My favorite day of the year! Annual American Association of University Women‘s book sale. 19 books and only one I already own. Filled in several series. A successful haul! #BookHaul

Let the #summerreading on the back deck commence! Finally.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✅ tagged book

Since I only read about 8-10 books per month and half of those are library books (free spaces) many titles get pushed to the next month. So many books, so little time! #MountTBR

Happy #IndependentBookstoreDay ! #bookhaul #booksandcoffee #TalkingLeavesBooks

The John Green was the only one on my radar the others are spur of the moment picks.

This is how #BookSpinBingo keeps me tackling my #TBR while the library holds keep coming in. #bookspin #doublespin

#5JoysFriday

☀️ Going to see a play tonight with my son, a classic!
☀️ My favorite tennis player (Jessie Pegula) won today and is going to the semi finals in the Charleston Open
☀️ The sun is shining!
☀️ Coffee. Always coffee. I fear soon it will be a luxury rather than a staple.
☀️ Library holds are in.

Shout out to my local indie Talking Leaves! #SundayFubday

Ready for April. Hoping for some reading outside weather. But it‘s doubtful. #bookspinbingo

Reading the tagged book reminded me that I never finished tracking last year‘s series progress.
TOP ROW: continuation of series I‘m in the middle of (the real goal)
MIDDLE ROW: series started and finished
BOTTOM ROW: new series started
#SeriesLove2024.
Hope to do better with series I‘m in the middle of this year.

Oh Lordy this was good. First 5⭐️ of the year.

Birthday book haul! (Plus some leftover Christmas gift card) The tagged book is my annual “pick out a book that I‘ve never heard of before for my birthday” book. #bookhaul #happybirthdaytome

I picked up the tagged book at a used book sale, along with others in the series just because of the covers. I had no idea the author is an actress who has been in a million things! She will be playing Joyce in the adaptation of Thursday Murder Club. So fun! #BookSpinBingo

#MonthlyWrapUp #MonthlyStats Pretty good month. Favs: All the Water in the World, Midnight at the Blackbird Cafe, The Snowbirds; Disappointments: The Lost Bookshop, Cafe at the Edge of the World. Four backlist from my Kindle #ReadMyKindle. No #Series2025 this month, but did complete my #BookSpin and #DoubleSpin ❤️🩷💜

Big month! I get to pick a free birthday book and a free one from the top 5 of 2024 in addition to my monthly pick. Woo hoo! #BOTM

So. There was a sale at Book Outlet. Filled in some series titles. #bookhaul.

But one book was not in the box, ☹️

I don‘t even know what I‘m in the mood for. I‘m just looking at the shelves and adding titles. #bookspinbingo

I‘ll be reading my Kindle with my #bookSpin and #DoubleSpin this month. #readmykindle

The board is ready. I‘ve been doing good with reading my shelves but a lot of library holds are coming in. I‘ll be using up those free spaces. #bookspinbingo

Pretty good month. #readingstats #monthlyrecap# BookSpinBingo
✅ BINGO!
✅ #bookspin
✅ #doublespin
✅✅#BOTM
✅ book that has been on my boards for years (tagged)
✅ book that has been on my shelf for years

Picked these two so fast I didn‘t even look at the others! #BOTM

Ready for February! Hoping to work on books from my shelves and not get distracted by the new and shiny! #BookSpinBingo

One good thing about having a cold is time to read! Polished off 3 books in 5 days. Loved them all! . #ReadMyKindle #MountTBR

Oh my goodness! Thank you, @Avanders . I love all the seasonal goodies, the book of course and can‘t wait to try this coffee! Merry Little Christmas to you!! #LCS #LittleChristmasSwap

Thank you so much for organizing @bookish_wookish

The usual. I have several books on my shelves with “LAST” in the title, I‘ll try to cross those off the TBR. I‘ll try to read books already on my shelves, not be so distracted by the new and shiny. Last year‘s nonfiction goal didn‘t work out so I‘m back to 1 per month. I didn‘t up my overall goal. I‘m going to try not to be so worried about numbers so I can read some longer, slower paced books. #ReadingGoals2025

My current novel plus 3 books I‘m reading a little at a time. #weekendreads

New year, new board. I‘m going to try really hard for Bingo this month. #bookspinbingo

Let‘s do this thing! (I‘m a little behind already!😉)

This was a fun endeavor. The bracket method can throw off some top picks (like when I had two favs in the same month) but the tagged book is my number one of the year!

Best year ever, in terms of numbers. Now that I made it over 100 I‘m going to try to slow down next year and not shy away from the chunksters and the slower paced books. Overall it was a great reading year! #yearendwrapup #2024inbooks

#Jolabokaflod and #LittleChristmasSwap are on the way. @bookish_wookish @MaleficentBookDragon 🎄❄️🤶

Ta Da! I did it! With a couple weeks to go. The tagged book was number 100. That‘s a personal best! The book was good but not a page turn-y as I expected. #readinggoals

It‘s here! #LCS #LittleChristmasSwap @Avanders @bookish_wookish 📚🎄

Stopped by a used bookstore today. 🙂📚#bookhaul

One seasonal + one that has been on the list for a while 🙂❄️🎄 #bookspin #doublespin.

The Christmas titles I hope to get to this month.🤞#SeasonsReading 🎄🤶❄️

So, three. Out of 100. Yeesh #NYTNotable

This year I used only red bulbs in a effort to make it look a little different from previous years. Now on Thanksgiving I can thankful that the decorating is done! And I can get back to the tagged book. #tistheseason #merrymerry

I love #bookspin and #doublespin day! Always look forward to seeing which books from my TBR I will definitely read this month. Thanks @TheAromaofBooks

Happy Halloween! 🎃👻🧙🏻 I had a great spooky season month. And I got a BINGO! #BookSpinBingo

🎃 #SeriesLove2024
🎃 #BookSpin
🎃 #DoubleSpin
🎃 Bingo!
🎃 no 5⭐️ but the tagged book and Lula Dean were 4.5

I skipped the last two months of #BOTM and I really wanted this add-on! This month‘s selections didn‘t thrill me but I chose the sweet, whimsical one. Seems like a curl up with a cup of tea on a snowy day type of book.
