📚 Paperback!!!
📚 Read with a drink (usually a cup of tea)
📚 Print book although I'm starting to have more if an appreciation for ebooks. (I like being able to read without a light at bedtime & just having to put my book down.)
📚 Mood all the way!
📚 Fiction
📚 Hmmmm... depends on mood 😬
📚 Whenever the time allows

EadieB @Tove_Reads Some books I have found but have not gotten to yet. 5y

BookwormAHN Preston and Child's Pendergast series or any of their books are good. 5y

Andrew65 You‘re more hopeful about Brexit happening this month than I am! 5y

Tove_Reads @andrew65 I can‘t take any risks when it comes to books 😂 5y

TrishB Having a think! 5y

gradcat Okay, are you referring only to American authors? @EadieB has given you lots of options, but if you are referring to certain areas of the world, let me know. I‘m not sure which authors will become difficult to find after Brexit. Meanwhile, @Andrew65 is cracking me up re the possibility of Brexit actually happening!! 😂🤣😂 5y

Andrew65 @gradcat The country is in a total political mess, all out for themselves and not the best interests of the country. Whether you are in favour of Brexit or not a democratic vote went for it. Democracy in the U.K. is dead as the will of the people has not been actioned and not ever sure it will be. Can‘t see the point of ever voting again when democracy doesn‘t exist! @EadieB (edited) 5y

Andrew65 Payne and Jones Series by Chris Kuzneski
Roy Grace Series by Peter James
John Rebus Series by Ian Rankin
DCI Ryan Series by L J Ross
Tony Hill / Carol Jordan Series by Val McDermid
Jack Brady Series by Danielle Ramsay
Tom Kirk Series by James Twining
(edited) 5y

EadieB @Andrew65 The will of the people should prevail. If the majority voted to leave, then that‘s what should be done. 5y

Andrew65 @EadieB Exactly! Some parties now talking about virtually annulling the rest and stopping Brexit. How can that be democracy! As I say doesn‘t matter whether for or against it, it was voted for! Very bad situation all round. I can see riots and civil disobedience ahead. 5y

EadieB @Andrew65 That‘s not good! 5y

Tove_Reads @andrew65 I‘ll join the rioters if I don‘t get my books 😂 5y

Tove_Reads @gradcat Nordic books I can always get, but having problem with many others. Especially annoying when it comes to my reading the world challenge. Good thing is that I can order books to my friend‘s mother‘s address and he‘ll bring me the books four times a year. But, can‘t order 20 books there... 5y

Tove_Reads @andrew65 @eadieb Should we find three new series for 2020, now that we are almost done with our three original choices? 5y

Tove_Reads @andrew65 I bought Kuzenski, library has some. Read all Rankins. Reading James atm. 5y

EadieB @Tove_Reads Should we do some of the Nordic authors since they would be easy for you to get? @Andrew65 5y

Tove_Reads @eadieb I was thinking it would be nice to be more versatile. It wasn‘t our plan, but we‘ve been mostly reading British authors. Nothing wrong with it, there are many great ones, but why not mix it up a bit? Have you guys read Camilla Läckberg or Jo Nesbo? Been meaning to read both. @andrew65 (edited) 5y

EadieB @Tove_Reads I‘ve read a few about 3 Nesbo books and own most of them and Lackberg‘s books too. I haven't read any Lackberg's and I think @Andrew65 has read a few of both. (edited) 5y

Tove_Reads @eadieb Did we discuss jussi alder-Olsen at some point already? 5y

Tove_Reads @EadieB Have you read Lars Kepler? 5y

EadieB @Tove_Reads I have some of Jussi alder-Olsen and Lars Kepler and have wanted to read them too. Nesbo, Lackberg and these two would be great to read in 2020. Have to check with @Andrew to see if he can get these books too. 5y

Tove_Reads @andrew65 Is totally out of loop right now and have no clue what we‘re trying to make him a part of 😂 @eadieb 5y

