Anyone having trouble with the iPhone litsy app? This is a screenshot of what comes up when I log in = blankness! As though I've never followed anyone or posted anything 🤷🏻♀️ I'm posting rn from my iPad app, so it doesn't seem to be an apple problem...
Wow!
Litsy is the best social media community for me and I'm so glad I joined nearly 7 years ago.
In those years I've made many friends, discovered that there is no limit to the size of a TBR pile and that I like genres I thought I'd never read; still not a fan of biographies and poetry though. 😁
You're the best! 😘😘
@Litsy can you please address the issues with the Google Store and Android app? I'm seeing comments on the Facebook page about it.
Update, August 9th 6:15pm CDT:
It seems that images are back! I'm (@bibliotekate) seeing most images restored on my feed on the iOS app. Let us know if you're also seeing images or if the issue continues for you.
Hi All! An update on Litsy images: As you‘ve no doubt noticed, the app still has no images. We are so sorry for the interruption. Our developers are working hard to fix the issue. Amazon Web Services hasn‘t yet given us a timeframe for the recovery of images, but we're making progress. If you want to see images in your feed now, they have been restored on Litsy web:https://www.litsy.com/web/home.
Thanks for your patience and again, our apologies.
If you're using the app, please visit the Onward Litsy group to tell me if you're seeing images. If you're not a member of the group, tell me here. https://www.facebook.com/groups/OnwardLitsy
Anyone having issues with images loading on Litsy since yesterday? I‘ve been able to see posts but not the accompanying images / User pics. 😒 I have tried on the app and the web version.
Hi there! I‘m new to Litsy and trying to import my GoodReads catalog. But when I do that Litsy says importing, but no progress even after waiting over an hour. Is that function down? Any assistance is greatly appreciated, my apologies if this isn‘t the correct place to be asking this.
It‘s not a big number like some of you but yay 8,000!
I‘m off and on on this app, you guys make it wonderful but life gets in the way sometimes.
Because I want to remember who to credit in my reviews, and I'm finding more books I want to read over on Threads and other sites, I've created myself a spreadsheet so that I can keep track!
@suvata @AudiobookingWithLeah @MaggieCarr @Cinfhen
Also tagging the 👸 of spreadsheets @squirrelbrain 😂😂😂
How cool to catch this tonight! Litsy is by far my favorite social media - I adore all you fellow book people! ❤️📚❤️📚

Does anyone know who runs Litsy? Are they doing good with server costs and stuff? Do they ever need to do fundraising, or do they have a Venmo where you can buy them a cup of coffee or something?
Just wanted Littens to know that we heard about and fixed a bug with signing into Litsy via the web.
The bug lasted from yesterday afternoon until just now, and also affected some other user-related functions, like viewing user pages on the web. The apps were unaffected.
Best,
Tim
😂🤣 You Litsy readers have rubbed off on me 🤣😂
I used to read one book at a time, now I have an Audiobook of 'Eternal', a mystery ' The Girl and the Deadly Express ' physical book, and finally a history book, 'Hitler's Aristocrats' on my Kindle. All going at the same time. Audiobook for when I am housecleaning or in the truck. Physical book for during the day and my Kindle for at night in bed.😂
Got any novel suggestions? Preferably over 250 pages!!
Is #litsy still alive? I just joined, but am not seeing any activity.
What is your reading goal of 2023? Mine is 100! Check out my Goodreads to see what I have achieved so far! Link in my bio!
#litsylove peeps and #cardswap peeps we‘ve not had mail since last Thursday so 😵💫 mail going in and out is bound to be delayed! I ASSUME we will get mail today as the snow stopped yesterday!! Just a heads up 💌
I‘m a sucker for palindromes. 🤓 So, when I saw this pop up when I was scrolling, I had to snap it.
Will send a bunch of LitsyLove letters tomorrow but still didn‘t make bingo. Maybe with the next batch!

My #Scarathlon #WatchList, sponsored by my husband, who is excited that this reading challenge is motivating me to watch these with him 📺 I've never seen any of these, so I'm excited to dive in! 🍂 #Scarathlon2022 #TeamMonsterMash @StayCurious
Double duty as my #Scarathlon TBR and my #BookSpinBingo list! I enjoyed adding more books and stories on the team theme 🍂 #TeamMonsterMash @TheAromaofBooks @StayCurious
I'm not big on Halloween, but I love cozy fall vibes, so I leaned into that with my bucket list 🍂

