The Lost Bookshop | Evie Woods
post image

I finished assembling this tiny bookshop before I started THE LOST BOOKSHOP, but let‘s pretend the two overlapped so I‘ve got an excuse to show it to you, and to tell you I‘m enjoying the book. It‘s got a solid emotional core, and I‘m assuming there‘s magic to the shop itself as well as to Martha‘s perceptions about people. Intriguing. #audiocrafting

Mimi28 Awesome 😎 2w

Kenyazero Super cute. This looks like it was fun to assemble! 2w

An Unexpected Peril | Deanna Raybourn
post image

I got through a big chunk of the tagged book while I worked on this miniature living room/balcony combo destined for my aunt. The Veronica Speedwell series remains a lot of fun. I‘m glad this instalment puts me past my library‘s audio bottleneck at long last so I can listen to them at a decent clip again! #audiocrafting

ImperfectCJ That miniature room is fantastic! I keep thinking I want to make one of these, but there are so many options that I can't decide on one to do. 4w
Ruthiella Oh, I love that! ❤️ 4w

xicanti @ImperfectCJ there are definitely a lot of kits out there. I‘ve purchased a few new book nook-style ones (they slip into your bookshelves; convenient for storage!), but I lucked into this one at the thrift store. The original owner had obviously tried to follow the very first instruction in the booklet, said, “Oh god, NO,” and donated it. 4w
xicanti @Ruthiella @dabbe @MemoirsForMe thanks, everyone! It was fun to do. 4w
Kenyazero This looks like a super fun one! 4w
xicanti @Kenyazero it was great to do a room with so many books in it! The couch was about 500% easier than the last couch I made, too. This flocked stuff is so much better to work with than faux-grain leather. 4w

I can‘t seem to sit down and read with my eyeballs this week, but I made it through some audio material while I did stuff like transform this boring little Ikea table into an interesting nightstand!

A friend discovered WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU? by chance last week, loved it, and recced it to me. Now we‘re both running around telling people they‘ve gotta read it. It‘s illuminating for anyone who wants to better understand society. #audiocrafting

Ruthiella Very cute table! 🤩 2mo
xicanti @Ruthiella thanks! 2mo

The Way of Kings | Brandon Sanderson
post image

I found this wooden cello puzzle the day after I did the Big Ben one, and I worked it up while I continued my audio WAY OF KINGS reread. It was quick and fun, and now I‘ve gotta decide who to give it to. I don‘t think I know any hardcore cello enthusiasts.

I‘ve also gotta find other things to do while I listen to the last 30% of the book, because now I‘m all out of wooden puzzles. On to regular jigsaw puzzles, I guess? #audiocrafting

TobeyTheScavengerMonk I‘ve decided that 2025 is going to be my year of the Stormlight Archive! Gonna revisit 1 & 2, then onward through 5 (including the interstitial novellas). Part of it is waiting until the first 5 are done, part of it is because they are too big for my brain to retain everything unless I take them at a sprint. Bridge 4 4 life. 3mo
xicanti @TobeyTheScavengerMonk this sounds like an excellent plan. I plan to reread the first four over the next few months to coincide with whenever I‘m able to get a digital copy of the fifth one. I MIGHT reread the novellas, but I don‘t feel especially compelled to. 3mo

The Way of Kings | Brandon Sanderson

I got an express audio copy of THE WAY OF KINGS, which is a LOT to listen to in one week, which is why I‘ve done three wooden puzzles in the last three days and also scrubbed the whole kitchen.

This light-up Big Ben (& associated tower) went to my mum, who‘s mighty taken with it. #audiocrafting

BennettBookworm Woah!! Can I ask what company this puzzle is from? It‘s so beautiful 3mo
xicanti @BennettBookworm they‘re called Rolife. They produce a huge variety of wooden puzzles and also a whole village of miniature building kits. 3mo
BennettBookworm So cool! Thanks! 3mo

#Audiocrafting! I‘m a huge minions fan and put together this kit while listening. The instructions are only in Japanese (I believe), which I do not read or speak, which made it a little more challenging, but I was up to the task! Even Bindi wants a look! 😂

julesG 😍😍 4mo
squirrelbrain Bindi wants an upside-down look - trying to figure out what you made and if it‘s for her! 🤣 4mo
Mollyanna I think Bindi is waiting for you to give it to her 🐶❤️ 4mo
Hooked_on_books @squirrelbrain @Mollyanna Bindi sees the world as her toy box, so she totally thinks it‘s for her! 😂 4mo

Honey and Spice | Bolu Babalola
post image

Just building a tiny house for my aunt and her grandkids, as you do.

I like HONEY AND SPICE overall, especially now I‘m a fair ways in, but the setup almost put me off it at first. Even though it‘s extremely British, Kikiora makes sense of her university via so many stereotypes it feels like a US high school novel, and y‘all know those are a hard sell for me. There‘s a serious meat market vibe to the dating aspect, too. #audiocrafting

xicanti Babalola‘s wring is very witty, though, and she does interrogate some of the stereotypes as the book gains steam. That saved it for me. 5mo
