JolabokaflodSwap

I got this in my #jolabokaflodswap a few weeks ago and instantly started to read it! While a bit slow in places for my taste, I did really enjoy the mystery and the characters. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

And the Band Played On: Politics, People, and the AIDS Epidemic, 20th-Anniversary Edition | Randy Shilts

Got some #audiojournaling done today,finally! I only just got my new journals, auspost is really doing a great job lately.Not.😠At least they‘re here now.Do you like my new journal? Special edition with my name on the cover. I love it!Totally worth the extra money. I‘ve been meaning to read the tagged book for years, finally getting to it for the 40th anniversary of the start of the AIDS epidemic.So infuriating and so so sad🏳️‍🌈🫶 #JumpStart2023

julesG 😍😍😍 Love all the supplies. (Post is slow here, too. Seems they went into hibernation on Boxing Day.) 5mo

Larkken Your supplies are inspirational! I‘m using the same ones from last couple years until they run out or I can find a place for new ones 😂🤩 5mo

Clwojick Ahhhh! I love all the stationary! 😍 I‘ve considered getting my 1817s titled as well, but I haven‘t pulled the trigger yet. After seeing yours, I might have to though! 💖 5mo

Lizpixie @julesG thank you! I‘m still waiting on a #jolabokaflodswap & my #aussiesecretsanta packages! 5mo

Lizpixie @Larkken I‘m glad to inspirate. I have a huge tub full of more art supplies as well, when I did the #greatlibrarycleanof2022 my daughter went to Kmart & bought me ten 50litre tubs and we spent two weeks sorting everything. Now I have them stacked & labeled in their own spot in my library.👍 (edited) 5mo

Lizpixie @Clwojick I‘m so happy with my journal! They brought the Bullet Journal special edition in black & this blush pink this year. Not much of a choice, I would‘ve preferred a yellow but🤷🏻‍♀️Where I bought it had the option of whatever you wanted on it in foil(gold,rose or silver)or colour. I think the rose on the blush pink turned out nice. I was gonna go with Lizpixie!🤓 5mo

Clwojick You should have!!!! 💖 5mo

Mr. Dickens and His Carol: A Novel of Christmas Past | Samantha Silva

I'm so sorry I forgot to post this when I got home @LeslieO ! I love it. The candy is gone, that sponge candy was so interesting! I really liked it. I'm thinking of saving the book for Christmas season this year but haven't decided yet. Thanks again!
Thanks for hosting #jolabokaflodswap @MaleficentBookDragon !

LeslieO You are so welcome! I loved the book and wouldn‘t blame you if you wait to read it next Christmas season. I hope interesting means you liked the sponge candy!😄 5mo

LeslieO BTW did you get the truffles I scattered in the box? I hope they didn‘t get mixed up with the packing stuff. (edited) 5mo

tdrosebud @LeslieO Yes I liked the sponge candy. It sort of reminded me of a malted milk ball but not quite. And all I received is what is pictured. There wasn't a truffle. 5mo

LeslieO Oh no I think I only put them in one of my swap boxes. 5mo

tdrosebud @LeslieO no biggie. I loved what I got! 5mo

The Vapors: A Southern Family, the New York Mob, and the Rise and Fall of Hot Springs, America's Forgotten Capital of Vice | David Hill

pick

I finally finished my #JolabokaflodSwap book from @Readergrrl and it was 10/10 interesting! If the print wasn‘t so tiny I think I would‘ve finished it sooner lol 😅 Definitely a pick for anyone who‘s intrigued by the mob, the culture of the 1940s-1960s and anyone else really.

The Marriage Portrait: A novel | Maggie O'Farrell

pick

Fantastic! Tense, compelling and O‘Farrell‘s writing is so rich and vibrant. I love how she constructed this one with the dual timelines that ultimately converge. Really clever and effective.

squirrelbrain I loved this too, in fact it‘s made my #top22of22 5mo

CBee Got this in my #jolabokaflodswap from @Amiable and cannot WAIT to read it!! 5mo

rmaclean4 Loved this book! 5mo

I‘m very very very late with posting this and I apologize (after holiday stress with work) but thank you @The.Great.Catsby for my #jolabokaflodswap package. I‘ve never had Gatsby chocolate before so I‘m looking forward to trying it!

The.Great.Catsby I've never had it either, but it just looked so alluring. Let me know if you like it! I also hope you enjoy the book 😊 5mo
