Gotta love the excitement and trepidation of finally getting your hands on a book you've been anxiously awaiting!

Watching another one of my favorites from the Netflix Christmas Universe -- Holiday in the Wild. Beautiful scenery, elephants, and Robe Lowe!

I quite enjoyed Ben Stiller's new Christmas movie, Nutcrackers. It is definitely more drama than comedy, and Christmas is more of a backdrop, but it was really good.

I love the concept, but I'm not sure it is for me. It was hard to follow (maybe just a little too convoluted for audio?), and while absurd in some funny ways, I think some of the jokes were lost on me. Probably doesn't help that I'm not a Jane Eyre fan. I do like this type of humor and the concept is fun, so I may try more in the series and other books by Jasper Fforde.

No #WinterGames2024 word search words, but this was a TBR read!

4/5 🌟

This is such an odd premise, but it was fun to just go along with it and see what would happen. There are some tense moments, but overall this is an amusing look at relationships, the thing that makes us happy and the things that annoy us.

And two more while listening to The Husbands. This book is fabulous so far!

5 🌟I love this book for the sheer joy it brought me while reading it, while also still creating poignantly heartbreaking and thoughtful moments. Is it fluffy at times? Absolutely. But are the characters also so supremely loveable to the point that you want to root for them? Also absolutely. ⬇️

Trying to be more conscious of posting when I read for readathons. Read a total of 2.75 hours in You're the Problem, It's You (68 pages) and The Eyre Affair (6%) .

This may only be funny to a niche group of people, but I once had to kick at a goose to get it to stop trying to attack me and a friend on a walk (the goose was perfectly fine), and they still tell stories about it and send me goose memes. 😅

Went to my town's Christmas tree lighting ceremony and the #decorations were gorgeous. First time doing this, but I think I'm going to make it a #holidaytradition for sure.

Nothing brings me peace and joy quite like waking up the day after I've decorated and curling up with a good book, a warm blanket, and a cup of coffee and reading by the light of the Christmas tree.

I only got to participate in #20in4 and #FirstSnowReadathon today, but 120 pages and a little over 4 hours in my books is a respectable showing! It has been a fabulous day of reading and decorating the Christmas tree.

My November reading recap. I read some amazing books last month, but Somewhere Beyond the Sea was definitely my favorite.

Here's my version of This or That?. I look forward to seeing your answers!

5🌟 Somehow Klune made this sequel even better than the first, and I absolutely adored the first. I laughed, I cried, and I was inspired. I adored this book and will place it with pride up on my shelf.

Every time I look at the cover for this book I think ???"I was a teenage dirtbag baby." ????

I read some really good books this month!

Had a pretty good September :)

Lovely fall setup at my library today right now 🍂🍁🍂🍁

Here's my #hauntedshelf TBR. I guarantee it will change up, but these are books I currently have on my radar. 😁

This is my recommendation for #letsgo #hauntedshelf ! I read this a couple years ago for Halloween and it has the perfect vibe. Highly recommend!

It is finally cool enough and not mosquito ridden to do one of my favorite fall activities. Reading by candlelight outside.

Yay! I'm back! I got the work around to work for my phone and have the Litsy app again. I've missed y'all these last 9 months or so. :)

So, without further ado, checkout the new books I got today
😆

If you want a fun place to socialize, discuss books, and be encouraged to read, I'd love to share with you TBR: The Bookworm Revolution.

We run a book game every month (on FB and Discord), and this month's theme is Monster Mash. Are you the monster, the monster hunter, or the monster lover? I know which I am! 💜💜💜

This movie makes me so happy. 🥰

I appreciate when a book I'm enjoying supports my habits. 😆

Smokey loves the Christmas tree. He keeps hopping up on my footstool to look at it. 😻
