#GratefulReads #BeenOnYourTBRTooLong This has been on my bookshelf for years, and I'm not sure why I've never read it. I'm going to put it on my 2020 TBR list!

In Dubious Battle is about activists trying to get laborers to strike in order to earn fair wages in better working conditions. #ReadingThroughTheYears192021 #1936

I definitely preferred the stories that included Jeeves much more than the other stories, but they were all fun to read.

Told through her notebooks, this is the story of Lilli de Jong, an unwed mother in the 1880's. Knowing her Quaker family and community would shun her because of her circumstances, she set out to forge her own way and to try to make it on her own with her baby.

@MegReads @sblbooks I couldn't stop reading, and just finished the book! I'm looking forward to our discussion of it next weekend! #LilliRead

My combined time for Friday & Saturday was a little over 11 hours, and then accidentally hit the reset button on my timer. 😂 I read for 5:35 minutes today, then went to a fundraising event for the Ronald McDonald House, and when I got back home and checked my timer, it had reset itself again. 🤣 I really enjoyed #LitsyPartyOfOne #24b4Monday #MrBook1InAMillion, though!

*sigh* So, I just finished 11 hours of reading for the #LitsyPartyOfOne #24b4Monday #MrBook1InAMillion readathon, and as I stopped the stop watch I accidentally hit the reset button at the same time. 😂😭😂

I'm not sure why I set this one aside last week- it's so good!

I took a break to watch football and write a few #LitsyLove letters, and now it's time to get back to reading!

I love a good mystery! I'm not sure how I've never read any Agatha Christie before!? #ReadingThroughTheYears192021 #1923

I'm not a huge fan of short stories, but I like Stephen King, so I thought I'd read this collection. Some of the stories were really great, some of them were pretty good, and some of them just weren't. The Mist was absolutely my favorite of all the stories! #ReadingThroughTheYears192021 #1985

#GratefulReads This was a really interesting #nonfiction book about Rudy Kurniawan and his forgery of rare and vintage wines.
@Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @OriginalCyn620

I read this a very long time ago in high school, so I decided to reread it for my goal of #ReadingClassicsIn2019. Written by Voltaire, a French philosopher of The Age of Enlightenment, Candide is based on Voltaire's beliefs in reason and freedom of thought.

#GratefulReads This book with #Under250Pages is on my bookshelf and it looks really good! I need to read it soon!

Furiously happy
