Starting these today. I‘ll read the first chapter of each and see which pulls me in first.
Guess who got her hot little hands on an #ARC of Elin‘s last book (sob)?! Soooooo excited. I‘ll be up all night reading.
“The Ordinary Man has managed something extraordinary.” 💛 This touched me.
pickWow. Fantasy is not my top genre, but I needed to know what all the fuss was about. And now I have drank the Kool-Aid. These are good. Just finished book 2 and I‘m starting book 3 immediately. My apologies to all of the books on my to be read pile. 😂
Merry Christmas and Happy #JolabokaflodSwap! Thank you @jdiehr for the awesome book and chocolate! And thanks to @MaleficentBookDragon for hosting this lovely Litsy tradition. 💛🎄🍾⭐️📚
I received my #JolabokaflodSwap package from @jdiehr ⭐️ So excited! 🎄⭐️📚 @MaleficentBookDragon
This #JolabokaflodSwap will be mailed tomorrow! So excited to see what everyone gets! @MaleficentBookDragon 🎄💛⭐️📚

*sigh of contentment*
pickThis was exactly what I needed today! Got it at the library at 3-ish this afternoon and just finished it at 11:15!
Sweet, simple, and satisfying. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
pickRecommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I never knew that I loved Nathaniel Hawthorne.

bailedI hate to not finish a book, but I am bailing on this one. I don‘t see why there‘s a buzz about it. Really boring and nothing compelling me to go on. 👎🏻
Don‘t miss the fantastic #JolabokaflodSwap, organized by @MaleficentBookDragon ⭐️🎅🏼🧑🏼🎄
Sign ups are open until Nov. 19!

I‘ve been devouring the books on my iPad that I have from the library but decided that it‘s time to switch to a paper book while on vacation. Easier reading on the beach. I‘ve had this on my shelf for a while but never realized it was set in Positano which is one of my favorite destinations.
pickI'm going to give this ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️, but not because I loved it. I admire the story this author crafted and it upset me SO MUCH.

pickI was SO excited when I discovered a new book was coming from Taylor Jenkins Reid. Then, when I saw the title, I couldn't place Carrie Soto in my recollection for previous novels. It turns out that she was only a mention and a side character in “Malibu.“ But she becomes a full and memorable character quickly.

pickI would like to live in a world imagined and written by Sarah Addison Allen. There's a little shimmer of the mystical and magical that offsets the ordinary and it is lovely.
In this new novel, we spent time with a cast of characters that are brought to the Dellawisp Condos by chance...or is it?

pickI just love her books! I was so happy there was a new one and I finished it way too quickly.
pickThis is one of those books that leaves you feeling like you've been somewhere. I have been in this town, driven these windy, washed-out roads along the cliffs, sloshed through creeks and looked upon a ridge filled with redwoods. I've mourned their losses and worried along with these people. #LMPBC Round 14, Group B
Having a hard time tagging people: @jamiearc (book on way to you), @megabooks, @thebluestocking, @suvata
Thanks to @penguinrandomhouse for these goodies in my mailbox today! #ARC
