I have yet to read my March books 🫣 so they will be joining my April #roll100 stack.
🎲 100 a re-read. Or rather a re-listen of the audiobook I own.
🎲 6 tbr from my 2023 list.
🎲 74 a book I selected from my lapsed BOTM.

I have my book & snacks. Pistachio settled down too soon & I‘m about to commit a crime. 🙀 That‘s right I have to move Pistachio to get my mug of coffee I was brewing.
#CatsOfLitsy
Damn fine day to re-read tagged book, but first try to convince Pistachio to use a roomier box to nap in.

My March #roll100

🎲 48 We Ate the Dark ~ from my TBR 📚
🎲 67 Infinite Country ~ from my bookshelf, haven‘t been read yet 📖
@PuddleJumper
I have one more shift to get through and then it‘s a much overdue 5 day weekend off! Gee I wonder what my plans are going to be? 🧐
I still have a stack of books that I used up renewals on to read through. Yet here I am checking out two more books. Both new to me authors Lauren Groff for #authorofthemonth and out of view Kiersten White for a fable bookclub.
@Soubhiville
Another book captured by Pistachio. It‘s ok. I was better prepared today with a stack in reach this time.
#catsoflitsy #kittensagainstliterature
I‘m a cat of course I‘ll lay down on that book you want to read.

Screenshot from Books in the Freezer insta-reel. A hilarious annotation inspired by if Lestat was written during GRWM popularity.
Annotation reads: Hey guys, welcome back to my YouTube channel.
I made it to the pentalogy book series of my reading challenge. My library loans for Catherynne Valente‘s Fairyland series arrived in the nick of time. A second storm is on its way starting 3am Friday and continuing into noon Saturday.
2024‘s #roll100 new-ish list is complete. It‘s a hodgepodge of 2023‘s books, new TBRs, and re-reads.
To be ringing in the NewYear will be 🎲 19, a 2023 Roll 100 book 🎲 83 is a re-read and so is 🎲 78.

Book for me ✔️
Let the Saturday reading game begin! 📚
May the odds of a coworker not to disturb me be in our favor. 📴
Last month of 2023‘s #roll100. 🎲 I‘m not feeling motivated by my choices for 9/90 or 53. So it‘ll only be no. 27 getting read for December.
@PuddleJumper
Spotify is including audiobooks with premium membership. Alas there‘s restrictions of allotted time being set at 15 hours per month. It‘s a start anyways to getting some of those tbrs that fall under less time. Just not you Fairytale 😔. I‘m off to search for something else.
Onto my next -ology book series; the tetralogy 📚 From what I can tell The Hunger Games isn‘t called that yet. More of a trilogy plus prequel. I‘m using these books anyways since I already own them.
While out shopping for cat supplies, I swung by B&N blocks away down the street. Pistachio isn‘t the only one getting pampered today.
Next up for my trilogy book project is The Bone Witch series. I‘ve read Bone Witch a while ago and will be re-reading it again during my luxurious weekend off. Heart Forger and Shadow Glass to follow soon-ish.
My weekend off is all booked 😁 I‘m going the checked out at library route for my Fable books.
With Poe, I‘m only reading “The Fall of the House of Usher” along with What Moves the Dead. These Violent Delights is the book chosen for duology prompt.
⬇️Fable links in the comments⬇️
As I mentioned in previous post. I was inspired by a random booktuber that YT recommended based on my watch history. First prompt from Benghis Kahn‘s video is Standalone. Tagged book gets the win on this.
I had to buy a second book to replace the Good Omens I lost on a road trip years ago. Original GO I hope you found a good home in South Dakota.
A YouTube recommendation I actually like to see pop up. I‘m borrowing inspiration from Benghis Khan‘s video to brainstorm what to read next throughout September.

Yay! I found #roll100 book no. 4 at a library branch in my city! It‘s been on my tbr for years and endured being shoved back for other books.
@PuddleJumper
I just have Desert Creatures to finish for #rushathon. Then I‘m definitely continuing into #20in4 with tagged book. Feeling confident while recuperating from reading slump, I may have gone overboard pairing duologies I own along with second books from the library . I couldn‘t decide which series to read Friday-Monday so I checked them all out. 🤭
#rushathon @DieAReader @Andrew65 @GHABI4ROSES
#20in4 @Andrew65
Chapter six of tagged book with a side of Pistachio toe beans.

