Thanks for the tag, what a fun question!
I'm a sap who just wants to see people happy so I'd probably invite all my favorite romcom couples: Alex & Henry, Dev & Charlie, Luc & Oliver, Delilah & Claire, Astrid & Jordan, Simon & Baz, Ellie & Jack, Nick & Charlie
We would play board games or do puzzles and it would be a magical queer game night with laughter and love 💖✨

I'm minutes from starting the workday, but I'm going to start Stephen Hawking's Brief Answers to the Big Questions.
It's my birthday and I've got questions! Mostly to do with what my daughter hid in that bag... 😜
pick#31BookPics Day 3: I named this as one of the #Underrated overlooked picturebooks of 2017. This is a meditative, thoughtful story that can have multiple interpretations. It is a powerful book on bereavement, dealing with loss, and ruminations on life‘s ultimate meaning in the face of a staggering loss that seems all-encompassing. My full review of tagged book along with other #Underrated 2017 stories here: https://wp.me/pDlzr-hhY
📖 alphabetically by author and the ebooks with the Calibre program
📖 people have different tastes and different favorites... so it depends
📖 I loooove the smell of books!
📖 no.... But if I read the ebook version and really like it, sometimes I buy a real copy to put on my shelf 😊

Repost from @MaleficentBookDragon :
I think I‘m going crazy. Is there a reading challenge coming up where we will be rereading books from when we were younger? What‘s the # or Litten who‘s running it? I cannot remember.

2) I do my shopping in Nov so we have time to do other family things in Dec - go see Christmas lights, watch Christmas movies etc
3) I sponsor kids in Bangalore and Uganda so we give them extra this month. Also women‘s refuge.

#litsyquestions
Mystery. Reading on the couch. Hot cocoa ☕️. Autumn 🍂. Fiction. Paperback. Paper bookmarks (I have 1 metal and it would always fall out). No notes. Superheroes.
There is an odd reality that suggests we are not allowed to be respectfully honest or to ask and be curious about others or our own beliefs, traditions, etc. there is no wrong is asking. There is only wrong when we fail to do so. #BeCurious
I try for 4 books each month.
I love long book.
A good YA book will get me out of a slump.
My Goodreads challenge this year is 60. I‘m about 2/3 done.
I will try any genre, but don‘t love science fiction.
Library receipts make great bookmarks!
Hundreds!
All of them!
I want to open a bookstore someday and feature discussion groups.
Ok, @MinDea I'll bite this time. ? ?
--books per month really varies. And I almost never read straight through. For instance, currently I'm in the Lumberjanes series, the Giant Days series, a bunch of other comics, Gwendy's Button Box, Boy Snow Bird, Ginny Moon...I think you get the idea ?
--I prefer shorter (~500p) books unless I LOVE it then it can't be lone enough ?
--if I'm in a reading slump I don't sweat it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Rest in comments
~ 4-6 a month. I try for one a week.
~ Either, but shorter books are easier for me to finish in a week.
~ I either pick up a mystery/thriller as those usually grab my attention quickly or go on a reading hiatus.
~ 52, one a week.
~ Romance. Just can't get into it.
~ My flexiwood Harry Potter bookmarks, but really anything will do!
~ Over 300!
~ All the books!!!!!
~ I have horrible insomnia and am lucky if I get 4+ hours of sleep a night.
