I went to a friend‘s annual Halloween party last night, and I was a Hufflepuff! 🖤💛I made my wand out of a dowel, a ceiling fan pull knob, and hot glue (thank you Pintrest!🙌🏻) Does anyone else have a #bookishcostume?

Hello, Littens! 👋🏻 Life has been crazy and I haven‘t gotten to post as much as I would like. Today was a lazy Sunday, and Oliver kept me company while I lounged in bed and read. #catsoflitsy #gingercat #sleepysunday #littenkitten #kittenlitten

My husband and I started watching The Office (we are almost done with season 2) and I felt compelled to listen to this on audiobook. So far, I am LOVING it. So funny!!

I felt this installment dragged a bit. I wanted to smack Phury across the face and smarten him up a bit. There were some things that drove the series forward, and I really did like those parts...but Phury is my least favorite brother.

On to Rev‘s book now, and he is one of my favorites. 😍😍

I won this beauty on Goodreads, and I‘m soooooooo excited! 😍😍😍 I‘m hoping it delivers. #arc

1) Probably biography, but I‘ve been looking into self help books for my anxiety, which has been exceptionally high as of late.
2) Football
3) Capote
4) Burrito
5) I‘m very late, so whoever wants to play! 💜
#tuesdaytidbits @JenlovesJT47 And thank you @hermyknee for the tag! 😘❤️

Sunday evening snuggles with my favorite reading companion. ❤️🐶 #Twinkle #dogsoflitsy

Coming down with a cold 😷🤧 so I‘m crashing early tonight with my book. 📖Vishous was my favorite brother during my first read through of this series. We‘ll see if that holds true.

The first time I read the series, this book was my least favorite. It seems to be true this time around as well. I wasn‘t as invested in Marissa and Butch as I was the other couples in the series. I feel like Butch‘s story needed more, instead of just a few sentences at the end explaining his childhood. Worth the read, though.

Good, but sad. ⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2 out of 5.

@TCLinrow Here is a picture of my cat, Oliver, as he sleeps in his favorite position, which is super classy! 😂🤦🏻‍♀️

I‘m so sorry for the loss of your friend, and I hope Oliver is able to make you smile a bit. 💜💜

1) 45 - which is my highest number in a looooong time!
2) 52 was my initial goal, but I‘m pretty sure I‘ll end up passing it. 🎉
3) Favorite book I read this summer: Caraval - I read it twice.
4) I don‘t even know what the new releases are, my TBR is so big. 🙈Spinning Silver came out this summer, but I won‘t be reading it until this fall or winter.

I can‘t tell you the last time I finished a full length novel and started a second one in the same day! Flying through this series...I love me some BDB. 🧛🏻‍♀️

I‘ve read this book many times, but this was my time listening to it on audiobook. The narrator was fantastic, and I had forgotten how funny this series was. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

Rhage is one of my favorites. I devoured this book (all 464 pages of it) in one sitting while my husband watched football today. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

I forgot how much I loved this series. 😍😍 I read this in two days. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

My husband is over the moon for the Giants first game of the season. I‘m reading and occasionally looking up...which is how I watch most sporting events. 😂

Re-reading this JR Ward series, because I realized there are a few new ones out I haven‘t read. I haven‘t read them since 2011ish. I don‘t read romance often, but every once in a while I binge on what my husband calls my “smut books”. 😜

I feel so spoiled! Here are my bookmarks from @Clwojick !! 😍🤗❤️(Also Twinkle, who walked across the nice setup I had and flopped down at the end of the bed. 😂🤷🏻‍♀️🐶) #summerbookmarkswap

@Clwojick My #summerbookmarkswap came!! 😍 The envelope was completely destroyed - it showed up in a bag with an apology note - 🤦🏻‍♀️ but the contents were unharmed. I love them ALLL!! 🤗🤗❤️

I will post pics later tonight or tomorrow...they are so perfect. Pickle Rick made me laugh right out loud. 😂🥒

