Once again this Author brings me all the feels. I highly enjoyed this sequel! So much was relevant to today‘s global issues about hate and non- acceptance (which yes, was their point). However , there were some moments that I had to go back and listen to again , just to sit in the phrasing. Klune makes people think, speaks out and brings issues of hate in this world center stage while still bringing joy and beauty

I can‘t even handle how beautiful these edges are!

Thank you so much @BeeMagical I adore everything. My son has already eaten most of the Jellybeans :) Can‘t wait to read all of these.

Thank you
@wanderinglynn for hosting the #HHS again

Received my #HHS24 swap today! Looking forward to Wednesday when I get to open it!
@wanderinglynn

I believe it is from @BeeMagical

My #HHS24 swap package is all done and was mailed out today to its destination 🎃👻💀
@wanderinglynn

Finished TJ Klune‘s Green Creek Series! I adored these so much. This writer gives me all the feels! I laughed , I cried and everything else in between! I am sad to say goodbye to this characters.

Anyone else love it when your pet loves to snuggle your books?

Although he is about to get super grumpy at me, because I am about to take his pillow away to start reading. 🤣

Wow, what a wonderful package to come home to after being away for work!! Thank you soooooo much @MittenGirlPeach you spoiled me! I can not wait to read these books . This is a lovely seaside #staycationswap

The candle smells divine and I love wooden wick candles . Cracked open the bags of caramels already and ate too many at once 🤣

Everything is wonderful 💕🤩 Thank you so much!

@Chrissyreadit thank you for cohosting

@MittenGirlPeach I have confirmation it has arrived !!!

Yay! @Chrissyreadit #staycationswap

I forgot to take a picture of the #staycationintime swap package . So here is a picture of the post office that I mailed it from instead.

@MittenGirlPeach 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 I hope this gets to you. When mailing it the zip code I had for you couldn‘t be found and they put a different one on it that matched the address 🤷🏻‍♀️in their system.

@Chrissyreadit

June has been a Wolf month. I didn‘t intentionally pick that theme but it just kind worked out that way. So why not end with with one more wolf pick 🤣🐺

Yay! It‘s Staycation time! Sign up link ⬇️

Finally picking up a book again after two very busy weeks. Its feels like forever since I have had time to read!

Well it‘s that time of year again! It‘s SNAP season. T -2 days until opening night. I set my book down tonight and was like see you on the other side. Most likely no reading for me until next week! Time to let my alter ego stage persona out and raise hopefully a shit ton of money for animal welfare. You can check out what we do at Snapburlesque.com.
SNAP weekend is my most favourite time of year!

This one is up next.

Sometimes you need a little reminder! Yassss Queen, I am talking to you!

Yup… those are me. My stage persona now has merch! It was a weird thing when these arrived . However, I was reminded by some other Queens that I spend my life making others own their queendom, so I best be doing the same! 33 days until show time!

Sometimes you just need the reminder 🤣

I am a day late as it is Friday but here are my three!
1) Stiff- Mary Roach
2)Born a Crime - Trevor Noah
3)Forest Bathing - Dr. Quinn Li

@dabbe

Thanks for the tag @ShelleyBooksie

You know what is nice about traveling for work with another reader! We are both tucked into bed and enjoying our books. No pressure to go out and entertain ourselves. All we need is some good take out, a comfy beds and our books!

@ShelleyBooksie is a great travel companion

Yardy definitely feels like he is the new boss of the house and has decided that all books should be chew toys!!! Him and I have very different opinions on that! Kittens are so naughty!!!

This was recommend by a friend. So yup, I read it ! It was decent romance with spice ! I give it a 3 and a half 🥛rating!

The ocean and all that lives in its depths is so fascinating!

