This. So munch this.

I have mixed feelings about this one, it‘s between a so/so and a pick for me. I mostly enjoyed it, but some of the gender dynamics irritated me. It didn‘t necessarily feel much different than a regency, I‘m not sure what I expected medieval romance to be- but it was mostly a pleasant surprise. 3 ⭐️ #littensloveromance

This book was completely banana pants. I was totally captivated. I‘m definitely reading book 2! #lmpbc

Why yes, I am audio baking donuts at 8:30pm for my kid‘s bake sale tomorrow πŸ˜‚ full time mom, full time employee lol

Decided on a full hour of puppy snuggles, reading, and hot cocoa for lunch on the dreary day.

Did some lunch yoga and some #lmpbc reading. Snuggled these goons who both have allergies, UTIs, and giardia per their yearly check up πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ

Had a rough week at work last week, therefore I ended up bingeing this over the weekend despite all my book club reads πŸ˜‚ Quality sports romance.

Hey I did this on time! Thanks for the tags @TheSpineView @Kshakal
1- in true WI fashion, there‘s a cheese store that makes incredible cheese curds and mozzarella sticks! Cedar Valley Cheese Store

2- yes! Definitely anything around baking because I love it so much. Coffee shops too.

Thank you @Mommamanzi ! #cbbc is my favorite thing!

What we‘re/are your favorite potty training books for either him or me? Or any sage advice? All of a sudden the last two days he‘s asked to poop on the potty even though he couldn‘t πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

Good stuff. Starting to see some diverging from the tv series.

1- tigger has been since I was young.
2- I always loved witch of blackbird pond.

This was just ok. Grandma wasn‘t as quirky as I expected and the ghost played a minimal role.

This was pretty good. Endearing romance and great family. I did want to shake Lina a lot of the time though πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ

1- workout gear and a sweatshirt.
2- three or four? Too many lol.

I had no idea this was coming out! I‘ve been reading this series since I was a pre-teen. I should probably buy it in print right? Feels like something I‘d buy in ebook now as an adult but I have the rest of the series in print. What would you do?

Also @ElizaMarie this bear quote in your journal made me laugh bc my son went to bed cuddling his monster truck book last night πŸ˜‚

@ElizaMarie thank you so much for this #cbbc box! It‘s so rare to get anything doctor who related!! Also I‘m super excited to read the cozy you chose! #coffeebeanbookclub @Gissy yours is going in the mail today!

Some feel good reading with puppy snuggles!

1- tagged
2- not really march is a slower month for us.

I love this idea! I couldn‘t figure out how to make Harry better with the white sides πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

#lmpbc #groupc here are some Sff I‘ve pulled off my shelves. This was the genre that brought me into reading so there‘s more on my shelf If you guys don‘t like these πŸ˜‚

So Wednesday was hard and I‘m still battling a lot of negative self talk. I did not get the job despite being the most qualified by a lot. My personality is too much essentially. So I went to the library book sale on lunch and got all these plus one more for $3! I didn‘t hVe time to read backs so I chose based on titles, known authors, and genre (Xmas). What a good deal!

Even though i‘ve never met Morgan Hagey IRL I got to know her through the friend of a friend years ago. I‘ve watched her journey as a mom and a woman, often in awe. Then last year she wrote a whole damn book!

I just finished it, and friends it‘s good. I wouldn‘t say so if it wasn‘t πŸ™‚ check her out! Word on the street is that book two is coming soon! I‘d call it light sci-fi. A bit messier in spots than I‘d prefer, but still very good.

Amazon first reads- not impressed. The MC was whiney and wouldn‘t take charge of her life. Far more trauma and triggers than expected as I thought I was getting a lighter romance.

Over the last few years her book 3‘s have always felt like a bit of a let down. I was enthralled by one and two- this was good, but not one and two good. It‘s almost like she runs out of steam? Still a pick.

1- no but hubs made me feel special anyway!
2- we keep it low key for valentine, so maybe a pair of ice fishing gloves?

