#MonthlyMagazineBlitz

My #HyggehourReadathon will be spent in Antarctica with Claire Keegan 🎧 while browsing old December issues for #MidwinterSolace inspiration, sipping festive tea to set the mood. 🫖

It should knock a few more chapters of my #20in4 goal. Only 5 more to hit my 20 chapters in 4 days. @Andrew65

What are your plans? 😌

AllDebooks @julieclair I'm glad I held these back from the #MonthlyMagazineBlitz now. I knew I'd need them again. Lol 😅 2w
Andrew65 You‘re doing brilliantly 👏👏👏 Spent today pulling together my books for December. (edited) 2w
julieclair Those The Simple Things magazines look gorgeous. I‘m considering an online subscription. 2w
AllDebooks @julieclair they are a joy 😊 2w

I finished another October Real Simple issue this month and made the pile slightly smaller. In the process of cleaning up some paperwork, I found a few AARP magazines from THIS YEAR that I‘ll work on for the rest of the month.

Unfortunately, I bailed on Horse. Long story short, in this case it was a bad idea to go to book club without finishing the book. Off to the donation box it goes.

julieclair I did the same thing with Horse! Went to book club without finishing the book, so ended up bailing. 😂😂🙃 3w

It‘s the last month of our year long #MonthlyMagazineBlitz ! Time to gather up our December issues from who knows how many years past, read them, and let them go.

Hopefully, all our magazine stacks/bins/baskets are looking significantly skinnier after all our efforts this year. I‘m proud of all of us for the effort we put in and the progress we made! 💪🏆🥇🙌

TheBookHippie It‘s my weekend plan! 3w
AllDebooks Browsing the December issues is making me feel really Christmassy ❄️🎄❄️ 3w

Crinoline_Laphroaig I like to save the Big White Cake recipes from Southern Living December issue. Can't remember the last time I ever made one. I just like to look at the pretty pictures. 🎂 3w
julieclair @AllDebooks I feel the same! I have a friend who has a special Christmas-themed trunk that she keeps all her December back issues in. She stores it with her Christmas decorations, so they‘re not taking up room in her living areas all year long. I love that idea, but don‘t have room to do that. 3w
julieclair @Crinoline_Laphroaig Those cakes always look so gorgeous! A friend of mine used to host a party each year, and she always made that year‘s Southern Living cake. It was a sight to behold! And always tasted great. 🎂 3w
AllDebooks @julieclair that is a great idea. I'm pinching that 😊 2w
julieclair @AllDebooks Totally! Glad to be of assistance. 😂 2w

Okay, Blitzers! It‘s time to round up all our November issues for our #MonthlyMagazineBlitz . How did everyone do in October? I, for one, managed to clean out exactly ZERO magazines. But I did get rid of approximately 6 billion mail order catalogs. 😂

TheBookHippie 😂😂😂😂 my grandson cut out what he wants from all the holiday flyers & magazines and glued it to paper …. I read zero magazines 😂😵‍💫👀🫣 2mo
Susanita The catalogs are the worst! And now we‘re entering major catalog season. 2mo
kelli7990 I haven‘t been reading any magazines and I need to because I have a lot. 2mo

julieclair @kelli7990 We‘re right there with you. 😉 Would you like me to add you to our tag list? 2mo
julieclair @TheBookHippie That‘s so cute about your grandson! 2mo

I read one issue of Real Simple this month and don‘t think I‘ll get through any more in the next couple days. Nonetheless , I‘ll keep going until they‘re all gone!

Meanwhile, I finished The Moor at Gladstone‘s and was prepared to bring it home for the newly restored LFL at the local community center. However, my hotel in Bath had an informal lending library, so I left it there.

#readordonate #monthlymagazineblitz

julieclair Good for you! How was Gladstone‘s? 2mo
Susanita @julieclair It was lovely! Good books, good food, good company. 😀 2mo

Yes, I stuck September‘s RS issues in a bag that is still sitting in my car! I did read one issue, however, as well as one more August issue before I left home.

On the other hand, I brought along the last few books I have from LFLs and finished one of them, so I found a local LFL and made a little field trip. It turned out to be quite well maintained, so I tagged it on my map app for future reference.

julieclair Sounds like good progress to me! 3mo

I started the month with six August issues and read two. Later next month I will be house sitting for some friends, and I‘ve bundled up the September issues to take with me. I might read some more August issues before I go…or I might not! #monthlymagazineblitz

Suet624 I'm impressed with your effort. I have way too many New Yorkers piled up waiting to be read. 4mo
julieclair Reading the mags while housesitting sounds like a great plan! 👍 4mo

Fellow Blitzers, it‘s time to gather up our September magazines, and prepare to transition into Fall. 🍁🍂🍁 How did everyone do in August, with the last of our Summer magazines?
