Welcome to Litsy!

One of my goals each year is to read books outside of the US. I would really like to get to more that are also not English (country not language) next year. But for 2024 I am super pleased!
My goal was to read less than 55% from the US, and I read 45% - 10% better than I had hoped! Overall I read from 26 other countries. I learned so much about the Sri Lankan civil war, a bunch about South African rugby, and found that French books are my jam!

My #Top9 reads for 2024❤️❤️❤️

#top24of24 I feel like I‘ve been on a streak of really good books this year - lots of 4.5/5 star reads.

I love love love to re-read favorite books. These are my favorite re-reads from 2024.

In no particular order these are my 5 star reads from 2024 (so far.)

I wanted to read more non fiction this year so I‘m happy to see a handful of those titles on my list.

This doesn‘t include re-reads which I‘ll do next.

put this list together for a challenge over on instagram, but it works for #24in2024 here, too. really hoping to read a lot of my own books this year 🤞🏻

January 1st of the #wintergames Photo Challenge - New Year‘s

Last night, I watched this show and I‘m going to count it as a #holidayshow. I enjoyed this show. I also drank last night. I was celebrating the holiday. I drank a mini bottle of Butterscotch Liqueur and drank 2 glasses of spiked punch. I spiked my tropical punch with Vodka. That was enough alcohol for me to get a buzz. When I woke up today, I felt hungover.

Happy New Year!!

I‘m trying to keep it light this year.
I‘m not going to set a book goal (this worked last year).
I‘m going to participate in #AAM, #Bookspin #Doublespin, and #SeriesLove2024 again.
I‘m going to continue my attempt to read Stephen King in publication order, but not set a number goal this time.
This year I asked my husband to pick 6 books he wants me read. These are already on my TBR I just never get to them, so I have ⬇️

I have been contemplating the challenges I want to participate in next year. Like many Littens I have so many neglected books on my own shelves that I always intend to get to and never quite do. So I decided to create my own challenge, 24 unread books pulled off my shelves that I intend to finish before the end of 2024. If anyone is interested in joining in, let me know. #24in2024

Keeping the #readinggoals for 2024 super simple. 💙

I‘m feeling overwhelmed by my Netgalley TBR for 2024 so I decided to organize it using these trackers that someone I follow on Instagram posted. Now, I can look at these trackers every month and see what I need to read. I‘m excited about all of these books. Will I be able to read them all on time? I will do the best I can. That‘s all I can do.

Hey everyone! We‘re happy to announce we have some changes for next years #BacklistReadathon challenge ☺️ Take your time to see what option works best for you, and be sure to tag us in your 2024 planning!
