Welcome to Litsy!

#Chatterday2025 @AllDebooks

After a coffee, yogurt and doggy cuddles, I started in on some cleaning. Cleaned the floors on the main level, ran the vacuum upstairs. Taking a short break then off to clean the master bath. So exciting. NOT! At least I have an audiobook to keep me company. Later, I am off to get horsey cuddles, then a late lunch with my barn buddies.

Sticking with the nature theme. ❤️🐦🦩

I made this template on the computer and printed it out. I'm going to try it out for May and see if I like it better than the handwritten one I normally use. I still love the tactical nature of writing.
#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

My May #BookSpin selection will be a book in a series for the #SeriesLove2025 challenge. My #DoubleSpin selection will be an Impulse read. I'll make my Book Spin board next.
@TheAromaofBooks

In April I read both my #BookSpin and #DoubleSpin selections. I was able to get six bingos. So close to a blackout. Maybe in May. 🤞❤️📖❤️📕❤️📚❤️

Matilda
The Hobbit
LOTR
Dune
The Pillars of the Earth

I am tracking my reading on a spreadsheet. Here is where I stand for the year and my April recap. My goal is 150 books this year. On track so far.

#WeeklyFavorites @Read4life

It was a hard decision because several books could easily have taken the top spot. However, in the end, I choose Wild Love by Elsie Silver because I kept thinking about the characters even after I finished reading.

#ThreeListThursday @dabbe #TLT

Favorites:
The Far Pavilions
The Very Hunger Caterpillar
The Day of the Jackel

@CBee You should score well. There are a number of Terry Pratchett books on this list.

These are the books I want to read for May's #Roll100 @PuddleJumper

Not sure on Iron Flame (it is book 30) because I want to reread Fourth Wing to refresh my memory. However, book 3 on my list is War and Peace and you guys know that one is not happening. 😂

Here is May's #ReadYourKindle ##ReadYourEbook list. @CBee

I've read several of my Kindle books in April not all necessarily on my list. Progress is progress!
#2ManyBooksNoTime

Here is my May #BookSpinBingo list. @TheAromaofBooks

In addition to reading my #BookSpin and #DoubleSpin selections, I would like to get at least two bingos. 🤞❤️📕

I hope everyone is enjoying April's selection Rabbits by Terry Miles. Discussions will be at the end of the month. In the meantime, the nominates are now open for the May selection of the #LitsySciFiBookClub Please place your choice in the comments and we will start voting at the end of the week.
Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from the tag list. ❤️📖🚀

These are the books on my schedule for this week. I've already started Wild Love and Guards! Guards! I hope to squeeze in a fourth book too. 🤞

Reposting for @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks and @Eggs

This is the #Bibliophile photo challenge for May. To play, post a book, poem, song, etc that you feel matches the prompt. Be sure to tag the hosts in your post.

I scored this cute bone shaped basket that I am using for my #LitsyLove mail. It was $3 in the discount cart at Dollar General.

Some more ##LitsyLove going out today. I am loving being caught up. ❤️📫🖋📬

@Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @TieDyeDude @Read4life

I mailed some #LitsyLove correspondence out yesterday and I have more going out today. I'm finally caught up except for a few letters I received in the last couple of weeks. Feels good to not be behind. Yeah me! 💜🖋📬📤

@Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Read4life @TieDyeDude

@JamieArc i am so sorry that it‘s been recently sent out. why I thought the date was October 10 and not the 1st. I forgot to post but it is out and i paid extra with UPS to try and do everything possible so it gets there by Monday at the latest. Again I am sooo sorry, it‘s not fair to you to wonder if you‘re getting a box and that was never my intention. Ive never not sent a box or sent it late so i feel really bad. #FFFS #fallingforfallswap

Six years in this amazing community
📚♥️♥️♥️Because of you...Litsy friends...I‘m still here, thank you for your support...always, for give me happiness through your support, comments, book recommendations, swaps, kind words, love this community 😘😘😘😘😘

I got a new phone and Litsy didn't copy over like all of the rest of my apps. Went to the Google Play store and it is not there. Sent a message to Litsy on FB this morning, but no word yet. I hope I can continue to keep up with this site on the web (if I remember!) until the app is available again!

Hit 1,000 Litfluence 😎 I know that's way lower than a lot of people here, but since I don't use the app super often, it's fun to see.

Thank you for the #litsylove @Lovesbooks87 @AmyG @Dragonfairykats ‼️💌🧡 I also received some bookmarks I ordered for an upcoming swap 🤓🤩 I am working tonight, but I hope to send back replies soon. I have some new animal notecards that I love 😍🐾🦜

Thanks for the early birthday cards #Litsylove 🎉
