Woo Hoo!
I‘m about a third of the way through this and it‘s really packing a punch. Lots to think about.
“There is incredible love in every word, as there must‘ve been in every movement of her hands, every nail she hammered. I am taken from this bleak and stormy Island to live for an afternoon among her snow gums, I imagine myself waking to the morning fog and the sun rising over the hills, the glorious view from her bedroom, and before I know it, I am in her bed, and then, accidentally, she is in this bed beside me.”
pickI read this a few months ago, but I hope many more people pick it up now. Recommend. 🇺🇦
pickThis was a fun read. Lucy is at a not-so-great post in life and estranged from her only relative, a reclusive film star. She accepts a temporary job as a Bearer of Bad News, whose job description is not clearly defined. What results is a big adventure and (my favorite part) a look back in time at WWII Berlin and lost family treasure. It is light but also deals with some heavy topics. Recommend! Coming in late April.
Look at Barnes & Noble with the sassy social media! 🤣 Also, can totally relate to getting to the good part way too late in the evening.
I was influenced into buying the TikTok bookshelf. I love it! I‘m thankful my husband helped me (read: did it himself) put it together because it was complex. Thinking about getting another….its so nice that it doesn‘t have to go against a wall.
I am a book whore. I work at B&N and bring home something ALMOST EVERY SHIFT. It‘s a problem (but is it?). Here‘s today‘s haul, one of them is an ARC.
Pictures of my new bookshelf coming in a moment!
Worked at the bookstore all day, selling this hot title and now I‘m finally at home with it my own hands, ready to dig in!
Annual Christmas book stack photo! Touched and impressed that my husband hunted down some #artheist books that I haven‘t read or even heard of. So excited to dig in. 💛📚
Christmas book score! I love art heist/discovery/restitution stories.
Happy #Jolaflokabod and Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah and Kwanza or whatever you may or may not celebrate! Thank you @Blerdgal_Fenix for my gift! This has been on my TBR list for years and now I will finally have it in hand and in my stack. 🎄🎁⭐️💛
I love this tradition, @MaleficentBookDragon 💛

Starting these today. I‘ll read the first chapter of each and see which pulls me in first.
Guess who got her hot little hands on an #ARC of Elin‘s last book (sob)?! Soooooo excited. I‘ll be up all night reading.
“The Ordinary Man has managed something extraordinary.” 💛 This touched me.
pickWow. Fantasy is not my top genre, but I needed to know what all the fuss was about. And now I have drank the Kool-Aid. These are good. Just finished book 2 and I‘m starting book 3 immediately. My apologies to all of the books on my to be read pile. 😂
Merry Christmas and Happy #JolabokaflodSwap! Thank you @jdiehr for the awesome book and chocolate! And thanks to @MaleficentBookDragon for hosting this lovely Litsy tradition. 💛🎄🍾⭐️📚

*sigh of contentment*
pickThis was exactly what I needed today! Got it at the library at 3-ish this afternoon and just finished it at 11:15!
Sweet, simple, and satisfying. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
pickRecommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I never knew that I loved Nathaniel Hawthorne.

bailedI hate to not finish a book, but I am bailing on this one. I don‘t see why there‘s a buzz about it. Really boring and nothing compelling me to go on. 👎🏻
Don‘t miss the fantastic #JolabokaflodSwap, organized by @MaleficentBookDragon ⭐️🎅🏼🧑🏼🎄
Sign ups are open until Nov. 19!

I‘ve been devouring the books on my iPad that I have from the library but decided that it‘s time to switch to a paper book while on vacation. Easier reading on the beach. I‘ve had this on my shelf for a while but never realized it was set in Positano which is one of my favorite destinations.
pickI'm going to give this ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️, but not because I loved it. I admire the story this author crafted and it upset me SO MUCH.

pickI was SO excited when I discovered a new book was coming from Taylor Jenkins Reid. Then, when I saw the title, I couldn't place Carrie Soto in my recollection for previous novels. It turns out that she was only a mention and a side character in “Malibu.“ But she becomes a full and memorable character quickly.
