Cleaned house, got a facial, and now comes reading time ahhhhhhh 📖
February seems to be the month of DNFs for me 😕
I just couldn't with the writing and flow of this book.

Went antiquing with my daughter; picked up this gem for $2 😁
Started this #BookSpinBingo #BlameItOnLitsy read over coffee this morning
A sweet story of forgiveness and letting go of perfection. I really enjoyed this.

Starting this as a little night cap before bed 📖
Holy shit I thought this book was never gonna end. It just went on and on and then on some more. It could easily lose 150-175 pages.
On the other hand, I liked the characters and even the story when it found its way out of the jungle of extraneous nonsense.

"There is a framed photograph on Lila's bedside table that she hasn't yet had the energy, or perhaps the inclination, to get rid of."

Preorders arrived just as it started dumping snow. I'll be curled up on the couch enjoying a perfect Saturday 😁
Starting off this Saturday morning with a good sob--god I love this book!
There was so much I forgot, so what a joy to reread this. But no matter how many times I read it (and it's been quite a few) when Charlie's writing start's to deteriorate the tears start flowing; and that last line......😭💔

Stole this from Poor Richard's a local indie bookstore; thought y'all would get a kick out of it! 😂
Happy Valentines Day Littens 💘

My IRL book club pick for February and I couldn't be happier, it's been over 20 years since my last reread.
A soul warming story of faith and made family.

Mini stack from Goodwill. Psyched to snag Sandwich for $1.99! 😁
They say third time's a charm. Let's hope because I just want a damn book to read! 😅
The DNFs on Blind Date books is 2 for 2.
DNFing this one because I'm not a fan of short stories, and literary fiction tries my patience; the two together are nothing but a recipe for shit reading for me.

Starting my second "Blind Date" book and hoping for better luck with this one ????
I'm finding myself wanting to clean my house rather than pick up this book 😱

Oh! And lookee there #Roses on the cover for #FeelinTheLove 😁
I didn't realize this was a murder mystery. I tried to stick it out, but I just don't care.

I liked the characters, I liked the plot, I didn't like the annoyingly obscure writing. And I kept waiting for Shane to say 'Go ahead. Make my day.' 😂