Repost:
The Littens behind @LitsyEvents are looking for a few more hands to help post about what's going on on Litsy.
Head on over to their account if you'd like to join the team.
My #BookSpinBingo list for September is almost entirely books I've already started (yes, I'm reading almost 20 books at once 😅) and has new books in the slots that I finished last month! I also included a few by Nic Stone for #AuthorAMonth @Soubhiville . Looking forward to reading a lot in this less busy month 😊 @TheAromaofBooks #BookSpin #DoubleSpin
@Clwojick Thanks for making a fun prompt list for the #AugustARC #Readathon! Good inspiration to read (and review!) some of my poor abandoned advance reader copies of books. 😅 I'm in, and excited to tackle these after my August 11th wedding! 😊📚
@TheAromaofBooks I'm back in for August #BookSpinBingo ! Leaving the free spaces for #AugustARC, and everything else is a book I've started but not yet finished this year 😅 I won't get much reading in until after my August 11th wedding, but then @CounterfeitNickel and I will be busy bees reading away! 🥰📚
I know this is nothing like the 100,000 or even 10,000 points others have but it feels like an accomplishment!
Who will be like 7,000??
I just noticed … I‘ve read over a thousand books since I joined Litsy! I don‘t count the manga or children‘s books that I read so I suddenly feel accomplished. 🤣 I love stories. I collect books that I‘ve enjoyed! Im randomly looking forward to Fairy Tale by Stephen King, Babel by RF Kuang and The Babysitter Lives by Stephen Graham Jones.
I love my #spookysunmerswap package!! Thank you!! @Gaylagal2 Thank you @paperwitchs for hosting!!
I just signed up and haven‘t uploaded my books yet. Interesting platform! I gather there is no such thing as a forum for your favorite genre? This is strictly by-the-book (bad pun intentional heh)?
Anyhoo I‘m a relic who really loves historical mysteries. I signed up with good reads and learned later that Amazon owns it. pppphphlftt! 🤔 You can sum me up with four words:
I LOVE TO READ!
Thanks for the tag @CindyMyLifeIsLit
📚Litsy, Hoopla, Libby, Kindle, Libro, Goodreads, the occasional KU listen on Audible, & Google Play books rarely. I also follow bookish profiles on FB, IG, & Twitter.
📚Multiple times a week, if not daily.
📚Since you're already on Litsy, I recommend Hoopla if your library offers it. Lots of different media to borrow, no waiting, and many cultures are represented. Mine even has 3 week borrow times!
My books that I got for the #spookysummerswap have arrived now to get goodies and send it!
Is anyone else having issues with the Litsy app? It's been about 3 weeks since I could use it. I'm currently logged in on a web browser. #litsybugs 💻 😑
Wow! I can‘t believe it has been 4 years since I took the leap & joined this amazing community of people. I am so grateful for all the groups I have joined, the amazing support of starting a silly monthly challenge, but most of all I am so beyond grateful for all the truly awesome people that it has brought into my life. There will never be enough words to express how much you all mean to me! Here‘s to so many more years! 💙💙💙
Just sent out my first replies with #LitsyLove!! 💘
6 years!! I love this community so much!! I‘ve met friends that feel like sisters (looking at you @Cinfhen and @BarbaraBB 💜), exchanged letters and books with even more people, gotten through a pandemic with you all, and found so many wonderful books I wouldn‘t have known about otherwise. Ah, you all just rock!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻 #LitsyOG
Hey Littens! Just wanted to put you on your guard, especially any of you who are authors. There is an imposter account on Instagram, offering to sell authors book reviews and promotion. This is NOT us! Please do not give “librarything_hq“ any of your money! If you are on IG, please report them! They should not be doing this at all, and especially not masquerading as us. This is their page: https://www.instagram.com/librarything_hq/.
Hey all - I‘m just helping to spread the word on #LMPBC (Litsy Mark-up Postal Book Club) - it looks like there are just a few spots left!
It starts on March 1st.
Details and sign up:
https://www.signupgenius.com/go/5080444AEAD2CA0FF2-litsy14
When you fill out the comments, it is a good idea to mention what types of books you like to read. That way, people who like the same genre can try to be in the same group. Reserve your spot now!
Please share to spread the word!
Litsy Events is a sort of Litsy town hall, managed by a group of thoughtful Littens who want to be sure that no one misses any of the awesome community events available.
Follow @LitsyEvents and be sure to tag the account in any goings-on that need to be amplified. The account will signal boost #ReadingChallenges #BuddyReads #Readathons #LitsySwsps and any other inclusive, Litsy community-building events.
Would anyone want to #buddyread with me 1 book each month for this year? We can pick the books together and keep each other motivated in our reading journeys! Plus I just want someone to gush about books over! ☺️💕
I gathered my lists of books read this year into 1 list today (52 books total) and then chose my top 10 (listed here in the order I read them)! Although I didn't read as many books this year as in the past, there were so many good ones that it was really hard to pick only 10 - and technically I cheated by including 2 series 😅 Anyway, these were all amazing and I'd recommend them! 😊 (And if you've read them, I'd love to hear your thoughts!)
