So, I apologize ladies!! I know I‘ve been extremely MIA the last few weeks.. I don‘t really have an explanation other than..life.. and it has been QUITE the last few weeks. Anyways!! @Kaye I DO have the map!! I‘ve ran into some problems finding postcards lol, but I‘ve got a few other places to check! And I will be mailing it out on Friday when I get paid!! Have a good week ladies, happy reading 🤗❤️

Kaye Thanks for letting me know you‘ve got it ,Ash. Postcards are hard to find in some areas. We only have 1 store here that has them. 6y
AshD16 You‘re welcome!! And I was thinking about checking out the Peoria Riverfront Museum, but I believe you have to pay to get in lol. I‘m gonna go up there and see if they‘d let me just go to the gift shop! 6y
Kaye Hi Ashlyn , Checking in to see if you could please go ahead and mail the map ? If you couldn‘t find postcards please send the map to the next on the list. Thanks. 5y

Just picked up two new books from my TBR list to read on my downtime from work due to surgery. Cannot wait to get into them 😍 I guess I‘ve been on quite the non-fiction/auto/biography kick lately because my last few books have all been those genres! Anyways, I know what this girl is doing all weekend 😍😍😍

I just wanted to take a second to let everyone know that I‘m having surgery in the morning, so I may be absent for a bit.. I mostly just wanted to update those who are in the #JB group, most specifically those who have wrote to me and have not received a reply back from me yet! I did not forget about you!! I‘ve been pretty sick lately, so haven‘t done much of anything! But I will be in touch soon!! Have a great week everyone ❤️ #litsylove #jb

Changing it up a little with this pick!! Was wanting another quick, light read, and I‘m a sucker for a good non-fiction, slightly action packed, history novel 🤗 all the reviews on litsy‘s book profile for the book were pretty good, so I‘m anxious to get this book and my 3 day weekend started 🤩🚀🌒💫

I‘m not really sure how I felt about this book 🤔 I‘m not sure if it was the way it was written, or the story itself, but I kept waiting for the moment that it would just..grab me, I suppose, and it never did. It was really slow getting started, but I kept going hoping that it would pick up, but it just continued to flatline.. BUT it was a beautiful story in itself; the characters, the references, quotes, and overall “point” of the story was ⬇️

AshD16 Beautiful. Sooo, I‘ll give it ⭐️⭐️⭐️ out of 5!! 6y

Albeit a long quote, it is powerful. This entire book as been full of phrases, paragraphs, and conversations that have just grabbed ahold of me and haven‘t let go! I began this book thinking it‘d be a quick, light read but so far has been quite a lot more! I am anxious to finish it! I hope you all enjoy this”quote” as much as I did 🤔😊

Aaahhhh!! Only on chapter 3 and this book is already SO intense!! It‘s so full of action, yet so much love and passion. Spending my Sunday just how it should be - curled up on the recliner with a book in one hand, coffee in the other, and not a thing on my mind other than what I‘m reading 🙌🏼❤️ #sundayspentright 📚☕️

tammysue Sounds like a pretty great night! 💜😊 6y

Junky | William S. Burroughs
Mehso-so

Well, after 2-3 days I finally finished “Junky”! I have to say, I was a little disappointed. I had such high hopes for this book! I will say, the story itself was good but was pretty slow at times. And I did not care for the ending.. it was almost like it finished right in the middle of the story. I found myself searching the last pages that contained the Appendix‘s for an Epilogue! All in all I‘d give it 2.5 out of 5 stars!

MStew I didn't love it ethier, felt repetitive to me i was really hoping for more. 6y

The Power of the Dog | Don Winslow
Pickpick

Just finished “The Power of the Dog” and I LOVED it!! Absolutely 5 stars! Winslow was so creative and powerful with his writing and choice of words, I truly felt like I was reading actual history about the drug wars in the ‘80‘s and ‘90‘s! Picking up his sequel “The Cartel” tomorrow!! I would no doubt read this book again in the future! If you‘re interested in history, crime, corruption in politics, and drug wars, it‘s a must read!! 👏🏼😍

wintercherry I‘m halfway through and enthralled. I have a copy of Cartel ready and waiting. Last yealr I read The Force and it was my favourite book of the year. If you haven‘t read it you must! 6y
AshD16 It was incredible!! I could not put it down! I am actually on my way to pick up a copy of Cartel now! lol. And I will have to check it out!! Is it also written by Winslow? 6y

Has anyone else been SOOO angry at a character in your book for something they did?! Because right now, Mr. Fabian has me so dang angry, that I am ready to put my book down for the night 😂🤬 I love a good book that can create such intense feelings while reading! Even though my boyfriend may or may not be thinking I‘m slightly crazy at the moment 😂🤷🏼‍♀️ #damnitfabian #thePOWERofthedog 🙄🤦🏼‍♀️

wintercherry It was shocking, wasn‘t it? 6y
