Welcome to Litsy!

This month marks my ten year anniversary of reading The Twilight Saga. The phenomenon of these books and movies gave me a way to interact with other readers in a way I never expect to again. I had an extraordinarily superb time discussing the characters and themes. I was sad when it was over, but more so, I was grateful it happened at all. #BookNerdBliss #BookishEncouragement

Picked up a library hold today. Super fun to find this inside. #BookNerdBliss

This is my second Moriarity and I‘ve enjoyed them both. This is written first person, and I appreciated being in these particular characters‘ heads. I enjoy staging simple photos with a book and I realize it makes me consider the story in another way, by determining what I should use. Today, the exercise had a superb payoff as I had overlooked a joke the author made and I laughed out loud as I was setting up this shot. #BookNerdBliss

Reading books in season makes me happy. I had made a note to myself months ago to read “The ABC Murders” by Agatha Christie this summer. I got it from the library this week. It begins: It was in June...

I read this about seven years ago. Out of all the Austen novels, I remembered the least about this one. Though I cannot easily relate to this heroine, I was invested and rooting for her from the start. Austen again weaves human nature so well into the tale I‘m glad for the reread. #ArdentlyAustenBookClub

As I was thinking about staging a photo, I determined the photo on the cover was simply perfect.

Three years ago I heard about Litsy and immediately joined. Times flies when you‘re reading.

I‘m starting Northanger Abbey tonight. It is the April read for the #ArdentlyAustenBookClub on Insta. In my facebook memories I see that I began this same title on the same day in 2012. That is quite a fun coincidence. I‘m looking forward to rereading this. #BookNerdBliss

HAPPINESS IS...
My daughter had a class cancelled this morning so we went to the library to find books for her and her brother.

Series Love

I read The Secret Adversary several months ago and really like the Tommy and Tuppence characters. I plan to read the rest of their mysteries over the next year or so.

#BoutOfBooks 5 Star Read

I keep reading, even other books by CS Lewis, but this is still my favorite by far.