This author cracks open my heart every time!! I just finished listening to this one and just spent the last 10 mins sobbing in the mall parking lot ….lol

Something about their books that just works so well in audio format! Moving on to “The lightning struck heart” now…. Let‘s see if this next one also makes me ugly cry in parking lots 😂

I guess my last post was a lie. I managed to read one more before the year end. Might as well finish off the year with some Yuletide “cheer” !

Just finished this cute manga. It was my 100th read for 2023 and probably the last one I will complete for the year, as the next three days we are going on a New Year‘s family mini vacation.

My son got both this book and the ramen ornament for Christmas.

Meet Yardy , the three legged adventure cat and my newest reading buddy! He says Merry Christmas everyone!

My son named him Yardy because a there are 3 feet in a yard!

@thebacklistbook thank you for the great book and yummy treat. Once my son sees the caramels they won‘t last long. I will need to hide a few for myself!

@MaleficentBookDragon

Thank you @thebacklistbook I am excited to get started on this book! Not going to lie it was very tempting to also open the other packages … but I didn‘t! I behaved myself. 😜

Not sure how a bunch of robots made me so emotional, but they did. This is my second book by TK Klune and I need to read as many of their works as possible I think. Definitely becoming a new favourite author for me.

Still curled up sick in bed with tissue and hot water bottle but progress has been made. I can actually stay awake long enough to read. So starting this one which is one of the November roles for #roll100.

@PuddleJumper I can‘t believe it‘s November and the year is almost over. I thank you for hosting this event as it had helped me clear a bunch from my TBR list & prevented me from buying more books ( I did by some , but not nearly as much🤣)

Thank goodness for audio books. The plague has hit my house and I am so sick that even lifting a book is too much effort. Listening to the tagged book in-between times that I am not knocked out sleeping. Lol, I think I have started the same chapter over at least 3 times as I fell asleep 🤒🤧🤢 Audio book, Jello(the only thing I can swallow) and strong meds are getting me through.

@Chrissyreadit I love my #nightmaremakerswap!! These are so beautiful, you said you are not artistic but …these are so fun and beautiful. I wanted to to take a million pictures to post all the details of these. Amazing! Thank you so much. I am looking forward to the book and putting together the bookstore!

@LibrarianRyan for hosting!

@CuriousG I love it all. Thanks for the bonus book! I can‘t wait to read all of these. So much fun. The caramels will not last long. Thanks you so much!

#hauntedhallowsswap @wanderinglynn thanks for hosting

It‘s kind hard to read your book when it‘s being used as a pillow! 🐈😴

Where did the year go? I can‘t believe I just pulled NOVEMBER‘s #roll100 picks off the shelf.

@PuddleJumper

I love and hate this book! Loved the unique take on this trope but I thought it was a one off and now I hate it because I have to wait for the next in the series!! Argh!

I love October! I might have a fall/Halloween shirt for everyday of the month 🎃🤣👻

#athingaday has come to an end. Last week the remaining packages were sent. Be on the look out @hannah-leeloo @Morr_Books @MaGoose @emz711 @Jjaxn95 @Cupcake12 @TheBookHippie

 @wanderinglynn @CuriousG

Thanks @Blerdgal_Fenix I got that great package you sent. Everything is lovely! I love the tote bag!!!!! Can‘t wait to start these books.

@Bookgoil @Deblovestoread

Current work read! Change management is a big part of job.

Was able to get some #athingday out between meetings today.
@Quirkybookworm @AsYouWish @Daisey @Bookpearl your packages are on the way.

Hurricane Lee is hitting our area and has knocked out our power. So it was a great time to start wrapping up my #hauntedhallowsswap. I think I enjoy the wrapping even more then the shopping! It‘s all packed up and ready to go to the mail next week.
@wanderinglynn

I stopped to mail #athingaday packages for yesterday and today by a post office right by a Starbucks. So I am completely telling my husband that it is 100% Litsy‘s fault that I am bringing home yet another cup and I can not be blamed for it. Lol

@Bklover and @BookwormAHN your packages are in the mail
