pickThe characters in this book were so real. I didn‘t like their personalities a whole lot per say, but they were written well. The author does a great job staying neutral between the conflict of the characters and the story was well written. Extremely thought provoking & a story that needed telling. Great book club choice. #lmpbc #litsybookclubs
Got in the 3rd book for the #lmpbc !! Excited to start this one tomorrow! @KisforKechell @jillannjohn @ReviewsbytheMrs
Eeek it has arrriivvveeeddd!
pickAsides from the atrocious grammar mistakes (like did you even reread the book once you finished Yormark?!), this was actually a great story! Being only 220 pages, it was a quick, but very action filled novel. About a man who‘s wife is abducted, & he is hell bent on finding her. But, what he isn‘t prepared for is an alternate world that Mirrors ours, which is systematically kidnapping ppl #lmpbc
pickIt‘s over 😭. Oh but it was beautiful!! Even the times where the author ripped my heart out only to return it in parts and greatly bruised. This is the end of The Rebel of the Sands trilogy & it was epically done. Highly recommend the series. Often described as Arabian nights + Wild West. Action packed, love, in depth secondary characters, magic, heartbreak, mystery, surprise, and more. If you haven‘t read this series, go do it ❤️
Have my office and first bookshelf set up at the new house!!! We will have several bookshelves all throughout! So excited to move in next weekend 😍
Photo of my hubbys bedside table!! He‘s never been a big reader, but I‘ve rubbed off on him a bit!!! 😍😝. Sports & politics are his favorites 🤷🏻♀️ I‘m more of a fantasy/fiction girl myself but hey, to each their own! Does your significant other enjoy reading? #shelfie #qotd
Poolside reading while the kiddo swims! About to wrap up Girl With a Pearl Earring and plan to start on the tagged book next!! Happy Easter, April Fools Day, & Happy birthday to the Weasley twins 😉🎉🐣🐇🌴
Evening reading 😍. Too chilly to swim but nice enough to enjoy the view! What‘s everyone else currently reading??
Help you guys! What book should I read next?? I‘m coming off a #bookhangover from the tagged series above! Loved it and need to refill that void with an epic follow up
Happy St. Pattys Day fellow littens! Celebrating this Irish holiday, which is also my 6 year anniversary in some good ole Florida sunshine with a great book in my hand 😍🍀🌈🍀❤️💚❤️💚. How are you all celebrating today?
bailedSo I have such a hard time bailing on books!! I never want to give up hope....BUT I have about 15 other awesome books on my bookshelf, so after 4 chapters and 60 pages in... this book just isn‘t for me. Too #chicklit for my personal tastes. I need more drama and adventure 🙃. But if you do like books about friendship and those type of storylines this one was highly quotable!
Omg I just saw this on FB! Guess what‘s going on our DIY list for the new home?!?! Hope to close and move in at the end of the month 😍
Hahaha this cracked me up! How are your books coming fellow Mark Up/Book Club readers? #lmpbc @ReviewsbytheMrs @KisforKechell @jillannjohn #litsybookclubs #markup
so-soI know I know, I‘m probably in the minority here. But this book didn‘t quite sweep me away...
@Sills thank you so much for my #cupidgoespostal package!! It arrived!! I love it all so so so much!! Thank you for all ur thoughtfulness ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ #cgp #litsyfriends
This has been a whirlwind week! House shopping & now going thru the 1,000 hoops to finalize our home buy! Which includes working overtime hours 😬. & my library holds (that I‘ve been in line forever for) all become available in the same week! I need more hrs in the day! & let‘s not forget a stack of hardbacks w/ due dates approaching #readerproblems Ok y‘all, if I can only pick 1 audio which should I pick?! (Exclude Scarlet bc it‘s almost ✅)
Dear stalker, my package *may* be here but my apartment office was terrible today and every time I went to check they had “closed” the office for a meeting 😭. I‘ll try again tomorrow!!
Today marks the 1year anniversary of our adoption day! & just had to share that with all my littens 💕. Reading has been an integral part of mine and Ts bonding since the day he moved in. We truly connect any time we read together. We are always reading 2books, one he reads to me & another I read to him. I‘m so thankful for his love for stories and for the tool books play in our connection to one another ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Started this audiobook this morning on my drive, but thinking about switching to the print version. The narrator‘s voice/reading style just isn‘t clicking with me or the story for some reason. Have u ever quit an audio bc of the narrator?
