Welcome to Litsy!

Thought I‘d posted this. 🤦🏼‍♀️

My November #readyourebooks spun titles. All of them are also #SeriesLove2024 & #BookSpinBingo books & two are #Roll100 books for me. Love when challenges overlap.

Hi friends! Happy Halloween 🎃 Here is my #readyourkindle list for November and this also serves as your reminder to post your list (thank you if you already have 🤗). Happy reading! #readyournook #readyourebooks #readyourkobo

In total I read 10 books from my October #readyourebooks list. Clearing space.

Here‘s my November #readyourebooks list.

My “spun” #readyourebooks for October. I love when books cover multiple challenges. #8 is a regular #Roll100 book, #4 was rolled for #Roll100 & #CastTheDie and #9 was rolled for #Roll100.

We‘re not quite at the midway point but here‘s my (almost) mid month #readyourebooks update.
3/4 read. Of the three, Friend Zone was my favorite.

#Readyourebooks August edition

I actually finished The Holiday Reunion #6 this morning.
Friend Zone is up next.

Here‘s my August list for #ReadYourEbooks. In July, I read one from my list and one that wasn‘t on it AND I am halfway through Wolf Hall! 🥳 I won‘t finish it before the numbers are drawn tomorrow, but I‘m so glad this has helped me finally tackle it. And I like it!

My #readyourebooks list for August.

Finished six books on my #readyourebooks list in July including the four spun books.

I‘ve decided to double up many of the titles that remain on my list. I‘ll be looking to transition to fall and holiday titles in the future. This will help clear my list without having to pull titles.

Just when I‘ve gotten my ebook TBR below 900…

Here‘s the link if you‘re interested:

I‘ve read my four “spun” #readyourebooks titles for July. I‘m down to 870 unread ebooks 😳

Here are the four books assigned to the numbers @CBee spun for June.

I‘m currently reading Healing Hearts at Bumblebee Barn which is also my #TBRtarot pick for June. I love it when challenges share books. 🤓

I thought I had pasted this. 🤦🏼‍♀️

My #readyourebooks titles for May. I‘ve finished one so far this month.

My #readyourebooks list for May.

I have my list ready for the next #ReadYourEbooks number draw! This past month I managed to check off three, 2 read completely and 1 bail after 25%. So, I‘ve replace those 3 with 3 new options! Can‘t wait to see what fate has in store for me in April.

Friends! It‘s #readyourkindle #readyourebooks #readyournook day! I made it a bit easier on myself this time and used a spinner thingy 😊 Would love to see what you‘ll be reading this month! Enjoy and thanks for playing along with me 😊♥️ I‘ve been having issues with tags - please let me know if you don‘t get a notification 🙏🏻

Here are my books that correspond to the numbers drawn for #ReadYourEbooks this month. Hopefully I‘ll read more than 2 this time, and I should definitely get to Washed Away, since it was picked last month, too!

Here‘s my list for the next number draw of #ReadYourEbooks. I read two (ok, well, I bailed on one) of the books from the numbers drawn and a third because it was calling to me. I‘ve added in new titles in those slots but otherwise kept the list the same. I look forward to seeing what numbers get drawn!

@CBee has drawn the numbers for her #ReadYourEbooks challenge and here are the four on my list that have been chosen! I‘m not sure which of these I will try first, but I think it‘s a good mix. Plus, most of these have been on my Nook for a LONG time, so it‘ll be good to tackle them.

Here‘s my #readyourKindle list. Thanks for organizing this, @CBee 😸

#readyourebooks #readyournook

@CBee is starting a challenge to encourage us to #readyourebooks! So, here‘s my first list. I tried to pick a variety of books from more recent acquisitions to those languishing on my Nook for years. I‘m looking forward to getting some of these read!

Okay people! So many of you guys wanted to do this, so here we go!! I‘m tagging everyone who expressed interest, but please let me know if I missed you (I‘ve never tagged 50 people at once before 🤪😂). Keep your eyes peeled for another post to come with instructions for the challenge! Who‘s excited? 😊

Anyone working with BookTasters on Twitter? So far I've read and reviewed 1 book. I don't read on my phone but I made it a priority for a free book and I can choose out of a list of 9 when I complete a review on Goodreads.

