#BeautifulWords Day 10: The soft and muted colors are a perfect match to Laura Salasโ€˜ #mellifluous and hushed voice as she โ€˜bookspeaksโ€˜ and touches our hearts with the music in her lines. I also love how each poem is put together like a string of book-pearls โ€“ perfectly crafted from start to finish. My review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-4zD

I‘m going to try an actual book journal this year. This one was offered in the December Owl Crate and they still have some for sale in their shop (that‘s how I got it). There are monthly AND weekly planning pages, new releases, monthly TBR, and book reviews. I also bought some pages from Etsy to see what I like. I want to try to incorporate this more into other types of journaling.

#31BookPics Day 14: This is a definite must-read for bibliophiles who have an ongoing romance with the crispy pages of books as they whisper secrets and truths to a readerโ€˜s ear. It is a tribute to readers everywhere and even makes mention of #PageNumber in one of the lovely verses. My full review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-4zD

Anyone need this? It‘s an iPad cover for a mini. My boys surprised me with a new larger iPad. Thanks.

Kaye I‘d be interested if no one else has contacted you yet. I don‘t have a cover for mine . 6y

AmyG Yay @Kaye. It‘s so cute. 6y
Kaye Yes it is, @AmyG . I‘ve had my iPad for 2 years and never gotten a cover for it, as I never take it when I leave home. I bring my iPod or kindle. Now f I have a cover, I can bring it with me instead. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ 6y

1. Nope!

2. I read several different genres

3. Books only, but Litsy makes me want to rethink that. ๐Ÿค”

SilversReviews Thanks for playing. ๐Ÿ˜ 6y

1. By genre. Non-fiction by subject, sometimes time period. I read a lot of history stuff.
2. Matilda by Roald Dahl, A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, and The People's History of the United States by Howard Zinn.
3. Not really, but I do feel them.
4. Sometimes, if it's an edition I really love, or if it's signed.

#ReadingResolutions #BooksAboutBooks Only home from our trip & looking at my Litsy books ....gifts from all you Littens. these books are about Litsy generosity & spirit. Books about books / books about Litsy . It‘s always good to go on holls & its always good to come home. In my home , these books are a reminder that you are all near โค๏ธ( feeling sentimental, tomorrow is , after all , another day ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿป๐Ÿคž๐Ÿป๐Ÿคž๐Ÿป....... See you on the other side ๐Ÿ’•

Mdargusch I wish I‘d kept all my Litsy gifted books separate like that! I might need to reorganize. ๐Ÿค” 6y

A quick, short book about books: poetry style. An excellent read for kids and adults alike.
