The Princess Diarist | Carrie Fisher

Before waiting in the car line, I swung by the library to pick this up. A few lines have stabbed me straight through the heart, since Carrie recently passed, but it is funny, smart and sarcastic. ❤❤❤

Alright, guys. I'm throwing in the towel. I love reading, but I'm treating it like a chore now. Plus, the AFC Championship is on and my boys are playing. I came in with a total of 17:31:15. Good luck to everyone. #24in48. ❤❤❤❤❤

I've been at it off and on today. Contemplating taking the girls to my sister's and going to the park to finish up while basking in the sunshine. #24in48

Alright, guys. I was going to say goodnight to all my fellow #24in48 participants last night, but I accidentally reset my timer AGAIN, so I got mad and just stayed up. Was also so mad that I forgot to take a pic of the place in my book where I stopped. So, as of 3ish this morning, this is my time. Counting the time I lost BOTH times I accidentally reset, I'm at 14:31:29. 🙁

Accidentally pushed "lap" earlier. As long as it wasn't "reset" again, I'm good. ? If you count the time I lost earlier, I'm at 7:51:42. #24in48

Guys. The universe is cheering me on. Out of nowhere, it started storming. Coffee brewing now and I'm about to restart my timer! #24in48

I feel as if I'm trudging through this. Not because I don't like it, but because I read it recently (within the last few months) and the only reason I started it again was because I got the sequel in the mail today (FINALLY).

The Gate Thief | Orson Scott Card

Ok, so I'm setting this one aside. I've read the first few chapters and I'm not absorbing anything. Now I'll be switching to The 5th Wave and then, afterwards, The Infinite Sea. Maybe a change of "scenery" will help...

First break I've taken since I fat-fingered my previous time away. Still mad. However, onward! #24in48

The Lost Gate | Orson Scott Card

Well, I finished book #1 for #24in48, but when I went to pause my stopwatch for a break, I accidentally reset it. So. 2hrs, 43min & 39seconds.. Down the drain. 😣😣😣

swishandflick Oh no! 7y
loulabby @swishandflick If I start over now, i can still make it. I'm just so mad at myself!! Lol 7y
swishandflick Maybe leave it running during a break or two to get some of it back? 7y
loulabby That's what I'm thinking. ❤ 7y
loulabby Btw, love your screenname (can it be called a screenname now.. Am I old? Lol). I'm a Potterhead myself. 😊 7y

When the back cover of a book includes the words "disturbingly plausible" and "chaos theory", I know I'm going to like it.

I snatched this up for my 7-year-old at the library today to take with us on our trip to Texas for Christmas. I can't wait for her to devour it!

THIS. I'm not into series, usually, (unless it's HP ⚡) but this one has snared my attention. So much so that I'm doing laundry at midnight on a Wednesday.. (Thursday?). 😆

I started this lovely today. Lotsa relevant quotes to even today, and I'm only on pg10.

I've started over with the book. I could not tell you how many times I've read it, as it is my all-time favorite so far.
