Pickpick

This was a sweet cozy mystery. It was fun to be part of the animals‘ woodland world, and the mystery kept me guessing. First in a series, and I will read more.

Like several other Littens, I chose this book as my January #ThematicCozies #Animal pick.

Thank you, @Chrissyreadit for sending this to me as a swap gift! 💙

Help a Litten out! I'm wanting to get back into reading challenges this year but I'm having a hard time figuring out what Litsy is hosting these days. It looks like a few I used to do aren't active anymore. Are there any I should know about? (I'm planning to do #bookspin with @TheAromaofBooks and #agathachristieclubR3 with @Librarybelle, of course!)

Picture of my dog's dumb teeth for tax!

TheAromaofBooks I'm participating in - #Pantone2025 and #FourFoursin25 with @lauredhel
- #WickedWords with @AsYouWish
- #Roll100 and #GottaCatchEmAll with @PuddleJumper
- #FictionalTraveler and #ReadorDonate with @julieclair
and my own other challenges, #ISpyBingo and #BookChain

Have you checked @LitsyEvents ? That account does a great job reposting all kinds of shenanigans!!

Ruthiella You can follow @LitsyEvents for reposts of all the challenges, etc. Good luck! 😃 1mo
AmyG There is #authoramonth @soubhiville where one reads 1+ books from that specific author for the month. #TBRTarot is where a card is chosen and you pick a corresponding book. #readyourkindle is like Bookspin but just for ereaders. Last two are with @Cbee (edited) 1mo

MatchlessMarie When I have been away from Litsyland for a while I like to check out the @LitsyEvents page for most current things. But this is a great time of year to get back into them. It‘s hard to miss challenges since we are all abuzz with New Year wishful thinking 😂 1mo
TheAromaofBooks @Librarybelle - I will be so excited to tackle another long-term project!! I actually think I'm going to complete #192025 which is pretty thrilling! 1mo
Librarybelle That‘s so cool, @TheAromaofBooks ! I still have a bit to go but need to tally up my readings from the last half of 2024. I love the long term challenges! 1mo
julieclair @LeahBergen I think it‘s more of a “wishful thinking” list! 😂 1mo

January #BookSpin and #DoubleSpin are challenge tags. I chose The Final Girl Support Group for #AVL25 because I saw a friend that I share my Libby account with has it on loan and was like heyy I have this book too wanna buddy read 😄

The tagged book is my #ReadOrDonate 📖 and is also a March 2023 #TBRTarot prompt - the 4th book in from the left side of your shelf. I got this one from a library sale around 2018 so it‘s time to read or let it go.

TheAromaofBooks Yay!! Enjoy!! 1mo
julieclair Perfect choice for #ReadOrDonate ! 1mo
