- I received the 4th book (sorry I don't have the name in front of me.
- Are we still sending things on, or holding for a later date?
Wishes for all Littens to have a happy, joyous 2020, with plenty of books and laughter!!
#LMPBC has not gone out! With all the holiday stuff, my reading got stalled. Hopefully I'll be able to pick it up again today (and hide from cleanup lol) 😖
@Riveted_Reader_Melissa @jessinikkip @whippoorwill815
Just started this, and I'm really enjoying it. I wasn't sure if I would, since Sci-Fi is a new genre for me. Yay for expanding horizons! 👏
#LMPBC @Riveted_Reader_Melissa @whippoorwill815 @jessinikkip
Happy birthday!!!!!! 🥳👏🥳🥳 What do you mean we're supposed to have ONE favorite Litten?!? 😱 I chose someone who helped me, even though she probably doesn't know it, @UwannaPublishme . I had to drop from #litsylove because I've been overwhelmed with life, & I still got a letter from her, even when she couldn't find my address on the lists (for now!) And told me it was ok if I needed a break & to write when I can. I will! Thank you my friend.
I have no idea what happened to my #LMPBC email!! Can one of you lovely ladies send it to me? 🤦♀️
@jessinikkip @Riveted_Reader_Melissa @whippoorwill815
Having fun marking it up!

@Avanders this is amazing!! 🧡 I laughed so hard when I opened the magnets, great minds 👻 & I LOVE Clue!! I can't wait to dig into my books & I'm dying to see the reaction I get with the hand sanitizer 😆😆 The earrings are sooo cute! I've got the perfect tee for them. 🦇 I've got a great spot for the skull, next to a Nightmare Before Christmas fairy. I hid the candy, hot cocoa, & coffee. Thank you so much!! 🎃👻🧙♀️
@MeganAnn Thank you so much!!!!!!!! I LOVE it all!! I was blown away by your thoughtfulness in your choices. I can't wait to snuggle down with a new cozy, & a warm cup of coffee, wrapped in my blanket scarf and my new candle dancing happily next to me. 💗💜👏👏💗💕 (I need a jumping up and down emoji!) 🎉🎃💯💯💯🍁🍂🍁🤩🥰😍🤸♀️🤸♀️🤸♀️

I had a real hard time with this book. couldn't stand the female MC and was iffy on the male MC. I found Katie to be obnoxious, vicious, disrespectful, & just downright unlikable. While some of her response could be passed as her PTSD, it was over the top. I also felt that not recognizing the other also had PTSD when each had such visible & strong episodes in front of the other was implausible. 2 stars because it was a great & original concept.⬇️
For any in the path of Dorian, please stay safe!! Thoughts and prayers for you all. 💖💗
Congratulations @GrilledCheeseSamurai ! This is an awesome contest! Thank you so much! #SixDigitSamurai
Favorite read for 2019 is between the tagged book & "Any Witch Way You Can (Wicked Witches of the Midwest Book 1)" by Amanda M. Lee.
Litsy has made my move into my parents' house so much easier. It's eliminated the negativity of other social media sites from my life & I can't even explain how much #litsylove & #jb & the welcoming people mean.
I'm reading a book that was given to me by Story Origin for an honest review. I need some suggestions. I hate the main character and find that the 2 main characters missed such an obvious detail about each other implausible. The book has a 4.5 rating on Amazon from I think 65 reviewers. So, either I'm missing something or this just isn't the book for me. I'm about 50% in. How do I write a review that doesn't trash the book but shows how I feel?
🐈 Favorite library tagged (I have 2 to choose from, each 1/2 hour away).
🐈 At least once a week.
🐈 I've borrowed ebooks (their selection leaves much to be desired) and 2 audio books.
#getlibrarycarded @nitalibrarian
comic books heavily influenced the type of books he would write. "Welcome to the Jungle" is the first graphic novel set in the world of the Dresden Files, and takes place directly before "Storm Front". We are introduced to Harry Dresden, Chicago's first, and only, wizard PI, as well as Lt. Murphy, Sgt. Carmichael & Bob. The sarcasm & wit is hilarious. This was my 1st graphic novel and the illustrations were stunning. Definitely a pick.
This...this scares me! 😳 September TBR. Most of these are ARCs and free copies, but I tried to put personal picks in, too. (Though those will be dropped first if necessary)
This is what I got through in August...sad compared to July! BUT it's a new month 🤩📚📖
Thank you @Erofan for the blessings! 💗
🐈 Getting more comfortable in a new place, it's hard to move after 35 years, even in with family.
🐈 Being able to care for my mom when her lung cancer comes back (sadly it will)