EadieB @Tove_Reads He‘s busy working on the group read, Doomsday Key, on LibraryThing. He‘ll check in when he gets a free moment, I‘m sure! 5y

Tove_Reads @eadieb I‘ve been wanting to read Indridason for years, but I can‘t get hold of his first book ☹️ 5y

EadieB @Tove_Reads We can do him too when you get the book. I want to read him too! 5y

Tove_Reads @eadieb Will have to look for it in some other libraries and second hand bookstores. 5y

EadieB @Tove_Reads Ok so we will wait to see what Andrew thinks and you can let us know when you find the book. 5y

Andrew65 @EadieB @Tove_Reads Well you have all been busy! Eadie is right the Group Read plus a few life issues personally and at work have limited my engagement recently with much of anything! I‘m happy to read some Nordic Mysteries. I‘ve wanted to read Jussi Alder-Olsen for some time. Read first two Camilla Lackberg books that I enjoyed. Also read first Nesbo book but didn‘t enjoy that as much but happy to give them another go. Not read any Lars Kepler👇 5y

Andrew65 Or Indridason (or even heard of him or her). I‘d also like to read the Magnus Iceland mystery series by Michael Ridpath. Read the first one and really enjoyed it, who thought a mystery set in Iceland would have a strong Lord of the Rings element! Karin Fossum? Yrsa Sigurðardóttir? I also enjoyed the first one in the Kari Vaara Series by James Thompson. Will have to check which of these authors I can get hold of. @EadieB @Tove_Reads (edited) 5y

Tove_Reads @andrew65 I‘ve read both Yrsa and Karin. I Could read the first two Camilla this year unless you want to reread them. All my friends are Raging about Jo and Harry Hole, so there must be something there! @eadieb 5y

EadieB @Tove_Reads My first Nesbo book was The Snowman as they were not translated in order. That one was very good. I think the first book The Bat which @Andrew read was not the best as it is the first in the series. 5y

Tove_Reads @eadieb @andrew65 I could read the first Nesbo this year as well. 5y

Andrew65 @EadieB Yes it was the Bat. 5y

EadieB @Andrew65 I also own some Ridpath, Fossum and Yrsa books so can read those too. Don't think I have any Thompson books but my library may have them. So whatever authors both of you can get is fine with me. @Tove_Reads. Yes, my library does have some Thompson books. (edited) 5y

Andrew65 @EadieB 😱 An author that Eadie doesn‘t have in her library. 😂 This is a red letter day, that doesn‘t happen too often! @Tove_Reads (edited) 5y

EadieB @Andrew65 Guess what! Just checked out the titles of James Thompson's books and I do own Snow Angels. I do remember you telling me that you read that one. lol @Tove_Reads 5y

Andrew65 @EadieB Thought it was too good to be true! 😂 I really enjoyed that one. 5y

EadieB @Andrew65 I had no idea that he was Nordic. I just picked up the book because it was a mystery. lol 5y

Andrew65 @EadieB I think he was American, from memory, but a Nordic book as set in Iceland. 5y

EadieB @Andrew65 Ok that explains it. Usually if they are Nordic they advertise that on the cover. 5y

gradcat @Tove_Reads @EadieB @Andrew65 I would love to join in if you guys would have me. I‘ve read all of Jussi Adler-Olsen, some Lackberg, some Indridason, some Siguroardottir, all of Nesbo, some Fossum & one Yrsa. None of the others mentioned by Andrew...are we still reading Cara Black? I don‘t normally read mystery/thriller series by American authors, except for Karin Slaughter. Btw Andrew, didn‘t you guys have foreign influence in your Brexit vote?... 5y

gradcat @Andrew65 ...like we did in our 2016 Presidential vote? 5y

EadieB @gradcat Wow! You read all those! That's impressive! Yes I am still going to read Cara Black too! (edited) 5y

