Packing for a work trip. Leave tomorrow and gone for 5 or 6 days. I know I will get through two of these but packed a third just in case.
Such a Fun Age is my last roll for #roll100 March.

Love it when my son reads me the bedtime story instead of the other way around. We both enjoyed this one.
It‘s Thursday not Wednesday, but I wasn‘t on Litsy yesterday so sharing today. Thanks for the tag @TheWolfbehindTheEyes

So many good ones β- but the best games are the imagination role playing games my 7 year old comes up with.
Current read - the tagged book
@Eggs
My favourite of the year so far! βοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈπ
When you computer decides to randomly run updates in the middle of your workdayβ¦ you do some work reading. I guess I am going fishing today. π§ π£
This book was a so-so for me. It wasn‘t bad , just found a it slow read and repetitive. It was another knocked off my TBR shelf thanks to #roll100
Seems appropriate to take its picture by the universe affirmation deck cards that I have suck to my headboard.
Thanks @PuddleJumper once again for the rolls this month β¦ moving on to the next one
Love it when @ShelleyBooksie leaves books on my desk at work. However , now I want to read instead of work!
Pulled the rolls off my shelf for March #roll100 picks. Just finishing up a read from February and then moving on to these.

Thank you so much @dabbe for this fantastic #LLWBS swap package. It is all wonderful. The happy pill is amazing!!!!
Thank to @Bookgoil and @Deblovestoread for organizing this swap!
I am absolutely in love with this edition. It is so beautiful!
Another thing we love in this house just as much as Dinosaurs is Ramen! I think I have the only seven year old that over the last few Christmases has asked Santa for his own ramen bowls, spoons and a ramen cookbook. As well as bubble tea cup, sushi making tools and supplies. So we have been enjoying reading this manga. Learning about different types of ramen as we read along. ππ±π£π§
This book was not what I was expecting. I didn‘t dislike it but feel the synopsis on the back led me to believe it would be more of a palaeontology adventure , but it was more Wild West focused.
And yes, those are a bunch of kids palaeontologist tools and fossils. My Litsy handle is DinoMom for a reason. ππ¦π¦
This was also the book for the last roll of the month for #roll100 hosted by @PuddleJumper
This sits in the middle of a pick and so-so for me. The only thing that didn‘t make it 100% pick for me was it didn‘t feel complete. I enjoyed the writing and the character development but just wanted more at the end. 3/5
Both My kid and I enjoyed this book. If your little likes mythical creatures then this is a nice little book. It‘s has colourful art and fun rhymes. It was fun listening to my little guy read this book to me at bedtime tonight.
Just finished the book The Ravens. It was the selection for the first roll for #roll100 of this month. hosted by @PuddleJumper . It was just okay for me and was a slow read , not sure due to the book or my mood this past week. (Insert tired working mom emoji here) . The tagged book is the selection for roll 2 this month. Another one that has been on my shelf for a long time :)
#litsylovewinterbluesswap arrived today. @dabbe
Can‘t wait until opening day!
@Bookgoil @Deblovestoread
Just pulled the 3 books for the February #roll100
Hosted by @PuddleJumper
Thanks PuddleJumper for helping me get through my very over stuffed TBR bookcase.
I ploughed through the January reads and ended up reading a bunch more on my shelf as well. I guess I should have participated in this sooner!!!! π€·π»ββοΈ
Just a few stories into this one. It‘s a weird book. However as stated before I like me some weird , so far I am enjoying it.
If someone asked me to describe these books , I would say that are like potato chips. You can‘t stop at just one! I munched through this delicious little snack of a series today. It‘s adorable, but doesn‘t shy away from hard topics.
I rarely listen to audiobooks, but the wonderful @DebbieGrillo recommended listening to this one at our last bookclub. She wasn‘t wrong! This book is so great in audio format. I would have enjoyed this book either way but listening to it brought all the feels. I laughed , I criedβ¦. This book is simple and layered all at the same time. It is the most joyful book I have βreadβ in a long time! 4/5 βΊοΈ
I love the steampunk look. I have watch movies with the steampunk theme, seen plays , and have had great conversations with people who live the steampunk lifestyle. However, this is going to be the first dive into the steampunk literary world. Love reading new-to-me genres.
Guess I won‘t be moving around to much so reading time it is!
Holiday decor all packed up in the bins, hubby on kid bedtime duty tonight so I get to curl up with the cat and book.
This book was the last roll for this months #roll100 hosted by @PuddleJumper
It had been on my shelf since last christmas. I am enjoying how the author is weaving together science fiction and traditional folklore in this tale.
This book is weird. I like weird.
I give it 3.5π½out of 5 π¦
