Mehso-so

I wanted something light for some escapist reading, and that's what I got. I didn't like it at first - the jokes weren't making me laugh. But when I realized I was taking it too seriously, I relaxed and took it for what it is. Then I liked it more. Still, nothing to write home about. I was entertained.

Who's gonna tell authors that no one texts/emails like this?

Patchshank I hope not. Reading that gave me a headache. 4y

My friend and I have been using this same gorgeously bookish gift bag for birthday presents to each other since we first became friends while English majors together in college. It invariably contains book gifts... for obvious reasons. This has been going on for nearly 20 years. The Bag has made its way from LA to San Francisco to South Africa and back during that time. And then her husband was “helpfully” cleaning the house this morning... 😱😫

SilversReviews Oh my. 6y

OrangeMooseReads When I first saw the picture before reading anything I though “someone is in deep 💩 for eating all the sixlets” I‘m glad the bag was rescued 6y

BarbaraJean @OrangeMooseReads Yeah, there is a puzzlingly large number of Sixlets wrappers!! I should ask her about that... 😂 6y
UrsulaMonarch What an amazing bag!!! 6y
UrsulaMonarch @OrangeMooseReads I would totally read a story about the mystery of the sixlets (I mean, to start, I had to look up what they are!!) 6y

Cinfhen I think after this one I'm taking a break...these swaps are becoming something else , a different type of atmosphere on Litsy and I don't like it 😔I'll still do giveaways and exchanges with trusted friends 💕💕💕💕 @TrishB 7y

Cinfhen I‘ve loved all of the people I‘ve had so far @hermyknee I‘m sorry if I gave the wrong impression! It‘s just I‘ve seen some posts that have been so negative 😔also expectations have changed, and I understand when u put time, effort, thought, love and money into an exchange ~ it‘s upsetting when it‘s not reciprocated. 7y
Cinfhen I had that experience with my summer exchange 😔it‘s not fun to receive something given with no thought but that‘s life (edited) 7y

#marchintoreading day 29: #bookbag
Sadly I do not have a proper bookish book bag! I just use this big tote from my husband's company because I need a really large and sturdy bag to transport all the many picture books I drag to and from the library!
What's in my book bag is far more interesting than my bag itself! 😀 But I've had such a good time eyeing all of your wonderful bags!!
