Welcome to Litsy!

My #BookSpin list for January 2025! It‘s mostly fresh picks with only a few veterans from last year.

I‘m excited for this new year of reading. I‘m going to focus strongly on reading books I own so I should be able to get to more books from this challenge than previous years. My personal library needs a serious clearing out. 😅

And that‘s a wrap for 2024 #bookspin! I only had one book that I didn‘t finish in the selected month (River Mumma). Always a fun challenge to help keep me on top of my reading goals. A huge thank you to @TheAromaofBooks for hosting.

(Seeing the books altogether makes me realize how many genres I cover.)

Midmonth check in. It‘s going well.

#Bookspin #BookspinBingo

How my December #bookspinbingo progress has been going so far. I've found myself having less and less reading time as the month progresses, but I suppose it's to be expected. There's always something going on, somewhere to be, and something to do, which makes my social anxiety/anti-peopling/anti-christmas heart and brain go haywire, but I'd do anything for my little monsters

#BookSpin #DoubleSpin #BookSpinBingo will be BACK for 2025!!! Believe it or not, this will be our FIFTH YEAR spinning together!! I spontaneously created this challenge on January 1, 2020 - the reason I draw the numbers on the 2nd of the month is literally because it was too late to draw them on the 1st when I first came up with this 😂 Since then we've added #DoubleSpin and #BookSpinBingo to keep things lively.

A bit late posting, but here is my December #BookSpinBingo card

My #BookSpin is Twelve Slays of Christmas
And my #DoubleSpin is A Christmas in Prague

Here's my December #bookspin bingo card. I can't wait to do this in 2025.

@TheAromaofBooks

Here's my #bookspinbingo board for DECEMBER 2024.

@TheAromaofBooks

Finally starting to feel better so I put together my #BingoBoard for December!

#BookSpin Stars Uncharted, #DoubleSpin Nothing but Blackened Teeth

#Roll100 Calamity Jane, Bad Feminist, The Oathbound

#OokBOokClub Monstrous Regiment

#BeyondTheYellowBrickRoad The Wizard of Oz

#LitsySciFiBookClub Stars Uncharted

#QueerBC Nothing but Blackened Teeth

#SeasonalCozies A Cup of Holiday Fear

Since I didn't read many books last month, I only had to fill in a few selections for December. I'm still late. 😆 #StoryOfMyLife
#bookspinbingo @TheAromaofBooks

Here‘s my #bookspinbingo picks for December. My #bookspin pick is a mood read and my #doublespin is a #readyourkindle book. I forgot to fill in my graphic I made last month for my picks and I almost forgot to post this month‘s picks. I‘m not picking the books right now. It‘ll be whatever books I end up choosing.

And here's my #bookspinbingo card for December. Feeling good about finishing 2024 strong.

Thanks for hosting @TheAromaofBooks !

Technically I finished The Brass Verdict in December but I read most of it in November ☺️

@TheAromaofBooks

My #BookSpinBingo card. I need to figure out what I'm reading for #BookSpin (old fav) and #DoubleSpin (LibbyLoan) also working on Nov #DoubleSpin - @TheAromaofBooks

I found out today that I had access to the paid version of Canva through work. *HAD*, as in past tense, because the contract expired or some sh*t. Oh, well, I guess it‘s good that I don‘t know what I‘m missing.

Last Bingo board of the year! I know I say this every month, but December 2024 REALLY is the month I get a Bingo. 😂

#BookspinBingo

Finally, here‘s my #BookSpinBINGO list for December. I would love to get to all of these—plus three #BookSpin and #DoubleSpin picks I missed from previous months. Wish me luck!

Here‘s my November #BookSpinBINGO board. More reading this month.

Just noticed I forgot to post my October #BookSpinBINGO board. Busy month!

Here‘s my #bookspinbingo board for December. I‘ve chosen a Winter theme instead of a Christmas theme because my dog passed away on October 25 and I‘m not in the Christmas spirit. I‘m trying my best to find the joy but I don‘t feel like celebrating anything. I‘m okay with reading books set during the Winter but I don‘t want to read anything Christmas themed this year. Maybe I‘ll be in a better mood next year.

Here‘s my #bookspinbingo list for this month. I don‘t know if there‘s going to be a book this month for the #whimsicalreadsbookclub because one hasn‘t been announced or voted on yet but if that ends up happening then I‘ll probably count it on my list as a mood read or I‘ll add it to a free space on my bingo board.

Final #BookSpin & #DoubleSpin books of the year.

#NovemberRecap No bingos. I finished my #BookSpin and got about halfway through my #DoubleSpin, but I will finish it this month. I haven't made my list yet, so I am going to look at the #December numbers after I do that :)

@TheAromaOfBooks

My #BookSpinBingo card for December is ready.

My #BookSpin is the children‘s picture book “The Night Before Christmas”

My #DoubleSpin is the 3rd in the Dream Harbor series

The numbers are definitely telling me to read Christmas books this season

#bookspinbingo

November‘s #BookSpinBingo board reveals that I got zero bingos and haven‘t yet finished reading my spins, but I did manage to fill all my free spaces! 😂

Favorites for the month—two very different genres!
Freak the Mighty by Rodman Philbrick
Reading Genesis by Marilynne Robinson (which was my September #BookSpin)

Here we go!

Intermezzo and Stories from the Tenants Downstairs

Ready for December! #bookspin is Kill Your Darling, #doublespin is Butter, and #castthedie include Kill Creek, Home Truths, Black Sheep, and Brat. This month will be busy, but hopefully I'll find some time to read, too.

@TheAromaofBooks @PuddleJumper

My completed November #bookspinbingo card. No bingos, but I completed my #bookspin and #doublespin titles.

@TheAromaofBooks

I keep telling myself it‘s good that I got two of the longer #toblonglist books for my #bookspin and #doublespin because I have the time to read them this month. Yeah, we‘ll go with that…😂 My motto has been lately “If you can‘t say it in under 300 pages, is it worth saying?” 😬😂 …Some authors disagree with me. 🤷🏻‍♀️

December #bookspin and #doublespin picks.
@thearomaofbooks

December is the month I usually do #bookspinbingo. I just tried using canva to make the card, and it went…okay. Oh well! I‘ll enjoy paring down all the books I‘ve bought this year (errr…this month, too 🫢🤫). #toblonglist #aardvark

Here are my#bookspin and #doublespin reads for December: some vintage science fiction and a cozy mystery featuring a former German chancellor. Looking forward to both.

Thanks, @TheAromaofBooks !
