Once again this Author brings me all the feels. I highly enjoyed this sequel! So much was relevant to today‘s global issues about hate and non- acceptance (which yes, was their point). However , there were some moments that I had to go back and listen to again , just to sit in the phrasing. Klune makes people think, speaks out and brings issues of hate in this world center stage while still bringing joy and beauty

I forgot to take a picture of the #staycationintime swap package . So here is a picture of the post office that I mailed it from instead.

@MittenGirlPeach 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 I hope this gets to you. When mailing it the zip code I had for you couldn‘t be found and they put a different one on it that matched the address 🤷🏻‍♀️in their system.

@Chrissyreadit

MittenGirlPeach Ye gods, I did have a zip code typo on the form! (I just checked). The package appeared in transit on my upcoming mail email from the postal service this morning, and i suspected it was the swap package! All appears to be well. Yours will be shipping very soon! 4mo

Well it‘s that time of year again! It‘s SNAP season. T -2 days until opening night. I set my book down tonight and was like see you on the other side. Most likely no reading for me until next week! Time to let my alter ego stage persona out and raise hopefully a shit ton of money for animal welfare. You can check out what we do at Snapburlesque.com.
SNAP weekend is my most favourite time of year!

Something about their books that just works so well in audio format! Moving on to “The lightning struck heart” now…. Let‘s see if this next one also makes me ugly cry in parking lots 😂

Still curled up sick in bed with tissue and hot water bottle but progress has been made. I can actually stay awake long enough to read. So starting this one which is one of the November roles for #roll100.

@PuddleJumper I can‘t believe it‘s November and the year is almost over. I thank you for hosting this event as it had helped me clear a bunch from my TBR list & prevented me from buying more books ( I did by some , but not nearly as much🤣)

Thank goodness for audio books. The plague has hit my house and I am so sick that even lifting a book is too much effort. Listening to the tagged book in-between times that I am not knocked out sleeping. Lol, I think I have started the same chapter over at least 3 times as I fell asleep 🤒🤧🤢 Audio book, Jello(the only thing I can swallow) and strong meds are getting me through.

I stopped to mail #athingaday packages for yesterday and today by a post office right by a Starbucks. So I am completely telling my husband that it is 100% Litsy‘s fault that I am bringing home yet another cup and I can not be blamed for it. Lol

@Bklover and @BookwormAHN your packages are in the mail

Bklover How fun! I will watch for it- will definitely pay it forward! By the way, you can‘t have to many mugs or basically anything to hold your drink! Love your new one! Thank you for your kindness and generosity. 1y
Yuki_Onna Dear, did you send the packages with tracking number? My #athingaday still hasn't arrived - I'm starting to worry it might be lost or exchanged by mistake by some extremely competent postperson again... 🙄You sent my 'thing package'😁on August 3rd. Even considering international postal delivery times, six weeks is quite some time. I'd hate if your letter was lost; if you had a tracking number I could start to investigate... 1y
