My Goodreads goal for 2025… added 5 books from last year! Here‘s hoping for a good reading year!

Next up for #auldlangspine

@MallenNC @monalyisha

Finished my first book for #auldlangspine and last book for #wintergames2024
I really liked this one but was a little bit disappointed with the end but overall it was an interesting read.
 @MallenNC @monalyisha

I overachieved my goal of 70 books this year - happy with this total. Now to decide my goal for 2025!
Happy New Year 🎆

I know it‘s not officially January #auldlangspine but the library hold expires in 7 days so starting this one a few days early before it disappears from my kindle. @MallenNC @monalyisha

Thank you to @Megabooks for my great #jolabokaflodswap package! I read your email before I opened the package and was so excited to see the book (and chocolate!).
Thanks again and thanks to @MaleficentBookDragon for organizing this great swap. Can‘t wait to read tonight!
Happy Holidays! 🎄🎉💕

This past week I totally slacked on #wintergames2024

My #jolabokaflodswap package is going to the post office tomorrow and on its way to the Midwest from NY! @MaleficentBookDragon

My #jolabokaflodswap package arrived.
Can‘t wait til the 24th to open it! @MaleficentBookDragon
I can‘t remember who sent it to me - but if you are checking it‘s here!

I enjoyed the first book in this series so much I immediately downloaded the second - and it‘s great for lots of word search points! I know I‘m missing at least half of them! #wintergames2024 #xmaschacha @StayCurious

This list looks great! Think I‘ve only read one or two of them already so excited to start going through them and can‘t wait for January! 🎉📚
Thanks again for organizing @monalyisha and looking forward to reading @MallenNC #auldlangspine

Up next for #wintergames #xmaschacha
I recently read Elin Hikderbrand for the first time and liked her - I always thought she might be too mushy, romance for my taste but the one book I read didn‘t seem so - so hoping I like this one!

This broke my heart a little this morning…. But it‘s so true! I once read the slowest breakup you will ever have is with your son - my son is now 15 and I feel this every day 😞 even though I know it‘s the right thing.
I find it an amazing part of reading when an author find the words that hit you right to t he heart ❤️

I haven‘t posted much this year - but this is one of my favorite parts of Litsy so reposting the sign up link.

@bookandbedandtea @TheAromaofBooks
Any of these sound good?

Finished this early this morning before work! A little crazy! I‘ll get it back to you as soon as I can get myself to the post office. Sarah - hope you got the book I mailed a few weeks ago - I think I forgot to post it here.
@TheAromaofBooks @bookandbedandtea
Also - this was the last book in the round? Do we want to do another round or take a break? Im fine whichever way.

@bookandbedandtea the book came today! @TheAromaofBooks I‘m running a little behind - I‘ll have it in the mail by Friday!

I did a search for good but underrated mystery books and these sounded interesting - let me know what you think j @TheAromaofBooks @robinb @bookandbedandtea

The book came today @robinb
Of course I‘m running late with mine @TheAromaofBooks but hope to get it in the mail by the end of this week or latest Monday.

Saw the coolest thing in Oslo Norway this past week- a phone booth which is pretty rare to@find these days but inside was a free library - Genius!! Saw a few of them around the town and loved it!

My current view in Bergen Norway. So beautiful here but we head out tomorrow. Reading this book that takes place in Copenhagen which was our first stop on our trip…. Love reading about place I know or have been to… anyone else?

This is coming your way - going to the post office tomorrow @TheAromaofBooks
Was a bit of a slow start but stick with it - picks up and I enjoyed it #lmpbc
@robinb @bookandbedandtea

Took a while for this one to come in from the library holds but excited to start this next one off of the #auldlangspine list from @kspenmoll @monalyisha

Was thinking of this one for our next @TheAromaofBooks what do you think? @robinb @bookandbedandtea #lmpbc #round20

I keep hearing about this Netflix show and how it‘s based on a book and sounds right up my alley…. Decide I should read the book first and then watch the show only to see on my Goodreads account that I read it and gave it 4 stars in August 2016…. And have no recollection of it! 😂
Debating rereading or reskimming or just going to the show?? I guess I liked it 🤷🏻‍♀️😂 Hate when that happens! Am I the only one?

Third book from #auldlangspine @kspenmoll @monalyisha

Loved this one too! Woke up early to finish it- such a great story.

This was a great mystery - loved the main character so much I‘ve requested the first book in the series. Happy to have found a new series to get into thanks to @kspenmoll and #auldlangspine

Of course all my library holds for #auldlangspine came in at the same time. In the middle of both of these and enjoying both of them. @kspenmoll @monalyisha

Love when I‘m reading a book and it mentions something in my neighborhood - I pass by Creedmoor every day on my way to work as it‘s only a mile from my house - the top right picture was taken today in the fog making it seem even more creepy… it‘s the largest building around for miles in this part of Queens. Also - on the campus are 3 public schools and currently a tent migrant shelter. Interesting place… #literarycrew @Librarybelle

I finished this today for the first book for #auldlangspine
Liked it a lot - especially the dual narrative and setting - and I might be going to Stockholm in the spring. Had to google the paintings to see them for myself. @kspenmoll @monalyisha

Ended up with a total of 18,469 for the month! #winterganes #gangstawrappers
Thanks for @Clwojick @StayCurious for hosting and @Bookwormjillk for being our group leader.

@MidnightBookGirl @Traci1 @fandom_hellspawn99 @Alora @bthegood @Pigpen_Reads @JessieKB happy new year to my teammates! This was fun!

Ready for the new year!

Well - not going to make it this year - although I did read about the same as last year. I definitely get too wrapped up in tv…. Have to set a more realistic goal because I haven‘t met it in 2 years 😔

Planning to start this one tomorrow for #auldlangspine @kspenmoll @monalyisha
Happy New Year! 🎆

1. I think I would say Hello Beautiful by Ann Napolitano
2. Idk
3. Just going by a neighbors house
4. No
5. Brown Christmas - was quiet but peaceful ☺️

Excited for #auldlangspine with @kspenmoll
All of these books are new to me except the Louise Penny. Going to start putting in my requests at the library. @monalyisha

This was a fun little mystery. #wintergames #gangstawrappers @Bookwormjillk

Flipping channels and came across our team movie from the beginning - settling in to watch #gangstawrappers #wintergames @Bookwormjillk

My #jolabokaflodswap arrived yesterday!
Looking forward to Sunday! @MaleficentBookDragon

A bunch of my other Christmas books are still on hold from the library (waited too long to request and everyone must be getting them for winter games 😂😉) but found this and have heard of the author so going to give it a try. #gangstawrappers #wintergames @Bookwormjillk @bookwormjo
