@SpiderGoddess thanks so much for everything!! My dog was convinced it was her bark box so she helped me open. I‘m excited to read these especially zombie birds. I hadn‘t heard of it before but it sounds fascinating. Thanks again! 🤗. And thanks Heiki for organizing.

No work today!! Happy wind day to DC. 😊

1. Girls night tonight then working and reading
2. 5‘5”
3. My husband and I moved to this apartment in August.
4. The Secret Lives of Colors and Carnegie‘s Maid
5. Not sure how awesome it is. But here‘s my face @jesshowbooks 😊

Haven‘t posted in a while. I have been sick for days and days now. I‘ve lost count. Haven‘t really been able to read either. Trying something light. I‘m ready to feel myself again...

@annahenke thank you so much for everything!! I love Julie Klassen! Well I love all three of the authors, actually! The bookmarks are great! That‘s so cool that you helped design them. And my husband will be happy about the booklight! He hates when he is trying to sleep and I‘m reading. I have been so sick for almost a week now so this was so nice to open. Thank you again 😊🙏

This went out today! #scgp @MrBook @Avanders @BookBabe

Was hoping for 10 books in January but 8 and a half (the half is “The Cooking Gene”) isn‘t too bad. The two non-fiction were definitely the favorites. #januaryreads

My handsome husband. #whodoyoulove #heartsandhardcovers @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

Home from work early. She is not supposed to be on the bed....but how do you say no to that face???

Some good deals on amazon for kindle today😊. Just thought I would share with you all in case it is something you‘re interested in. Happy Sunday reading!

Husband is out with his friends tonight. Just me, my dog, and this book 😊

This tagged book has been my favorite so far. It was published last April but I waited for my library to order it...it was so good. Fascinating facts and the author was so likable. #thewallsareclosingin

Next up ☠️💀

Littens are the best 😊 @Tamra

1. Coffee. I looove coffee. I use a Keurig and I like dark roast
2. Candy and the colors and flowers.
3. Bookmarks and notebooks
4. Lilacs and clean scents. I don‘t like patchouli

I don‘t reread books so unless it‘s a special gift I donate them when I‘m done. So yes, all of these are TBR. I just ordered some books for my. #cupidgoespostal match and 2 for me. I am all out of space. I MUST be put on a book buying ban. And yes, these are in alphabetical order by author. I‘m one of those people.

Looking forward to a day off today filled with reading...and probably some sleep. Also, isn‘t the notebook my aunt got me for Christmas beauty!? I‘m using as my book journal this year 😊

Current read. OMG soooo good so far. And a bookmark from the bookmark swap. Then i just had to throw in my 🦊 for the fun of it. My college mascot was the red fox so I have quite the collection of fox things.

❤️this is a sensitive subject right now...but I‘m a 5th year PhD student in infectious disease. And it‘s rough. I want to be anything but a professional student at this point.

Leave a comment here if you would like to receive these two books in the mail. (US Only). Do this by 9 am EST 1/8 and reese and I will pick someone randomly to send them to!

Looong day in the lab🔬 on a Saturday 😞. Now I‘m happy in bed with a book and Reese just wants whatever I‘m eating. Don‘t worry she got some as payment for staying still for the pic.

To those of you who requested bookmarks-Don‘t worry. You‘re not forgotten. They are time consuming but I promise I‘ll get to you all!

Typical Friday night:
Husband watching movie on his laptop
Me reading a book
(He is very unaware he is in this photo) 🤫

January goals!

My top 10 for the year! All were published in 2017 unless otherwise noted. My final books read =79. That was a tie with my all time high. Next year I‘ll beat it!!! Happy new year littens! 😘

Last of the bookmarks from my bookmark swap. I love love them. Thank you @TheDaysGoBy

$12 😊🤓 Xmas gift to myself.

“What‘s this book about anyway Mom?”

Are those sad puppy dog eyes or what? I don‘t want to go to work either, Reese. I‘d much rather cuddle in bed all day with you and this book.

I truly adore this community. Thanks everyone for putting a smile on my face everyday! 😊

Starting this one and using one of my new bookmarks 😊. If i can get 4 more books in this year i will beat my record of 79 🤞🏼

@Ke633 I adore all of these. Thank you so much for your kindness ❤️❤️

@KimSG ❤️ 😊these are great. Thank you so much!!

@Emiller I love it! Thank you so much! I need the think positive message right now!! #bookmarkswap

This cover though 😍.
I had a much needed relaxing four days off. Ending it in bed snuggled up with this story.

So excited for the first four people I made bookmarks for to receive them. I love them but don‘t want to post any more pics and ruin the surprise. Don‘t forget you can drop an email to get a homemade bookmark too! Look to my past posts! For now reading and enjoying having the apartment to myself(ish) (Reese doesn‘t disrupt my peace too much) tonight 😊

Reading and making bookmarks then putting up my tree later. Here‘s to a great mental health day!

Here is the first of the bookmarks requested. I had so much fun making it! If you want me to make you one (they will all be different) email me at chelsiryanbeau@gmail.com with your address. I‘m just making them in order of the emails I receive. Who doesn‘t love free bookmarks?

Hey all! I have really been enjoying making bookmarks for the bookmark swap but don‘t want to inundate my matches with too many. It‘s really helping soothe my anxiety. If you‘d like one sent your way just for fun email me at chelsiryanbeau@gmail.com with your address and I‘ll make something up for you 😊

❄️a handmade surprise for a sweet litten ❄️

Only 6 books this month. One of my worst. Been suffering from a lot of anxiety and it makes it really hard to enjoy things. Hopefully this month I‘ll get more reading in!
My favorite: All Over the Place
Least favorite: Living the Dream

Cuddled in my new throw blanket with this one. 🛋❤️

Got this one for my cousin who is turning 16 two days after Xmas #bookfriday2017

Thanks so much for the books @everlocalwest and the candle @Sharpeipup . With being so sick these have been just the pick me ups I️ need. I️ am truly grateful.❤️❤️

#bookmarkswap Sometimes crafting helps me unwind.... even if it isn‘t my strong suit.

Laying down and trying to recover. Reading something light.

I‘ve been sick in the hospital so just getting around to this.
1. Alexandra Robbins 2. Books that my library doesn‘t have that I️ want to read are Night class by Victor a corona and the Stars in Our Eyes by Julie Klam 3. Chips! 4. Bookmarks and notebooks. 5. Happy hour with friends & walks with my dog 6. Mac and cheese and mashed potatoes 7 Nigeria 8 Bull 9. I️ like James Franco but don‘t collect anything @Sharpeipup @jennyjenjenjenjenni

Birthday reading plus bubbly! My husband and I have the same birthday so he watches his shows and I snuggle with a good book!

Anyone interested in reading one or both of these? They are way backlist but I‘m getting rid of them and would be happy to mail to a Litten that would want them! If more than one person is interested I‘ll pick at random. Just leave a message. I‘ll say it‘s in honor of my bday but really it‘s OMG my bookshelf is full 😳. Will have a couple more sets of books through the week.

Thanks for the card @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks it means so so much to be a part of this community. It‘s nice to be remembered on my birthday so thanks to @Cinfhen and @Robothugs for making each of our days special here on Litsy
