the week, so I had to take refuge in one of my comfort albums:

lil1inblue 🤩😍🤩 3mo

marleed Love Cat Stevens and sometimes I find great comfort in sad - even downright pathetic music. Etta James All I could do was cry - I mean 😭 😭 3mo

IndoorDame @marleed so true, the right sad music is cathartic, and Etta James is certainly that 3mo

TieDyeDude Excellent choice. Thanks for sharing! 3mo

The_Book_Ninja I went to the same school as Cat Stevens (Hugh Myddleton School) The school moved to a new building and pupil numbers scaled down after he left but for a few years, when I was there, he would pay for coaches to take the whole school on trips to Margate Amusement Park. (edited) 3mo

IndoorDame @The_Book_Ninja that‘s so neat! 3mo

rubyslippersreads For many women, I think their favorite thing in this movie is Christopher Plummer. 🤣 12mo

Eggs Beautiful 😍 12mo

TheBookgeekFrau @rubyslippersreads @Eggs So..... I've never watched the movie 😅 I bought this book years ago for my daughter after she learned the song in chorus and loved it. It's now part of our family Christmas book collection. 12mo

Andrew65 @peanutnine Is NC, North Carolina? 12mo

Andrew65 1 l live in Yorkshire, in northern England, although born in London.
2. Time to chill, relax & get lost in books! Also all the lights / colour and festive feel.
3. Word search & team feel, along with choosing books for bingos/ readathons.
4. Mystery and suspense, especially crime. Also enjoy historical fiction, some fantasy, and what would badly be termed chick lit (without the sex). At Christmas like to get lost in Christmas stories & romance. 12mo

Deblovestoread 1. I live in the Willamette Valley Oregon. I‘m not too far from the ocean, the desert or the city. 2. I love decorating the tree and house, the music & movies. 3. Word search, bingo and all the games. 4. Historical Fic, mysteries, fantasy and a little Christmas romance. 👋🏼 team! 🎄 (edited) 12mo

peanutnine @Andrew65 yes North Carolina! I definitely love all the Christmas stories this time of year 😄 12mo

5280reader

1. I live in Erie, Colorado about 30 min. north of Denver.
2. I love baking Christmas cookies and enjoying my daughter home from college. I collect ornaments so decorating the tree is high up there too!
3. Probably the bingo. I feel like I‘m 75 in a small town smoky bingo hall dabbing 25 bingo cards in front of me.
4. Love a good rom com with smart writing and a great meet cute. Bonus if it‘s an audiobook with an English accented narrator.
12mo

peanutnine @Deblovestoread I've always wanted to visit Oregon, it seems like a beautiful place! Christmas music is the best, I'm so excited that it is an acceptable time to listen to it again 😅 12mo

5280reader @Andrew65 I ventured up to Harrogate and the Dales about 7 years ago- loved it!! 12mo

peanutnine @5280reader your bingo analogy 🤣 love it! So true. I love decorating Christmas cookies even though I can't eat them (allergies) 12mo

candc320 1. I live in the Tampa Bay Area of Florida. 2. I absolutely love watching all the holiday movies (other than Hallmark….romance isn‘t really my thing) and going around at night looking at all the Christmas lights! 3. I‘m excited for all the Bingos! 4. My favorite genres are Horror, Thriller/Mystery, and Historical Fiction. 12mo

peanutnine @candc320 ooh we've got a bunch of mystery & historical fiction fans! Love it 12mo

Andrew65 @5280reader A lovely area of the world, we‘re about 40 miles south of Harrogate just on the southern border of Yorkshire. Nearest towns Barnsley and Doncaster. 12mo

TheAromaofBooks @5280reader - On the bingo, SAME! 😂 It's a little ridiculous but I love it!! 12mo

Andrew65 If anyone hasn‘t see it we have posted the #RushathonChristmasBingo this weekend. @Deblovestoread @Blerdgal_fenix @mcipher @candc320 @TheAromaofbooks @Andrew65 @5280reader @Kay.the.bibliophile

Deblovestoread All the bingos! I have 16 cards made up from all the Litsy posts so far. I thought I saw a non Hallmark movie bingo but can‘t find it now. Has anyone seen that one? 12mo

Andrew65 @Deblovestoread Wow 16, I must be missing some. 🤷‍♂️ 12mo

Deblovestoread @amdrew65. Here are the Littens that have posted bingos @Bookwormjillk @TheAromaofBooks @Clwojick @Jadams1776 @Emilymdxn @peanutnine @PuddleJumper @Texreader and I have one non Litsy from Libby app. Happy hunting 😁 12mo

Andrew65 @Deblovestoread Thanks 😍 12mo

TheAromaofBooks @Deblovestoread - Oooo thank you!! I had missed a few of these!! 12mo

peanutnine @Deblovestoread there are a few non Hallmark movie bingo boards in the Google drive, but also you can use the Hallmark boards for movies that aren't by Hallmark or even for books if you want. We're lax on interpretation ☺️ 12mo

Deblovestoread @peanutnine thanks for the Google doc reminder! 😍 12mo

Clwojick ❤️❤️❤️ 12mo

mcipher I‘m late but 1) The northern Oregon coast 2) The lights and the sparkly ornaments on my tree, and my kids coming to visit for Xmas! 3) I‘m intrigued by all this bingo talk so I‘m going to go find some boards 4) Romance, mystery, fantasy, dark academia, speculative fiction (edited) 12mo

peanutnine @mcipher never too late! Hope you enjoy the bingo experience 😜💖 12mo

Good game, @Eggs thanks for this one!

1. As a child there were actually two books: The Secret Garden, & The Lion The Witch and the Wardrobe. I couldn‘t choose between them if I tried!

2. When I turned 7, My dad & I starting taking walkabouts around towns we‘d visit, usually towns he had lived in. Ones that have special meaning to him. I learn so much about his life from those walks.

3. Oct. 7th crawling through an archeological site in Eqypt.
