Happy October 🍁🍂….#books #classics #cute #octobers

Due to moving into a WFH position I seriously don‘t have space for new books. #books #booklover #happiness #cute

If all goes to plan I‘ll be a guest on a Podcast at the end of September to talk about Stephen King. I‘m so excited. And to prepare I‘m re-reading my favorite King novel. And reading Danse Macabre as well. I can‘t wait to fangirl over King‘a works. #returningtoSalemslot #books #stephenking #goodtimes

I‘m currently listening to this….and honestly I thought that Margaret Beaufort was cray cray….nope her son definitely has her beat. Also this installment in the series is very good. I can‘t wait to listen to the next one. #books #series #tudors #historicalfiction

Spent the day in Baltimore with my partner and we and to visit Edgar ❤️ #poe #edgarallan #books #balitmore

Rewatching Game of Thrones and knitting…I swear I‘ve messed up this stitch but I still like the way it looks lol #cute #knitfastwinterscoming #knittersoflitsy

I need to be working on my #litsylove notes; I‘m so behind. But right now Knitting is keeping me sane. I just finished this lovely hat and I‘m obsessed with the Pom Pom. I can‘t wait to wear it this fall/winter. #knittersoflitsy #knitfastdiewarm

💕💕 I Hope that everyone took the day off to enjoy a good book. #books #booklover #happiness #reading

Over the years I‘ve owned several copies of Anne‘s Diary; it‘s a books near and dear to my heart. Her diary was there when I needed it growing up. I can‘t wait to revisit Anne‘s words this fall. #books #annefrank #lookwhatsonmyshelves

Happy Birthday Harry James Potter! #books #harrypotter #fandom #hogwarts #booksilove #jkrowlingisstillaterf

It was sold out on Amazon forever and I finally got a copy. I can‘t wait to read it. #books #jimhenson #eightiesbaby

The Autobiography was very insightful; at times infuriating and at others deeply moving. I left this book with a better appreciation of Malcolm X. I wish this man had lived. I would have loved to see how his trip to Mecca continued to change him and how that would have impacted his work in the civil rights movement.

I‘ve owned it forever but haven‘t made the dive into it. But it‘s on my TBR for next month. #reading #reproductivejustice #blackfeministreads2022

I‘m having a lot of issues with this book. As a Womanist I have a hard time with the misogyny of Malcolm X. I don‘t regret reading this at all but some of it makes me rethink all that I knew and loved about this man. #history #books

We also made it to Mickey‘s Diner ❤️. #goducks

I‘m in St.Paul, MN with my friends and we went past one of the homes F.Scott Fitzgerald lived in. #writers #books #booklover #vacation

I‘m on a hat kick! This took like 3.5 hours lol. I was so proud of it I wore it around the house for hours 🤣🤣🤣. #knittersoflitsy

I am both intrigued and grossed out. It‘s pretty clear that Ann Rule was attracted to Bundy. The way she shades his unassuming girlfriend Liz is weird; particularly taking shots at her looks etc. #truecrime #audiobook #quickreads

I‘ve been listening to a lot of pod casts and a few audiobooks and all the while I‘ve been crafting. The latest finished project is this hat. It‘s my first hat and honestly I‘m really happy with it. #knitting #knittersoflitsy #needtoreadmore

I am also finishing up The Watchmen. This book is taking me the longest to get through. #thewatchmen #whowatchsthewatchmen #comics #graphicnovels

This really took me some time to get into but now that I‘m into it I‘m enjoying it. #beenonmytbrthelongest #books #suspense #haunted #rebecca

I haven‘t been reading much but I have been paper crafting. Designing stickers and day dreaming. The other night I dreamt of all thing Parisian. (While listening to Rebecca). #paris #cute #imadethese

I‘m trying to get back into my rhythm of reading and I am feeling like my first book choice of the year was a bad one!

I‘m in Baltimore for the evening; mom has a biopsy tomorrow and I decided to work on my knitting while my partner was on his work call. I finished this gift. (Total time was about 3 hours of knitting). I love the way it looks. #knitting #litsy #ineedtoreadmore

My roomie was cleaning out her books and gave me this. It‘s a first edition (adult copy) of the UK book 7. I was the one that encouraged her to buy it in the first place. I now own three copies of this book 🙃. #harrypotter #jkisstillaterf #potterfandom

I may not be reading as much lately but that hasn‘t stopped me from doing other things. While listening to The Stand last night I worked on my Nightmare Before Christmas Cup. It‘s not perfect but I love it. #nightmarebeforechristmas #timburton

I had a hard time with parts of this book. Mainly it was the racism and sexism of the book that bothered me but it wasn‘t until I really thought about it that I realized that that was the entire point. Hendricks did a beautiful job of showing the BS in US culture. Also the book is really funny. I will definitely end up reading this again.

