1. Yup, to my husband.
2. Not really. I do believe in having deep connections with people, which can be platonic too. But do I believe there‘s only one person out there for everyone? No. Love is hard work and ultimately revolves around the daily choices we make to stick it out with someone.
3. Someone making me dinner for a change lol and spending time with my husband.

Is there any interest in a #ValentinesDaySwap or #AntiValentinesDaySwap? If so, please respond with which swap you're interested in. I am up for hosting one of them if there's enough interest. #LitsySwap

Deblovestoread Either sounds fun! 10mo

WildAlaskaBibliophile Rethinking this...it's cutting it pretty short to arrange this in time for Valentine's Day, so I'll put it on my calendar for next year! 10mo

Another cute comic by Anna Holak. The art in this is so vibrant! It‘s a cute story about a Valentine‘s Day heartbreak getting turned on it‘s head.
P.S.- How do others deal with books/indie publications that are not in the database. My best thought is to tag a related book as I have done here, but I feel like that can get weird with these little zine-like comics and such. Thoughts?
#greekcomics

Bookwomble Add it to Library Thing, as that's where Litsy gets it's database from, then in Litsy search results click on the option to flag a book for inclusion. It can still take months for it to come through, so it depends how bothered you are about being able to go back and re-tag old posts. I'm afraid I feel compelled to do that shit! 1y

psalva @Bookwomble Thank you! This is really helpful. I am the same way and I will definitely do that :) 1y

I know we're still recovering from all the holiday swaps, but is anyone interested in a Valentine's Day swap? I would be happy to host it if so! I'm envisioning a low-key swap (think #JolabokaflodSwap), where you are only responsible for sending one book and some chocolate/candy. You could sign up for more than one match if you'd like.

Please comment below if you would be interested. If there is enough interest, I'll create a sign-up this week!

aperfectmjk I always want to participate in the swaps but I don't have the ability to go to the Post Office due to the hours I work. Would this be one of those swaps where you could send it directly from the merchant such as Amazon or Barnes & Noble? 4y

iread2much I love that idea, and if it‘s just chocolate and book, we can totally buy from B&N or Amazon which will make it really easy. 4y

Repost for @4thhouseontheleft :

I'm in the mood for a holiday-centric reading challenge in Feb, so I put together a BINGO sheet! 💖A book can count for 1+ prompts!

If you would like to participate in a Feb theme read (so many holidays to choose from: 💗-Day, Black History Month, & President's Day in the US), I would love for you to join in! Just use #FancifulFebruary & tag me in your posts.

Psst...1 of these is also a #booked2020 prompt! 😉
