#LitSolaceFallCardSwap

I am bereft. As you can see from the pic, I sent my cards out TWO WEEKS AGO! So far, no one has received one. I don't have tracking #s, so I can't call the USPS. I even paid extra postage! 😭

@DebinHawaii, @StolenBookmobile, @BarkingMadRead, @Cuilin, @kspenmoll, @Deblovestoread, @Bookwormjillk, @Princess-Kingofkings, @SaraRuthie, @Kar2b, @KadaGul, @JessieKB, @WildAlaskaBibliophile

KadaGul @dabbe I know the mail has been delayed due to thunderstorms in the south. Give it some extra time, and don't lose hope. For the longest time, my mail was delivered in bulk until I complained. I see the mailman come through our neighborhood, so why is my mail held hostage? (edited) 2mo

BarkingMadRead I got yours today!!!! 2mo

Kar2b Hi Denise! I just got a card from you, but it was ListyLove not Litsolace, unless they‘re one and the same, which is okay too! 🥰 2mo

Bookwormjillk I think for me it might be a my mail issue more than anything you did. Our regular carrier retired and since then we only get deliveries every few days. I‘m sure they‘ll arrive eventually. 2mo

Deblovestoread So frustrating but it will be a ray of sunshine when it arrives. 2mo

Librarybelle I just keep thinking of the regular mail that took me 2 years to receive—I think that speaks volumes of the USPS. Hope they arrive soon! 2mo

dabbe @BarkingMadRead YAY! 🤩😅🤗 2mo

dabbe @KadaGul Good to know! Thanks! 🤩😅🤗 2mo

slategreyskies Denise, I received mine from you! I know our opening date was the 22nd, but I plan on opening the entire stack after the mail comes tomorrow to allow for the most amount of chance that the few latecomers will arrive. The one from you arrived in good shape and has been exciting me due to its thickness. I‘ll tag you tomorrow once I‘ve opened the stack! 🍁 🎃 🌻✨ 2mo

dabbe @Bookwormjillk 🤩🤞🏻🤗 2mo

dabbe @Deblovestoread It is, especially when I mailed them two weeks ago to be sure they\'d arrive in time! 🤩😅🤗 2mo

dabbe @Librarybelle They definitely march to their own drummer, don\'t they? 🤩😅🤗 2mo

dabbe @Kar2b I did write you a #LitsyLove letter back on 9/9. The Litsolace should had a little journal in it. There should be two different ones. 🧡🍁🧡 2mo

dabbe @slategreyskies YAY! 🤩😅🤗 2mo

DebinHawaii Hi Denise, I got your #LitsyLove card on Tuesday last week. (Thank you!) I\'m sure the other one will arrive soon! 🍎🌻 2mo

dabbe @DebinHawaii 🧡🤞🏻🧡 2mo

JessieKB I got yours today!!!! There are still a couple I haven‘t received (mine were late too) so I was waiting to open. Thank you!!!!🧡🧡🧡 (edited) 2mo

dabbe @JessieKB YAY! 🤩🤗🤩 2mo

Bookwormjillk Got mine today! 2mo

StolenBookmobile I got yours!!! I just haven‘t posted. Lots of life events going on 2mo

dabbe @Bookwormjillk YAY! 🤩🤗🤩 2mo

dabbe @StolenBookmobile YAY! 🤩🤗🤩 2mo

Cuilin I got your card 🎉 2mo

dabbe YAY! I got yours yesterday, too! 🩶🧡🩶 2mo

I didn't know I could've gotten the #s for this yesterday. I haven't been paying attention, lately but I've been a little busy with the grandkids.

Here is how my board is shaping up to be. All my books for this month for Halloween Bingo (which I play with a group of former peeps from booklikes) and I've already finished the first square. We Used To Live Here and it has all the Halloween creepy vibes you could ever want.

@TheAromaofBooks

guinsgirlreads I‘m interested to hear about how the Rachel Koller Croft is!

Listverse. Com's Ultimate Book of Bizarre Lists: Fascinating Facts and Shocking Trivia on Movies, Music, Crime, Celebrities, History, and More | Jamie Frater

#top25of21st
I have feeling someone has already started a thread about this and I missed it, but with the NY Times recent list of 100 best books of this century, it seems like a good opportunity to try and figure out my own. So if anyone wants to join in, I'd love to see what your favorites are. I chose 25 instead of 100 and just novels since I have a hard time comparing nonfiction or story collections, but feel free to make your own rules!

