Happy Halloween! 🎃👻🧙🏻 I had a great spooky season month. And I got a BINGO! #BookSpinBingo

🎃 #SeriesLove2024
🎃 #BookSpin
🎃 #DoubleSpin
🎃 Bingo!
🎃 no 5⭐️ but the tagged book and Lula Dean were 4.5

I skipped the last two months of #BOTM and I really wanted this add-on! This month‘s selections didn‘t thrill me but I chose the sweet, whimsical one. Seems like a curl up with a cup of tea on a snowy day type of book.

@Readergrrl Thank you so much for the fantastic #HauntedHollowSwap package! I didn‘t realize the pumpkins were earrings at first, so cute! The books and bookmark are perfect! Can‘t wait to start some spooky reading. I had to include a pic of the beautiful wrapping job! You are the best!

And thank you for organizing @wanderinglynn

I have a nice plan for November but I also have 5 library holds about to come in at once ( I know I could postpone some but I like to live dangerously 😄) so I‘ll probably be using up free spaces. Can‘t believe it‘s almost November! #BookSpinBingo

It came! Can‘t wait for opening day! #HHS24 #HauntedHollowSwap

#5JoysFriday
🍁Spooky season reads like the tagged book
🍁Football, especially my Bills with a big trade this week
🍁Fall walks, leaves are peak this week
🍁Apple season!
🍁The trees on my street in their yellow glory

Just starting this one. #spookyreads #spookyseason #bookspin

Forgot to take a pic as usual but my #HauntedHollowSwap package is in the mail. #HHS #HHS24

Really looking for to both of these. One for spooky season and Jackson Brodie❤️! #BookSpin #DoubleSpin #BookSpinBingo

Looking forward to spooky season!👻🎃🍁

Pretty great month! I read two 5⭐️ books (All the Colors + Here One Moment), one #Nonfiction2024, two back-to-school titles, one quirky British police procedural, one reread, and completed my #bookspin and #doublespin #readingrecap #monthlyrecap #Septemberrecap

I feel like I should have done better, as a retired school librarian. And having been a librarian I‘m not really surprised at any of the books on the list. People will complain about the weirdest things. #IReadBannedBooks #TLT #ThreeListThursday

Here‘s three of my favs from the list
📖 Speak
📖 Monster
📖 Eleanor and Park

Ready for spooky season. (Plus a few non-spooky) #BookSpinBingo

Can I make it to 100 this year? That‘s the real challenge. #2024readingchallenge #readinggoals

I think my #HalloweenAesthetic is cozy scary! #HauntedHollowSwap #HHS

I feel like I‘m on borrowed time! Still reading on my deck. We are having 2nd summer here in Buffalo. Temps in the 80s for a couple weeks and the awning is still up! Soaking it in while I can. Rereading this classic so I can continue the series. #stillsummerreading

🍁Loved the tagged book🧡
🍁I read a fair amount on my Kindle but I way prefer to hold a real book.
🍁I think it‘s a tie between thriller and contemporary fiction

🍁🍁🍁🍁Play along Littens! #wondrouswednesday 🍁🍁🍁🍁

If All the Colors of the Dark doesn‘t take me the whole month I will get to these two.😆😜

Great month! But I have a lot of summer books going back on the shelf until next year. Something to look forward to!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✅✅ (The Road to Dalton, The Wedding People)
Used all 5 free spaces! So many library holds came in at once!✅
#MonthlyRecap

I plan to start the month with the tagged book. Then on to some academia, dark and otherwise. #
Also hoping to reread The Shadow of the Wind and then finish the series over the winter. BookSpinBingo

Spent a few days at the shore. Came upon a silent book club on the beach, watched the moon rise over the ocean, read a few good books and visited my favorite vacation indie Thunder Road Books. Lovely. #summerreading

The tagged book has been high on my #TBR for awhile. Hopefully this is the nudge I need. Plus a beachy read. #bookspin #doublespin

Back to the mystery/thrillers. I was hoping the Riley Sager would be an add on. #BOTM

My goodness, @TheBookHippie , I feel like I just traveled to the lakes and mountains of the Pacific Northwest! 🪵🌄🌲🌲The books are great, I can‘t wait to read North Woods. I‘m suddenly into birds thanks to my Merlin app so I love the tote. The assortment of book clips is awesome. I may have already consumed half the chocolate, so not pictured! I love it all, thank you so much. #Staycationintime

Thank you for hosting @DinoMom @Chrissyreadit

Great month!

