In the silence, we will remember them....
What a great party! It was a very successful reading weekend. I will probably read a bit more before bed, but I‘m calling my time now. I‘m going to spend some time with my hubby and the tv.
Congratulations @MrBook And thanks so much for the fun time @Lynnsoprano @Andrew65 @TheReadingMermaid @jb72 @Rachel.Rencher @Lucas.Rencher

Comfort food on a snowy day. Tomato sandwich and a cup of Yorkshire gold. The teen is nagging me to read this one, so he can borrow it. He‘ll be happy that it‘s up next. lol

pickAll songs are homesick songs, Finn.
Even the happy ones?
Especially the happy ones.
Why don‘t authors use quotation marks anymore?!? Normally that would make me bail, but it kinda worked here. I think it‘s because the writing was so poetic. A story set in Newfoundland and Alberta. When the cod surplus hits rock bottom and families had to find a new way to live. They fell on the oil industry. Timely, considering where Alberta finds itself now.
Morning start time. I think I‘ll hit #24B4Monday It‘s looking a little dreary outside my bedroom window this morning. It‘s supposed to snow all day again. I only have 100 pages left in this book, so I‘m going to stay in bed and finish it before breakfast. Bed is the best place for a #LitsyPartyOfOne #MrBook1inAMillion

Took a little break from this one to workout. And listen to an audiobook. Hubby walked with the teen to Tim‘s and they brought me back a doughnut. Good thing I did that HITT workout. lol

I didn‘t have time to make any #LitsyPartOfOne posts yesterday. It was a little crazy and I fell asleep with with a book on my face. But I did get 7:17 on the clock for #24B4Monday and #MrBook1inAMillion This is the stack I‘ve been working on. I will have more time to post today. I hope.

pickI loved this book. A post-apocalyptic thriller set in a remote northern Ontario Anishinaabe community. When society collapses, can they use the knowledge passed down through the generations to survive the winter? And what happens when visitors from the south arrive? Creepy, atmospheric, lots of allegory, centered around family and community. I recommend that you read it during a harsh, snowy, winter day.
I went to download a hold today and these were the recommendations that popped up. I feel like the library is spying on me. But they aren‘t wrong. lol
The sky outside my window looks just like this book cover today. It‘s a sign. I think it‘s time to read it. I have heard good things.
Our fantastic @MrBook has reached 1,000,000! Whoop! And there is going to be a party to help him celebrate. You all know how much I love a #LitsyPartyOfOne or maybe not. But it‘s my favourite kinda party! Head over to his page for the details. #24B4Monday
Well, I did want the paperback, but not anymore. Why is it so much more than a hardcover? Maybe I need to visit the bookstore.
The snow stopped and the doorbell has started. This is the jack-o-lantern the 13 year old carved. We are settling in with some horror movies. Don‘t eat too much candy!
