Welcome to Litsy!

I‘ve been reading this month but not doing much like posting reviews or joining in on discussions. Still intensely grieving my Max & also going through final processes for a new job that I accepted verbally Friday & will be signing the offer papers on Monday. It‘s still in Learning & Development but it is a remote job with regular Neighbor Island visits, a nice increase in pay & seemingly a removal from the stress & toxicity of my current job. ⬇️

@wanderinglynn March started off great but fizzled. My work trip threw off my mojo & zapped my energy. I didn't workout, per se, but I was on the go so much more.
Only 11 workouts, no new lunch recipe, but I did read 13.5 books.
I am also having phone issues so I can't access my usual yoga app. I am looking to figure out goals for the second half of the month this week. Maybe I need to get a new phone or a tablet.

I didn't accomplish all of my goals for #JoyousJanuary but I'm happy with my progress. I finished two books I had in progress and read Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. I made it about halfway through The Secret Life of Dogs and a quarter through The City We Became. Considering I also had 2 audio hours on a life organization book and read a book about Brazil customs & culture, I'm happy with what I read.

I must've been in the mood for a little romance because those 3 were my favorites.

Another month of lockdown & another month of good reading! I finished 13 books and participated in #bookspinbonanza #readinglittlewomen and #BOTMBuddyRead . Many of these also contributed to a few more steps up #MountTBR .

Now, on to June!

#MayRecap #MayWrapUp

A pretty good reading month thanks to working from home. Thanks @TheAromaofBooks for hosting #bookspin & #doublespin - it helps me stick to my goal of getting around to books on my huge TBR pile. Also a big thanks to @megnews and @sblbooks for #MiddleGradeMarch - I appreciate you letting me glom on to it and knock a few more books off my list. I'll be reading some YA with you in April.

My January reads! Top row are my favorites! This is probably the highest number of books I've ever read in one month 😮😮
Do you have a favorite book from January? Tell me!

February recap. Read 12, including my first audiobook. Still enjoying the Peter Grant and Flavia de Luce series, though I‘m now caught up for both until the next installments are published. #recap #februaryrecap #february

Fell asleep before I could post my #24in48 recap. My goal was just to beat 11 hours that I did for my last corporate readathon. Maybe next time I will do a full 24.