@Clwojick your #summerbookmarkswap package was mailed out yesterday during my lunch break. I had plans to take a picture of it, but when I got to the post office, I had to switch from a large envelope to a padded envelope because a bead made the package have a lump in it. The original package had stickers on it, LOL. 🤦🏻‍♀️ It was more important it got to you safe and sound, though! 💜💜

I forgot how funny this series is, especially on audio. I laughed so hard I cried while I was cleaning my house today. 😂

Yessssssssss! 🙌🏻🙌🏻 This came in the mail today, and I‘m SO EXCITED. Let the book borrowing frenzy begin! 🎉🎉#litsyloveslibraries #i❤️ny

Let‘s see how this goes! I literally know nothing about Captain Marvel, but I know she‘s coming to the movies soon and want to learn some backstory. 🌟

This was cute and super fun. I loved the Lumberjanes, and I look forward to reading more issues. 🌟🌟🌟/5.

I thought the first 5 were available on Prime reading, but just the first one, and the rest are on Kindle Unlimited (which I don‘t have because I haven‘t found much that interests me other than these, LOL. I may get my 30 day free trial to read them!)

In a bit of a reading slump, and I saw that some of the Lumberjanes volumes were on Amazon‘s Prime reading. Usually a graphic novel helps me out of my slump, and I‘ve heard good things about these from fellow Littens! ❤️#blameitonLitsy

I learned today that resident of New York State can get a NY Public library card and get access to their online materials! I thought you had to live in the city. I applied for mine today, and it takes about a month to get in the mail. I‘m so excited! 🤗🎉This will add a TON of titles that I am able to access on Libby and Overdrive, as I am in a fairly rural area in upstate NY. #litsyloveslibraries #i❤️NY

This must be my lucky week! 🍀My best friend and I (you had to tag someone) won this from @DoubledayBooks on Instagram! I‘M SO FREAKING EXCITED. 😍🤗❤️ (I actually won it July 19th, but didn‘t see my instagram message. 🤦🏻‍♀️) All three books are at the top of my TBR. 💫

Thanks to @Ashley_Nicoletto ‘s tip on putting my Kindle on airplane mode, I‘m able to start this tonight. I really loved Uprooted, so I‘m hoping I enjoy this as well! 🤗❤️#libby #bedtimereading #ishouldbesleeping 🤷🏻‍♀️😂

I‘m going to cry. I was 80% finished with this book, and it had to be returned to Libby. 15 WEEKS to borrow it again. 😭😭😭 This whole adulting thing is really cutting into my reading time. 😑 #lessonlearned

Yay! I‘m pretty excited to read this one. I usually enjoy Karin Slaughter‘s books. ☺️ I used to win GR giveaways all the time, then I went almost a year without winning one. This is the second time I‘ve won in the last month, so maybe my luck is changing, LOL. 🎉

My reading buddy, #Oliver. 😻 We both had a case of the Mondays, so it‘s time to relax and read before we go to sleep.

ALL of my library holds came in today. 😫Tagged book, Strange the Dreamer by Laini Taylor, and Spinning Silver by Naomi Novick. *sigh* While I am excited to read them, I‘m note sure I can read three books of that length in the time allotted, now that I‘m back to work. #thestruggleisreal #booknerdproblems

The last two books I‘ve read have left a lot to be desired...here‘s hoping this is a good pick. 🤞🏻🖤👑

To look at, this book is beautiful! The cover, the cool clockwork illustrations on the pages, even the title was intriguing. It was boring, honestly, and it featured a trope that I hate, one of my friends gave it a name: the bejeweled vagina. It describes a girl who always has the attention of everyone, even though the author maintains repeatedly that there is “nothing special” about this character. I normally don‘t bail on books. Like ever. 😕

I loved Caraval. I actually read it twice. Legendary was a letdown. I really wanted to love it, but I felt like 3/4 of the book was “he IS Legend!/ oh wait, he can‘t be/ oh but he is/ wait, no” 😫😫😫 I‘ll read book 3, but I won‘t have the high hopes that I did for this.

