I came home to this book at my door. My friend sent this to me from across the country. Time to get reading!

I got some bad news today, and I just needed to loose myself in something and apparently the audiobook version of “Carrie” is doing the trick…

I‘ve been sick this past weekend and my lovely friend dropped me off a care package including the book and blanket! Perfect reading for spooky season…

As a librarian, and book nerd, I have to admit I was curious about this one. I‘m actually quite enjoying it. It‘s a little dose of much needed book joy 🥰

I love Stephen King, but I want to try and read some horror books that aren‘t written by him. I was suggested this one, so let‘s see how it is…

I‘m almost finished this one.. usually books don‘t scare or creep me out but this one is creepy! Listening to it is definitely making it creepier! I feel like I may need to listen to it again to catch everything.

I‘m excited to read this one and then maybe see the movie? 🧐

This audiobook just came in! I hope it was worth the weight! 😌

Nice audiobook to drink coffee to before I must go to work.

I‘ve been listening to this one for about three months. It‘s so wholesome and feel good. I don‘t want it to end, but I have less than an hour left to listen. Alas.

So, apparently, I am on something of a Stephen King kick lately. I was going to listen to a different audiobook but I think it‘s been a Stephen King kind of a day!

I remember my sister reading this one when I was little- about twenty years ago- and telling me about what was happening. I was terrified. I think it‘s time I finally read it myself…

I‘ve been waiting for the moment all weekend when I could finally sit down and crack this one open!

My library hold came in!

Ooof

Picked this gem up on my first trip to Maine..

Getting ready for my first trip to Maine…

I have to admit, I love the title. I think this is hilarious. “He‘s not fake…he‘s Canadian.”
So far, it‘s cute.

I‘m about a third of the way through this odd duck. I don‘t quite know what to make of it but I‘m enjoying the oddity thus far. 🧐

I preordered this on Audible and it was delivered this morning. I can‘t wait to finish work so I can listen to this one!

Just finished this one for the second time. I must admit I appreciated it much more the second time around. For all her faults, I can‘t help but be fond of Emma📚🥰

Finally…

Okay, so I usually don‘t love romances. That being said, I really loved this one. It was fun and quirky and I actually liked the main characters and their banter.

I‘m loving the witty banter in this one!
It also helps that the main character loves literature and works in a university library. Apparently, I‘ve been really into romance novels lately… 📚

Library hold finally came in!

I‘m currently 35% of the way through this and I‘m really enjoying it!

I‘ve already completed my 2023 reading challenge but I think I can read one more before the end of the year.

This is totally the holiday vibe I‘m going for…🎄😎

Just finished this one yesterday…I would give it 3.5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️ because I‘m still thinking about it the next day. I do have mixed feelings about it though.

An emotional gut punch.

Well at least this one can counter “IT.” It‘s much more light hearted 😂

I‘m about 70% of the way through this monster. It‘s the first time I‘ve really made it this far. It‘s hard to stomach but I can‘t stop listening. Only 12 more hours to go!

I usually don‘t like romance novels at all, but this one was light hearted and fun to listen to. I think I enjoyed this one more than the first.

Mama Cat and I enjoyed this one. We would say ⭐️⭐️⭐️. It‘s satirical and odd but I‘m still thinking about it.

My sister recommended this one to me. I‘ve heard really great things.

I‘m still making my way through this one.. my understanding has improved but I must say I‘m struggling with idioms. 🙄

I have no words… so powerful… I don‘t know how I feel with this one. I‘m not even half way through yet…

My hold came in…

Found this one at a little used bookstore. I got to say hello to Seamus, the cat, and now I am curled up by the lake ready to get reading.

Apparently, I can‘t get enough of Joe…

I‘m half way through this one and … wow.. it‘s lyrical and beautiful.

My friend and I started a “bad romance book club” , but so far, this one isn‘t so bad 😅

I thought I‘d be waiting a lot longer for this hold to come in from the library! 📚

This makes me wish for Spring…🌿🌼

My husband found this little gem. I must admit I am excited to have it in my office at the library. 🥰

I must say, I think this was one of my favourite years for memoirs. Both of my favourite non-fiction reads for 2022 were memoirs. 1) I‘m glad my mom died. 2) Crying in H Mart. #bestof

Even though I completed a degree in English literature, I managed to do everything in my power to avoid reading this one. My father rather loved it and I thought he was crazy. Fast forward seven years and I am trying to read it for the first time, and I must say, I am rather enjoying it! #classics

It finally arrived!! I preordered this months ago! I can‘t wait to dive in over the upcoming holiday weekend!

I wanted so badly to love this book. It‘s my friend‘s favourite book and I‘ve heard excellent things for years. However, I found that for me, nothing really happened. It was slow and then when I realized what the insidious element was, it kind of fell flat to be honest.

Wow. This is a quiet, unassuming force to be reckoned with. I highly recommend!
