pickI enjoyed this one! And reading up on all the art fakes :) Not enough romance though, but some hinting of a couple of budding ones coming up. I might continue this series. #ThematicCozies @JulieClair
julieclair Glad you enjoyed it! now

My #ThematicCozies pick for March. I used to love to paint (in a previous life), so I could say it used to be my hobby. When I googled “cozy mystery“ and “art,“ this one came up. I needed a new #AudioCommute #AudioChore book - so this is perfect. I am hoping this weekend I can listen to it at work (while documenting).
#JulieClair
Almost a Bingo - I needed one more “free“ space. Oh well.
I finished my #BookSpin and my #DoubleSpin - and of course - more importantly, read some great books!
#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaOfBooks
Doubt I would read anything else this month - so starting to post my re-caps already.

I like playing along but I very rarely rarely get a bingo :) Ha
pickI had to take breaks while reading this one. The subject matter was intense and just hit too close to home. We recent (or maybe its confirmation bias) patients coming into the ED with the need for rape kits, and I just hated the language among “professionals“ regarding these women.

pickThis one sat on my #TBR for years! I might even have more than one copy as it had been one I had been meaning to read for years! Thank you #HashtagBridgade for allowing me to join in on this journey! I had a great time reading this depressing book with yall. @BarkingMadResd

pickSo, I enjoyed this one for what it was. A bit far-fetched, but -- what dark smutty romance/murder academia isn't? Overall kept me entertained 🌶️🌶️

Border Patrol makes me so nervous. I have always been so scared whenever we came to a checkpoint. Now with the word -- I am terrified of ICE. - Well more than I used to be.
This chapter hit too close to home for me
I am nowhere near caught up, but I spent some time writing some #LitsyLove letters today (slowly but surely, I will catch up—maybe—probably not). ❤️❤️❤️
Hubby had to work today. My kitty isn‘t letting me read yesterday- so… I‘m gonna try out this #BookToScreen pick (I loved the book!)
He is instant that he should be cuddled instead of letting me read. ♥️🦞♥️
Lobster 🦞🐈⬛ would not let me read yesterday. When I tried to push him off of me so I can turn pages— he held on to the book for dear life!
pickI enjoyed this #Audio book. The “then” and “now” way of telling a story . Overall a soft pick. #OffTheShelf2025
@Librariana
I picked this from a #Smut recommendation list. I‘m “enjoying it” (somewhat) but.. super annoyed when they keep referencing names of songs 🎶
Type: “Literally my character” into your Pinterest search bar & the first 6 images are who you are…
(Had to do some cropping so yall can see it all).
Thanks (I think) @TheBookHippie for this trend!

First day off after some a really rough week of work (and training a new employee). I have a ton of laundry to catch up! Good thing I am pretty engrossed in this #Audio.
pickI listened to this one. (I preordered it a while back.) I am obsessed with the male voices! Oooo! 🌶️🌶️🌶️

I have been reading/checking in with my buddy Frankie every Friday with this book. I am enjoying it so far - lots of “to-do“ and “to think-about“ items for me to focus on. Today, I reread a couple of weeks' worth and took some notes :) 📑📊🗓️
I finished 2 more courses in my degree towards a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. This semester was intense. I felt sick some days (physically) and couldn't take care of myself because school NEVER stops! I am taking a semester off before I start my preceptorship (I can't emotionally- self-care - physically - think about working for free right now).
I am excited to use this time to read, regroup, and organize my home/life.

pickThis was super cute. Again, too young for me, but.. I enjoyed how sweet it is. I might be into romance more than I initially thought :) - Tulips from the hubby (My fav flower)

so-soFinished this month's #ThematicCozies @JulieClair Most cozies have some romantic element, and when I googled this (romance + cozy mystery) it came up, but ... it wasn't super romantic-y. Compared to others I have loved! Oh well. The book itself was a bit obnoxious, but it might have been geared to a younger audience into influencers - a #NotForMe pick.

so-soI like this book's idea way more than its execution. It didn't grasp me as much as I had hoped, but it did provide a distraction during my #AudioCrochet and #AudioChores, which is always helpful.
Zoey looking especially chubby! #PugLife

@CatieWithaC I don't know if you gave me this book (fi you did and I never properly thanked you - I am sorry), or if you suggested it, but ... I am being sucked in! I can't read all day - even though I want to! It's so captivating!
#AudioCrochet —- but this book is so slow moving!!!!!
pickCute #NextInSeries and already downloaded the third book❤️🖤❤️ was able to listen while documenting yesterday.

pickI took a break from cleaning to finish this one (I was almost done anyway). Anyway, this is a re-read for me. It was interesting to see the poems I flagged back then vs how they don't affect me in the same way today. Some of me wish I had annotated a little or journaled why they were significant then.

Got a lot of housework to do today. Struggled with finishing homework this weekend and just let “everything” go. Listening to this one while I conquer the pile of clothes to fold and our away. #AudioChores
Starting my #DoubleSpin Poetry book while soaking in the tub. My lovely hubby is dying my hair, got me a nice mixed drink and some chocolates and told me to relax in rhe tub :)
pickIt was a cute quick read :) I enjoyed it :) Initially, I was curious about the kitty's role, but it all tied in! I enjoyed it :)
