Bookwormjillk Talk to me Goose. I got 61%. I love Jaws and Apollo 13 and I had no idea there were so many Jurassic Park movies. Maybe that will be my summer project. 1w
dabbe @Bookwormjillk Now THAT's a project I can wrap my head around! Excellent score! 👏🏻👏🏻Thanks for playing and sharing. 🍿♥️🍿 1w

Librarybelle 45 for me, and I‘m shocked by that! I like so many on the list including Sleepless in Seattle, Barbie, and Mamma Mia (because it‘s just fun to sing along to ABBA). 1w
RaeLovesToRead Noooo we haven't got to the books on 1001 that I HAVE read yet hahaha 😵😵‍💫 1w
RaeLovesToRead I've seen 40 of these, but there are a load on this list that I'm embarrassed to never have seen haha 1w
ImperfectCJ 82/100 for me, although I can't say that I liked most of them. Recently re-watched Poltergeist, and that was pretty fun. 1w
Read4life I‘d say I‘m sorry we didn‘t finish the 1001 list… but I‘m NOT! #sorrynotsorry 1w
dabbe @Librarybelle I hope in a good way! 🤩 Thanks for playing and sharing. ♥️🍿💛 1w
dabbe @RaeLovesToRead I think that ship has sailed for most of us! I did give you the link to the rest of the books! 😍 1w

dabbe @kspenmoll Yay you! Did you have a favorite? Thanks for playing and sharing. ♥️🍿💛 1w
Amor4Libros 54%!!! 🙌🏽 1w
shortsarahrose 52, but more impressive (for me) is the streak I had of always seeing the top movie of the year from 2001-2019 (only missed 2 in that period - the Transformers one and Despicable Me 2) 1w
shortsarahrose I did look at the rest of the 1001 books list. I had read 5 (well, 4.5 - Color Purple is in progress) from the remaining titles and probably have twice that on my TBR. 1w
dabbe @Amor4Libros #yahooyou! 👏🏻👏🏻 Thanks for playing and sharing. ♥️🍿💛 1w
dabbe @shortsarahrose How cool is that? #bravo 👏🏻👏🏻 Thanks for playing and sharing. ♥️🍿💛 1w

dabbe @melissajayne Thanks for playing and sharing. ♥️🍿💛 1w
TheLudicReader 73. I saw Grease about 20 times the summer it came out. 5d
dabbe @TheLudicReader I got a 73, too! #surprisesurprise And we've written about GREASE to each other. The summer of 1978 ... I think that was the only movie I saw and kept going to see. I word out my record soundtrack! 5d

📢 Please note that I've dropped the Saturday to make it a simpler hashtag. Saturday shall be known as Chatterday from now. 😅

Our first #Chatterday of 2025.
❄️ How were your holidays?
❄️ What's your mood today?
❄️ How are you coping with the short days?
❄️ Any good recommendations, books, tv, film, etc

@thebookhippie @Chrissyreadit @Sace @Soscha @dabbe @Cuilin @Eggs @TheLudicReader @TheAromaofBooks @Deblovestoread @DebinHawaii

Bookwormjillk Happy #Chatterday Holidays were okay- two weeks of guests made for a lot of work. I wisely took the 2nd and the 3rd off for recovery. A day of errands and prep today and then a mini road trip for my daughter‘s tournament tomorrow. Also my son gets his license so tomorrow so he‘ll be driving us there! 6mo
Sace My holidays were nice and low key. Thanksgiving is the big holiday for us. I‘ve been doing pretty well with the shorter days and my mood has been good. I‘m currently reading several books for Litsy challenges and buddy reads, but I‘ve managed to squeeze in a binge watch of The Night Agent on Netflix. It‘s really good! 6mo
Cupcake12 Christmas seems ages away! I‘m working 4 days in a row from today and the forecast for snow is 30cm tonight ❄️ 6mo