I absolutely LOVED this Beauty and the Beast retelling...it was full of magick and romance and roses, with a unique twist on the story. 4/5⭐️

Nailed it! 🤓https://www.buzzfeed.com/hannahagbeni/answer-questions-and-well-tell-you-which-fictional?utm_term=.tn9zWB80zr#.cfMDpOAlDg

Absolutely loving this Beauty and the Beast retelling. 😍🌹I wanted to stay in the pool reading all day, but my fair skin disagreed with that plan...so I have retreated to the living room for now. (Note sleeping #Twinkle in upper right corner 😂)

I checked my email before bed and realized I won a book from Goodreads. 🤗 Considering my day began with a trip to urgent care because when I woke up I couldn‘t hear out of my left ear (raging ear infection and a partially ruptured ear drum -UGH), I‘m glad to end the day on a positive note. ☺️ 🎉

This series has been on my TBR for quite some time! Congrats, @Literary_Siren on your milestone! 💜🎉🎉🎉 #5001Giveaway

Doing a quick review of Caraval before I read Legendary...now that I know some of the twists, I wonder if it will read differently. 🧐

I thought this was a solid second installment of the series. It seems that all the momentum for both books is saved for a cliffhanger ending, but I did enjoy them. I liked that there was a little more insight to Katherine, and I hope the last installment has some serious answers for all the questions that I have! 3.5/5 ⭐️

I found this on Pintrest this evening...SO TRUE! The last few days have been hectic (in a good way - it‘s been nice spending time with family) but I haven‘t had much time to read. Trying to finish the tagged book tonight so I can start Legendary...and probably end up reading until the wee hours of the morning. 🤷🏻‍♀️😂

YAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSS! 🎉🎉🎉 I just need to finish one of the three books I‘m reading first. 🙄🤷🏻‍♀️

Thank you, Littens! I am overwhelmed and so incredibly grateful for all the birthday love today! 🤗❤️ 34 was not very kind to me - I was battling with complications from PCOS which made me very ill and made my anxiety go into overdrive. I finally had a full hysterectomy at the end of May, and after a few setbacks, I‘m finally healing up and feeling better - both mentally and physically- than I have in a long time. Litsy has always been my “safe”

@britt_brooke I absolutely LOVE everything! Thank you so much! ❤️❤️The books all sound amazing. I can‘t wait to use my new sticker flags, bookmark, bracelet, and notepad. (The notepad made me laugh right out loud, because that is totally how my brain works. 😂)

And can we just take a minute to appreciate how FREAKING CUTE the little penguin she drew is?! 😍🐧 #250kGiveaway

@britt_brooke my package came! We were leaving for a cookout at my in-law‘s and the mailman was coming up the drive with it. It‘s also my birthday, so it felt extra special. ☺️☺️

I can‘t wait to open it when I get home!! Thank you!! ❤️❤️❤️

This was a cute story, with a lot more depth than I anticipated. The alternating Him/Her chapters were done really well, and I also liked the Tweets sprinkled throughout the book. Perfect summer beach read if you‘re in the mood for something flirty, fluffy, and fun. 3.5/5🌟

Floating in my tube and reading. I can‘t swim yet, but floating has been approved by my doctor. I‘m reading a book I won from GR and need to review...best to take my own books in the pool and not a library book or Kindle. (I‘m clumsy. 😣)

Where is your favorite summer reading spot? 😎☀️

10 books ahead of schedule?! Hot damn! 🤗 When I finish tagged book (probably tomorrow) I‘ll be 11 ahead. I haven‘t been able to read this many books in several years, and it really makes me happy. ☺️I‘m sad I‘ll have to go back to work soon and lose most of my reading time...but I have to be able to fund my book habit! 😂
