This has been one long stress filled day. It‘s midnight and I am taking my few minutes for pleasure reading when I realized this entire moment was brought to me by #litsy- the book is part of #cbbc @BookwormAHN , the book sleeve I‘m using made by @BethM I believe and the bookmark from a swap but I can‘t remember which one....
pickI liked this book, but I did not love it. It was fun, character driven, almost 100% female, LGBTQ representation, and a fun genre crossing premise of mystery and sci fi elements. I did not love how some things were over simplified or “given” to work in the story. @cobwebmoth this will be heading back to you in next couple days. I really enjoyed this #LMPBC group and appreciated reading with all of you!
I asked my niece to pick out a scary movie to watch together....it was. But seriously, I need some good Halloween movies to watch- besides Hocus Pocus and Practical Magic, not Saw or torture themed. Please and Thank-you.
#gettingtoknowyou great idea @JoScho
Hope New Litsy Users will join!

💜I love when a book is recommended so it was a play on people giving me a book and telling me to read it.
My dear friend since high school just published this book! She is incredibly talented. If anyone is interested the link is https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1641526424/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0
In addition, she has an amazing Instagram https://instagram.com/ceci_leibovitz?igshid=hl97gl7bqx61
I can‘t wait to get this and try it out!
pickI loved Wacky Wednesday! These are the books I read for the #BBRC easy reader section. Working on middle grade now!
1. Because I can create so much more with all those words, maps, phrases, ideas, names, etc...
2. Depends on how cold it is. I love socks when I‘m cold.
3. Leadville Co 10,152 feet. I went sledding in June (25 years ago)!
4. Hmmm....sandwich bread? (I do not eat meat, and dislike dairy too)
5. Not sure yet.
#friyayintro
pickA funny short story that reminded me of The Emperors New Clothes. It was a perfect length to read when I‘m full to distraction with other thoughts.
My Harry Potter shelf. I just need bookends. My husband has the original US books I bought upon release (except for Sorcerer Stone) I cant wait until he retires and all my books are in one house again! ( and possibly my husband too). Now to find appropriate bookends.
I know it‘s Thursday... but since @Gissy tagged me
1. I do not have one but I have a list I would like to watch! I did love Scream and Lost Boys.
2. I love the families I get to work with. My job is hard but I love it.
3. Probably this one, but it‘s a close tie with Early Intervention and Teaching.
4. If anyone still wants to play....
@BookwormAHN box 1 of 2?!?!?? How lucky am I? I‘m so excited for #allhallowsreadswap 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
@Cinfhen @4thhouseontheleft @BarbaraTheBibliophage I think a approached the #booked2019 challenge in a very haphazard way. When I look at my Goodreads challenge I realized I had books to fit prompts if I looked at it as a whole- instead of season. So I may finish it yet!
@LibrarianRyan I‘m working on organizing and prepping these books- but am not sure about some of the categories. Maybe I‘m thinking too hard about them? 😘 I‘m taking advantage of my week between classes! #bbrc
Octavian waited until my head was turned to begin playing with my centerpiece. I have a feeling my zen graveyard is not safe either. Thankyou @Sace the fruits of your gift card have arrived!
@cobwebmoth starting this tonight. Prepared to take notes. This is what it feels like to have time to read and no assignments due....(until Wed.) #lmpbc
#BFCR4 check in. In general I am moving a little more every day- especially non work days. Food prep is hard!
Congratulations @MatchlessMarie Our spooky traditions include giving everyone a book for All Hallows‘ Read when they wake up on the 31st, and going to Shepherdstown where the streets are closed off, the businesses open for all Ages trick or treat and EVERYONE is in costume- and there are moments of dancing in the street to Time Warp #spooky50k
@RestlessFickleBookHoarder I hope I‘m not to late to enter your #giveawaykerfuffle
Cockamamie makes me laugh whenever it comes up! Can you imagine a teacher using this in a room of middle schoolers? Congrats on passing 90K!

“The Saloon, like every other room in Arnside House, was large and lofty, and had been furnished, possibly some twenty years earlier, in what had then been the style of elegance.”
“Jack dreaded family gatherings.”
#firstlinefridays Thanks for the tag @AmyG

@ReadingEnvy @Reggie I really enjoyed the podcast!!! Anyone interested go check out their pages for the link!
Taking a brief break from paper writing. I‘m trying to decrease my ridiculous TBR on Litsy but the starting over every time a delete a book will make it a very long process. What are your TBR #‘s?
I‘m procrastinating badly.... a ten page paper due at midnight. My brain is just so tired today to think about serious stuff is hard. Litsy is so easy to prefer...
Some considerations for historical fiction. #lmpbc
#BFCR4 my goals, that will change frequently! @jenniferw88 I‘m still happy to do checking and encouragement with you if you want to continue! I feel so lucky to be part of a bfc tribe ❤️😘 @Crazeedi @MicrobeMom @Mitch @Blaire and getting to also team with @audraelizabeth @janeycanuck and @Meaw_catlady Here‘s to a great 6 weeks!
@BethM Thank You!!! These goodies are perfect! I‘m always surprised by how quickly a month can go by!!! I‘ve loved doing #LMPBC with all of you! Is anyone doing the next round? I hesitated but saw a group specifically for historical fiction and that‘s my other favorite genre.... @cobwebmoth @collegecatlady
I consider myself so lucky to have found so many amazing friends on Litsy! Thank you Elizabeth for this incredibly generous and thoughtful package. I‘m absolutely in love with every item! 😘😘😘😘

Post 2- #screamathonswap @AmyG I love the magnets! The bookmark is amazing! The coffee and tea- all of it!
It‘s beginning to look a lot like Halloween! Happy #screamathonswap opening day! Thank you @AmyG !! I love the pillow! The scarf will be used as my Halloween table covering! And the books are perfect choices!

The environment is always on my mind- ask my kids! I became a vegetarian in 1989 for environmental reasons. Greta Thunberg is a hero. When @Booksnchill just recommended the tagged book I thought I‘d put together my environmental TBR and share it - has anyone read these? Other recommendations? #loveyourmotherearth #thereisnoplanetB
pickA quick read, historical mystery. A midwife in NYC circa 1880‘s -I enjoyed it and could not put it down tonight until I finished it.
Close up of my notebook, socks, shawl and manicure Fox from my #cozyswap🧡💛🧡💛 @Avanders I am also crazy excited about the pistachios! I can eat them on a Keto diet!!!!!!!!!! Thank you so much for everything!
I am starting a cozy shelf thanks to @Avanders generosity and kindness with the #cozyswap! This will surely keep me in comfort reads while I finish my classes❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I am floored! And so excited! But this was not all!!!!
