Welcome to Litsy!

Sorry for the spam, everyone, but I‘m not quite done gushing over my #DystopianBlues gifts, and these clever little #bookmarks deserve to be shown off.

@Betty how cool!!!! I‘m about to tuck in and read this. Thank you so much!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Omg!!! @PandaPanda You have truly done such an amazingly thoughtful job with this swap. The books are great. I‘ve had Ready Player One on my TBR forever. I can‘t wait to try the face masks & the Alice socks are fabulous. Even the card is beautiful. But the very best part of my #dystopianblues surprise is the amazingly generous Audible gift you gave me!!! Getting that email was truly the highlight of my day, probably my month! 😹Thanks again!

Today was a long stressful day. I drove to Oklahoma & back which isn‘t far but with 2 small kids isn‘t totally a blast. When I got home I was so excited to see that @kamoorephoto had already opened her box! So I had to open mine! I am EXCITED! I haven‘t read any of them and I can‘t wait to see what they are all about! As for the “extra” goodies I‘m stoked!!! I love the bag most of all!!! Thanks so much and I hope you enjoy your box as well!!

@Tiffy_Reads I am so in love with these bookmarks!!! What an awesome stack of books. Thank you thank you!!!!

Love, love, love, my #dystopianblues goodies from @Wbabdullah !!! You did and amazing job and I love everything! And that fabulous book mark though!!! 😍😍😍😍 I can‘t wait to try out the chocolate tea? That‘s right, I said chocolate tea! I‘m definitely down for a buddy read. Thank you so much!!! 💕💕💕💕

First off, these salted caramel goodies are NOT going to last an hour. They are AMAZING. @slategreyskies I‘m so in love with the necklace and the teas and the pen! And the booooks, thank you so very very much!!!

@Betty Thanks for the bonus goodie! I am excited to read this short story! I think I am going to start it this morning!

@aprilpohren I am laughing so hard about the puzzle. I LOVE it and am beyond thrilled to own one myself now!!! Thank you so much!! I‘m in love with my socks and the mermaid bookmark is AMAZING! I can‘t wait to tuck in with these books and a cup of tea. EVERYTHING is amazing. Thank you so very very much!!!!

@Betty - I love this wrapping paper!

Thank you, Betty! I opened the box and the package and found everything beautifully wrapped. I had to fight off one of the cats to keep her from the Tootsie Pops. And I had to fight off my mom as well.

Just a quick reminder!
#dystopianblues book swaps open date is Thursday. If you have received your package please let me know by tagging me in a photo of your package.
If you have not sent your package out PLEASE be respectful of your match and mail it out or let me know.
Thank you littens! I am so excited!!!

@CoffeeK8 Your #DystopianBlues box is on the way, a little late due to technical difficulties, but don‘t worry, I think it‘ll get there by the 25th!

@A_planNerd it‘s here! Thank you! I can‘t wait til Thursday! I hope your box has arrived, the post office said you should have gotten it last Tuesday. Let me know!
Thanks for making this swap happen @Mommamanzi

A big thank you to @melrailey for the #dystopianblues gifts. Now I just have to be patient. Is it Thursday yet?

@ReadingRover it's here!! This box is adorable! Did you get the one I sent?

@Mommamanzi #dystopianblues

Came home to my #dystopianblues package!!! Woo hoo!

Be on the lookout because mail is on the way to MA to a special Litten for the #dystopianblues book swap. I forgot to take a pic of the box before I sent it but luckily it‘s pretty distinctive & I found a pic of it online. I used my Pusheen fall box 😉.

Going to the post office after nap time to drop these 3 packages off! #muglove #cupidgoespostalkids and the third and final #dystopianblues
REMEMBER! #dystopianblues open date is the 25th of this month. Please send your package out accordingly!!! I can‘t wait for opening day!

This swap was lots of fun to stalk and shop for!

On it‘s way to my match now... should reach its destination on Saturday. 😃

#dystopianblues

Going in the mail today! Should be there on time. #dystopianblues @Mommamanzi

@Mommamanzi my #dystopianblues is in the mail!

Sending off my #dystopianblues ! So excited!

#dystopianblues book swap package number two is on its way. Penelope got to go to the post office twice today and is the happiest little girl EVER!

Eeeek! Look what just arrived! Thank you @LA_Mead I can‘t wait to see what‘s inside! #dystopianblues

To my swap match- I recently added a bunch of dystopian books to my Litsy TBR. I don‘t own anything on my Litsy TBR. I am happy with used books.
1-3 no preference
4- scientific
5- resource scarcity
6- heroine
7-8 no preference
(I am really not picky!)
💚faves- Hunger Games, Handmaid‘s Tale, 1984, Book of the Unnamed Midwife
💚movie- Mad Max Fury Road is all I can think of now...
I‘m also all about zombies, and consider them in genre.

Time for #DystopianThisorThat
1. Govt is evil
2. Think 🤔
3. Babies 👶🏼
4. Scientific
5. Scarcity
6. Either 🚻
7. Umm 🤷🏽‍♀️
8. Triumph 🎊
💚 The Circle, the Passage, Ready Player One
💚 Dark City is amazing ...
(But FYI, with most, if not all, of my answers.. I am happy with either!)

One of my fav littens @Mommamanzi is organizing another swap!! I'm in, are you?

I‘m participating in the #dystopianblues bookswap hosted by @Mommamanzi ! Are you?

Here‘s a potentially helpful link for a list of female authors‘ dystopian books! :

I‘d be happy to read any of these! I haven‘t heard of most of them. The description that‘s grabbed me the most is Gather the Daughters.

PS- I will immediately update my Litsy TBR after the winter solstice swap!

I'm in! Just signed up 😄 Looking forward to the #dystopianblues book swap! Thanks @Mommamanzi for setting this up!

@Mommamanzi has put together an amazingly fun sounding book swap! Thank you! Make sure to check it out if you are a lover of dystopian books! Another of my favorite genres! #dystopianblues

I know a lot of holiday swaps are happening. I also know January will hit me and I'll be kind of bummed it's all over. I am in the middle of planning a dystopian book swap for January 2018 to get rid of those holiday blues. Let me know if you're interested please!

If trump was a badly written dystopia that got DNF'd by everyone. 😂
