Bookwormjillk Fun! I‘m in! 5h

Lunakay Please add me too! 5h

ElizaMarie What are we reading? 4h

quietjenn Sure thing! 3h

AllDebooks @ElizaMarie I was thinking My family and other animals but waiting on any other suggestions 🙂 3h

Soscha My personal inclination is for scary to semi-scary summer camp/campire tales stuff. MrBallen has a graphic to that nature coming out. That one‘s not coming coming out until October. https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/742533/mrballen-presents-strange-dark-a... 3h

Soscha Not sure how popular the topic would be with all here but there are other books that would serve for summer. 2h

Soscha Has anyone considered starting a Litsy Bookclub on Fable? 2h

Soscha And I just put this is on TBR. It‘s YA & a fun, light scare. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/63249817 36m

#midsummersolace #naturalitsy
This afternoon I walked through the village and then by the river with my neighbor.we haven‘t walked it in weeks for various reasons. I so missed the river- we both did- in all its phases. Water is still high because of the floods earlier this week, and the rapids roar. It was pure joy.

Cosy Corners: A Comedy in Four Acts | Pauline Phelps, Marion Short

Reposting for @alldebooks
It's nearly that time of year again to huddlle together, batten down the hatches and cosy up ready for those long winter nights. 🕯🫖🔥
After #MidSummerSolace it was decided it would be better to run these events as a seasonal thing rather than 21 days in the run-up to the Solstice. So we now have a 2 month long event. 🍾
All are welcome to join us for some wintery, hygge-based, book-based fun.

#Naturalitsy #Midsummersolace

Hi all, thank you so much for joining me for our 1st midsummer event. I would really appreciate your thoughts/comments in order to plan our midwinter event. Please give honest feedback. Don't worry, I've got my Big Girl Pants on, I can take it! 🤪

I'm very disappointed personally, with the ending. Couldn't be helped due to my illness. Saying this, I wondered if anyone would be interested in co-hosting with me. ⬇️⬇️

AllDebooks Cont. Ideally, someone with wicca knowledge who could cover that angle. Cos I know very little tbh. 🤔 11mo

AllDebooks @sebrittainclark @Cazxxx @TheBookHippie @ElizaMarie @jenniferw88 @majkia @Cuilin @ozma.of.oz @TheAromaofBooks @Catsandbooks @julieclair @Chrissyreadit 11mo

AllDebooks I also really like Chrissy's idea of a season and would be happy to run a #solaceseason over 2 month periods. It would take pressure off to post every day over a 21-day period, that's for sure. 😅 Let me know your thoughts. 11mo

TheBookHippie @AllDebooks I definitely think season! If @Chrissyreadit joins she can do Wicca I can help you both of you if want to do three peeps. Keep Jennifer to help you with swaps. 🤷🏻‍♀️I got sick at the end as well! 😵‍💫😅I am attached to a coven here they help me with gardening in summer I can always ask them too. (edited) 11mo

AllDebooks @TheBookHippie that's great! Hope you're feeling better now x 11mo

TheBookHippie @AllDebooks just occasional cough left 😵‍💫 I cannot remember the last time I had a summer cold flu…do not recommend 😝 11mo

TheBookHippie I did love the challenge and the swap was fantastic! 11mo

AllDebooks @TheBookHippie defo not fun 😕 11mo

AllDebooks @TheBookHippie I'm so glad 😊 @jenniferw88 did a great job matching folks x 11mo

jenniferw88 I'm happy to help with /do the swaps! And the season idea sounds good 11mo

AllDebooks @jenniferw88 aww, excellent. I'm so glad. Thanks x 11mo

AllDebooks @TheBookHippie @JenniferWelch & @Chrissyreadit (if you agree to being volunteered 🤣) Thanks so much for the offer of help. I'll pick this convo up via email in a week or so. Just waiting on feedback for #Midsummersolace x 11mo

TheBookHippie @AllDebooks sounds good! 11mo

Chrissyreadit i can help- but it may not be “pure” wicca- that‘s a formal organized religion. I‘m more witchy with several traditions/approaches. 11mo

AllDebooks @Chrissyreadit that sounds perfect. Thank you x 11mo

bnp I liked the photography challenge, but 21 days straight was too much for me. I could probably handle one/week. :) I also like the idea of spreading it out over a couple of months.

I'm glad you're feeling better. 11mo

AllDebooks @bnp thank you for your feedback, all noted x 11mo

julieclair I love the idea of a season! And I wish I could have signed up for the swap, but the timing was just not workable for me this time around. Thank you for hosting. Posting every couple of days, or any other changes you need to make, are totally fine with me. I‘m just so appreciative that you are willing to step up and host an event that we can all enjoy. 💝 11mo

Cuilin I like the idea of focusing on a season. I try to incorporate the Celtic/Wiccan calendar into my life so like that idea too. I enjoyed the photo challenge and loved the swap. 11mo

AllDebooks @julieclair @Cuilin thank you so much for your feedback. It's so helpful. 😊 11mo