My friend loved this, generally we like the same things. This was not it. It just felt so young. The formatting is terrible and doesn‘t translate to audio or ebook well. I didn‘t find either MC all that likable and felt no desire to come back once I put it down. Ultimately returned to the library early.

Bailing on this. To be fair there are a lot of trigger warnings, but this isn‘t quite what I expected going in. The very start of the book talks about what ends up being just this side of a rape fantasy for lack of a better word. I work with sex offenders and have never heard a story like that out of a non criminal. That really set the tone for me and I just couldn‘t move past it. Not that I‘m suggesting she‘s akin to a sex offender, but πŸ‘‡

As always, better late than never πŸ˜‚ I intervened for a promotion today so things have been a bit crazy the last few days!
1- I‘m 100% a mood reader, this makes book challenges etc hard for me.
2- Pre- child saturdays, now anytime I get to myself where I‘m not already exhausted πŸ˜‚
Thanks for the tags @JenReadsAlot @Kshakal

Has anyone read this? The intro was really hard for me to read bc it triggered all kinds of work related stuff. Not sure I want to go on….

#twofortuesday
1. Spare
2. I was so intrigued, honestly loved it!

I was totally lost on the audio so I checked out the ebook. Intriguing enough to continue. Rec from an IRL friend.

My view from my kid‘s floor πŸ˜‚ This book was so good! Sweeping novel while also having great romance. I‘m intrigued enough to try more. The only complaint was that it was overly descriptive at times.

Finally got the kiddo down early enough to spend some time together (me reading, him watching tv lol). I‘ve never read a 700 page romance novel but I‘m liking it!

99 Pennies today only!

Rearing and cocoa while I attempt sleep training

@wanderinglynn it came! Thank you so much!

I‘m up way past my bedtime, but my gosh that was riveting. Heartfelt, traumatic, hopeful, not at all sensationalist. Hugs, he needs, and deserves, a lifetime of hugs.

Had to force myself to bed last night bc I know the nights of actual sleep while my parents have Wes are limited! This book is so good though!

Litsy FOMO- no way could I wait for the 600 people in front of me at the library. I. Am. Here. For. It.

My parents are taking munchkin the next three nights so we get a break and mom gets some time to read!

We are in it right now. Wes is still not sleeping in his bed and just endlessly screaming. We don‘t know what to do anymore.

We have one more Christmas to go, but here are my favorite bookish Christmas presents so far! I thought the bag would be bigger but it should still be ok for our library trips. The pouch is for my kindle to go in my purse bc I have a book cover on it and it gets a little banged up sometimes.

Wrong book right author. The first two books in this compilation were super good! I couldn‘t get into the last two. However, while the world building is excellent, the grammar and proofreading are atrocious.

Not as good as Saint but a nice return to the world. Ends on a cliffhanger and I‘m willing to see where it goes.

Quite enjoyable- fast paced and intriguing.

I wasn‘t seeing notifications and we‘re in toddler sleep hell at the moment.
1. Motorcycle club romance spicy
2. Yes
3. Just like magic, Spare

1. We have a deal that they come down New years weekend.
2. Snow is prettier

Congrats @wanderinglynn you‘re such an asset to this community! I‘d love to read Spare- thanks to @Kshakal for reminding me about it! #300kbirthdaygiveaway

Right author, wrong book. Hit me with your MC romance Recs! I stumbled across her on a fb ad, and while I was engaged in the story (I only downloaded a sample) the grammar and spelling is horrifying. I doubt a proofreader, let alone any kind of editor touched this book. So who are your MC romance authors Litsy?

What do you do on shitty weeks? Listen to Potter at bed and on your commute, stream it while you work from homeπŸ˜‚ Christmas night left much to be desired and it has gone down from there. Kiddo is having the worst week in the history of ever πŸ˜‚πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ hoping switching to the big boy bed Sunday helps!

Parents: Wes climbed out of his crib last night πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈso we need to switch beds and toddler proof the room. We have two of the short bookcases in his room and no option to relocate them. One I can anchor one I can‘t. Is this a good alternative? What did you do for your book loving toddlers?