TheBookHippie Finally snow and a bit of sun. I‘ve seen the sun maybe 3 times since December 🤯 not a fan. Hanukkah and New Years collided and the holidays ended so at last it‘s calm. Taking grandson round the corner today to our favorite thrift store, otherwise it‘s reading and warm beverages! The Six Triple Eight on Netflix is amazing. Daughter is still slow and sore but improves daily. (edited) 6mo
dabbe Warm and sunny here. #surprisesurprise Chores today and hopefully lots of reading. I chose too many wonderful buddy reads to be a part of, and I'm truly going to try and keep up. 🤪 6mo
Cuilin @dabbe Apart from the sunshine, same. Why do we do this? I just joined another today. 🤦‍♀️ 6mo
Cuilin @TheBookHippie Glad to hear your daughter is improving. 😊 6mo
Cuilin Indoor day, cleaning, tidying, knitting all while audiobooking. Black Doves on Netflix was excellent. (edited) 6mo
TheBookHippie @dabbe 🤣😂🇫🇷♥️😘 6mo
Deblovestoread Holidays were different this year and a lot more work. Back home again with a few chores to do and some reading. So far I‘ve kept up on my daily journaling (word for the year is strength), will start Les Mis today and get caught up. On track with Lark Rise to Candleford and looking forward to Sense & Sensibility. No TV lately. 6mo
dabbe @Cuilin The #foma phenomenon I believe. At least it is for me. 😂 6mo
dabbe @TheBookHippie Glad your daughter is improving. ❣️🇫🇷❣️ 6mo
TheBookHippie @Deblovestoread are you reading with us? Did I forget you 😵‍💫😬 (edited) 6mo
Deblovestoread @TheBookHippie wishing your daughter a complete recovery 🩵 6mo
Deblovestoread I am but I don‘t think I decided until the last minute and didn‘t let you know. Plus I chose not to start til today…so you are good and I am slacking 😂 @TheBookHippie 6mo
TheBookHippie @Deblovestoread let me know if you want to be tagged. 6mo
Deblovestoread Please tag me. I intend to be caught up today. Thank you 😘. @TheBookHippie (edited) 6mo
AllDebooks @Bookwormjillk glad you had a lovely family holiday but a few days to yourself too. Good luck to your new driver x 6mo
AllDebooks @Sace Glad you had a good holidays. I'll have to check Netflix out. 6mo
AllDebooks @Cupcake12 it really does. We have a snow forecast tonight too. Stay warm ❄️💙❄️ 6mo
AllDebooks @TheBookHippie we're due snow too. Enjoy your time with grandson. I love a good thrift store find. Wishing your daughter a good recovery, it is going to take time recover from surgery x 6mo
AllDebooks @dabbe I hear you on the buddyreads. I've got 14 this month. 😅🫣 6mo
AllDebooks @Cuilin lol, I'm just as bad as you and @dabbe I'm too easily bewitched by books and FOMO 😅 6mo
AllDebooks @Cuilin I have that on my watchlist. 😊 6mo
AllDebooks @Deblovestoread I'm so excited for S & S, my favourite Austen. Love the Dashwoods. 6mo
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick Holidays were fine, but i worked more than usual this year so it didn't quite feel like Xmas. Grandma was able to celebrate at home. They short days luckily don't get me down too much, but I am a fan of cozy twinkle lights over harsh overhead lights. We've been revisiting DCs Legends of Tomorrow, which is now complete, if you enjoy unexpected misfit heroes in bonkers situations who are sometimes morally gray. Otherwise, trying to catch up here. 6mo
dabbe @AllDebooks Holy guacamole, Batman! 🤩🤪😂 6mo
dabbe @AllDebooks I hear ya! 🤩😂🤗 6mo
mhillis I don‘t usually have much time to watch series, but during the vacation I found that Drops of God on AppleTV was very good! And it‘s based on a manga 🙌 6mo
AllDebooks @mhillis thanks, I'll check it out. 😊 6mo
kspenmoll Its Sunday but - I spent Saturday with my HS best friend. We laugh & laugh! 6mo

