PaperbackCrush

Good morning, everyone! The moment you have all been waiting for!! Our official #BookSpin number is TWELVE (again 😂)! Our official #DoubleSpin number is TEN (...also again??) !! I have thoroughly enjoyed looking at everyone‘s lists & am really looking forward to seeing your reviews!!

My next post will be the #BookSpinBingo card. I am NOT tagging anyone on that post!! If you want to bingo, please just check my profile for the card. This saves ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) having to double tag everyone/keep track of who wants to bingo and who doesn‘t!!

I use the same tag list for the entire year, so if you would like to be added or removed, please just let me know. It takes me a while to tag everyone (there are a lot of you!!!) so I will add “FINISHED” to the last tag batch so you know whether or not I missed you. If I did, it was completely inadvertent. Sometimes I just spell someone‘s username wrong ⬇ 2w

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) As always, the link to the masterpost about how this challenge works can be found on my profile or here - https://thearomaofbooks.wordpress.com/bookspin-bookspinbingo-litsy-challenge/ - and the link to the Google Form where you can track your reads for the end-of-the-year-giveaway can be found here - https://forms.gle/2TgEz5N3NLq3GyV56

Thanks for playing, everyone!! Please know that I read EVERY comment on this post but don't always ⬇
2w

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) have time to reply to them all!! Thank you all so much for your enthusiasm and for making this challenge SO much fun!!

I'm going to post the Bingo board, and then come back and start the tag list on this post. Happy reading!!!

A Tailor-Made Bride | Karen Witemeyer

I like this book, but did the author have to include a “let‘s help you lose weight to be pretty” make over? I expect it in my #PaperbackCrush books but not a book from 2011 (or am I naive?

TheBookHippie I read a new book last year with it stated 😫 12mo

Sace @TheBookHippie dang it! 12mo

BookSpinBingo | Untitled

I get so excited about the #BookSpin numbers! I picked one of the oldest books on my kindle and for the #PaperbackCrush option I went with the Sweet Dreams series (which oddly enough I never read as a tween).

Thanks for the fun @TheAromaofBooks !

TheAromaofBooks Yay!!! Enjoy!! 12mo

Superflirt | Helen Cavanaugh

@keys_on_fire Exhibit A.

Maybe not the same guy, but close!

(Looks like I might but hopping aboard the #paperbackcrush train soon. I have a soft spot for these books, even if they are dreck 😆)

keys_on_fire Maybe!! I‘m sure they reused models A LOT! 😂 14mo

keys_on_fire Have you read PaperBack Crush? I‘ve read through so many that were mentioned but still have quite a few to go!

Paperback Crush: The Totally Radical History of '80s and '90s Teen Fiction

(edited) 14mo

Sace @keys_on_fire I have! It was a while ago though and lately I‘ve been considering going back and rereading it. These books are comfort reads for me. (edited) 14mo

Sace @keys_on_fire and if you haven‘t read it yet I recommend

Dreams can come true

14mo

Sace @keys_on_fire oh and

I'm Christy

14mo

keys_on_fire I created a shelf on Goodreads for all the books (plus a few from series that I liked that I wanted to read all). If you ever want to try to read as many as possible like I am, I‘d be happy to become friends there too…assuming you use it as well. 14mo

keys_on_fire Maybe someday I‘ll get ambitious and creat a storygraph challenge! 14mo

Sace @keys_on_fire I‘m only on The StoryGraph and here but my summer vacation is starting soon and I‘d gladly join you in reading and sharing! 14mo

Funny Girl Like Me | Jan O'Donnell

pick

I will probably keep this book just because Lori Loughlin is on the cover! 🤣 #FullHouse

Another #paperbackcrush selection, and this one was pretty fun. It‘s so interesting to read these 80‘s YA that I never read. They seem harder to read than things from the time that I did, even though I know SVH and BSC have those moments too. Amazing what nostalgia adds to a read!

Sing about Us | Winifred Madison

pan

Another #paperbackcrush book and my #bookspin for April. I did not like this one. It was cringy all the way through. I remember being at odds with friends over boys, but this guy was a jerk! The only reason I finished it was because it was so short.

@TheAromaofBooks

Sace That dude looks like the guy on the cover of Superflirt too! 14mo

TheAromaofBooks At least it's off the list!! 14mo

If This Is Love, I'll Take Spaghetti | Ellen Conford

pick

Read this as part of the readathon a couple of weeks ago. I‘d call this a soft pick. It‘s a collection of short stories about love and life in high school. The book benefits from the stories being short, as the book on the whole hasn‘t aged well. Mostly fun, a little squirmy 😂
#paperbackcrush

MaureenMc I owned this book as a tween. 😄 14mo

BarbaraJean Hahaha—I remember reading Ellen Conford as a tween/teen! Also: I have that same bookmark 😁🌮 14mo

keys_on_fire @barbarajean Haha awesome! 🌮 14mo

April's Rainbow | Cathryn Hein

My #bookspin list and #bookspinbingo board are ready! Although, my eggs don‘t look very egg-like 🤣

Picked a lot of quick reads since #deweys24hour readathon is happening at the end of the month, and hopefully that will help me further along with my reread of SVH for my #paperbackcrush challenge. Looking forward to a fun month!

@TheAromaofBooks - sorry to blow you up with all these posts! 😂

TheAromaofBooks Yay!!!! I love your layout! Are you planning to decorate the eggs as you read them?? 3y

keys_on_fire Thank you! Yes, I‘m gonna to put the numbers in the corner of the boxes and decorate the eggs as I read them. It‘s kinda like a bingo and an ester egg hunt all at the same time! 3y
