Welcome to Litsy!

Looks like I‘m on #TeamGameSleighers for #WinterGames2021 and I‘ve been piling up books for the month. I have an ambitious TBR for the month. Some will be my #bookspinbingo but I may make a second holiday bingo board. I have a few of my own and have many on hold from the library! I hope this is good motivation for my reading!
The left is my holiday that got cut off but they‘re there!

#wintergames2021 TBR for December- I‘ve decided to make it books based in Alaska, other than the 2 buddy reads.
Can‘t wait for the games and fun to start. 🎄❄️☃️
#earlybirdpoints #teamgamesleighers

There are SO many more on my TBR but I thought I'd narrow it down to 10 for now 😂

Thanks to @emilymdxn for suggesting so many great reads 😍

I am SO excited for the #WinterGames2021 and also to be on #TeamGameSleighers with @StayCurious as my team captain!!💝

Today I'm going to be getting all those lovely #EarlyBirdPoints & doing a spot of planning for it all! 🐤 📅

Super cute! Finished in like four days!

This was such a fun book thank you @LeslieO ! The stories blended seamlessly which is super unusual. I liked the first one the best, but the whole thing made me smile and it was quick. I will say though- Green lives in Indiana now- he should be able to write plausible snow driving scenes🤦‍♀️ #merryreaders #wintergames

“Something about me has always liked the drama and inconvenience of bad weather.” Very true- especially when I know I don‘t have to drive in it 😂 Stay warm and safe WI littens- I think it‘s safe to say we‘re all getting this storm😂

I love when books and life converge. Enjoying some reading time while we wait for this large snowstorm- we‘re in the 5-10inch range. #merryreaders #wintergames

The last few days I was sick and didn't have motivation for reading. Most of the time I was lying and drinking tea. I watched a few cartoons (2 #HolidayEpisode ) and a #HolidayMovies Let It Snow. Movie was good cosy perfect for December.
And I also watched world cup championship of Alpine Skiing and Ski jumping.

This was a cute and fun read!!!
Loved how all three stories intersected with each other.
Well done to the authors on this collaboration! 😎🌺😎🌺😎

Merry Christmas 🎄☃️❄️ Hope you have a very happy holiday!!

Best of the season to you and yours. I hope there‘s plenty of time for reading over the holiday. #merrychristmas

Thank you for the awesome package! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

#theholiday is a perennial favorite for me so it‘s hard to find the same feelings in a book but this one‘s close! Three interconnected tales of love, romance, and kisses that will steal your breath away. #festivefilms @Klou

RECOMMEND! I didn‘t know this was a John Green novel, but watching the Netflix movie felt VERY John Green. My favourite xmas film this far! Diverse, integrated and nailing the fine line showing teenagers that deal with age-appropriate struggles, while also depicting them capable and with agency (unlike Dash&Lily who got to play grown-ups 😆) +6 #WinterGames2020

Here‘s my review.

On to the next film! #WinterGames2020 #ReadNosedReindeer

With no snow in sight, today's goal is to finish these stories.

I got over halfway through this book yesterday. It's just an easy, young adult, feel good novel, but sometimes that's just what you need. 💕

Any others like this that you'd recommend?

It's officially after Thanksgiving, so holiday-themed books are acceptable now. 🤓

I saw the Netflix adaptation of this last year and loved it. I also love anything John Green is part of, so let's dive in!

A wonderful holiday book to cheer anyone up. Cheesy, but cute like a Hallmark show.

Mini book haul from Thrift Books! Ready Player One is a replacement from our old collection, and I'm really excited for Let it Snow. I can't remember if I still have my other John Greens, but he's one of my favorites.

Half Priced Books just opened in my city. Is it worth going to? I mean, we're about to shut down again and I have no desire to be around people, but you know what I mean. 🤓

This trio of interconnected stories demonstrates that building a strong relationship necessitates compromise and putting #differencesaside #tropesinaugust @Klou

a collection of 3 love stories❤❤

What could be better than three stories woven together to create an epic finale?
The great race for waffles in snow hills
A man in plastic bags and love to give
Piglet

Hi Littens!
We have first winter without snow and I really miss it. Every year I complain when is snowing because I don't like to drive on snow road. But without snow is not the right winter.
What about you? Do you like snow or not? What kind or winter do you have this year?

A collection of 3 interrelated romance stories featuring high school students. The first story by Maureen Johnson was my favorite. It had a lot of humor and Stuart was a perfect character. The second story, by John Green, was my least favorite. The third story by Lauren Myracle started slow then got better. The ending brought together the couples from all three stories and left me feeling warm and fuzzy. This is a good book if you like YA fiction.

Book number 2❤️ I‘m on a roll. Can‘t stand to put this book down . I watched the movie and found out it was from a book so I had to get it 😍. #2 read a book that takes place in winter ❄️

I just finished Let It Snow. It‘s a very wintery read, about teens‘ love lives during a snowstorm. It has 3 stories by 3 authors. I forgot to write down the titles. The first one centers around Jubilee & is the best. The 2nd one is by John Green. I usually love his books but found this & the 3rd story pretty boring. #wintergames #thefilthyanimals @rather_be_reading
5 pts + 60 pts

Finished this on audio today, and this is a weak pick.

I loved the first story “Jubilee Express” by Maureen Johnson and the Norwegian narrator Kikki Stormo. I will absolutely listen to her again.

The two others “A Cheertastic Christmas Miracle” by John Green and “The Patron Saint of Pigs” by Lauren Myracle we‘re just OK.

But I don‘t think I was the intended reader for any of these stories.

60 points + participation +movies

4/5 ⭐️s I listened to this on the drive down to Mississippi. Cute and easy winter romance stories! I still need to watch the Netflix movie ❄️

This is the view when you read with a 72 lb dog who thinks he‘s the perfect size to sit on your lap. 😂

Finished this trio of #HolidayReads for #WinterGames today and really enjoyed it. The stories all intertwine even though they‘re all written by different authors and it was so well done. I‘m invested in each of the characters and want more of their stories!! #TeamFestivus

Clocking in at 7 hours for #24b42020.

1. Tagged on audio and starting The Great Pretender
2. Not sure yet, it depends on how much time I have. Might do a short one like The House on Mango Street.
3. I joined a book club for the first time through my library. And I‘ve read and liked all the books the librarian has picked out, even the ones I was hesitant about. #weekendreads @rachelsbrittain

Three sappy, seasonal YA novellas that were absurd and predictable and mushy....but I enjoyed them anyway.

My reading for the day. I finished the first story and loved it. Now I am in the middle of the second story. I‘m hoping to finish this today 😄

A cute read—-kind of like a YA Love Actually. 😊😊

Doing a bit of a #HolidayMovie marathon here.
I actually still need to read this book.

Starting the weekend with a holiday #TBR

Okay, Lauren Myracle, speaking as someone sitting in North Carolina (where the book is set) a few days before Christmas, sunrise is most definitely not at 6:30. Today sunrise was at 7:25. 🤦‍♀️

WHY, JOHN GREEN?! I cannot stand the "not like other girls" thing, and he should've known better, even in 2008. ??

Got some good reading in on the porch today thanks to our fire keeping us warm! #Pippin enjoyed some serious lap snuggles. ? Book was okay - very authentically teenagery, cute Christmas/winter vibes and cliché teen love, fun fluff for the week before Christmas/week after finals. ? Saw the movie earlier this week and it's more "loosely inspired by" than "based on" the book, but also cutely cliché. #dogsoflitsy

It was ok

This adaptation was fantastic! Highly recommend! #wintergames #holidaymovie #elfies @StayCurious @Clwojick @Bookwormjillk