@DieAReader @Andrew65 @GHABI4ROSES
I recently signed up on the fable app to join LeVar Burton‘s Book Club. There‘s a several months wait list for the club‘s current read Heaven and Earth at the Grocery Store with local library, interloans, and on the libby app. Since last month‘s tagged book is available I‘ll be listening to that one for the #rushathon.
@DieAReader @Andrew65 @GHABI4ROSES
Once my bookshelf organizing was finished I contemplated what in the world did I want to read for the #rushathon. Oh, it‘s going somewhere! Inspired by a Friends episode I chose to read the last #botm book and the first #aardvark book I bought.
@DieAReader @Andrew65 @GHABI4ROSES
Good timing to hop on Litsy to see a readathon taking place. This reading slump that continues to drag me down needs to be away with. idk what goals I plan on setting except open a book! Or ear bud my way through August. I do have to organize my bookshelf and see what credits I racked up on my Libro.fm. So I‘ll see what captures my eyes. 📚👀
#rushathon @DieAReader @Andrew65 @GHABI4ROSES
I‘ve got a theory somekitty was not amused by me sneaking out for snacks to nosh on while reading book no. 51.

#Readingslump sidelined me again. Hopefully Alice and company gets me out of the doldrums.
TIL Ginnifer Goodwin assumed OUAT producers Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz were inspired by historical figure Maria Sophia Margaretha Catharina von Erthal for her character Mary Margaret. Hint: they had no clue who she was referring to. Neither did I while googling for Snow White retellings and the blog linked in comments came up during my search. ⬇️
One block away from home and I realized I left my new year‘s meal behind at my sister‘s. So I picked up a light snack at the Cheesecake Factory to go with my first book of 2023. What are you reading today?
My January #roll100:
96 🎲 Milk Blood Heat, 2 week wait on libby
84 🎲 The Daughter of Doctor Moreau, to be picked up at local library
44 🎲 The Devil‘s Highway, to be picked up at library
@PuddleJumper
After some hemming and hawing I decided to change my litsy username AnansiGirl to SconsinBookyBadger to match along with my StoryGraph username.
Tagging @PuddleJumper @Soubhiville @Charityann @julesG @BarkingMadRead and @ElizaMarie to update you for the litsy events you tag me on.
Snowed in and plowed in from white fluffy powder out there. Luckily it‘s a day off and good time to finally get around to my fave podcasters new book.
Tiny furry overlord is hinting I take a reading paws for now to report #NovelNovember progress: Library loan The Girl Who Fell Beneath the Sea is finished. I may buy this one when I go on my next book shopping adventure. Half way through both Certain Dark Things and Fire & Blood.
@Andrew65
From House of the Cat 🐈 Happy Thanksgiving if you‘re celebrating, Happy Thursday if you‘re not. I‘ll be here catching up on some reading until get together at my nephew‘s later today. What are your plans?
During the days I have off for the #NovelNovember #readathon I have a small selection of books I want to get through before the month ends.
@Andrew65
Pistachio 🐱 First of his name, King of the Isthmus, Protector of the backyard, joining me for tea and re-reading tagged book now that my binge watch has ended for season 1 House of the Dragon.
If there‘s moments that I act immature for my age, this is one of them. I did indeed bought this book that had me giggling in the aisle at Leopold‘s Books Bar Caffe. 🤓
Book of choice to unwind to as I‘m trapped by Pistachio. He‘s a bit displeased with me for taking a five day trip traveling through Iowa, Nebraska, South Dakota, and Minnesota to visit my mom. The tiny but mighty Mountain Screamer scolded me all the way from my brother‘s until we were home.
All eyes on the calendar to see today is Happy National Book Lovers Day!
Yep that‘s me, Pistachio and I‘m sitting here wondering why my human thinks she needs to “take a break” and get snacks before continuing on with the #20in4 readathon.
#AuthorAMonth
#CatsOfLitsy
#AudioDiamondPainting along to tagged book while Officer Pistachio is on guard duty to ensure I stay put and not attempt any sneaky walk around the neighborhood.
#20in4 @Andrew65
I took a walk around the block and was immediately put in kitty jail on my return. While serving my time I finished Toni Sarnicola (nom de plume Jenna Jacobs) debut. The collection of horror short stories are good except for the CW of animal cruelty in Funeral for Birds. Also checked off for #20in4 are the traditional and retelling of Aladdin.
Tagged book wasn‘t planned on being part of #20in4. Since I had Thursday off I figured I do some warm up reading aaaaand I had a deja book moment. Apparently I read this one before? I don‘t recall much of this book except Strawberry Spring, Jerusalem‘s Lot, Last Rung on the Ladder, and of course Children of the Corn.
I have no specific #20in4 goals in mind except read or listen to my selection of print, ebooks and audiobooks.