Andrew65 @gradcat Who knows what went on around that Brexit. But foreign interference seems to be a given these days. Impressive reading and we‘d love to have you with us. And yes still progressing through Cara Black. 5y

gradcat @EadieB & @Andrew65 Thanks very much you two...I would really love to join in on the ones I haven‘t read, and I might read some of the others that @Tove_Reads mentioned that I haven‘t read as well. Okay great re Aimée LeDuc...getting ready for

Murder in the Bastille

gradcat @EadieB I used to read so much & so fast...and I always wanted to read my favorite genre, detective novels, yet I only wanted to read the ones set in other countries...that‘s why I‘ve read so many of those. I‘m a much slower reader these days...so old!! Ha ha! No seriously, I just can‘t read as fast as I used to, but that‘s okay...I really take in more detail now. 5y

EadieB @gradcat I can‘t read fast as I love all the details and especially if I love the author‘s writing then I want to read every word! 5y

Andrew65 @gradcat Yes next Cara Black starts Tuesday 22nd. @EadieB @Crazeedi @Tove_Reads Anyone I‘m missing off for the Cara Black Books? 5y

Andrew65 @gradcat I tend to read about 40 - 50 pages an hour depends on book. With work commitments limited reading time, so possibly read a bit faster. My wife who is older than me and doesn‘t work Reads at a much steadier rate (just like Eadie) but picks up so much more. @EadieB is a total reading machine. 🙌🙌🙌😱 She does Read at a steady pace but always amazed the amount of hours she can read each day. 5y

Andrew65 @gradcat When off work and recovered from tiredness I can read anywhere between 7 and 10 hours if nothing else happening and tend to read between about 400 and 500 pages. According to my app, up to midnight last night (13th) I had read 3654 pages this month but been a particularly difficult month. Keep hoping my luck will turn around. @EadieB During #24B4Monday Readathon tend to fit in around 24 - 26 hours. 5y

Crazeedi @Andrew65 I'm in for whatever you all decide to read, I just need to know to find the books. Right now I've been caught up with Camilleris books, I'm actually making an order for number 18to 24 since my audiobooks stopped at 17. @Tove_Reads of course I'm going to recommend Donna Leon's Brunetti series, and Martin Walkers Bruno chief of police series. Also Camilleris as I've already said. Doesn't the Book depository send books all over the world👎 (edited) 5y

Crazeedi @Tove_Reads with free shipping? Why will it be a problem to get books? Anyway, I'm game for whatever. There are other books I'd recommend but having brain bleep right now 5y

Andrew65 @Crazeedi You have just zoomed through Camilleri. I joined a new library on Saturday 25 miles away and these now give me access to most of the Donna Leon books online. 👏👏👏👏😍. I really enjoyed the first one. 5y

EadieB Karin Fossum - 13 (Inspector Sejer) + 2 Standalone
Jo Nesbo - 12 (Harry Hole) 2 (Blood on Snow) + 3 Standalone
Arnaldur Indridason - 11 (Inspector Erlendur) + 2 ( Flovent and Thorson) + 1 S/A
Henning Mankell - 11(Kurt Wallander) + 14 Standalone
Lisa Marklund - 11 (Annika Bengtzon) + 1 Standalone with James Patterson
Camilla Lackberg - 10 (Patrik Hedstrom) + 2 Standalone
Maj Sjowall - 10 (Martin Beck)
Hakan Nesser - 10 (Inspector Van Veetere) + 2 5y

EadieB Jussi Adler-Olsen - 8 (Department Q) + 2 S/A Kjell Eriksson - 7 (Ann Lindell) LarsKepler-7(DetectiveInspectorJoonaLinna) James Thompson - 5 (Inspector Vaara) JorgenBrekke - 4 (Odd Singsaker) + 1 S/A 5y

Tove_Reads @Eadieb I‘m up for everything but Marklund and Markell. Remember them still well. The others I haven‘t read that much. Anne Holt is also good, but I‘ve read all of those too. Pekka Hiltunen is good as well. Leena Lehtolainen is very popular too. Sadly, my two fave Finnish authors have not been translated. (edited) 5y

