Welcome to Litsy!

Octobers #ispybingo has been shared by Clwojick is up!

For those of you still hanging in there for #ISpyBingo, here is Octobers board! Good luck!

For any #Scarathlon participants, if you join in, the standard bingo points apply!

I can‘t believe it‘s almost October. Here‘s my #bookspin list…I feel like I‘m pushing my luck posting it this early! Hopefully I won‘t need to make any changes. 🤞🏼

Thank you for hosting, Sarah! @TheAromaofBooks

#BookspinBingo

Unbelievable that October is a week away but here we are. Looking forward to all the fun that spooky season brings! 🎃👻💀

Thanks to Sarah for keeping us motivated!

My September Bingo Board!

Excited about this month…I‘m about 2/3 of the way through The Three Musketeers already.

#bookspin - The Death Of Mrs Westaway
#doublespin - We Begin At The End
Book Club - Search
#chunksterchallenge2023 Q3 - Hawaii

And they all line up nicely to get bingos!

Thank you for hosting, @TheAromaofBooks #bookspinbingo

August was a good #BookSpinBingo month! I finished my #BookSpin and #DoubleSpin selections and finally got a bingo, after missing out the past couple of months.

Thanks to @AromaofBooks for continuing to host and provide encouragement!

Considering what crap this month has been I did pretty good. #bookspinbingo for August

Happy to get a bingo this month! It feels like my book slump is gradually letting up. Cozy fantasy, middle grade novels, and page-turning mysteries helped a lot! #bookspinbingo

My August bingo board…totally abysmal reading month. I only finished 4 books, but made 1 bingo and worked through big chunks of Hawaii and The Three Musketeers. Honestly, with the busyness of back-to-school in August, you‘d think I‘d know better. 🤪

Somehow I managed to read my #bookspin and #doublespin though!

Looking forward to a better September! Thank you for hosting, @TheAromaofBooks 📚

#bookspinbingo

So for the month of September my #bookspin reading list will be all nonfiction!I think I've curated a fun and interesting selection. @thearomaofbooks

Well my #mangathemed #bookspin month of reading was a smashing success for me. I was introduced to so many good stories and authors! Plus it was fun to have a theme. @thearomaofbooks

My #ISpyBingo results. No where near a Bingo but.. I had fun looking for different things when I picked my books.

Earlier than usual, but we wanted to get this out with plenty of time to plan, since some of these prompts are harder! #ISpyBingo #septemberbingo

July 2023 Bingo board: 3 bingos. For the month I listened to 7 audiobooks, read 7 books from my TBR: 3 were nonfiction & 4 were fiction. Probably my best month of reading ever. Favorite books of the month: Salyut, Enchantment, & Neurotribes

August #bookspinbingo board!

#bookspin - The Summer Of Broken Rules
#doublespin - Hello Stranger
#chunksterchallenge2023 Q3 (400 pgs) - Hawaii

Looking forward to a great month!

@TheAromaofBooks

I swear after Readers on the River I‘m going to focus on clearing this board. I‘m so close in so many lines. 😬😬😬

#AlphabeticalBingo @Clwojick

Here is my #AugustTBR #bookspinbingo card!

My #bookspin pick is: Godkiller by Hannah Kaner which I‘m excited to read - fantasy standalone!

My #doublespin pick is: A Gathering of Shadows by V.E. Schwab - I read book one of this series several years ago and never continued, so I‘m going to read book 1 again and hopefully get to this book 2 as well.

This TBR is too ambitious, but we‘ll see how it goes.

August #BookSpin list

Well, the reading slump continues. But at least I got a #bookspinbingo

July wrap-up:

10 books read
3 bingos!
435 pages of my chunkster
1 classic
2 #unreadbookshelf
5 #14books14weeks2023
And, I read my #bookspin (still working on my #doublespin)

Looking forward to August! Thank you for hosting, @TheAromaofBooks 💕

For July's #BookSpinBingo, I didn't get to my #DoubleSpin book but I did manage to finish my #BookSpin book, and after a dry spell, I finally got a Bingo as well!

Thanks to @TheAromaofBooks for hosting!

Here we go…August‘s #bookspin list!

Thank you for hosting, @TheAromaofBooks 🥰

So this is my August #bookspin reading list. I'm doing a themed read! Trying to mix it up. All the titles list are recommended by either co-workers or friends and family. Plus these will be light and easy reads. Perfect for my end of summer book pile! @thearomaofbooks

Well, I've had about two weeks off so I dedicated it to my favorite thing...which is reading! My #bookspin bingo card is filled! And just in time for my birthday tomorrow as that day is the day I'm book shopping! @thearomaofbooks

Getting close to some bingos. Might be time for some targeted picks.

#AlphabeticalBingo @Clwojick

July's #BookSpinBingo board is all set!

