My box is here! I was starting to get a little anxious that it wasn‘t here yet. Woo it‘s all good. #allhallowreadswap #ahrs

MaleficentBookDragon Yay, sorry. I hope it was worth the wait. As the organizer, you‘d think I‘d be a little more prompt. But you‘d be wrong. Just ask my family, who get their Xmas presents either the day before, or the day after, Xmas. I am a hopeless case. 😬😂 3y
MommyOfTwo No worries, it got here on time so your good 😊 3y

J. Robert Lennon is a genius. You're never really sure where you're going, but you're excited to go.
A former physics PhD student has a nervous breakdown, attacks a teacher, and falls in love with his psych nurse. They divorce, he becomes a mailman, then he gets addicted to reading the townspeople's mail. Things go wrong almost from the start in a way that's hilarious, sad, upsetting, worrying, and captivating.
J. Robert Lennon...yeah, man.

Crazeedi Welcome to litsy!! Hope you enjoy this great place, ask questions if you need anything!!🎉🎉 4y
Circlejxrk I checked out some books by this author after reading your reviews. So far I have Broken River and See You in Paradise. Both seem promising, and definitely the type of writing I'm always looking for. I'm going to now look through your books on here and see what other gems I can find. Do you have a goodreads account? 4y
Christopher_Tallon @Circlejxrk I do, but it's not been well maintained as of late. I'll make note to get that back in shape!

Christopher_Tallon @Circlejxrk There. It's a little better. I'll keep on it though. (One more thing... 😂) 4y

Ugh, so this package has been lost for over two weeks! They finally found it today. I ordered additional cards for #jb notes from amazon (as well as more essential oil blends). Thank goodness! Because it's already been a bad day at work!

robinb I recently had a damaged package from Amazon that had to be sent back to them before it even made it to me! 😩 And what made it even worse was that they didn‘t automatically re-send or even check with me to see if I still wanted it. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I had to stay on top of it and do all the legwork myself. 6y
vkois88 Sorry they're inconsiderate 😕 6y
tracey38 @robinb that's horrible! I don't get why they do things like that... @vkois88 they are. I had to put in two "missing mail" tickets, too. Ugh 6y
tammysue I‘m happy to see your package finally arrived. Hoping your day gets better and you‘ll have a great evening! 👍🏻😘 6y
tracey38 @whatshesreadingnow it went ok. But now I'm home and can replax and read. 😉📖 6y