Tove_Reads @Crazeedi I tend to order 20 books at a time from GB. If there is a no deal between GB and EU it‘s impossible to say when things get fixed and what‘s going to happen. Now it‘s internal market so no extra taxes, customs etc. 5y

Tove_Reads @andrew65 @Crazeedi @gradcat Can you check the list above by @EadieB and see if you can get hold of these series? 5y

Crazeedi @Tove_Reads I will check this list and see. I've been busy getting ready for trip. I'll be gone next week, will try to see who I can find and I'll check in as I can! 5y

Crazeedi @Andrew65 I am in love with Camilleri, I'm ordering the rest of the series, and I am going to pay for a subscription to watch the Italian series. I found it online through a service, its subtitled but looks good. And I read they follow the books well. Also the director was friends with Camilleri! 5y

Crazeedi @Tove_Reads @gradcat @EadieB @Andrew65 I'm ready for this reading group whatever you all decide! I'm going to investigate these new to me authors so I'm better informed! 5y

Crazeedi @Andrew65 also I make a point not to reread, but I'm going to reread Camilleri and Leon's series. Glad you found brunetti! They get better as you go, trust me, the first one was good, but they get soooo much better 5y

Andrew65 @Crazeedi In that case look forward to getting to rest of them. 5y

gradcat @Tove_Reads Okay, I‘ve mentioned before that I read all of Nesbo & Mankell, but any of the others are fine and easily obtainable for me. I‘m up for any of these. @Andrew65 I can‘t find Inspector Montalbano series...where did you find it—I‘m jealous!! 5y

1. I can't exactly answer that question! The main characters of the book, a fascinating story, a beautiful literary text, ... It's magic, something intangible! ❤📚
2. I'm an unstable collector! 😲 Today I want to collect bookmarks, before I loved stickers, and what I want tomorrow, I don't know!
3. Unfortunately I don't! (To be honest, I don't really like cooking. But I love to eat! 😋)
4. No, but I like to read poetry sometimes!

Tomorrow I will be hosting a Mystery Book Exchange. Each person is bringing a gently used book, wrapped in plain paper with clues on the outside. We'll choose numbers. The 1st person picks a book from the table. Person #2 can "steal" person #1's book or pick a different book & so on until everyone has a new book. Then we'll open & reveal our new choice. There will also be a magazine exchange table. These are some decorations. Wish me luck! ☺️

DebinHawaii Fun! Good luck! 😀👍 7y

Litsy has helped me to broaden my reading. I have tried several books that I would never have picked up on my own and really liked. I also love having a comfortable place to talk about something I'm so passionate about with people who are just as passionate. #jennasfinalproject @pocketmermaid

It's a gross and gloomy day out, so I've got my bookish pins on for a little extra pep. Let's go teach some ENGLISH! 😁 (And yes, that blinding white corner is my skin. Eventually, I'll go outside...)

I couldn't help it. Tink was staring down at my iPad, so I clicked the camera. If you follow me on Instagram (@suzzemom) I posted a video of her tail wagging. I need to go read. #Tink #catsoflitsy

RadicalReader @Suzze what's your favorite photo of Tink? 8y

Suzze @RadicalReader I have one from the Rescue that was online at Petfinder. That is how I first saw her. It's a long story. I'll have to send the pic from my computer to my tablet. When I do, I'll tag you and tell the story! 8y

So I like surprises so I'm not going to tell who won #booklove17, but I'll show you the envelopes. The bigger envelope is #1. I'll let the winners post the prizes when they get them. BTW #3, #4, and #5 all have an envelope like #2.

Kalalalatja You really know how to keep the excitement going 😄 8y

sprainedbrain I just think it's awesome that you're giving prizes for something I love to do anyway. Your photo challenges are fun! 8y

Lizpixie Doesn't matter to me about the prizes, I love that the challenges makes me look at my library a different way, and to find books I'd forgotten I had. Thankyou for all the work you put into every challenge you do.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 8y
