So Much I Want to Tell You: Letters to My Little Sister | Anna Akana

I‘ve already reviewed this book but it was the first thing I thought of for #youandmebutmostlyme #musicalnewyear prompt. I found this YouTube star to be self-absorbed, particularly for the sensitive topic the book was alleged to be responding to, namely her sister‘s suicide. Do yourself a favor and pass this one up.

Cinfhen, vivastory

Cinfhen Always appreciate an honest review 💚 5y

The Inimitable Jeeves | P. G. Wodehouse

I am behind my daily photo challenge @Cinfhen @vivastory ! #musicalnewyear
I‘m pretty sure the brilliant valet Jeeves thinks of Wooster “It‘s #youandmebutmostlyme who get you and your friends out of mishaps!”

Cinfhen #unpopularopinion not a fan of Jeeves but he‘s a perfect choice for the prompt!!! 5y

batsy Haha, brilliant! 5y

Cathythoughts 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 5y

vivastory Fantastic choice! 5y

BiblioLitten 😃 👏👏 Also, a very happy new year!!🥳💕 5y

The Song of Achilles | Madeline Miller

This prompt made me think of Achilles and Patroclus; bound together but also bound by Achilles' destiny. 💙

A Secret Sisterhood: The Hidden Friendships of Austen, Bronte, Eliot and Woolf | Emma Claire Sweeney, Emily Midorikawa

I‘m so sad I didn‘t get to read this in 2018...here‘s hoping 2019 is the year! This looks at female author friendships that have not often been told. These friendships help build literary careers. #YouAndMeButMostlyMe #MusicalNewYear

Cinfhen What a lovely little gem 💕 5y

vivastory Wasn't aware of this one. Sounds fascinating. Stacked! 5y

Strange the Dreamer | Laini Taylor

Our annual family getaway to a cabin and there‘s a winter storm moving in. Luckily we‘re here & have nowhere we have to be. This is definitely a case of #youandmebutmostlyme, as I don‘t plan on moving from this position all that much for the next 48 hours! Except to move to the hot tub, porch, or writing nook that seems made for me & my journal! 💕📖🖋 #musicalnewyear
Only 4 chapters in & I am enthralled with this book. Beautifully written! 😊

The Twins at St. Clare's | Enid Blyton

#YouAndMeButMostlyMe makes me think of twins, for some reason.

The O‘Sullivan twins look a bit like “The Shining girls in the hallway” here. 😆😆

LeahBergen @erzascarletbookgasm 😘😘 5y

LeahBergen @Tanisha_A Such comfort reads! 😍 5y

LeahBergen @merelybookish @Cinfhen I like the old covers so much more than the most recent ones for this series. I‘m officially a fogey. 😆 5y

vivastory Shining girls 😂😂 5y

LeahBergen @theshrinkette It‘s such a comfort read, isn‘t it? 5y

LeahBergen @vivastory Right?? 😆 5y

LeahBergen @Cinfhen SO true. 😆😆 5y

batsy Me too! I wanted some of the Anne Digby Trebizon books and it's great that they're now available, but the new cutesy covers ... I can't 😭 #fogeyalert 5y

Aimeesue The Shining Girls! This one looks cozy - look at those slippers! New genre? Cozy horror! 😂 5y

LeahBergen @batsy Yes! And the new hashtag! 😂😂 5y

LeahBergen @Aimeesue I find the notion of that genre oddly appealing. 😆 5y

Oswald's Tale: An American Mystery | Norman Mailer

I have a serious problem with self control. I can usually keep it under wraps but Christmas encourages me to go wild. 🤪 This is the first of many #bookhaul s you‘ll see from me in the coming week(s).

Part of my haul from Better World Books came today. I was bummed to see that two of the books were ex library copies and the stickers were impossible to remove on the spines. 😣

#musicalnewyear #youandmebutmostlyme

Cinfhen, vivastory

Leftcoastzen See that‘s why I can‘t bring myself to order from them ! Absolutely can‘t stand ex Library, and I want an accurate grading system on books I buy. 5y

Reviewsbylola Exactly! I usually have good luck with BWB over Thrift Books, but I think I‘m done ordering books from either of them unless its absolutely necessary. @Leftcoastzen (edited) 5y

Librarybelle I loved Evelina! Hope you enjoy it too. 5y

Cinfhen Can‘t wait to see the naughtiness xx #BringOnThoseBooks 5y

Cinfhen BTW: I got an ex library book from BWB which was removed from shelves for mold!!!!! The sticker was right on the book ~ Mold Damage and it was rated Good/ Like New!!! I was soooo pissed🤬 5y

vivastory @Cinfhen that's ridiculous! No excuse for that! 5y

Cinfhen I know!!! Granted I paid a total of $3 for book & shipping but still...... Not Nice @vivastory and now I give my business elsewhere 5y

LeahBergen @Cinfhen That‘s bloody disgusting! 😠😠 5y

LeahBergen @Reviewsbylola @Leftcoastzen I can‘t order from either of them anymore either. 😠 5y

Reviewsbylola That‘s crazy! @Cinfhen The two library ones I received were listed as “very good.” And I hate that they list one cover and then send another. 5y

Lord Edgware Dies: A Hercule Poirot Mystery | Agatha Christie

#MusicalNewYear #day2 #YouAndMeButMostlyMe This prompt captures Poirot & Hastings relationship perfectly! The dapper little Belgian is his own biggest fan, conceited to the point that his own author despised him, and blatantly admits to keeping Hastings around just so he can feel superior to his bumbling British personality.

Cinfhen, vivastory

vivastory Yes, this could definitely be the theme song of most crime solving duos, especially Poirot! What are your favorite Poirots? 5y

Lizpixie @vivastory I have a huge soft spot for Death On The Nile(my first Dame Agatha movie!) Hallowe‘en Party, Five Little Pigs & The Hollow. But my top Poirot is Taken At The Flood where he‘s up against one of Dame Agatha‘s most psychotic bad guys in David Hunt. Highly recommend all 5👍 5y

vivastory I haven't read any of those. Thanks for the recommendations. I will definitely be checking them out! 5y
