This book as been sitting on my shelf for years so I decided to throw it out there for my book club to read this month. I am glad I did. All of us enjoyed it and several of us (myself included) have already binged our way through the rest of the original trilogy.

Question of the day....should I ignore my massive pile of work to do today (patron purge time) and pull this off the shelves for a read or should I actually do my work? It's a tough call 🤔😜 #librarylife #libraryclerk #oregonpubliclibrary

Someone isn't amused that I am using her back as a book rest 🤔😜

Hmm, this could be an interesting reading month 🤔

#TLT #ThreeListThursday @dabbe

Is it wrong of me to put...😂😂

1. Fellowship of the Ring
2. Two Towers
3. Return of the King
(All extended editions of course)

March wrap up. I must say I had a great reading month. I really enjoyed my spring break (almost a book a day). It was tough going back to work.

Favorites: Forged By Magic, A Broken Blade, the Blood Trials

Least Favorite: The Locked Door & the Lady Poisoners.

@CBee I have my list ready to go as well.

#readyourkindle #readyourebooks

My goal was to knock this out over my spring break. Chapter 29 out of 46 so I am getting there. Will it be finished before I head back to work on Monday? I guess only time will tell but it would probably help of I stopped reading other books at the same time 🤔🤦‍♀️😜

How I choose to spend my spring break..hot beverages, warm blankets, and good books. I am hoping to knock this one out quickly since I can actually read most of the day as opposed to being stuck at work. 🤞😜📚

After completing only 2 of my #readyourkindle picks last month I made it my goal to do better this month and it is safe to say I succeeded. I finished all 4 picks. They were some great picks because I thoroughly enjoyed them all. I have already read the sequel to one and have the next books on hold for the others. Hopefully I can keep this momentum going.

I need book 2...ASAP!!

Wow, just wow!!

I was looking up something at work and stumbled upon this. I immediately knew I had to check it out 🤔🤓

I only read 2 of my picks last month but this month I am hoping to read more. Maybe I will even attempt the 2 picks from last month i didn't get to. I guess we shall see. 3 of these are parts of series so I may end up going down the rabbit hole to complete the series 🤔😂🤷‍♀️

My February wrap up. I got a little slumpy towards the end but I kept pushing.

Favorite: What the River Knows.
Least Favorite: Spaceman in Bohemia

Ok @CBee I think I am ready for the next round of #readyourkindle . I only read 2 of my picks for last month but this month I plan to stick to it more. *fingerscrossed* #readyourebooks

I made this "doll" on field trip this week and thought it made the perfect addition to my Stephen King shelf ??

I really don't want to put it down but I have stuff that needs to get done today 🤔😬 #bookwormproblems

That's a wrap on book 1 for #readyourkindle #readyourebooks.

And now on to the next one....maybe 🤔🤷‍♀️📚

A teachers institute today (the start of my 4 day weekend) so I see lots of book time & kitty snuggles in my future.

Valentine's Day is quickly approaching & my goal is to only read romance books for the foreseeable future (excluding my current true crime book club pick of course). I have loved this authors previous books & am excited to see her step into the paranormal romance genre (one of my genres of choice).

5 out of 8 so far.

I am trying so hard to get the whole set but I keep getting sent the wrong covers. Just need Fragile Things, Smoke & Mirrors, and The Ocean at the End of the Lane to finish out the set.

Being a book collector & looking for specific covers/editions is hard sometimes.

Ok let's do this!! Looking forward to knocking some of my backlogged ebooks (which there is a bunch) off of my kindle.

The 1st numbers drawn were 12, 14, 17, & 18 and I can definitely get behind those picks.

#readyourkindle #readyourebooks @CBee

So many emotions!!!

Of course all my library holds come in at once and the new Sarah J Maas book comes out soon not to mention I still have a book club book to finish 🤦‍♀️

My shelves for #nationalshelfieday.

My "Stephen King" shelf (only missing the Gwendy trilogy.

My TBR shelf ( it is overflowing, I need to stop buying books lol)

My main bookshelf

Not my favorite but definitely not the worst one of his I have read...yet. The one thing that really saved it for me was all of the easter eggs to his other works. It is always fun stumbling across them and as I read more of his work I am finding more of them scattered throughout. The King Universe strikes again!!

It's not the same size (ToD is the same way) & it is driving me nuts. My sister gifted me her paperbacks because she wanted all hardcover & let me tell you trying to complete the set for a reasonable price is near impossible so I opted for the international edition ( because then it semi matches) but may be regretting my choice 😩

Ok let's see how Stephen King tackles aliens 🤔👽. Basically going into this book blind but I have heard it isn't one of his better books so I don't really have high hopes.

You know it is cold when A.) I actually turn up my heat (I am always hot so it it usually set at 64). And B.) I dig out the fingerless gloves for reading. I am so over winter!!

Someone clearly isn't happy that her brother decided to join us for snuggles.

1. Depends on when I am reading. If it is in the morning it is usually coffee. Otherwise it is usually water. During the colder months I like hot chocolate or hot cider.

2. I just finished the tagged book this morning between rounds of shoveling my driveway. Now onto a new book during this somewhat lazy snowday.

#Two4Tuesday @TheSpineView

This has been on my TBR for awhile now. I figured I could use the last few days of my winter break to give it a shot.

Not my normal type of read but my coworker wanted me to read this so we could talk about it...here goes nothing.

December wrap up.

Favorite: can't decide. I read lots of good ones this month.

Least favorite: Kingdom of Sweets.

My main December goal was "Christmas" books and I think I succeeded with 7 of them.

Since I don't anticipate finishing my current read before the year is over (it is 800+ pages & I just started it) it is stat time. I read less books this year than previously but I also read more chunksters (500+ pages) than normal so...

I have really been slacking on my ARCs lately but some of these are coming out soon so I best get cracking. Hopefully I can knock some (if not all) of these out before I go back to work.

The only plus side to being pulled to sub (as opposed to my normal day) is I get reading breaks while the kids are at specials. #lookingonthebrightside

It was a slow, rainy day at work yesterday so I used that time (and my earbuds) to knock out a good chunk of my bookclub book.

Finally a new one. Yipee!!!! Of course I tried to preorder it already but the links aren't up yet 😩

I really want to keep reading House of Earth & Blood but I really need to start my book club book or else I might not finish it before the meeting.....decisions decisions 🤔🤦‍♀️

All booked up for Christmas!! Now the question is how many of these will I actually get through since I still have bookclub books (which are Christmas related) to read 🤔🤷‍♀️😜

My emotions have been through the wringer but I have made it to the otherside.

Bought myself a bookish sticker advent calendar this year. I can't wait to see what I get!!!

Probably one of my favorite things about the holiday season...reading by the glow of the Christmas lights 😍🎄📖

At last we have arrived at the final book...I have a feeling it's gonna be a doozy. 🤔😬

Here's hoping I finish this one tonight. It has been a quick read (when I actually pick it up) but I just haven't felt like reading lately. I have been fighting off the round of sickness...oh the joys of working in a school. Break can't come soon enough because my body needs a break so I can finally kick this!!

Say what?!!

I was really hoping my library hold would've come in but sadly it did not so I guess I will finally pick this one up instead. Here's hoping I can finish it before Iron Flame gets here because otherwise it is getting sidelined lol

October wrap up.

My goal for the month was to read spooky books and I think I succeeded.

Favorite: If We Were Villians

Least Favorite: Best of Luck

Now, on to some more light & fluffy books as a bit of a palette cleanser (well after I finish the 1 spooky book I still have).
