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...

Texreader I get the same thing sometimes with the app. It seems to be working now for me. 1mo
Larkken @Texreader ah, ok. I'll just keep trying! Thanks! (edited) 1mo

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.

CampbellTaraL Truly! I almost uninstalled the Litsy app on Tuesday thinking that would fix the broken image problem and am SO glad I didn't. 2mo

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.

Clwojick Thanks for the update! I thought it was just me. 2mo

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.

Litsy Hi @SouthernComfort! I'm sorry I just saw your question. The Goodreads import option is currently broken. It's on the developers' list of fixes, but it's not top priority at the moment. And please know that if you have questions you can always reach us at litsy@librarything.com! 2mo

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?

xicanti Litsy is owned by LibraryThing. I‘m pretty sure all their costs are just a budgetary line in the wider business. (edited) 6mo

Litsy Hey. LibraryThing runs Litsy. I wouldn't characterize it as “a budgetary line in the wider business“—we're not IBM; we're a nine-person company! Even so, what we need is not money, but members spreading the word and enlarging the community. 5mo

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,

😂🤣 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.😂

CoverToCoverGirl That‘s how you do it! 👏 My husband is always asking how it‘s possible to always be reading multiple books all the time. My reply is- it‘s an acquired skill. 6mo
TheSpineView @CoverToCoverGirl Ask him how many TV shows does he watch and keep up with. This is what I say when people ask my why I have 3 or 4 going at once and how I keep them straight. 6mo
CoverToCoverGirl @TheSpineView Lol! I will. I seldom watch tv but he never stops watching it. 🤣 6mo
tpixie @TheSpineView that is the best answer!! Thanks 😊 6mo
tpixie @Monica5 yes! I mostly listen to audiobooks- while getting ready in the morning, driving around, doing chores in the house – but I always have a physical book for the bits of time I can just sit and read during the day. I love reading my Kindle in bed because you can read in the dark, it‘s easy on the eyes, and it‘s so light weight. 6mo

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!

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/.

Litsy The author involved in this exchange gave me permission to use this screenshot, to warn others. If you are interested in finding the real LibraryThing on Instagram, we are here: https://www.instagram.com/librarythingofficial/ 2y
Kboltz Thanks and who has all the time to ruin things? Thanks for notifying us of this. 2y
swishandflick Wow, pretty wild that they have 137K followers 😱 2y
janeycanuck I tried reporting the account as impersonating a business but your Instagram account isn‘t designated as a business. I‘m not sure what‘s involved there but you may have more success if your account is for business. 2y

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! ☺️💕

KateReadsYA I'd like to do it for one of the months this year! Probably can't do every month haha because I am too busy with all my boys hehe! 2y
BooksNBowls @KateReadsYA of course! I totally understand! I got to hook my boy up to his tablet to get my couple hours of reading in every day 😅 2y
KateReadsYA @BooksNBowls nice. I wish I could do that, my 2 yr old wants to do puzzles and my 4 month old loves to be held. Now my 8 yr old he is super into fortinite right now so I definitely get free time around him. Let me know what books you are interested in and we can do February! 2y

BooksNBowls @KateReadsYA you definitely have your hands full! I wish my 2 yr old wanted to do puzzles or play with toys 🙄 he‘s only interested in his tablet and the tv and going outside to run around! Okay I‘ll let you know! Do you only read YA, in which case you should pick because I haven‘t picked up a YA book in years although I do love them! 2y
KateReadsYA @BooksNBowls haha no, it's definitely what I mainly read but I pick up some other Fiction every now and again. I'll look through my shelves and see what I have TBR. I'll post a pic and let you pick?? Sound good? 2y
Emily92Bibliophile @BooksNBowls I saw you said you were interested in YA books- I read mostly YA because I am a School Teen Librarian Aide, and am in the process of getting my Masters of Library Science to work in the Public Library as a Youth Services Librarian 💙 let me know if you like any specific genres in YA and I can recommend some if you‘d like! 2y
Emily92Bibliophile @BooksNBowls wish I could do a buddy read but my hands are full with finishing up my Masters and work! 2y
BooksNBowls @KateReadsYA sounds good to me luv! 2y
BooksNBowls @Emily92Bibliophile when I did read YA I liked depressing books or dystopians, romances and vampire stuff 🤣 I was emo lol you can recommend anything tho, I recently read one of us is lying it was pretty good 👍🏻 2y

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!)
