Netflix is my new favorite obsession! The Order is on my to watch list so of course I'll be checking our this recommendations. Has any one read any of the books?

Speaking of Cinder, I watched the trailer of Alita: Battle Angel and it reminded me so much of Cinder and the Lunar Chronicles series. Has anyone read Alita the manga? Is it me or there are a lot of similarities in the stories?

1. Good ol' KS, USA
2. Romance first and foremost (yes, I love romance and I'm not ashamed to admit it 😊) followed by fantasy, urban fantasy and sci-fi.
3. Don't have one. Maybe Anne Rice or Jane Austen
4. Cinder! I only gave it a chance because it was a required book in one of my GR groups but I immediately fell in love with the series.

I feel like such an adult when I get out the sewing kit ? "Resizing" the nephew's pants while listening the tagged book and after being in bed for TWO WHOLE weeks with the flu. Feeling much better though. The flu is no joke, guys. Please take care of yourselves!

What a great idea @wanderinglynn ! Love making new friends 😊

"Understands muslin" ?
He and Capt. Wentworth are at the top of my favorites by Austen ?

Reading this one. It's not very often I say this about contemporary romance but I'm enjoying this one. Super easy read with likeable characters.

So happy about this graphic! Author Juliette Cross was kind enough to let her IG followers reveal the cover of her upcoming release HARDEST FALL and this is what I made ? The book tagged is the first in the series. You can view the "video" on Twitter https://twitter.com/AnnMortes/status/1085185366884261888?s=19

I'm in awe! I met this priest with a small collection of old books, and I mean old. That print date on this page in Roman numerals? Yep, that's 1578... I'm trying to convince him to either keep those books in a more controlled environment room or to donate them to a museum because they are becoming dust on that shelf, LITERALLY! ☹😟😪

Guys, I'm so freaking excited! I'm visiting my brother in FL and he surprised me with a visit to this exhibition 💖 I'll post pics later on ☺

Happy Day to us all! Or some of us at least. I think there's this huge misconception that all introverts are shy. I say we just have a different world view and don't need to socialize 24/7 in order to feel satisfied. So, here's to you if today is your day!

Last read of the season although it was in audio. Even though the heroine was a little neurotic it was still ok. My only issue is that I'm not a fan of the falling in love with someone you hardly know in a couple of days, regardless of how badly you crushed on said person in HS. It still helped pass the time so it was 3 stars.

Geez! How many notebooks/journals does one person need? And only one of them has been partially used 😂

Exactly what I was looking for! Sweet, cute, and filled with sexual tension novella about a couple that decided to be enemies for no apparent reason. Miscommunications galore but a satisfying ending 👍❄☃️ 3.5 stars

#romancy #romantsy #Holidays #Christmas #audiobook

Sometimes (most times) when I agree to receive an ARC I read the blurb but by the time I get to it I've forgotten what the book was about... I started reading this one and for some reason I thought it was about yet another debutante only to find out it was about full on adult woman! Yes! Love me a "mature" woman in historical romance ?

I'm part of @EloisaJames ' readers group in FB and I got this book for our Holiday Swap! Anyone else part of the group? Are you taking part in the book exchange?

Meh...I guess I can call it cute but it was too Hallmark Channel like, same old same old. It helped me pass the time so there's that.

Uhmm... not for me. Half way in and I had to give up. I can appreciate good dark humor but the narrators sounded just plain bitter. And some of the "jokes" were so wrong ("the best part of the dressing rooms was seeing the [high school elves] in their underwear") Definitely a Pan for me.

3. Sexual education. It's the 21st century, why are we still having this conversation?!
4. Lancome
5. Who's David Sedaris?
6. acquises...acquisize... acquiesces. There 😂

So 25 min in on audio and more than merry this one sounds like a tale of worst Christmas jobs ever... please tell me it gets better!

Eek! 😱
What say you? Can a movie be as good as the book even if it doesn't resemble it or is just loosely based on the original book? I have to say of the only two books/series I've actually read, Harry Potter and Pride and Prejudice, I loved both book and movie(s).

Calling all my Litsy friends! Tell me about your favorite Holiday/Christmas book. Preferably on the light side but not necessarily. I need some good Holiday stories, and yes, Kwanzaa, Hanukkah, Boxing Day, etc. counts!

I was offered an ARC for this book through one of my FB groups and I'm so happy for the chance! I had heard about this author but had never really read anything by her until now. Her characters were well-rounded and complex, the storyline went beyond the typical romance, and while most if the book took place in France, the author didn't use silly French accents to make the reader feel a real French setting 💖
Totally a pick.

So, I didn't love this one. Hero was too brooding and heroine was way too timid and fearful. This is a good author so I'm sad to say this was a Pan for me. 😔

#romancy #romantsy #romance #historicalromance

This was such a fun read, and just like the pic says, I loved the whole series! The heroes, unlike lots of other contemporary romances, are never overbearing, over possessive, or jerks. If you haven't read this author you should give it a try 😉
I gave this one 4 1/2 🌟

Well then, I guess I am an INFJ after all 😉
Although I don't think we're that rare, all my bookdragon fellows tend to have all these characteristics 😅

So, I'm either Mr. Darcy or Colonel Brandon/Elinor Dashwood/ George Knightley. I can't recall if I'm an INTJ or an ISTJ but according to this list the characters depicting either type sound pretty accurate. Do you know your type? Do you agree with the Austen character description?

Your Saturday laugh brought to you by the word Pareidolia (it's actually fun to say it, even if I don't know if I'm saying it right 😅)

So I figured since it's Halloween season it was a good time to watch something spooky. For all the hype I truly wouldn't call this show "horror" but it is suspenseful and spooky. But the best part of it was the family dynamics and the fact that no religion of any kind was involved (I don't think all supernatural phenomenon was created by evil or God.) I think Stevie in the show explains it best ??‍♀️??
Has anyone watched it yet?

I know I read lots of romance but this made me laugh so hard 😂😂 I guess I'm just a cynic at heart.

I tried, I really tried but I just couldn't finish it. Past 25% and the story has hardly moved forward. And I just had the feeling that more than a tale it was a failed attempt at a South Asian geopolitical and military artillery lesson. Hopefully that changes later but I don't have time for that when I could be reading something I really enjoy 🤷‍♀️

1. Can you believe I didn't read any of the children's classics until my late teens? I think my most "childish" book was the book tagged and The Little Prince and I wouldn't call them favorites ?‍♀️
2. Chocolate cake!
3. Is watching movies a hobby?
4. Near the beach.
5. Tagged! You're it!
