This is totally a #blameitonlitsy - it just kept on appearing and appearing and appearing in my feed. So who am I to fight Reading Destiny? And yes, it was a good thing to listen to it. RD knows what I need.
Because I so, so needed that book. It's short and easy to read, and it has to be. It's written for people in very dark places and those often don't have the strength and energy to read big books. ⬇
A humorous expose of negging techniques that's a reasonably funny short listen, though probably more fun in its original tiktok form. To make for a longer audiobook it has a section of the author and his mom interviewing each other, which was heavy on “you know, like...“ and then an advice section which was pretty entertaining. I'm not a big fan of prank humor, so it wasn't really for me.

Starting off this summer week with a much anticipated read. The first two pages indicate that this is exactly what i need right now. #blameitonlitsy 💙🤍💚
pickOh.My.God. What an amazing book! Just the graphics alone are well worth the read but the story included is just perfect! Rene opens up a cafe to serve her yummy food and hires Slewfoot, a quiet goblin as a waiter. The problem now is she doesn't have any customers. Slewfoot finds her an ogre as a customer but his requests are too strange for Rene to make. What will Rene do?? Just a wonderful touching story for any age
pickTo save his family‘s business, Matti is ready to marry a woman he doesn‘t love. Hiring a swordsman to act as his best man for the wedding may create as many problems as it solves.
A really lovely historical romantasy. Matti‘s dedication to his family broke my heart, & I loved the development both in him & in the love story. It is very slow, & I think The Last Binding series is stronger narratively, but the tension is good & paced well.🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑
Here‘s my hopeful #14booksin14weeks ! Starting with Eleanore and Gabriële

pickAnother worthy #BlameItOnLitsy read! Thanks all 😊
The story really pulled me in from word one. I had a few eye roll moments, but over all I found it hard to put down.

pickMurdoch is for me an acquired taste and only to be enjoyed in measure. She‘s impossible to read quickly.
This is farce set in late sixties London, Bradley Pearson is a retired civil servant and unsuccessful novelist. Told from his POV, which is questionable, it‘s what happens when instead of writing his magnum opus, his life falls apart, with no little help from his own ineptitude, jealousy, and solipsism. Wickedly funny at times and quite dark.
It's a dreary day--perfect for reading!!! Another #BlameItOnLitsy read

The way of deconstructing what makes you unhappy about your cho- I mean, care works, is basically the same as the one I did when I was fighting my ED. But it never occurred to me that I needed to this with my relationship with care work as well.
Even though my therapist told me to go easy on it, to think that it‘s okay that not everything‘s done, it only ever worked a little bit. ⬇ 3d
Wow, so much learning. But it‘s already starting to do it‘s wonders. I‘m more relaxed, more accepting. And it feels wonderful.
