This started off with a bang.
A different kind of ghost story, I enjoyed the slow buildup and light twist.
It was ok, I felt like it dragged a little and the timelines confused me until 2/3 in.
I loved this book! The ending was a little sad but endearing and I enjoyed the full cast reading.
LOVE the podcast and looking forward to getting my hands on their book.
Slowly but surely I'll be back to posting as I once did. I've missed the books and Litsy terribly. #nonbookrelated
Life happens no matter what. Learning that you have impacted others in ways small or large makes you step back and look at the bigger picture. I loved this box and in true to its nature as the first it made me cry. Mitch's ability to make you connect with the characters is incredible and this sure packed a punch.
The only reason I came back home (besides the given fact that I need to work to pay for things lol) is to open my #jolabokaflodswap bc I clearly forgot to pack it when I left for vacation. I'm beyond excited to get this book started! Btw the chocolates will be gone by the end of today lol. Thank you @Judybskt and @MaleficentBookDragon
So I finished the movie and boy was it good!!!! Made me want to reread the book. If anyone has the showbox app you can watch it now through there.
Patiently waiting to be picked up to go out to you @Nessavamusic #jolabokaflodswap @MaleficentBookDragon thank you for hosting and hope to make this a litsy tradition!
@kaysworld1 I just emailed you about the delivery ETA for your #christmasbookswap and hope you enjoy everything in the packages! @MyBookSwapClub
YAYAYYYYYYYY its here!!!!! ##jolabokaflodswap is here. Now the waiting game! Thank you @Judybskt and @MaleficentBookDragon
Litsy friends! Please be sure to check out this amazing swap! So many great African American writers that would make this swap an exciting one! Head on over to @Chelleo page and sign up!!! #blitsyhistorymonthswap #blhms
HELP! What are the best/affordable ways of shipping to the UK? I've never shipped internationally and I don't mind but the the only carriers I know either are charging $200 or won't deliver until after the due date by a long shot. Any advice or methods you can share I'd appreciate. I would hate to send things straight to the address without putting effort into wrapping and such.
I'm going to NYC for the holidays this years and I'm so excited to be home for more than a weekend. With that being said this book stuck with me so much so that I'm planning on rereading it while in NYC. This will be patiently waiting in my cart until I get xmas shopping done. Look at how lovely this cover version is. #ineedsthis #holidayreads
#jolabokaflodswap just signed up for this fun swap. Don't miss out on a traditional gift share!
@MaleficentBookDragon
I got a get well soon package from one of my long time friends who always makes fun of my poor immune system, you know it's a true friend when they open one of the chocolate bags to grab some before sending it over lol.
Oh Milo and your 10,000 lives of lessons, funny moments but mostly love no matter how wrongly perceived, you will be missed! I loved this book even with the chapters that seemed to last for forever. The cover hooked me in bad and story plot kept me going, happy to have made this the last book for my #goodreadreadingchallenge
HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE! Look at all these wonderful gifts from my #allhallowsreadswap. A little sad that one of the books fell apart but I'll find a way to fix it! Thank you to my match who I only know their name but the not their litsy handle. I love love love my new mug!!!!! @MaleficentBookDragon
Well well well look what came in today whoot whoot! It doesnt have the sender's username on it but I'm excited! #allhallowsreadswap @MaleficentBookDragon
@JenlovesJT47 I didn't want to tag you until tomorrow but I rather be safe than sorry. I'm your #allhallowsreadswap sender who forgot to write it on the box lol. In true recycling tradition your package will arrive in a toner box lol. I hope you enjoy everything!!!
@MaleficentBookDragon
UGHHHHHHHHHHHH! I sent my #allhallowsreadswap package but forgot to put the # tag and who it's from on it bc I got so busy in the office. @MaleficentBookDragon can I message my recipient so she's on the look out for it? I did put halloween stickers on it lol.
One could never fight the temptation to buy a book from Strands
This was better than I expected and a wonderful reimagining of the book! #thehauntingofhillhouse
I'm not ready to return this book to the library!!! This gem is evoking feels I didn't expect to feel. Michael Poore's way of making you feel like you're sitting next to Milo is incredible.
This was more between a pick and so-so for me. There were moments of shock and horror, but I wanted more from this type of plot being that metal was heavily associated with satanism during its glory time. #audiobook
JESUS, what did I just listen to?!? I can't wait to meet him this weekend.
Sooooo the purchasing has officially begun! Buying the rest of the #allhallowsreadswap goodies this weekend and then to wait for a decent shipping date to send it out. What's in the bag? 😂🤔
Chai or matcha
Both
Scarves

Sally from The nightmare before Christmas
Ghosts, witches, and cats
#fallswapsurvey
When the library hold you forgot about comes in. Guess I'm reading 2 books at the same time bc there's no way I'm stopping We Sold Our Souls!
I'm interested in seeing how this would translate into a book. Would it be a similar theme like Sadie by Courtney Summers with the alternating blog and main character chapters? Either way this podcast has been my main focus with failed attempt to read during down time lol. If you have a chance check it out! #divingintohalloweenlike #aliceisntdead #horror #podcasts #podcaststobooks
What a happy Friday it is! This lovely surprise came in from my friend as a pick me up. I ordered my own copy a while back that has yet to arrive, hopefully in time to get it signed. Maybe I'll do a giveaway of the second copy 🤔.
SHUT THE FRONT DOOR! Look at all this awesomeness in one picture. I really wish I wasnt working now lol. Littens its HOCUS POCUS! I love everything from my box thank you @Kayla.Adriena for your generosity I cant wait to dig into these beauties!
#fffs #fallingforfallswap @Avanders
Fine I caved....more like I love Halloween and it was a dead ringer that I needed to part of this swap #allhallowsreadswap #ahrs
Sometimes I wonder if I throw my swapees for a loop when they get their goodies in random boxes lol (as seen here). This lovely toner package is on it's way to a lucky person in IL! #irecycle #fffs #fallingforfallswap #bookishgoodies @Avanders
Oh the similarities and that was just the first story! I picked the tagged book up bc it's a book that Joe Hill recommend when he was in Manchester and I can see why.
GAHHHHH this book is everything and more! Courtney Summers transition from the podcast to Sadie's chapters are delicately tied together pulling you in deeper and deeper as you read along. I want more on this story line!
Thank you NetGalley and St. Martin's Press for early access to the 5 star ARC!
