Dolly I watched as much as I could and even tried to fill in missed testimony on PBS. 5y
LMJenkins I‘ve been watching a lot too. 5y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Dolly @LMJenkins It really is fascinating to watch. And for all the people that complain about the “Deep State” I couldn‘t have been more impressed with the intelligent and diplomatic chops of the career foreign service that service through multiple administrations. The political appointee was such a stark contrast. 5y
Redwritinghood Same here. 5y
alisiakae I‘ve been listening a lot on NPR as well. 5y

#AnglophileApril #BookishConfession #NeverEver have I read these popular books....I‘ve tried a few but bailed on every one 🙈🙊which popular book/series have you #NeverEver read????

vivastory I love a good #bookishconfession I've #neverever read Harry Potter, although I do love Galbraith (aka Rowling's) Cormoran Strike series 6y
Clwojick All of those! Lol. I read the first 4 HP books, but bailed on the 5th. Never read any of the others at all though. (edited) 6y
LeahBergen Hmm 🤔 Game of Thrones? 6y

LeahBergen Eat, Pray, Love. I thought I wouldn‘t be able to stomach it. 😆 6y
BiblioLitten @LeahBergen Me neither. Also, Mortal Instruments 6y
batsy @LeahBergen Same to both of your answers 😆 6y
batsy I've also never read the Outlander series or the Divergent series or the Maze Runner series or a single John Green book 😁 6y
rretzler I refuse to read Twilight 6y
julesG Game of Thrones. Tried it. Couldn't get into it. Like @batsy Divergent, didn't even try. Same with Maze Runner and John Green. 😁 6y
Lovesbooks87 I have never read all of the books that you have pictured! 6y
Cinfhen Woohoo!!! I‘m NOT a literary oddball after all!!!!! YOU ARE ALL MY PEOPLE XX @vivastory @Clwojick @LeahBergen @BiblioLitten @batsy @rretzler @julesG @Lovesbooks87 and I haven‘t read ANY of the other books you all mentioned 😜 6y
Cinfhen Oh wait @julesG and @batsy I did read FIOS by Green but I thought the movie was better 😁 (edited) 6y
jenniferw88 For those who have said Game of Thrones, it took me to near the end of book 1 to become a fan... 6y
jenniferw88 And I refuse to read Twilight! 6y
Megabooks I haven‘t read any of those either. I also have never read anything by Stephen King! 😬😳 6y
Cinfhen You‘re not into vampires @jenniferw88 ??? I‘ve read 2 King novels @Megabooks and they were just ok for me. I read Joyland and 6y
jenniferw88 @Cinfhen I am, but I'm not into romance novels or sparkly vampires! 😂😂😂 i like Kim Newman's series on vampires, starting with 6y
Cinfhen Hahaha @jenniferw88 I love that #SparklyVampires 🧛🏼‍♀️🧛‍♂️ 6y
TrishB I haven‘t read Twilight 😁 but I‘ve been made to watch the films. I‘ve read all the others. Like @jenniferw88 I like scary vampires! 6y
Kalalalatja I have never read LoTR, and any crime/mystery series you can think of gets a big no from me as well 😄 6y
Chrissyreadit #bookishconfessions I‘ve read and loved all of those books.... 6y
Seekingtardis I tried the first Outlander book and I just couldn‘t. I got about 1/3 into it and had no idea what happened so I just put it away! 6y
KarenUK LOTR and Outlander..... never even tried.... also I‘ve never read Stephen King... 🙀 (edited) 6y
emilyhaldi I‘ve tried and bailed on all of them too! (Except LOTR). I don‘t have the patience for series I suppose 🤷🏻‍♀️ 6y
erzascarletbookgasm 🙋‍♀️☝️😬..I think my emojis are self explanatory! 😂 6y
Mdargusch I have never ever tried the top two series. 🙅🏼‍♀️ 6y
Clwojick @Megabooks Same! The only Stephen king book that I read what Shawshank, and its not even really a traditional “scary SK” book 6y
Melissa_J I‘ve never read the 50 shades books, I bailed on the Twilight series after the first book, and couldn‘t make it past the halfway point in the first LOTR book (love the movies though). I have read five of the Outlander books though, but don‘t have much interest in continuing. I love Harry Potter 🤷🏻‍♀️ 6y
StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego I've read Hunger Games and have started Outlander. But I have never read or seen Harry Potter. 6y
Reviewsbylola You bailed on Hunger Games?!? What kind of heathen are you!! 6y
Reviewsbylola What?!? @megabooks Granted, I‘m not a huge SK fan, but definitely try 6y
Reviewsbylola As for the other series you mentioned Cindy, I‘ve read 1-2 from each of them except LOTR. I‘m not at all interested in that one! 6y
BiblioLitten @batsy Me neither. 😁 6y
Megabooks @Reviewsbylola That‘s the one I‘ve thought about trying! 6y
BarbaraBB I have read HP and liked it but all the others don‘t appeal to me at all. I did read a few SK but have sworn to #neverever do that again. The man is such a cliché. I mean the people in his books are. So annoying. 6y
RohitSawant I've been meaning to read Harry Potter for years now. 6y
britt_brooke I‘ve read Twilight, Hunger Games, and LOTR (this one just so my husband would stop badgering me). I‘ll eventually read HP if/when my sons are ready. I read the first one years back but didn‘t feel the need to continue then. Generally speaking, I‘m not usually one for series. 6y
Suet624 I haven‘t read any of those either. And I‘m okay admitting that! 6y
Cinfhen Seems like we‘re in good company @suet624 😍 6y
Cinfhen I love that you‘re waiting to read HP with your boys @britt_brooke 💚💚 6y
Cinfhen And I enjoyed hearing all of your #BookishConfessions @Clwojick @Melissa_J @StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego @Reviewsbylola @BiblioLitten @BarbaraBB @rohit-sawant makes me feel validated in a weird way 😉😜🥳 6y

