Welcome to Litsy!

I mulled it over and eventually decided to skip my #aardvark box this month. I already have one of the books on hold and I‘m curious about Mister Magic but would rather borrow it unless I see amazing reviews rolling in, then I‘ll throw a copy in next month‘s box. If #botm didn‘t take the entire month to ship to me, I would rejoin this month to nab the Kim and the Cañas.

My first pick for #TBRDeckofCards was “bedroom” which meant I had to pick a book on one of my bedroom shelves. I‘ve had this one forever and it was the last Sarah Pekkanen book I needed to read (not including the newer thrillers she co-writes). It was good, especially if you enjoy somewhat predictable “I‘ve fallen out of love then back into love before it‘s too late” sort of stories. It has her signature snarky humor which I do enjoy. 🌟🌟🌟💫

I had my son pick my first #TBRDeckofCards pick and he picked “bedroom” (I have books on shelves and stacked up all over the house so some of my cards specify where I have to pick from). This book has been on my shelves for YEARS so I thought now was as good a time as any to give it a go! And I totally forgot it had a signed bookplate!

Chick lit. Predictable situations, predictable dialogue, predictable ending. Meh. I should have known better than to pick this up.

Anyone skipping the game for books? Looks like me, and her :)

Listened to this while I made some bookmarks. I got half way through the book and realized nothing had happened yet. Still not a very interesting book to follow. In some random places it got sad for no reason while the sad parts weren‘t all that sad. Okay, easy read.

Listening to this on audible while making more bookmarks. I‘m in a love/hate relationship with this narrator. She is the voice of multiple books I listen to. Just ordered a bunch of geodes. I wish I had them now to work on. https://www.etsy.com/listing/570554876/dragonfly-floral-stretch-ribbon-bookmark?...

Well, there it is! I skipped #botm for January - the first skip in my whole membership! I am somewhat interested in Woman in the Window and As Bright As Heaven, but since @Mdargusch and @Reviewsbylola ordered those I can borrow 🤗

With all of the amazing books I already own and need to read for challenges, this seems like the right time to take a break. Anyone else skip this month??

Sarah is one of my favorite authors (her books and her personality)! She rocks! Read this read this read this

This was the first book, our Book Club read!!! We all loved it! Sarah joined our online conversation questions! Who would not want to read a book with the best tagline! #Thefirsttimemyhusbanddied