Moving on to the next roll (#84) for #roll100 hosted by @PuddleJumper The first roll didn‘t go as planned. Oh, I read the book & then realized it‘s part of a series & it hooked me just enough to want to know more. So, I ordered the 2nd one! This challenge was suppose to help reduce my TBR not add to it! π€·π»ββοΈπ€£
I have loved Jeff Goldblum ever since I first saw him in βEarth Girls are Easyβ in the 80‘s.
Told myself that I was NOT going to buy any new books for myself β¦failed the first time I had to go to the book store π€¦π»ββοΈ
I love these two and can you blame me , it was 40% off!
First #listylove of 2023 all ready to head to the mailbox tomorrow! Here is to another great year of Litsy friends and great books!
This is my first year doing the #roll100 hosted by @PuddleJumper
I have SO many books on my TBR shelf and thought this would be a great way to get through some of them. I have friend staying with my right now so I gave her a bunch of stickers label 1 to 100 and told her to go randomly but them on my books. That way it will be even more of a surprise!
Here is the first book for the first roll #96
Thank you @FantasyChick for the #creepychristmas package. I am really looking forward to the book. The face masks definitely falls under creepy when you put them on. It made my skin feel lovely, but my husband said he couldn‘t even look at me and my son this morning when we had them on as he said he felt we looked like characters out of a horror film. Lol
We had a lot of laughs with them.
Thanks @teebe for hosting
Merry Everything and Happy Forever! Whatever you celebrate this time of year I hope it is filled with joy, family , friends and lots of great reads!
Here are the books that I got for Christmas and a super cute reading journal!
Starting this one today. Not very holiday but oh well.
This is what happens when someone gives you a gift certificate to book outlet and you hit up the clearance section. The boxes showed up at the door today and my hubby was like β¦ β please tell me those are books for other people and not youβ So I just walk past him , slap him on the butt and say βyou can just carry them up to my book case pleaseβ π€£ In fairness , there is 4 or 5 in there for my son, so not all for me.
When you finally get a chance to sit down and readβ¦ but your cat has other plans for you. Cuddle time it is , I guess . π€£
These are the most adorable characters! The story and message is so sweet and I love the art work. I hope a third one is coming.
Had bookclub tonight and had our Christmas gift exchange. My cat seems to like this one. Maybe if should sleep with one eye open tonight?
I am looking forward to reading this.
Someone gave me this book and I mean who wouldn‘t like a book about women who finds herself in some spicy scenarios with three Dino shifters! π€£
Co workers - βWhat are you wearing to the Christmas Party?β
Me:
Sent out my #creepychristmas package today. Forgot to snap a picture. So here is a picture of the Yule Cat instead.
@Tee
Thank you for all the birthday love , my Litsy friends. You all know how to make someone feel loved!
Well, it‘s travel day. Heading back home. Didn‘t even open the book I brought with me as I was so busy. Maybe on the plane home, however I think much sleeping will be happening , since we started out traveling day 1:50am ! So proud of the team and what they accomplished. End my trip with a permanent souvenir of the adventure.
Last surgery day today! Todays total 98! Grand total 447! In four days! It was long days and hard work! But now we celebrate!!!!!!! A night of great food , great local company and even better drinks ! I am hot and sweaty but dancing the night away. May have many shots of what‘s in the bottle as well. One more day of play tomorrow and then heading home.
Today we did 79 more spay/neuters. Had a visit to the sloth institute of Costa Rica. Followed by dinner on top of hill overlooking a beautiful sunset. My meal was so delicious! Grilled watermelon steak with seaweed,sesame seed and soy sauce marinade.
This trip has been so jammed packed I have not had time to read but today was day off from surgery (back at it tomorrow) so we played tourist and spent the day at the national park and saw some amazing plant and animal life. My favourite were the Leaf Cutter Ants, I could have watched them for hours. However the sloths were pretty cool to see. This baby one was so freaking cute!
Day two of surgery , we did 130 spay and neuters. Plus look at this cute little guy that visited me today.
One of tiny patients today. First day and 134 animals had surgery. The day was long, the weather was humid and wet. Now we are off to have supper and maybe a drink π! It will be an early rise again tomorrow to do it all again!
Thank so much @Chrissyreadit for the most glorious surprise in my mail box this morning! Everything is so perfect! I feel the love and intention on this box. Thank you for your friendship. #grateful
Thank you so much @BeeMagical ! You spoiled me! I can‘t wait to read all of these books! Brought Beetle & the hallowbones to work with me today to read at lunch! I love the it all. Those matcha gummies are so good! I was also almost out of matcha tea so it‘s great timing! So much fun stuff! Did you make the keychain? It‘s gorgeous!
