1) We got probably 6-8 between Thursday and Friday, and then another 3-4 between Saturday night and Sunday! And today is blue sky and sunny 🌞

2) I like to take a hot bath, or turn on the fireplace, get a warm beverage, put on some cozy socks and cuddle up under a blanket. I don‘t have a specific genre to read though. Whatever I‘m in the mood for!

3) Sending all the warmth and blessings!!

1) My wonderful baby girl was born 💜💜
2) I usually do a number goal, but this year I‘m gonna focus more on reading books I already own, rather than buying new books 😅😅
3) Nope!

Congrats on the milestone @robinb !!! Thanks for doing something so generous to celebrate!!

#AllTheRightStuffGiveaway

I think for me, I‘d have to choose A Dog‘s Purpose, Me Before You, and Outlander!!

robinb First of all, welcome to Litsy! And thanks for entering/sharing my giveaway! I haven‘t read any of these (I‘ve seen some of the Outlander series ❤️), and they all sound great! Thanks for the recs! 😊❤️ 7y
BryanaB @robinb Thank you! And thank you for opening your giveaway to all!! 😊 The Outlander TV show is great, and the books are, as usual, 10 times better. If you are a dog person, or really animals in general, A Dog‘s Purpose just gives you a different perspective. It made me appreciate my fur baby even more than I already did! Happy reading! I hope if you read any of these, that you enjoy them!! 😊😊 7y
robinb @BryanaB A Dog‘s Purpose sounds very unique and interesting. And Outlander, I hope to commit to reading that series very soon. Thanks again! 7y
BryanaB @robinb Of course!! 7y

Katehubb Thanks @BryanaB! 1. Jane Austen because she would have impeccable table manners. 2. 1776 because then I could see all of the founding fathers in person. 3. Mae Whitman. 4. @Samplergal Thanks for starting this @JenlovesJT47 #tuesdaytidbits (edited) 7y

This was my weekend project. This jar is now sitting on my shelves and it has all of my TBR books written on folded squares of paper. Next time I can‘t decide what to read, I‘m just going to pick one at random 😊😊

ofbooksandme Awesome idea! I think I might steal it 7y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I tried it and failed!!!! I would pick one and then say “hmmmm I‘m not in the mood for that one!” Lol 😂 Let me know how it works for you!!! 💕 7y
BryanaB @ofbooksandme Please do!! I‘ve never done anything like this, so I‘m hoping it at least gets me to read some of these books. Because what I didn‘t include in the initial post is that most of these TBRs, I already own 😂😂🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ 7y

BryanaB @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Hahaha I am so worried that will happen to me! But I‘m gonna try and stick to this as much as possible. We‘ll see what happens though 😂😂 7y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @BryanaB 🤞🏻🤞🏻☺️😉 7y
Purrfectpages I‘ve always wanted to do this, but I think I like to be in control too much lol 7y
BryanaB @Purrfectpages Hahaha yeah I‘m worried about that too. We‘ll see how it goes. I haven‘t used it yet though haha 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ 7y

👁Murder on the Orient Express - Was on my list but I bumped it because of the movie. That should count haha? 🤷‍♀️
👁Deadfall Hotel...Was a while ago. I don‘t remember much about it, other than not really liking it.
👁None, sadly.
👁I don‘t know if I have done this...I need to step up my game.

@CSeydel

CSeydel Totally counts! That‘s exactly what I did with the Dark Tower. 7y
BryanaB @CSeydel Yes!! That‘s what I was hoping to hear!! I just read The Gunslinger last year too...do they get better after the first book? I absolutely love Stephen King, and I‘ve heard so many great things about this series, but I struggled with the first book 😕 7y
CSeydel Haha ... so, ahem, confession, I struggled with the Gunslinger too. My husband owns the whole series so I was wanting to dive in, thinking, this is going to be great! Because I really feel SK is a talented writer. But The Drawing of the Three is still sitting on my TBR pile. I finished the Gunslinger and turned to my husband like, wtf did I just read?? (edited) 7y
See All 8 Comments
CSeydel I still want to read the rest of the series though ... maybe we need to organize a #buddyread to make us start 😂 7y
BryanaB @CSeydel Ah! So glad it‘s not just me. I have heard that the first book is boring, but it starts to pick up after that and is amazing. But when it‘s THAT boring I have a hard time wanting to pick up the next one in the series. I love SK, this one just didn‘t do it for me. 7y
BryanaB @CSeydel (Accidentally posted my last comment before I was done 😂)....Yes!! Maybe a #buddyread is EXACTLY what we need. To make each other push through 😂😂 7y
CSeydel Yeah it was beyond boring in my opinion. It was confusing and bizarre. I didn‘t feel any connection to the characters. (edited) 7y
BryanaB 100%. I felt lost most of the time and was confused why a book about a man walking through a desert was so great haha. I had NO connection to any characters- Granted there weren‘t many to choose from haha. 7y

🦄 Outlander....A) It‘s long as hell and B) I don‘t read a ton of romance, and definitely not much historical fiction, but this book/series is one of my favorites now.
🦄 The Devil in the White City...I love true crime, and H.H. Holmes is one of my faves, so I was super bummed when this book bored me to tears.
🦄 Are You There Vodka? It‘s Me, Chelsea...She‘s hilarious.
🦄 Not sure if I‘ve come across this book yet...

AshleyHoss820 Coloring soothes the soul! Everybody thought I was crazy in high school when I loved to color. Ha! My Dad STILL hangs stuff in his office that I color for him! No joke: I made a lamb for a college class (years ago) and my Dad put it up. This lady said, “Oh! That is so sweet! How old is your daughter?” And my dad looks her dead in the face and says, “Twenty-three.” 😂😂😂 Color all you want! Don‘t let the haters get you down! 😂🤣 (edited) 7y
BryanaB @AshleyHoss820 That‘s incredible! Your dad for the win! It is totally relaxing. Plus, I have these coloring books called The Beauty of Horror (1 & 2) and they are just great. Soothes my creepy, dark, soul 👌🤣🧛🏻‍♂️ (edited) 7y
AshleyHoss820 @BryanaB Well, I‘m gonna find those!! 🧠🧠🧟‍♀️🧟‍♀️ 7y
BryanaB @AshleyHoss820 Dooooo it. They are on Amazon! I believe the author/artist has two more coming out this year 😬😬 7y