1. Only if it‘s all I have with me.

2. I like reading on my iPad. I use the Bluefire app to read Advance copies from Edelweiss. I like it because it tells me next to each title how many days I have left to read it.

1) Only if I don‘t have a paper copy or my tablet with me.

2) my Samsung tablet, as I have access to the ebooks from my library but also those that I have purchased.

Does anyone have a good recommendation for a Kindle Paperwhite (10th generation) cover?

My current cover has not been allowing “sleeping” and is running my battery down constantly. 🙄

I‘ve heard it‘s best to buy an Amazon Kindle cover (my current one is not made by Amazon), but I‘ve noticed even those have some mixed reviews.

Any advice? TIA!

#bookspin #doublespin #bookspinbingo Since this is my vacation month…I had this on the ready for a while now!!! Nearly all are e-books other than my #sundaybuddyread and my #potteraday. Leaving 21-25 as free spaces. Needless to say I think this will be my best chance at actually getting a bingo! @TheAromaofBooks

Thanks for the tag @jenniferw88.

My Kindle cover is bright green with this owl sticker on it.

My favourite thing about eBooks is that they are easier to read than physical books: one handed, no fuss when turning the pages, can highlight easily, no bookmark needed. Perfect for falling asleep reading. 😁

Birthday gift from my mom was an e-reader 👌🏼 I finally decided on a Kobo Libra H20 since it‘s a) not Amazon and b) loads library books!

Hello Littens, especially you Kindle-Paperwhite users:

I keep doing “something” (assuming it is me?!) that resets the font to the tiniest smallest number. What am I doing? It seems like I do complicated steps to get it back to a readable font so ... I am stumped.

Any helpful guidance would be appreciated. And sympathy too. 😂👓🔎

Which one do you like better? After the pain of moving way too many boxes of books I‘m seriously considering getting an e-reader. I like the idea of a non-Amazon option but it seems like Amazon has better options and e-book sales??

I have a few questions for those of you Kindle owners who subscribe to Kindle Unlimited.

Do you feel that it‘s worth the price? Are you pleased with the amount/variety of ebooks offered? Do they offer more recent books, or are they mostly older ones?

I subscribed YEARS ago when the service was fairly new and wasn‘t impressed with the offerings. Thinking I might give it another try.

TIA...💕

As is right 😀

Wow. I wonder if this could mean cheaper ebooks in the future. I guess there was already a lawsuit against Apple that lead to cheaper ebooks until Amazon cut in.

For those that purchase ebooks and are looking for a way to support indie bookstores instead of Jeff Bezos, I discovered Hummingbird and their My Must Reads app today from my local indie‘s website! The app is available on from Apple and Google Play, and apparently you can also download it onto Kobo, Nook, and Kindle devices, but I put it on my iPad. Since my bank keeps freezing my credit card when I use Kobo, I‘m happy about this. 😊

I always have a tablet/ereader to #accompany me everywhere.

1. Somewhat... I read most books as ebooks from the library because it‘s convenient and free, but when it comes to actually buying books I usually only buy ebooks if it‘s a Kindle deal so the price is significantly marked down, otherwise I‘d rather buy the physical book and just get it used if I‘m on a budget.

I‘m a bit of a gadget freak and have had a variety of e-readers including Nook, Nook Glowlight, Kindle, Kindle Fire, and Kindle Paperwhite (which was my favorite). Meet my latest acquisition. It‘s not the newest Oasis ; it‘s the previous generation, but it‘s new to me. I‘m excited to see if I like it as much as the Paperwhite. Also, I think the case I got for it is so pretty. 😊

Littens could I get your opinions please?

Those who buy and read ebooks a lot which company do you buy from and why? (Amazon, B&N, Kobo, etc.)

I‘ve used Amazon Kindle for years and have quite an extensive library but am considering if I should make the switch to another provider. Thoughts?

Thanks! ☺️

I need some advice for a friend who wants to get an e reader for her textbooks (she‘s a university teacher). Vitalsource bookshelf is the programme she uses@on her computer and she wants something compatible. #ereader #textbooks #advice.

I read ebooks too but this story makes me sad. 😢https://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/industry-news/publisher-news/article/80694-pearson-kills-print-textbooks.html
