I thought I would post my #Bookmory calendar for July. I love seeing everyone's progress!!
I finished this book late last night. I am glad I got it done. I love the characters in this book. I rated this book a 4 out of 5 stars.
I am not going to do a TBR for #JubliantJuly readathon hosted by @Andrew65 I will be working on these books. I will update everyday!!!
Written in My Own Heart's Blood by Diana Gabaldon (book, on page 229)
The Hero of Ages by Brandon Sanderson (audiobook, 17%)
Madly, Deeply: The Diaries of Alan Rickman by Alan Rickman (ebook, just started)
I have finished it.
Of course, this book like the others, ended by leaving me wanting more. This book had me falling in love with Ian and Rachel, and crying over the loss too much.
#SirWatson #CatsOfLitsy #20in4
#20in4 Goals
1. Finish Written in My Own Heart's Blood
2. Start and Finish Blackbird
3. Go with my gut in choosing the Sager or Jayatissa to start next
My kids and I are alone this weekend as my husband is traveling with family for a bachelor party. The amount of reading I get done will heavily weigh on the attitudes of my children.

I'm savoring this series while summer lasts. ☀️ I hope everyone is staying cool and safe. Covid just got through my door and I'm hoping the one person can keep it to themselves. I'm vaxed and boosted to the max, so cross your fingers.
Meaning a person or thing at the center of attention. It stems from both Greek and Latin, literally a dog's tail. Which brings me to the expression, the tail wagging the dog, which means an important person is controlled by lesser important person.
What are some other dog centric words or phrases?
Book #8 in the series. There is so much going on in this book. 1776/1777 in the American colonies is a turbulent place, and 1980‘s isn‘t all that easy either. But the adventures continue for the Fraser clan and their acquaintances.
I‘ve been a little absent from Litsy lately but I promise I‘m still reading and working though some of my reading challenges. Hoping to post some reviews this weekend. Kicking of the weekend reading outside while my daughter plays in her new playhouse. I do love springtime!
Whew! Thank goodness I got my wires crossed and accidentally checked this book out from the library before the newest of the series, Go Tell the Bees That I Am Gone. After realizing it's been well over SIX (!!!) years since last reading it, this was a much needed refresher - so much happens and my brain really had lost a lot of the detail. Always a pleasure to spend time with Jamie, and the Brianna/Roger story line in this one is fascinating.
The promised #bookhaul post from the wonderful 💎 of a store called Around Again & Again Books. I felt it was fate that this 📖, which I needed for my collection, was available. The Shakespeare edition is stunning, and the new (to me) series is prehistoric fiction 🎉🥰💙. My husband picked the Star Wars Encyclopedia. 🥲 #tbr #bookworm #usedbooks #keepbooksalive
Those moments when your memorization of Hamilton comes in handy while reading historical fiction. You wonder why Charles Lee never attained renown as a Revolutionary figure, Claire? Because he shits the bed at the battle of Monmouth! Haha
I had such a nice time hanging with my grandparents this weekend! Now I'm at the airport and headed back to the city. Just started a re-read, the last chunky addition to the Outlander series. It feels like it's been a long time since I first read it, I hope I don't get lost getting back into the swing of what's going on ?
Excited to "visit" my forever book boyfriend, Jamie Fraser ❤️
Starting my year off by heading back I to 1778 in this 800+page book. Love like Jamie & Claire ♥️
The book was good. To say i really liked it is hard to sustain with a 1000+ page book, but there were parts I really liked. Roger and Bree‘s story pulled me in immediately and kept me interested. There were parts that focused on Lord John Grey and his son William – much of which I didn‘t find as interesting, though some parts were. Cont in comments..
Started the morning with a hike, then beer and nachos, now on to my favorite part—relaxing with my book 🧡 Happy Thanksgiving!! 🦃🍁
Hoping to finish my reread of the last Outlander book before the new one comes out on Tuesday! Might be a bit challenging because I‘ve gone into full Christmas decorating mode, but you never know. 🤷🏼♀️
This has become the year of the chunksters for me. I‘m starting these two today. They were calling to me. I‘m still working on War and Peace. That one might take another year. lol
Trying the audiobook for the first time! Getting a bit of a refresher before Bees!!
Jamie and Claire face enormous challenges (don‘t they always?) in this missive and triumph repeatedly at each hurdle. Part of me feels that this has ended in such a way to be the final book in this outstanding series, but I want more... and indeed there will be.
I got a chuckle out of this quote. Doctor Who is in Outlander! 🤣
Continuing my TBR project:
This is one the oldest selection on my TBR list - Originally added January 13, 2017.
Oh dear! How am I going to make it until Go Tell The Bees That I Am Gone comes out? 😔 sigh
I haven‘t cried so hard while reading a book in forever. A lot of suspenseful, heartbreaking and joyous moments in this book. I can‘t wait for the next!
Finally finished all of the published Outlander novels. Can‘t wait for the next one to come out!
The perfection that is this series continues with this book. I have no complaints or gripes. Gabaldon‘s research and attention to detail are flawless. I am so excited for the next book to come out.
Book 8...Completed!
I liked this one a lot! I felt their living in N.C. in the previous books were a bit slow but this one picked up speed. I enjoyed the Revolutionary War parts and Bree & Roger‘s smaller parts were entertaining as well.
I don‘t want summer weather to end! I‘m soaking up what‘s left of the warm weather and finishing up this book!.
We went on a camping adventure with some friends this weekend. I didn‘t get much reading in but thought I‘d give my Littens a chuckle for the day. This is what coastal flooding is!
Most recently #readaroundtheworld took me to Lake Bled in Slovenia. I was too busy rowing with friends to read on this beautiful lake, but best believe I wanted nothing more than to float lazily with Claire and Jamie to accompany me. On book 8/8, now we might yet finish before fall begins!
Lunch break reading and Angus wants attention!
Started this series 6 years ago. Book 9 should be coming out soon, and I‘m super excited to get started on book 8! I‘m taking my time because I don‘t want this series to ever end! I think I read somewhere that a book 10 is in the works?!
Just finished and I‘ve never needed the next book so badly. I don‘t know if I can wait until 2020!
This might just be my second favorite book of the entire series. I would have said my absolute favorite but I feel like nothing can replace Outlander and where the journey all started.