Billypar Reddit thread with the NYT list (#s 3, 23, and 25 are on it): https://www.reddit.com/r/literature/comments/1e1h8cc/lets_talk_about_nyts_best_b... 4mo

LiteraryinPA Thanks for sharing your personal list! 4mo

Ruthiella I don‘t know if I could whittle it down? 😂 Ishiguro would be on it for sure, but I‘d pick “Never Let Me Go” and for Mitchell, “Cloud Atlas”. 4mo

See All 25 Comments

Suet624 There are so many that I like on this list but numbers 18 through 21 are my absolute favorites, especially Marra‘s book. I guess I would add Fresh Water for Flowers. 🙂 4mo

TheBookHippie Gah … okay I‘ll work on it!! I agree with your 14&25 4mo

TheBookHippie Oh 13 too! 4mo

BkClubCare Wow - I have 3 of these on my Aug bookspin bingo card 4mo

plemmdog I loved #10 and #19! 4mo

Billypar @Ruthiella Never Let Me Go is on my to be read shelf, so hopefully I'll get to that soon. I pulled about 35 initial candidates from my shelves, but whatever number you set, it always leads to tough choices. 4mo

Billypar @Suet624 I need to bump FWFF up on my TBR based on everything I've heard. And I'd like to read more from Marra based on how powerful Constellation was. 4mo

Billypar @TheBookHippie Chabon's Kavalier & Clay is on the NYT list and is also great, but I feel like Yiddish Policeman's Union gets overlooked among his novels. I still need to read the newest releases from Obreht and Ward. 4mo

Billypar @BkClubCare If it works out that you get Drive Your Plow... I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. One of the most unique murder mysteries I've read, and it's got some great dark humor. 4mo

Billypar @plemmdog The voices of the narrators in both of those novels are so distinctive, I can almost conjure them in my head now. I never wanted to put either one down while I was reading. 4mo

TheBookHippie @Billypar I agree!! 4mo

BkClubCare @Billypar - Looking forward to it; starting it next 🤩 4mo

BarbaraBB Great list. Did you choose them from The NY Times list? 4mo

Billypar @BarbaraBB No, I was just finding favorites from my shelf. There are three from NYT's - A Brief History 7 Killings, Bel Canto, and Sing, Unburied, Sing. It's got lots of good ones, but I've only read a little more than 1/3. 4mo

Reggie I love that you have Bunny and Fever Dream in there. 🖤🖤🖤 4mo

Billypar @Reggie If weirdness was like paint, I think my entire list has a thin coat, but those are two where it collected and pooled 😆🖤 4mo

vivastory Fantastic list! 👏 🤘 3mo

Christine This is a really great list!! 3mo

sarahbarnes So many great ones on here - and a few that are high up on my TBR. 3mo

Billypar @sarahbarnes I feel like nothing on my TBR gets read unless I see the book recommended multiple times, so I like how these lists help with prioritizing. 3mo

merelybookish Fabulous picks! I think Bunny would make mine as well. I think often my 'best' books become the ones I don't forgot. And I have not forgotten Bunny! 3mo

Billypar @merelybookish Yeah, that's a good standard to use. I'm pretty sure Bunny won't ever stop hopping around my brain! 3mo

CBee 80/100 😃 Faves: anything Motown, Johnny Cash, and two that make me dance no matter what: Groove is in the Heart and Dancing Queen 💃🏻 4mo

BkClubCare I got 50 but I only counted the ones that immediately sprang into my head with song and lyrics. I bet if I listened to them, I would have rated much higher. I am not very good at music knowledge 😕 (edited) 4mo

dabbe @wanderinglynn 🥰 4mo

dabbe @CBee “Groove“ is one of my faves. How can you not dance to that one? Thanks for sharing and playing. 🩶🎵🩶 4mo

dabbe @BkClubCare I'm not, either. That's why I created the Spotify playlist. Each time I've played there have been at least 5-10 songs that I knew--I just didn't know them by song name. Thanks for sharing and playing. 🩶🎵🩶 4mo

Whew! Today's survey is AFI's top 100 movie quotes. The list goes from 100-1 (even though the #s are opposite on the survey).Share your score and/or list your 3 favorite quotes from the survey or from movies that didn't make the list. You'll see every quote beneath the movie pic (that's what took so long!)
Here's the link: https://bit.ly/3XYONnR

dabbe @thebacklistbook It's a fabulous movie. 4mo

Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick Random thoughts: I've seen about 38 of the movies, but I know of most of the quotes. I laughed at "I'm king of the world!" being the Titanic quote on the list. I hear, "Draw me like one of your French girls" far more often. ? My most widely used from this list is "My precious." ? I'd use time travel to take a crack at young Warren Beatty. ? "You're killing me, Smalls" from Sandlot is missing. ⚾️ The list is sorely lacking Spaceballs quotes. 4mo

dabbe 💚 it! Thanks for sharing and playing. 🤩🤩🤩 4mo