Made this a while back too. Time to make it bigger! #keychains #craftingasselfcare #witchy #almosthalloween

I‘ve been crafting for the past few weeks to help deal with my anxiety and I‘ve gone down the rabbit hole of making planner clips….#craftingisselfcare #howimdealing

Taking some time this week to get caught up on #litsylove notes and crafting. It‘s been a stressful two months. #books #love #reader #bookmarks

The long and short of it is that Margaret Beaufort is perhaps one of those characters I hate to actually (kinda) like. She wants to appear as this gentle woman; whose godly etc. But she comes off as a righteous, spiteful and judgmental woman who above all is ruled by jealously. The women of War of the Roses are definitely much more interesting then the men lol.

Most current listen….I didn‘t think that I would enjoy this as much as I am. I actually stopped reading The Shining to start this one. #thisonehasawitch #historicaldramas #goodbooks #audible

Birthday books….my partner and I went to our favorite bookshop yesterday and I got these. I attempted to pay for them and he wasn‘t having that lol. I can‘t wait for a nice day to go to the park and sit and read Hardy and let my brain work a little harder. I love classics and I am so happy to have this mini edition. I looks for Austen and they where out.

Getting caught up on my #litsylove notes and I included these in a few of them; made my me. And more bookmarks will be coming to my shop The Bookish Crafter in a few weeks. #litsy #creative #cricut

Blocked the one off bc well…it has a cuss word. I‘ve been busy learning how to use my Cricut - I‘m determined to create some nice book marks to add to my #litsylove letters.

I wanted to love this story but soo much of it is so bad lol. Right down to the vaguely racist crap that‘s used in the book. It‘s a shame because I love this movie.

This was one of those books I expected to like but sadly I just couldn‘t get into it. So after restarting a chapter a few times I decided to bail.

I made a mock-up of Death Eater/Daily Prophet planner stickers for my next HP re-read. These really did come out well. #dailyprophet #reader #harrypotter #reading

Listening to The Shadow Of Night (again) by Deborah Harkness and created planner stickers. My Cricut is saving me a Mint on planning things and it‘s also helping me to be creative. I am planning on making bookmarks to stuff in my letters for #litsylove (which I‘m resuming this weekend). I think these came out nice. #happyplanner #mickeymouse #reader #reading

Today marks the 23rd Anniversary of the battle of Hogwarts…. Remembering all those lost /* . #Potterhead #Rowlingstillsucks #JKRowlingisstillaTERF #ProudSlytherin

The Panasonic has taken away my ability to concentrate and that means my reading and responding to some Litsy Loves has taken a real hit. But...I‘m still remaining as creative as possible. Here is my first coaster with my Cricut. I‘m upset that the “s” from Chips is missing 🤣🤣🤣. #underthedome #mistakes #reader #kingfandom

I finally started this one....
I‘m slowly trying to get into the rhythm of my reading again. The pandemic really has left me in a slump. #books #reader #reading #happiness #truecrime

HP is coming to the small screen and I‘m sooooooo ready for it. I may hate Jo but I do love this. Here is the link for the deets: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.hollywoodreporter.com/amp/live-feed/harry-potte...

I love this quote however, I don‘t love the context it is used in in this book. It feels also cringy to me. I took the section to mean to just allow people to overstep boundaries and that‘s a no for me. The sixth chapter is just odd. #books #quotes #cleanlove

Hope your all having a Blessed Samhain! #halloween #granddaugtherofawitch

I got bad news about work today so per my usual...when stressed I teach myself a new knitting skill. And tonight was cable knitting. It‘s not perfect and thank god this is at the end of the work (once seamed it won‘t be seen when worn) but I think it will better as I go. #knitting #knittersoflitsy #stress

This is the second time I‘ve read a Schiff book and was over whelmed with it. So I bailed it. I may come back to it at another time but I had to let it go last night.

I clearly have a yarn problem...so much yarn 🤦🏾‍♀️. #knitterissues #knitfastordiecold #knittersoflitsy

Hey y‘all long time no see. How‘s it going? Are y‘all safe? Do you feel loved? Are you hydrated? And most importantly are you reading awesome books that make you happy? I sure hope the answer to all the questions are Yes. #bookish #lovedup

Using the last of my Harry Potter Forever Stamps....😭. And Including some cute little messages on the #litsylove envelopes. #books #booklover #beaLuna #BelikeLoveGood
