Bookwormjillk Talk to me Goose. I got 61%. I love Jaws and Apollo 13 and I had no idea there were so many Jurassic Park movies. Maybe that will be my summer project. 4d

dabbe @Bookwormjillk Now THAT's a project I can wrap my head around! Excellent score! 👏🏻👏🏻Thanks for playing and sharing. 🍿♥️🍿 4d

Librarybelle 45 for me, and I‘m shocked by that! I like so many on the list including Sleepless in Seattle, Barbie, and Mamma Mia (because it‘s just fun to sing along to ABBA). 4d

RaeLovesToRead Noooo we haven't got to the books on 1001 that I HAVE read yet hahaha 😵😵‍💫 4d

RaeLovesToRead I've seen 40 of these, but there are a load on this list that I'm embarrassed to never have seen haha 4d

ImperfectCJ 82/100 for me, although I can't say that I liked most of them. Recently re-watched Poltergeist, and that was pretty fun. 4d

Read4life I‘d say I‘m sorry we didn‘t finish the 1001 list… but I‘m NOT! #sorrynotsorry 4d

dabbe @Librarybelle I hope in a good way! 🤩 Thanks for playing and sharing. ♥️🍿💛 4d

dabbe @RaeLovesToRead I think that ship has sailed for most of us! I did give you the link to the rest of the books! 😍 4d

dabbe @RaeLovesToRead Well, it's summer, so get watchin'! 😂 Thanks for playing and sharing. ♥️🍿💛 4d

dabbe @ImperfectCJ #woohooyou! 👏🏻👏🏻 Thanks for playing and sharing. ♥️🍿💛 4d

dabbe @Read4life #dittomydear! 🩵🎯🩵 4d

Avanders Wow I got 66% - definitely the highest I‘ve ever gotten on one of these! 4d

dabbe @Avanders #yahooyou! Thanks for playing and sharing. ♥️🍿💛 4d

kspenmoll 37% for me. 4d

dabbe @kspenmoll Yay you! Did you have a favorite? Thanks for playing and sharing. ♥️🍿💛 4d

Amor4Libros 54%!!! 🙌🏽 4d

shortsarahrose 52, but more impressive (for me) is the streak I had of always seeing the top movie of the year from 2001-2019 (only missed 2 in that period - the Transformers one and Despicable Me 2) 4d

shortsarahrose I did look at the rest of the 1001 books list. I had read 5 (well, 4.5 - Color Purple is in progress) from the remaining titles and probably have twice that on my TBR. 4d

dabbe @Amor4Libros #yahooyou! 👏🏻👏🏻 Thanks for playing and sharing. ♥️🍿💛 4d

dabbe @shortsarahrose How cool is that? #bravo 👏🏻👏🏻 Thanks for playing and sharing. ♥️🍿💛 4d

dabbe @shortsarahrose That list totally burned my butt! Glad you looked at it; I didn't have the heart. 😂 4d

willaful 52 for me. I love Toy Story 3, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Inside Out. 4d

AnnCrystal 👏🏼🥳🎬💝💝💝. 4d

dabbe @willaful #welldoneyou! Love your choices, too. Thanks for playing and sharing. ♥️🍿♥️ 4d

dabbe @AnnCrystal ♥️🍿💛 4d

CogsOfEncouragement 86 for me. 1-Marvel movies 2-Barbie 3-Transformers 4d

melissajayne 47 4d

dabbe @CogsOfEncouragement I think your score is the highest! #welldone 👏🏻👏🏻 Thanks for playing and sharing. ♥️🍿💛 3d

dabbe @melissajayne Thanks for playing and sharing. ♥️🍿💛 3d

TheLudicReader 73. I saw Grease about 20 times the summer it came out. 2h

dabbe @TheLudicReader I got a 73, too! #surprisesurprise And we've written about GREASE to each other. The summer of 1978 ... I think that was the only movie I saw and kept going to see. I word out my record soundtrack! 2h

The Fiery Cross | Diana Gabaldon

Inspired by my current reading. Outlander is one of my all time favorite shows and nobody has better chemistry than Jamie & Claire. 😍

Electricity
Inevitability
Inescapable

(really wanted to do a haiku with just one word for each line — this is the result!)