Tove_Reads Love that place! 6y

Mitch @squirrelbrain oh yes! All 5 floors! 6y
TrishB Ah....Foyles ❤️ 6y
Mitch @julesG I‘m planing on falling into it very soon! 6y

How accurate is this? This is sooooo me.

somebooksaround @Sorceryandswords 😂😂😂 relatable! 7y
LoveToReadLiveToRead So very true! My mum was visiting me this weekend and saw two books on my shelves that she wanted to read. I told her to take them but she “no, it‘s okay, I‘ll wait until you‘ve read them”. Okaaay, well I might get to them at some point this decade! 😂 7y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa Sounds about right! First I have to read every other book I‘ve said that about first! 😂 #BookishConfessions 7y

I have no strong opinions about deckled edges either way. Instead, I have a thing for richly textured end papers. This kids‘ book just makes me want to hold it in my hands. #bookishconfessions

Tamra This is TBR - heard great things! 7y
emtobiasz @Tamra I‘m really enjoying it so far. It feels at once very familiar and very fresh to me. 7y

Who else has done this? I listened to Library Audio CDs on the way to Sunday Morning Yoga and while running errands. Was so into it that I bought Kindle edition when I got home. Wanted to finish & Audio wasn't going to work with menfolk in & out of house. My Library didn't have Kindle edition. This way I can return the Cds when I'm in town tomorrow. Someone else might want to read. Just being considerate right? 🤓
#bookishconfessions

DGRachel I *might* have done something similar on one or two (hundred) occasions. 😂😂 7y
Zelma That is the height of consideration! Way to take one for the team. 👏😆 7y

I know this is unusual, but I fell in love with books before I fell in love with reading. I am dyslexic and it was very difficult for me to learn how to read but I would carry a book around before I could really read it. My love of reading came through the magic of books, there was something so fantastical about holding something that contained an entire world in my hand. I am still a sucker for a beautiful book! #bookishconfessions #fallintobooks
