Not me stalking #Litsy for the #AuldLangSpine registration to open up only to realize I made my list on my work computer and I have to try and come up with a new one off the top of my head 🤦‍♀️

I think I got the highlights and definitely a few extras 😅

Here are the books I‘m beginning 2022 with! The Children‘s Blizzard is my physical book (obviously 🙄), Into the Drowning Deep is my ebook, and We Were Never Here is my audiobook.

JamieArc Into the Drowning Deep came as such a surprise last fall being one of my favorites of the year (if you haven‘t read Rolling in the Deep, check it out! I found the audio on Hoopla). 2y
candc320 Oh yay, @JamieArc !! I saw it on TikTok and knew I had to read it! I‘ve not read Rolling in the Deep so I‘ll check that out too! 2y

#roll100 - not posting an entire 100 list. Each time a roll is announced, just going to do a count and pick those corresponding books. Books are in transition due to some remodeling so the stacks change once in a while. Keeps the selecting interesting though 🤣

PuddleJumper Sounds like a good idea, it adds even more chaos into the mix! 2y

I thought I had my list all ready to go & it still took me way too long to sign up for #NewYearWhoDis because I changed the order & added extra notes… but I‘m signed up & cannot wait to get my list! Hurry off to @monalyisha ‘s post if you‘re interested.

@BarbaraJean 3 books off your list made it onto my list of favorites this year… and I was seriously considering 3 more!

I‘ve done this three years in a row and found so many amazing books. ❤️⬇️

MeganAnn Special shoutouts to amazing past partners @TheKidUpstairs and @4thhouseontheleft whose lists have given me some wonderful books I probably wouldn‘t have read otherwise. ❤️❤️❤️ 2y
BarbaraJean I love it! Same here: three books from your list made it onto my list this year, and there were 3 or 4 more that were in the running before I winnowed the list down from the unreasonable number I first compiled! 2y

This seriously amazing activity is now open- but limited to 80 participants! The spectacular @monalyisha takes her time to match Littens based on reading lists- you agree to read at least one book from your matches list in January! I‘ve learned about absolute favorite books through this!

staci.reads This is my first time doing it. I'm excited! 2y

It's that time! Registration is open on @monalyisha 's page for #NewYearWhoDis! I've discovered some absolute favourites in past years off lists from @MeganAnn and @sprainedbrain and I can't wait to discover more this year! It's the way to kick off the year right!

monalyisha Hooray! Thanks for signing up! ✨ I‘ve matched you with some stars, for sure! (You‘re reminding me that next year, I should totally include a question about previous matches (to try to avoid repeats). It‘s 8:12am & I already have critical notes for myself. 😅🙈 Time for coffee!) 2y
sprainedbrain Yes!! @monalyisha is a matching genius and I love this event. Also, I‘m still planning to read at least one more of your books before the year is over, @TheKidUpstairs 🥰 2y
MeganAnn Yay!! I second @sprainedbrain @monalyisha is a matching genius! I love this event and still have books from past lists (Your‘s included! @TheKidUpstairs ) I want to read but haven‘t gotten around to yet. 😍✨ 2y

Numbers in the breakdown are for the number of books I need to complete for the challenge. The #surprisechallenge is being hosted on Litsy, but hasn't been announced yet so I haven't revealed the title 😊. It will be announced tomorrow (but it's not #bookspinbingo) so will update this post at some point!

Final total for #teamreadnosedreindeer #wintergames2020 @StayCurious is 630pts

I‘m participating in a couple of challenges in 2020 (#ReadingEurope2020 and #Booked2020), but I consider those just for fun. Here‘s what I really want to accomplish:

-Reduce my total owned but unread books by 125
-Read more chunksters, hopefully one a month

And that‘s it! Hopefully doable and I‘m very focused on the first one.

Did you set any reading resolutions?

Suet624 Read more of my owned books!!! I said this last year too, but this year I'm really going to do it!!! 4y
vivastory Holly, you have my address, just send those 125 my way. Problem solved! 😄 4y
vivastory Seriously though, I have the same goal. I'm either going to use the library or read from my owned books. I'm not going to say I won't be on a book ban, but I am going to be more careful about my purchases 4y

Soubhiville I‘m going easy on the challenges this year. I have 2 books left in #bbrc and I‘ll read with #authoramonth when I have books on my shelves for it. Other than that, I just want to work on my mount TBR. nice relaxed reading this year. 4y
Soubhiville Oh yeah, and of course the two bookclubs and Owl Post books. 4y
Hooked_on_books @Suet624 I‘ve said this before, too, but honestly wasn‘t committed to it. I‘m totally committed now! Hopefully we both make a dent in our stacks. 🤞🏼 4y
Hooked_on_books @vivastory Oh man, you have me howling with laughter! 🤣 I agree about care with purchasing. It‘s actually easier for me now, since there are few places to buy new books here and shipping takes forever, so that helps ease the desire. Hopefully we are both successful! 4y
Hooked_on_books @Soubhiville Relaxed is awesome. And your goal should be to fill your fabulous new library! So, really, you should be buying more books! 😬😆 4y

@Clare-Dragonfly recommends these!

If I have some time, I also want to read Gather the Daughters, but if I don‘t get to it next month, I‘ll add it sometime this year!

Some Saturday wisdom from Mr Elba! #newyearresolutions

julesG Good one! Watched the latest series yesterday. I think I spotted my friend in one of the last outdoor scenes of episode 4. There's a woman with a stroller at the end of the road when Luther and Halliday talk outside a house. 5y
Mitch @julesG I waited so long outside that house in filming day and didn‘t see him - just his body double! 5y
julesG They might have filmed early in the morning? 5y