A Pizza Is Good But Pizzas Are Better: Blank Journal Notebook, 6 X 9 (Journals to Write In) | Dartan Creations

I wanted pizza
But got a salad instead
Should have had pizza

Sometimes I regret making the healthier decision.

DGRachel I have salad planned for dinner tonight. I would much rather have pizza. 😭😭 1mo

julieclair Been there. 🍕vs. 🥗. 🍕for the win. 1mo

dabbe You've captured a duality we all experience! And I'm in agreement with @JenlovesJT47 @CBee @lil1inblue @DGRachel @julieclair ... PIZZZA! Always. Salad for dessert. Maybe. 🤣🍕🐝🍕🤣 1mo

TheSpineView Pizza is my absolute favorite food! Yum! ❤️🍕 1mo

AnnCrystal Love a good pizza, but Good Choice! 🥗👏🏼🐝👍🏼🍕🐝💝.

Have you tried pizza salad? Top salad with a tomato-based salad dressing that you like, at least three different cold (shredded, not melted) cheeses, cooked pepperoni and/or sausage and/or chicken chunks (if you'd like), olives, fresh mushrooms, bell peppers... basically anything you usually like (and can have healthwise) on your pizza 🥗🍕😋💝. 1mo

bellabella Hahaha, so true!! Although tonight I had veggie pizza (thin crust with tomatoes, onions, mushrooms, banana peppers, bell peppers, and feta cheese. Delicious!) Maybe that's counted as healthy? 😂 1mo

Eggs I‘ve switched to cauliflower pizza crusts for a healthy choice. Food haikus are Fun❣️❣️ 1mo

BooksandCoffee4Me Giggled out loud when I read this. 😂💛💛💛💛 1mo

Kristy_K @JenlovesJT47 @CBee @lil1inblue @DGRachel @dabbe I made up for it tonight by getting the pizza. 😂😂 1mo

Kristy_K @AnnCrystal Oh I haven‘t. I‘ll need to try that! 1mo

Kristy_K @bellabella 😂😂 I‘ll count it as healthy! 1mo

Kristy_K @Eggs That‘s a good idea! I should try that. 1mo

dabbe @Kristy_K #bravo!!! 🙌🏻 1mo

Kristy_K @BooksandCoffee4Me 😂💛💛 1mo

AnnCrystal @Kristy_K 😎👍🏼🥗🍕💝. 1mo

Reggie You gotta let go sometimes. Nice haiku. 1mo

lil1inblue @jdiehr 😍 1mo

lil1inblue @CBee Thanks! 😊 💛 1mo

lil1inblue @BooksandCoffee4Me Thanks! It's one of my favorites that I've done! 💛 1mo

lil1inblue @TheSpineView 🙂 💛 🐝 💛 1mo

lil1inblue @JenlovesJT47 Thank you! 😍 1mo

lil1inblue @julieclair @dabbe Thank you! My inner perfectionist is disappointed because I made mis-typed the last line. It's supposed to be “A stained-glass vision.“ Oopsie! 😉 😍 1mo

dabbe @lil1inblue IMHO, I prefer “sunset.“ You've got lovely alliteration in that line, and it triggers the vision of the sunset with your image as well. #bravo! 🙌🏻 1mo

julieclair @lil1inblue Isn‘t it interesting how things we feel are less than perfect can still feel perfect to others? As a perfectionist myself, there‘s a lesson there… 1mo

AnnCrystal All absolutely beautifully captured. Don't know which one I favorite most... probably the “inspiring soap operas.“

👏🏼🐝👍🏼🤩🐝💝. 1mo

bellabella “Stained glass sunset“ just beautiful 😍 1mo

lil1inblue @dabbe I actually prefer sunset, as well, but I had used it in the second line already, and I love it there, too. Perhaps the repetition is okay, though? #thisiswhatIloveaboutpoetry 1mo

lil1inblue @julieclair It's a lesson I'm constantly trying to learn. 😂 1mo

lil1inblue @AnnCrystal Thanks! I kind of like that one myself, perhaps because I enjoy my bird watching so much. 1mo

lil1inblue @bellabella Thanks! 🤗 1mo

dabbe @lil1inblue YES! Repetition is a literary device and when used well (like yours is) it really packs a punch! 🤩 1mo

AnnCrystal @lil1inblue 😍🎶🐦💝💝💝. 1mo

Reggie Stained glass sunset!!!🖤🖤🖤 1mo

#ThreeListThursday #TLT @dabbe
We're on to list 3, all from the 1900s.
1. Survey link: https://www.listchallenges.com/1001-books-you-must-read-before-you-die-1900s
2. Share your score if you'd like.
3. Share your 3 favorites from the list or 3 that you might be interested in reading, or 3 you thought were horrible or a combo of whatever you'd like.
4. Tag if you want.
I'm tagging no one this time. ALL are welcome.