This is just a small bit of how ridiculous my kitty is during my #audiopuzzling hahaha!!! #catsoflitsy
Doing some #audiopuzzling ! I really enjoy the narrator‘s accent of this book! The storyline is moving a little slow for my liking, but hope to see some unexpected twists turn up soon! #audiobook #booklovers
I apparently won this book and didn‘t even know it! Talk about #happymail !!! #arc #booksof2018 #booklovers
“A story can tell the truth...but a story can also lie. Stories can bend and twist and obfuscate. Controlling stories is power indeed. “
so-soI liked the premise of this world & the characters are fun. But I felt like the authors foreshadowing was a bit over kill & I guessed all the plot twists early on. In fact I knew the end of the book cliffhanger almost halfway through 😬👎. I may try one more book in the series, but if it‘s just as predictable I‘ll prolly move on to other series. Any Lunar Chronicles fans out there with feedback? #bookreview #ya #lunarchronicles #audiobook
Kitty snuggles!! #catsoflitsy #readingbuddy #booksandcats #saycheese
Library delivery today!!! Woot woot! #imayhaveaproblem #bookhaul #litsyloveslibraries #libraryhaul #imspoiled
pickJust finished this read with my 9 yo kiddo. He wasn‘t a huge fan, but I think it was mostly bc the storyline was a bit dense for his attention span prior to bedtime lol! & altering perspectives confused him a little. However it‘s a definite pick for me! The writing felt poetic (especially as a #readaloud), and I enjoyed the magical world! #raisingreaders #fantasy #litsyreview #prettycovers
I blame @sammisho for inspiring this indulgent activity 😛 🍪!! #blameitonlitsy #litsybakingparty #booksandcookies

Latest #bookhaul!!! I‘m itching for our libraries winter sale next weekend, but picked these up today! And some of these just may be for my #secretvalentine!
Started this #graphicnovel last night! This page today has had me rolling 😂!!! Got this gem from my #secretasantagoespostal !!
pickFinished this short prequel around the Three Dark Crown series. I loved how it cleared up a lingering question regarding Katharine‘s gifts in the opening pages! Overall the story was insightful tho it left me wanting much more!
pickMilk & Honey still takes the lead in my heart but I still very much enjoyed Rupis latest work! This poem made me think of Litsy 😍 #bookreview #poetry
Home page 68 #rawbeauty #beautifullywritten #poetry. (I made my hubs mad by reading him some before prepping him on Rupi Kaur‘s style, lol whoops. He doesn‘t like sad topics). Ahh but this one was so beautiful ❤️❤️❤️❤️
pickWow. You all were right, I did finish this book the same day I started it! Extremely well written and unpredictable, my heart aches for all the losses the characters endured. This is one of those stories that stay with you for a while. #bookreview #toughtopicstoread #worthit #quickread
One up side to having to flu...is that I‘m definitely getting ahead on my 2018 reading challenge! 3 📚 finished!! 😷🤒 Starting this book today, any of my Litten friends read it?
so-soAs w/ most series, Book1 was more favored in my opinion. The meat of this book took me a while to get thru &picked up towards the end. I loved Jin &Amani‘s relationship in Rebel of the Sands, but Traitor to the Throne left me wanting. I will say the ending was a shocker & left me💔! I think the last few chapters were the best of the entire book. Which leaves me hopeful that Book3 will be better. Who else has read this series? Thoughts? #bookreview
pickI listened to the audio version of this book and really enjoyed the full cast of narrators. I typically don't enjoy books with so many different perspectives and ones that lack a central climax, but this book surprised me! It takes place in 1970s Alaska, and tells the stories of local youth and their lives. Overall I found it to be a refreshing read. #historicalfiction #prettycovers #winterreads #audiobook
Happy new year littens! My little family brought in 2018 at Disney world and I got to spend reading time while waiting in line woohoo! Here‘s to a new year of books and family time! Stay safe everyone!

pickI read this through the #serialreader app for some holiday cheer. Loved the short stories and poems, but the story of the 7 Santas was my absolute favorite!!! 😍❤️ #winterreads #christmasbooks #holidaycheer