Last month of beachy summer titles. Can‘t believe it‘s almost August! But there‘s more sun to soak up! 😎⛱️🌻#BookSpinBingo

@TheBookHippie your #staycationintime box is on the way! The post office says it should arrive Saturday. 🤞📬📦

Well. This is kind of pathetic. #NYTTop100

Looking forward to my #BookSpin and #DoubleSpin but got distracted by my new #BOTM.

Love that the #BookSpin and #DoubleSpin are in the same column as 2 free spots. Maybe I‘ll get a bingo! #BookSpinBingo

I was hoping for one of these two this month. I was also hoping to only get one book this month. Oh well! #BOTM

“Dawn had not yet broken when Mike Stieglitz steered his blue Toyota Camry toward the White House on January 6, 2021.” A little something different in between the summer beachy reads. #FirstLineFridays

Ready for more summery reading! Really looking forward to the new Hilderbrand. And a few set in Maine. #BookSpinBingo

Completed my June #BookSpin and #DoubleSpin. Loved Clara, and tolerated The Writing Retreat. I had high hopes but it just fell flat for me. Better luck next month! #BookSpinBingo

Finally reading in my happy place! The weather has not been cooperating. Yesterday it was 56 degrees! Next week 90s. But today is a pleasant 73 and sunny. I‘ll take it. #summerreding

I haven‘t #DNF a book in a long time but this one just isn‘t for me. I loved The Dinner and have had this one on my summer list for years. But I‘m 80 pages in and I‘m not enjoying it so on to something else.

Hope to get to all the summery reads on the board. Plus the library books and the #bookspin and the #doublespin.😊📚#BookSpinBingo

What a month! Lots of good reads this month.

Tied my all time personal best! 12 books! Woo hoo! ✅
Read in one day ✅✅✅

#BookSpinBingo

Just a couple mystery/suspense picks, as usual. #BOTM

My favorite day of the year, the local AAUW used book sale! Added some series titles I needed, found a O‘Nan book I never heard of, added to my Hilderbrand collection. Only one nonfiction and I was happy to find it. All in all a great haul. I always say buying a book and reading a book are two separate pleasures! #bookhaul #MountTBR

Ready for SUMMER READING! Can‘t wait to dive in to a few beachy, sunny, summery reads out on my back deck! (If they ever put up my awning) First up will be Emily Henry. Summerhouse with Swimming Pool has been on my summer list for years so I have to get to it. Plus a few thrillers because I‘ve been whipping thru them lately. Let‘s go summer! #SummerReading #BookSpinBingo

Here are some of the “unputdownable” thriller/suspense reads I‘ve whipped through lately.

Ready to go! #BookSpinBingo

Book that‘s been on my board forever✅
Book I read in one day (tagged) ✅
The latest Kate DiCamillo (loved it!)✅
Great month✅

As usual I went with the mystery/crime fiction. Both set in the Pacific Northwest. They sound fabulous. #BOTM

Ready to go. So many I want to get to on this list. Trying for a record number this month. #BookSpinBingo

#IndependentBookstoreDay #BookHaul
The middle two are mine and the other four are my husband‘s . He‘s not even a reader! I‘ll have to leave him home next time 😆😜

Hoping to read more of my own books than library books this month. I always get distracted by the shiny and new. #BookSpinBingo

Very excited about both these picks. Especially since I‘m already halfway through the tagged book. #bookspin #doublespin #bookspinbingo