CogsOfEncouragement Ummmmm. I‘ve read 4 - Gatsby, Mrs. Dalloway, Ackroyd, and Room with a View. 1mo

dabbe @CogsOfEncouragement I've never read DALLOWAY; did you like it? #TFPAS (Thanks for playing and sharing). 😊 1mo

CogsOfEncouragement I read it in 2017, gave it 3⭐️ and wrote this review: This was an incredibly slow read for me. A bit because of an event I helped to put on (kinda funny if you know what the book is about) but also because of the way Woolf wrote it. ⬇️ 1mo

See All 41 Comments

CogsOfEncouragement I take no offense to the accolades it has earned, and I see why others enjoy it. I compare it to Beloved by Toni Morrison which I read a few months ago. Though I like both stories, I do not much enjoy reading this style. At the same time, I am glad I read both award winning books. 1mo

MonicaLoves2Read I only got 2. The Great Gastby I read it in Hugh School. The Murder of Roger Akyrod I read last year. 1mo

dabbe @CogsOfEncouragement Thanks for that input. I have always been scared to read her for the whole stream-of-consciousness thing, but maybe I'll give her a try. (edited) 1mo

dabbe @MonicaLoves2Read ROGER ACKROYD was one of the biggest surprise reads I have ever had! #TFPAS (Thanks for playing and sharing). 💚🩵💚 1mo

Roary47 I got 5… I‘ve never even heard of most of them. 😅 Ethan Frome was a favorite in high school, Great Gatsby, the jungle, The Sun also rises, and Call of the Wild. (edited) 1mo

willaful 9 for me... I've never even HEARD of half of these book! 1mo

thebacklistbook Wow... I scored 1. 1mo

AnnCrystal I'm not even going to whisper my results, I'm just going to hide 🤐🤭😂. 1mo

Bookwormjillk 5 for me. Gatsby and Ethan Frome are favorites. Many of the others I‘ve never heard of. 1mo

Librarybelle Ouch! I got 6. 1mo

RaeLovesToRead I got 4..... FOUR????!!!!!! 1mo

RaeLovesToRead I've not even heard of most of these. And I have the 1001 books book! 1mo

Daisey 26 this week. I do find it interesting how even as the scores vary, most of us have seemed to follow similar trends in fewer on each of the 3 so far. Surely we‘ll go back up again on the next. 1mo

JenlovesJT47 I got 4! 😭 1mo

dabbe @Roary47 I'm with ya on the what the heck are these? 🤣 #TFPAS (Thanks for playing and sharing) 😊 1mo

dabbe @thebacklistbook You're in good company! 😍 #TFPAS (Thanks for playing and sharing) 😊 1mo

dabbe @AnnCrystal No hiding allowed! Most of the ones on this list I haven't even heard of, nor would I add them to my TBR! 🤣 #TFPAS (Thanks for playing and sharing) 😊 1mo

dabbe @Bookwormjillk 🎯🩵🎯 Love your choices, too. #TFPAS (Thanks for playing and sharing) 😊 1mo

dabbe @Librarybelle Seriously, I wouldn't even put most of these on my TBR! I'm like 😳! #TFPAS (Thanks for playing and sharing) 😊 1mo

dabbe @RaeLovesToRead You're right in there with the rest of us! 🤣 #TFPAS (Thanks for playing and sharing) 😊 1mo

dabbe @RaeLovesToRead Now that's 🤣! Which edition? The one I'm using is the revised 2018, which (I think) includes a heckuva lot more world lit. 1mo

dabbe @Daisey You da winner so far! #bravo 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 #TFPAS (Thanks for playing and sharing) 😊 1mo

dabbe @JenlovesJT47 We're right there with you! Surely next week has to be better! 🤩 #TFPAS (Thanks for playing and sharing) 😊 1mo
