From the acknowledments:
"I'm not much of a joiner bit im delighted to say I'm a #TallPoppyWriter this group celebrates and supports the talent, passion, determination and general badassery of women writers and Im lucky to be counted among them"
I wonder if there are any #TallPoppyWriter here on #Litst? Anyone familiar with this group of writer's?
#SSS @Avanders @ferskner
A few weeks ago my daughter and I watched that film #TheThining and it prompted a discussion of #The lottery. This will undoubtedly be a thought provoking read ☺
#SSS @Avanders @ferskner #StockingStufferSwap
My dad's favourite author next to #JackLondon is #AgathaChristie especially Poirot so he will be very pleased to see me reading some Miss Marple over the holidays.
Btw, little know fact about yours truly: im about 60% through a course in certification as a private investigator so I always enjoy a good murder mystery❓👍
This #synchronicity connects the #StockingStufferSwap & #Thankful ForBooksSwap from #Thanksgiving. I love deep blues and evocative imagery on the covers which also synchronize quitell well 👍👊✋🙏 @Avanders @Elma @JamieLou @ferskner
As a Mystic I experience #synchronicity & #serendipity quite often so it's no surprise to find that different 📦 from different swap partners here on #Litsty would synchronize beautifully. As you can see #DeborahHarkness author of #BookOfLife also dies the #introduction on the manuscript as she is a historian of science and professor at #USC
As you can see the manuscript has awesome #fold-out pages for the larger and more complex images

Taking a break from chores so here is a pic of my lunch. I'm so proud of my daughter who ingeniously surprised me with apple-cider, cranberry granola clusters by mixing the Granola in my #SSS package from @ferskner they are delicious and are going well with book and #SwissMiss from my #SSS package from @Wonderwoman89 Shout out for @Avanders for "playing ?" this year ?
I want to build that snowman ?but gotta wait for my daughter after school
Another incredible #SSS package from fellow #Litten @ferskner ! 👍😀 super excited about these goodies and some excellent book choices that I will post separately, but perhaps you can see that this included legendary and egnimatic #VoniychManusript !!! Oh boy this is indeed a wonder Litst Christmas 🎄👍🎆🙏 kudos @ferskner

Another beautifully embossed cover 😁 from my #SSS package from @Wonderwoman89 who did an excellent job selecting books that I'm going to really enjoy. Im glad that @Avanders started up this very merry swap!
I've seen posts about #Time'sConvert here on Litsy lately so I'd love to hear from those that have read this particular volume.
Another intriguing book that was part of my #SSS swap hosted deftly by @Avanders and sent by the one and only @Wonderwoman89 😁👍
Another new author for me to discover! The actual book itself is beautifully printed with an embossed cover. The story sounds fascinating: four life long friends, one goes missing and the discovery of an enigmatic Book
So much work to get done and now I just want to sit here and pore over these thoughtful gifts.
#SSS #StockingStufferSwap @Avanders @Wonderwoman89
One of the intriguing selections I received in my swap. I have yet to read anything by this particular author but the jacket description and reviews have me eager to start this with so much I can personally relate with...there is even a character that uses #Tarot and #Omens in nature!! 😁👍 Oh and there is a reader's guide included which is a nice bonus.

I've read 100 pages so far, but I may hold off until next month because this would be perfect for the very first prompt of the #Booked2019 challenge. Features an interesting female private detective trying to solve a crime that seems paranormal. She is sharp, sly and sarcastic and as a divorce has sworn off men and sex for that matter and focuses solely on her job.

Three possible candidate for prompt#5 of the #Booked2019 challenge
#RoddyDoyle is an accomplished, award-winning Irish author. His fiction is historical and rooted in the troubling aspects of life in Modern Ireland.
#WomanWhoWalkedIntoDoors and it's sequel #PaulaSpencer tackle domestic violence in a Catholic society opposed to Divorce.

However, I am seeking someone who has experience organizing swaps and would like to partner(s) with me🤝 and bring these ideas to fruition. I'm ever grateful 🙏

Both the #TimeMagazine blurb and the rest included quote of #MauriceSendak are evocative and intriguing to say the least and seem to touch upon the same themes. I know this is gonna be a good read!
Also, a nice #synchronicity as well: the #MauriceSendak quote is on #September #27th which happens to be my daughter's birthday. 😁🙏
This edition has some beautiful illustrations by #TheBrothersHildebrandt #Thankfulforbooksswap @JamieLou @Elma
As a former #DungeonsAndDragons nerd I love the #fantasy genre and haven't delved into a good fantasy universe in a long while.

Had a power outage for a few hours today. Couldn't get online so I'm behind on my posts.
Here is the pic of my package for #BlindDateBookSwap @TheReadingMermaid
I had a lot of fun with this swap. In the mail and on the way to my secret swap 😁
#Thankfulforbooksswap @JamieLou @Elma
I'm so grateful for the absolutely wonderful package I received!! Beautifully wrapped in autumnl colors with a lovely card. We are eager for our morning coffee which should be a delicious rum and cinnamon ☕ the candle smells heavenly
The books are equally excellent. My friends all enjoyed the Shannara series so I've always wanted to read and the Gaiman looks fascinating. Thank you both for a great swap!

@MaleficentBookDragon
This was from my trip. I will send you this in mail if you need a travel guide. It is from early 2000 so I don't know if it will be too out of date. As you can see it had a fold out map
I purchased these back in 2001 when I was diagnosed. There may be better texts available that are more timely, but these two were ahead of their time and still hold up well. Do any of you Littens suffer from a chronic condition that makes life challenging? Do your books serve as an anodyne?

@SquidgetsRoom Published before #DaVinciCode back in #2001so this is nearly 18 years old now! This book is somewhat prophetic as the last two years #NASA has reported some similarities and anomalous activity in #Antartica

Found my receipt! FedEx guarantees delivery before the end of the day tomorrow so well in time for the open date
Im excited about the books I selected for my swap. Thanks @JamieLou for holding this all together.
#BlindDateBookSwap @TheReadingMermaid
This is the other swap I'm excited about. I've chosen some interesting texts that I'm curious to see if my secret swap will enjoy or not? This package is going out tomorrow as well. Busy post day 🏷️📚📕🎁😁
@TheReadingMermaid Thanks 😀

The above image is symbolic. The snowstorm delayed my order from Amazon and a few items in that order are essential to the two stockings I'm sending out. Everything is ready to go (foot half way out the door) but I'm just awaiting the order which is supposed to arrive by 8PM tonight. After some wrapping they will be sent out immediately and I will do everything possible to ensure delivery by the open date
I'm excited and thankful for the package I received for the #thankfulforbooksswap this afternoon @JamieLou I eagerly await the opening date. Special thanks to @JamieLou for running these swaps like a well inked printing press 👏🎁📕📚🏷️🔖
I forgot my picture of the package sent to my swap, but it has been sent and should arrive by the 21st open date 😁