🐈 Tagged. I wanted to read this as soon as I saw it and I finally got it from the library. I even kept it for as many renews as I could. But I never got to it. 😖
🐈 Outlander series
🐈 🤭 1000 at minimum and growing. I spend way too much time looking at books
🐈 The Book of Help: A Memoir of Remedies, Megan Griswold. I really enjoyed it, 4.5⭐
I totally missed this on Wednesday!!!!! Sorry!! @Eggs
I stopped reading romance novels a long time ago. Somehow, as I got older, the sex scenes became superfluous, something that simply took away from the story & my enjoyment. To Each His Own is my first clean romance to see if I still enjoy the genre, & if I might like sweet, clean reads. I have to say, I'm glad I chose it. River Ames knocked it out of the park, convincing me that a clean read can be just as steamy & fulfilling as any other romance
Rough week for #BFCR3 week 3. Ran out of a med Tuesday and only got it back yesterday.
Read 1 book
Out of the house 2 (once for a spa day, so there's 1 self care)
No physical activity (lucky I got out of bed lol)

I wasn't as impressed with this addition to the series. The pacing was too fast, there was little character development, & Patricia spent quite a bit of time thinking about the Captain. Here is my full review: https://tinyurl.com/yyd38gsx I do still recommend the series, the characters are entertaining & the setting is a place into which you can escape.
I received this as an ARC, and all opinions are my own.
#BFCR3 @wanderinglynn @Laughterhp
I have spent all my time since Thurs keeping up with my email (who knew Indie authors had so many contests?!), family time too thankfully. I haven't been able to read or write notes (I feel bad about not getting back to my #LitsyLove and #JB friends) & I also have a stack of books to read/review. BUT I'm feeling petulant and want to read something fun & mindless. 😖🙄 I'd write my notes, but parents are sleeping so not enough light. Rant over. 💖
Congratulations!!!!!!! And it's awesome the way you've decided to celebrate by helping an Etsy entrepreneur.
The tagged book is one of my favorites, and I reread it this summer. In between ARC reviews, I'm hoping to get to read the next book!

I'm late this week. I had a migraine yesterday afternoon. Spent the whole gorgeous day sleeping. 🙄😖
As stated somewhere on my reviews, I've increased my book goal due to reading some #A2Z books. They're tiny. The 4th book was a read of a manuscript that's not published yet.
Lisbon is hungry & dinner isn't ready. Several animals offer part of their dinner to her, but she refuses. The illustrations are fantastic! Such detail & saturation of color brought the pages to life right before your eyes. A wonderful picture book for children.

@wanderinglynn @Laughterhp
While counting these books for #BBRC, I will be increasing my target. (They're so easy I feel guilty)
This story was adorable, about a little girl and her bearded bear friend. As they travel they meet more bearded animals that help them and show them new things. This was such a cute way to teach children that someone who is different is not weird. If you get to know them, you may have wonderful adventures with a new friend.

Finally got to start on my replies today, but only got through 2.5 because of the shaking in my hands. 😖🙄 They'd better behave tomorrow, I have 19 more to do! 💖
In book 2 of the series, Agent Victoria Heslin is called in to consult on a missing person's case in Charlotte by her boss. In the course of her investigation, she comes across a large sex trafficking ring, the 2nd theme which runs parallel with the missing person. I really enjoyed this book & can't wait for the next one! I received this as an ARC.

#Two4Tuesday @TheSpineView
🐈 I hate how my library is sorted. As it's ebooks, it makes it difficult and twice as long to figure out what genre the book should go in (over 1000 books don't help). I've gotten them to top level genres, but it's still too chaotic for me.
🐈 I just moved 18 months ago to live with my parents, and I'm still trying to get acclimated. Never easy moving back as an adult, even with a valid reason.
Such a great surprise when I got home!! Your well wishes were desperately needed today, so thank you! @Morr_Books @Rissreads @aroc @nelehelen #litsylove #jb
Again Patricia Fisher drew me in to a delightful, entertaining story. An on the run gangster & his reluctant bride-to-be join the passengers on the Aurelia, leading to the gangsters he's running from to infiltrate the cruise liner. The bride-to-be is kidnapped, causing hilarious trouble as each group of mobsters try to find her. Patricia leads the gangsters on a merry chase while trying to come up with a plan to find out who kidnapped Cari & why.
