I was going to wait and read this for April‘s #AuthorAMonth but I waited almost 5 months for this audio hold from the library so here goes.

Made a quick run to B&N for Jane Harper‘s newest. And walked out with two more. It‘s a requirement, right?

My daughter and her cat MyCat wanted to be in the pic. #cuties

@THill

I think reading the book instead of listening to the audio would have made all the difference. I did not enjoy the narration and felt lost the entire story. I‘m not even sure what happened in any comprehensive way. Was humanity saved or destroyed? I‘m not really sure.

So, I know I said I was going to read the Ann Patchett next but…

#itsabouttime

I‘m only 10% into The Stone Sky but this hold just came in and I don‘t want to wait.

❤️AnnPatchett

Saturday morning looks just like Friday night but with coffee.

#dogsoflitsy

Starting the last book in The Broken Earth trilogy.

Short book with a big punch. There are a lot of themes to consider in this novella. It‘s depressing and bleak and tragic. Definitely not for everyone, but I like Steinbeck a lot because his writing gives me perspective.

@Soubhiville

Starting a new audiobook while working on a Sunday hoping I‘ll be home in time to watch the NCAA Women‘s Big Ten Tournament final.

#oniowa #gohawks

Just going to start with the one on the top 📚

#tbr

A book I didn‘t want to be over but couldn‘t wait for the end. My second favorite by this author.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Not sure where this is going yet but it‘s giving me M3GAN vibes. Sort of.

Hi there.

Happy Saturday.

#dogsoflitsy #dogandabook #saturdaystandard

I‘ve barely started this but I like it so far.

Just finished a reread of Malibu Rising for #AuthorAMonth. Still working on the print version of Carrie Soto Is Back but it‘s slower going.

I‘m sort of underwhelmed by TJR novels but this is my favorite of the three I‘ve read.

@Soubhiville

Finally! I placed this on hold on December 3rd!!

Clearly, we have different priorities.

Jeremy Irons‘ voice is so good and adds a whole other layer to this book.

Haven‘t met an Emily St. John Mandel I didn‘t like.

#saturdaynight

Starting next on audio.

Plan for today: #audiocleaning

Starting book #2 in the Andrea Oliver series.

One of my favorite authors read by one of my favorite audiobook narrators.

There is a lot to process in this short follow-up to The Passenger. It‘s dense yet it didn‘t feel altogether complete to me. Still, a pick.

The narration was so good and I think I enjoyed the book more because of it.

The plot twist seemed really predictable but there I was with a *gasp* anyway. The ending faltered but overall I really liked this.

I got a little lost in The Passengers and I think it was because I was so intrigued with Western but faltered with Alicia.

The 2nd book tells Alicia‘s story and I hope it draws me in.

Thank you so much @Soubhiville for your generosity and the wonderful 2022 #AuthorAMonth surprises from the random drawing. I was not expecting four books!

I have not only not read any of these books but have not read any of these authors, either. Looking forward to 2023 #AAM

#grateful #happy #reader

A week off Litsy for a trade show in Las Vegas but things are back to normal now.

#sundaymorningstandard #dogsoflitsy

Suspense ✔️
Unreliable narrator ✔️
Murder mystery ✔️

I‘m in!

Starting my January #AuthorAMonth pick. I‘m looking forward to reading this new-to-me author.

@Soubhiville

Book 1 of 2023 complete. I‘m not quite ready to dive into book 2 in the series. I wasn‘t super into this one and need to think on it a bit first.

In anticipation of the 02/2023 release of M. Night Shyamalan‘s movie adaptation, we‘ll be starting this this weekend.

#dogsoflitsy

7% into the audio and I‘m already confused. I love, and I hate, Cormac McCarthy. We‘ll see where this one takes me.

Also, I didn‘t know there was a sequel.

It took me a while to warm up to A Man Called Ove and it‘s the same with this one. Hoping it pulls me in soon.

1. Hot Apple Cider
2. All I Want For Christmas Is You

His side. Her side. And the truth. Diving in.

Starting my second Fredrik Backman read by one of my favorite audio narrators. 🤍

I had a really hard time following this. The premise seems interesting but I just couldn‘t connect the story.

#AuthorAMonth

@Soubhiville

Is this Ruth Ware‘s best yet? Because, 25 weeks??

And just like that, it‘s Saturday again. 🤍

#dogsoflitsy #saturdaystandard

Sweet somethings from my two favorite people for another trip around the Sun. I have so much to be thankful for and celebrate and this Litsy community is surely among them. Thank you for the birthday wishes.

At 17 hours, it‘s gonna be a ride.

Coffee ✔️

BuzzFeed says this is one of the 16 books everyone should read by the time they‘re 30. Since I‘m well overdue, here‘s me playing catch up. 😂😂

(Also, anyone else really dislike book covers based on the movie/tv adaptation?)

A solid “meh.” This is my second Silvia Moreno-Garcia and I preferred Mexican Gothic though not by much. They both stayed just on the periphery of my interest.

#AuthorAMonth @Soubhiville

It‘s always me me me. Typical. 😂😂😂

My hold finally came in so now I can finish November with my #AuthorAMonth book. Yay!

@Soubhiville

If I have to work on a Sunday, at least I have the company of a book. 📖

Looks like a perfect Saturday morning to me.

I don‘t know anything about this one but the title sounds intriguing.

A little audio to get me through working on a Sunday. I‘m having a hard time getting into this one, though. The audio is a little flat for me. The story feels like it‘s just on the edge of something but the audio isn‘t quite getting it there.
