What a blessing - a new Kate Morton book, a cuddly dog, and nothing else to do.

I started this series in November, 2022, during a time of personal crisis. I quickly switched to listening to the audiobooks, and enjoyed listening to the adventures of private investigator Kinsey while walking or doing a puzzle. Ten months later, I am happy and sad to finish the series. Kinsey was a friend to me when I needed a fictional companion and I will miss her.
Current reads. 21 days left until I go back to work. Soaking up as much summertime as each day can hold! #teachersoflitsy
I did it!!!
Another great story from Emily Henry. It wasn‘t my favorite of hers, but it checked all the boxes. And now I want to go to Maine!
Slow summer mornings unwind with coffee and reading on the back patio. I am loving this travel memoir! Anyone travel alone? Where did you go?
Last summer I tagged along with my husband on a business trip. During the day, I was on my own in Austin, Texas. It was a great time!
I‘m finally reading this book. I have mixed feelings so far, at about 20 pages in. My sandwich was amazing!
Reading and ice cream in the shade on a sunny summer day.
Library stack today. I found The History of Love at the used book store attached to the library, and bought it because I loved it so much. Now I can loan it to people. I started skimming it and nope - I‘m in for a complete re-read. And a nap.
I thought this was one of the better ones - the characters were more developed and I liked the past and present narration. I‘m almost done with the series - only 6 more!
Happy Super Bowl Sunday!
Audiobook + puzzle is my current jam.
Rainy days. Coffee and a book in front of the fireplace. This is my absolute best self-care.
Up next! #winterbreak #teachersoflitsy
First book of 2023! This took me awhile to read because I couldn‘t figure out the writer‘s style. By the end, though, I got it and liked it. This complicated story about a group of four friends at boarding school and a brutal murder of a young man was interesting and I didn‘t figure it out until the end.
I finished the H audiobook this week - last book of 2022. I‘m burning through the Sue Grafton mysteries and loving them. 2022 was good for reading - I exceeded my goal!
I‘ve decided to read all of Sue Grafon‘s alphabet mysteries. Some I can get in audio format and some in print. I‘m hooked!
I liked this book. The characters were interesting and the family was a real mess.
I‘m ahead of my reading challenge - literally the only thing going well in my life right now.
Wow. I read this in one sitting. What a crazy twisty story. You‘ll never figure out what really happened the night the baby was kidnapped. Trust no one - not even yourself. Highly recommend! Also clear your schedule because you won‘t be able to put this down!
Library stack. 🥰
My husband and I are listening to this audiobook on our road trip. Wil Wheaton reading this makes it even better. The John Hughes section was delightful!! I love Pretty in Pink and Sixteen Candles. So fun!
I really enjoyed this book. It opens with Maya, the third wife, walking in front of a bus and dying. Was it an accident or intentional? What is really going on with this family? And the rest of the book explores those questions. We meet the two ex-wives and the five kids. We flashback to when Maya was alive. Great ending!
Picture is from our road trip - scene near Lake Tahoe on the way to Idaho.
These books were DELIGHTFUL. I found the series from a list of books to read if you like Only Murders in the Building. My husband and I are obsessed with Only Murders, so I gave this a try. Such a great series! Stevie is a complex young detective determined to solve a cold case - and deal with her extreme anxiety and her first boyfriend. Oh, and high school.
Currently reading at the coffee shop where my daughter works in Honolulu. Nice cozy little place with great lattes and better service 😉
Second book in the Truly Devious series - currently OBSESSED.
This is the last five books I read. I‘m now ahead of my reading challenge schedule! Truly Devious was an excellent read! Mysterious events, shady characters, set at a boarding school. Cliffhanger ending - I immediately borrowed the next book in the series!
I‘m having lunch in the United lounge, enjoying the wait for my flight to Hawaii. I love the fancy lounge. We had a free pass, so here I am. Good food and good book. I‘m glad I got here early!
Reading inside today. This book is wonderful! I keep looking up photos and facts about Jackie O.
Loaded up my kindle tonight. This should keep me busy!
Starting a new book with my lavender latte this morning. Also, I just notice that I‘m over 20,000! Thanks everyone!
“We are all guilty of seeing things through the lens of our own lives.”
This guilt is my current heartbreak. It helps to see my feelings articulated on the page.
The Austin central library is six stories of beauty and light. I bought a tshirt. I think this is going to be a new thing for me - to visit libraries when I travel and buy stuff to support them. What library do you love? #publiclibrary #library
Reading at a cafe in Austin, Texas. This book is SO long. I‘ve been reading it all week all over Austin!