dabbe @IndoorDame #greatminds And I need more choices cuz I love Miss Marple, too! Thanks for playing! ❤️💜🩷 1y
rwmg Only 3? Oh dear. In no particular order: Sir John Appleby, Wesley Peterson, Kate Shackleton. But ask me again next week and I might choose somebody else entirely 1y
dabbe @rwmg Me, too! You've given me 3 new ones to add to my TBR. Thanks for playing! 🤩 1y
iread2much Hmmm, I don‘t read a lot of mysteries, but maybe Will Trent (I really like the TV show but haven‘t read the books) Lady Sherlock (my favorite!), and Beka Cooper from the series by that name. She‘s not brilliant, but she‘s good 1y
dabbe @iread2much Haven't read any of these--on the good ol' TBR! Thanks for playing! ❤️💜🩷 1y

Some #litsylove will be on its way tomorrow. The postman left a card for me today, so I will bring these ones to the post office, when I get my parcel. 💖

@BarbaraBB #1001bookswap #stdb2018
@Jess7 #bookmarkandgoodies
@CrowCAH #thereisalwaysmorepemberley
@ju.ca.no #surprisesurprise 😂😂😂

CrowCAH Woohoo awesome!!! The battle is on to see if your book will arrive to me before my Jane Austen Swap parcel or after (the swap box still hasn‘t arrived-trying not to panic lol) 7y
Sarah83 @CrowCAH you don't have me as match. In that case your box would be already at your place. 😉❣️ But I think it will take some time. In Germany is a holiday on Monday, so it will take a bit of time. ✊ 7y
BarbaraBB Yay! 😘 7y

Sarah83 @BarbaraBB hope it will be at your place on Wednesday. 😉 7y
BarbaraBB Me too 🤞😀💕 7y
Sarah83 @BarbaraBB I put some extras into the parcel aswell. Hope you like them. 💝 7y
BarbaraBB @Sarah83 you‘re too good! I am looking forward to it. Thank you so much! X 7y
Sarah83 @BarbaraBB ❣️💖 thank you 7y
Jess7 Aww thank you!! 🤗🤗🤗 7y
ju.ca.no aah you were faster than me! I have something waiting to be mailed out as well, I will do it next week once I‘m back from France :) 7y
Sarah83 @Jess7 you're welcome 😊 7y
Sarah83 @ju.ca.no it's my turn. 😉 7y
ju.ca.no It arrived today- thank you❤️ I won‘t be home until friday night, I will open it then😍😍 7y
Sarah83 @ju.ca.no Sounds great. Your parcel isn't there @barbarabb 7y
BarbaraBB Not yet! 7y
BarbaraBB 🤞maybe when I come home from work! 7y
Sarah83 @BarbaraBB just wondering, how long it takes. 7y
Sarah83 @BarbaraBB still isn't there? 7y
BarbaraBB @Sarah83 No... but Monday was Pinksteren here, so maybe all mail has been delayed as a result? I am on the lookout, hopefully tomorrow 🙏 7y
Sarah83 @BarbaraBB In Germany aswell.. mhm. As I send it as parcel without tracking I can't see, where it is. Can you remember how long your parcel was on its way? 7y
BarbaraBB Very fast, I think it took three days at the most. It‘ll be here today, I am sure! 7y
Sarah83 @BarbaraBB hope so. 😍 7y
Sarah83 Still not at your place? @CrowCAH @Jess7 7y
Jess7 I haven‘t received anything yet, but I‘m still at work if it was delivered today. 7y
Sarah83 @Jess7 in Germany were several holidays aswell. A parcel to the Netherlands, which normally should be there within two days, needed one week, so I don't get nervous at the moment. 😉 Hope it will arrive soon. 7y
Jess7 Omg! I had no idea you were mailing something from overseas!! I‘ve never mailed anything overseas! 7y
Sarah83 @Jess7 never realised that I write in German sometimes. 😉 Yes I am from Germany and maybe the letter is still at the toll. 7y
CrowCAH @Sarah83 nope, has not arrived. (The Jane Austen Swap package arrived first lol) 7y
