Daffodils from my yard (brought in before the days of rain that are predicted for us)—roses from the sale bin😁! Happy Tuesday!

kspenmoll Beautiful! Spring feels far away here! ❄️ 1mo
Elizabeth2 Gorgeous! It‘s snowing here. No daffodils in sight. 😂 1mo
Lollybooks I have to admit that as much as I love spring, I do wish our winters were a bit longer! We are at 65-70 & rain the rest of this week then back to more normal highs of 45-50. 1mo
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Beautiful 💛 flowers always make me feel happier! 1mo
Lollybooks @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I totally agree!💛 1mo

Every month, I put different books in a basket for my 16 month old granddaughter, Vera. I put in classic books that I‘ve had since my teaching days, board books—anything I think she might like. I‘m going for different textures, different types of illustrations. I didn‘t have any real Valentine books so I went with love, flowers & a late winter theme. It‘s one of my favorite ways to help her parents raise a reader!

kspenmoll What a wonderful, life giving gift!!!!💝 2mo
Lollybooks @kspenmoll books are the best gifts!😁 2mo

ReadingOver50 I have Onyx Storm waiting on my shelf 2mo
Lollybooks @ReadingOver50 I sped up the reading by listening to some (surprisingly, the audio was available on Libby with no wait) but it definitely needs to be listened to with the book to refer back to!😁 2mo
Elizabeth2 Beautyland was an interesting one. Not quite sci-fi. It‘s still with me after several months. 2mo
Lollybooks @Elizabeth2 exactly! I related to a lot of the feelings of not quite fitting in!😁 2mo
Elizabeth2 @Lollybooks yes! It was charming and relatable, and those descriptors don‘t always go with sci-fi. It was a blend of sci-fi and literary. 2mo

Current stack of books! Lord Of The Rings is my slow but steady for the foreseeable future. Onyx Storm is a buddy read & library book so it‘s taking precedence over Head Cases at the moment! The dragons are still very cool!🐉

EadieB I heard that is a great book, Onyx Storm. I just started reading fantasy. I‘m reading Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson right now. I‘m going to have start with the first book (edited) 2mo

EadieB @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Looks like I got a lot to catch up on. Carissa Broadbent will be on my list for sure! I have another friend who suggested that I read (edited) 2mo
Elizabeth2 @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I have heard such good things about that one! I saw it on here and recommended it to my sis-in-law, who loves fantasy. She loved it, and recommended I read it. 2mo
Elizabeth2 @EadieB Brandon Sanderson is one of my bonus daughter‘s favorite authors. She loaned me her copy of Mistborn. That‘s her favorite go to comfort read. It was really good. His world building is excellent. 2mo
Elizabeth2 @Lollybooks my daughter finished Onyx Storm in a day! She downloaded the audio on Libby so she could read and listen at the same time. She loved it. I took a picture of her reaction to something she read and it was its own brand of spoiler. 😂 I‘ll have to share it on here. Waiting for her permission before I post over on IG. 2mo
EadieB @Elizabeth2 I‘m almost finished with Mistborn. It is really good. 2mo
Lollybooks @Elizabeth2 I am doing that too! I have a long drive tomorrow so it will help pass the time!😁 2mo
Elizabeth2 @Lollybooks enjoy! And safe travels! 2mo