We just got back from vacation last night after driving from Oak Island, NC to Boston. Happy to be home but not ready to be back to regular routines. I had 1 bingo for the month of June. I listened to 6 audiobooks, read 1 book off my Kindle, & read 5 books off my TBR. Audiobooks have definitely helped me get to read more. #bookspin bingo

My June results for #BookSpinBingo: I didn't get a bingo but managed to finish my #BookSpin and #DoubleSpin choices, so I'm happy with the results!

Thanks to @TheAromaofBooks for hosting!

My July #bookspinbingo board. June was a slow reading month…we‘re on our way home from a week-long baseball tournament in Pigeon Forge, TN and I didn‘t read at all. Hoping to catch up this month!

#bookspin - What You Wish For
#doublespin - The Three Musketeers
Q3 #chunksterchallenge2023 - Hawaii (planning on getting through 400+ pages

Thank you so much for hosting, Sarah! Bookspin is my favorite! @TheAromaofBooks

Here is my #JulyTBR #bookspinbingo board!
The rolls this month are going to make get to some big time backlist reads.

My #bookspin pick for July is House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielowski
My #doublespin pick is Charming the Prince by Teresa Medeiros

My Free Spaces may go to lots of thrillers/horror for #summerween too!

June bingo final! No bingos, but finished Les Miserables to complete the 1st half of my #chunksterchallenge. Also finished my #bookspin and #doublespin.

#bookspin & #doublespin reads we‘re finished &
4 bingos!

Monthly wrap post coming soon.

Here is my July #bookspin bingo reading list. A wee bit ambitious but I think I can do it. Reading a couple of classics I haven't read before. @TheAromaofBooks

June was a good reading month! Managed to fill my bingo page! Hopefully, July will see me clearing out more of my endless TBR pile! #bookspin @TheAromaofBooks

My July #bookspin list. We‘re at a weeklong out-of-state baseball tournament, so I‘m way behind where I‘d like to be reading-wise for June. I had to add a couple of books only July‘s list. Hoping to get caught up in my challenges!

Thank you for hosting, @TheAromaofBooks 📚

July Bingo!!! Never know what I want to read, so this is easier for me! I can't believe it's fixing to be July!

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

Not sure where June went but I guess it is time to prepare for July….

#BookspinBingo

I‘m sharing these 2 papers I received in the mail from Macmillan Audio. One is a Bingo Board and on the other one, I can write down audiobooks I want to listen to. The Bingo Board looks like fun.

Don't ask why my phone doesn't like my edit - I have no idea!

#ispybingo progress for June @Clwojick @TheAromaofBooks

#naturalitsybingo2023 progress @AllDebooks

Here is final #bookspinbingo card for May.

I completed my #bookspin pick - Jade Legacy (my favorite of the month) completed my #doublespin pick Witch Hat Atelier Vol 8 which was excellent as well.
I made 2 bingos (though I cheated a little as I just finished Mad Ship today, but it is really long!)
This was definitely an overly ambitious tbr as it included many chunky books. However, still a great reading month.

Here is my #JuneTBR #bookspinbingo card!
So excited to start summer break - we‘ve earned it #litsyteachers!

My #bookspin pick is The True Love Experiment by Christina Lauren

My #doublespin pick is Witch Hat Atelier Vol 9 - almost caught up on this beautiful charming manga.

Here we go…June‘s #bookspinbingo board!

#bookspin - In My Dreams I Hold A Knife
#doublespin - Les Miserables (also my Q2 #chunksterchallenge2023 pick)
Book Club - Summer At Tiffany

Almost all of these books are on this list to satisfy one of the reading challenges I‘m working on. Looking forward to a great month!

Thank you for hosting, @TheAromaofBooks @Amiable

May #bookspin bingo board, probably my best reading month ever. I read/listened to 13 books: 1 book on my Kindle, 4 physical books, & 8 audiobooks. 2 bingos for the month. Being home sick for the last 2 weeks has made it possible to get more reading done.

I'm excited to say that I got a #bookspinbingo this month (yay for generously placed Free spots!)...AND I even finished my #doublespin. Most books were pretty short, but a win is a win! 😁

In other news, I'm kind of irritated that I've been unable to log on to Litsy from the web (my preferred way to post), so I skipped some of my intended posts. Maybe I'll catch up later?

@TheAromaofBooks

June #BookSpin list

May‘s #bookspinbingo board. Technically, I have a few more pages left in one book, but I‘m counting it for May.

9 - books read
1 - bingo
2 - non-fiction
3 - 23 in ‘23

Thank you for hosting, @TheAromaofBooks Looking forward to June!

I finished my #BookSpin choice but didn't manage to finish #DoubleSpin or get a bingo. Still, with 13 squares filled, I'm pretty happy with May's result for #BookSpinBingo.

Thanks to @TheAromaofBooks for hosting!
