Thank you @BookmarkTavern for creating this fun play-card 🫂🙏 hope you like the qoute, and that your difficulties are soon in your past 💝.
Fantasy is my main go-to comfort read.
The Spellshop and Winterwood we're absolutely wonderful (slow going on Winterwood but I loved it).
If you enjoy wacky, I always enjoy, The RileyThorn Mysteries.

Last night, made it to page 20 of 705 pages...the beginnings of an epic 🥳🐉📚💝.
It's early, yet loving this. Like how Murtagh can communicate with his dragon.
Chunkster Tip
If reading a Chunkster before bed, try not to doze off...705 pages wrapped in hardcover becomes mighty hazardous when it smashes onto your face 😂📚💝.

Caught up with reading Dec. (Christmastime) and Jan. Hope this continues with it's strong Christmassy feel 🥳📚🎄💝.
The Characters have been introduced (this jumps across multiple POVs), the details have been laid out, and the year new year has begun ⛸️❄️.
This is going to be fun, reading this throughout the year 🪄🎄📚💝.

Thank you @debinhawaii for #5JoysFriday & for the tag 💖🌺💝.
I usually wait until Friday evening to post my five joys just in case something extra special happens...today I figured why not a little bit earlier ☺️💖.
1- No Martial Law has been declared 🙏🇺🇸.
2- firefighters (always grateful) 👨🚒🦸👩🚒🦸♂️🧑🚒🦸♀️🙏💝.
3- Rain should be coming. Hopefully enough, yet calm. Californians are all worried for landsides and toxic run off

And just one more positive qoute for this evening ✨🌌🌠💫...have a good night everyone ☺️💖.

I'm enjoying that the character, Weber is more weaved into this second book...he is the police detective that Riley is consulting for.

This book is pure magic, with one incredible scene after another. If I had to select one chapter to favorite, or one scene, it would be this one 😍💝 just amazing!
#thespellshopreviewedbyanncrystal
As posted about, I've been reading, yet lately, been finding it difficult to keep myself fully entranced by the words.
I hadn't wanted to finish reading this while I was only able to half immerse myself into the story.
And I'm glad. I wouldn't have been able to truly appreciate the last few chapters if I hadn't hit the pause button for a weekend rechargeathon.

Thank you @Kerrbearlib for creating this #MentalHealthMonday
Well, it had nothing to do with a Christmas slump that I fell into after Jan. 6th, it was purely a reading slump...a real struggle to stay in the story.
Therefore we spent the weekend watching fantasy and Christmas movies (including the TV broadcast of Beauty & The Beast).
It was a rechargeathon, which refuelled my love for all things fantasy and hopefulness.

Nothing like the Magic of Disney to calm the worry about what tomorrow might bring.
ABC showed the new Beauty & The Beast tonight! Could never find this on DVD, and we were absolutely thrilled!
A grown up version of the childhood animated classic.
Incredible movie that goes directly onto my all-time favorites list.

This Hiawatha wampum belt tells the story of the Haudenosaunee's legendary story of three: Peacemaker, Hiawatha and Jigonsaseh (the first clan mother) who together convinced hate filled hearts into becoming forgiving and peaceful, uniting five (multi-generation) warring Nations.
As one story tells, after Hiawatha lost his daughters, he had a reason to continue his hatred...but he instead chose to forgive and fight for peace.

This world! This story is just too lovely! Plan to finish this weekend, although I really, really want this story to go on for at least a thousand more pages 📚👏🤩📚💝.
Was considering which of my illustrations I want for my profile, and decided on this one. It is from my, “To Be Continued“ page.
While I tried to keep the first book more on the light and cozy side, the second book becomes more serious and darker. I believe this illustration highlights this, and gives a hint to what is to come if my hero doesn't succeed.

I couldn't find a 2025 planner with all the bells and whistles that I needed, or they were too expensive...I therefore decided to make my own. A desk version and one for my handbag.
If anyone is having difficulty finding a new planner this year, perhaps you can also make your own. You can even use store bought stickers to decorate your cover.

Was stashing my Christmas books onto the bookshelf where I made space for them, and one jumped off and slapped me on my forehead.
It was one I purchased in late Dec. 2024 but hadn't planned to read right away...on my tbr next C'mas list.
As I've posted about, I'm not planning to read any more Christmas until maybe July.
I already have an unrealistic tbr stockpile waiting for me (that I have gathered to begin this New Year with).
👇
Thank you @debinhawaii for creating this fun play-card & for the tag 💕🌺💝.
1- the remaining fires are calming, praying for no more 🙏🐻.
2- Firefighters 👨🚒👩🚒🧑🚒 who came together to help our own from neighboring countries, states, and counties 🦸🦸♂️🦸♀️.
3- the extreme Winds are calmer 🌬️🍃🙏.
4- invited @Wildflower & @JosusAngel to Litsy. How wonderful that they both joined 🥳👍.
👇
Hitting the pause button on these two...
Just can't find that Christmas feeling right now, and it seems a shame to continue reading Christmas without feeling the magic of Christmas.
I will return to these reads when the season rolls around again, if not in July.
The season zoomed by way too swiftly, and the world seems too chaotic right now...I need fantasy (the year round kind of fantasy), and Riley Thorn right now.
📚💝.
This was a lovely & sweet read.
It was a tad bit dated, yet it was nice to be back in this decade before the sci-fi reality of today.
Would've liked to see more Angel magical/mysterious scenes.
While C'mas wasn't center stage throughout the storyline, this felt Christmassy. Perhaps knowing Mrs. Miracle was an Angel helped.
Liked how the POV jumped between the characters and enjoyed studying the recipes tucked between some of the chapters.
Hi everyone, please welcome my maternal cousin (by my mom's sister) @JosusAngel to Litsy!
Glad you have joined this magical place called Litsy JosusAngel 📚💝.

WOW, this was good...and I should be ashamed of myself because I couldn't finish the perfectly sweet story, “The Mistleoe Matchmaker“ yet I really enjoyed this Christmas, cozy-murder mystery. Yeah, still believe that “Christmas“ and “cozy“ should not be combined with “murder!“ It just seems wrong, yet this was just too good...🤔😂.
I'm terrible...although this is a Christian-influenced story, which was lovely.
