LaraReads Yay! Glad to see your review on this! I‘ve been on the fence about it, but you may have tipped me over! 1y

Cinfhen This was surprisingly good @LaraReads @TrishB @squirrelbrain a bit more depth than I initially anticipated 😁#GoForIt 1y

BarbaraBB Very convincing while I am not a fan of the author…. 🤔 1y

Bklover OMG I FORGOT! Have to go open now!!! And by the way, I loved this book too! 1y

CarolynM I've just vommented elsewhere I might have to reconsider Taylor Jenkins Reid. You're giving me more reason to. @TrishB Have you read this one? Literary and quite short. I liked it.

Talking It Over

Megabooks Happy Valentine‘s Day! You and @TheKidUpstairs did a fantastic job! 1y

CarolynM Oh dear, just seen the terrible typo 😵‍💫 I meant commented, obviously. 1y

Cinfhen @CarolynM 😛😂😂😂😂I love that you chose to leave it!!!!! 1y

Cinfhen Thanks so much @Megabooks Hope you had a lovely day 🥰 1y

Megabooks I did! I got an Amazon gift card from family and Dad bought my current Apple Watch so I get a new one!! (He lost his. 😔 He let it die so we can‘t ping it.) Did M get you anything fun?? 1y

Cinfhen Ohhhhh, that‘s wonderful @Megabooks - M doesn‘t “believe” in Valentines Day 🙄he thinks it‘s a Hallmark marketing ploy ( whatever) he spoils me all the time. Im glad your parents acknowledged you xxx 1y

TrishB @CarolynM love the typo 😁 taken note of the title for future reference! 1y

Spinning | Tillie Walden

Here‘s my #bookspinbingo list for May. I decided to take a leaf out of @Cinfhen ‘s book (see what I did there?!) and go a bit #looseygoosey this month.

That‘s because I have a huge pile of library books, although many of the named books are also for #readingasia2021 so hopefully I‘ll be able to tick off a lot of countries this month.

Looking forward to the draw!

TheAromaofBooks

rockpools Yay! I love that you have a mound of real-live-library-books to get through. And your loosy-goosey graphic 🥰. Maybe I should break out my NEW library card tomorrow 😁 (one of my colleagues has had it in her desk drawer since October when I started the job, waiting for me to actually visit. Shame to waste it...) 3y

squirrelbrain Oh yes @rockpools - that library card will be burning a hole in your colleague‘s desk drawer if you don‘t hurry up and use it! 3y

Cinfhen #GoForIt @rockpools and im all in for #LooseyGooseyBookSpin 😁 3y

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!!! And I love seeing how everyone makes the #LooseyGooseyBookSpin work for them! 😂 3y

Pretty much keeping to my #LooseyGooseyBookSpinFormula @TheAromaofBooks
Nothing like a noncommittal list for a #MoodyReader like myself
Here‘s my #MayBookSpin
I only have 3 boxes left on my April board so I should start May with a clean slate

squirrelbrain I think I‘m going to go a bit #looseygoosey this month too Cindy. I have a big pile of library books to get through.... 3y

Cinfhen #LooseyGoosey is VERY liberating @squirrelbrain but still gives you enough direction xx 3y

TheAromaofBooks Yay!! I love your categories!! And your hashtag! 😂 3y

Cinfhen #LooseyGoosey needs an emoji @TheAromaofBooks xx 3y

peaKnit Lol though this was a picture of the day at first, I like your loosey goosey approach. The routine way has been intimidating or restricting for me. I may try to use your list ☺️ 3y

peaKnit May I use your hashtag if I get brave and try this? 3y

Cinfhen #GoForIt @peaknit it would be my pleasure 💕💕💕this approach really works for me... 3y

The Galaxy, and the Ground Within: A Novel | Becky Chambers

Kinda wondering how... Literal? Human? Earthbound? a narrative must be to qualify for the #antiracism prompt in #booked2021. Because from where I sit this book is deeply antiracist... . @Cinfhen @4thhouseontheleft @BarbaraTheBibliophage

Cinfhen If it works for you it works for us!!! #GoForIt ❣️ 3y

The Apple Cart: A Political Extravaganza | Bernard Shaw

Question for @Cinfhen @4thhouseontheleft @BarbaraTheBibliophage

Can I use this for #under150pages #booked2021 as the actual play finishes on page 86? My edition ends on page 159. The rest is just notes on it. I do have a back-up if not allowed.

alisiakae We‘re really flexible, if it‘s okay with you it‘s okay with me! 3y

Cinfhen Of course!!!! #GoForIt 💕🥳 3y

Weekly Forecast | Thomas Gibson Inc

My #weeklyforecast goals are to finish the books I have in progress (I should finish Miami Noir and The Spy and the Traitor today), read The Chemist, so I can leave feedback for my myTBR bibliologist before my next set of recommendations is processed, read my book for #LMPBC, and at least start The Cat I Never Named. It‘s going to be a busy workweek, so I‘m not sure I‘ll be able to do it all, but I‘m hopeful. 🥰

Cinfhen Very ambitious 🥰🙌🏻🎉#GoForIt 3y

The Sun Down Motel | Simone St. James

Hey. @Cinfhen @BarbaraTheBibliophage and @4thhouseontheleft 😁😁

If penguin/RH is selling this as Gothic horror, can I use it for the prompt? I hadn‘t thought about it because BOTM doesn‘t generally market books as horror, but it‘s not that different than The Haunting of Hill House, which I would consider Gothic horror. I also saw it referenced in author blurbs.

Thoughts?

As You Wish: Inconceivable Tales from the Making of The Princess Bride | Cary Elwes, Joe Layden

pick

This was a really enjoyable audio 🎧If you‘re participating in #Booked2020 it would be a fabulous choice for #Hollywood 🎬Thanks to @BarbaraTheBibliophage and @4thhouseontheleft for the recommendation 🥰 Even if you‘re not a super fan this book/audio was super fun ❤️👍🏽

TrishB Currently #99ponkindle shall I.....? 4y

Cinfhen The audio was AMAZING @TrishB I‘m sure the book is delightful but probably not as entertaining. Although 99p is pretty darn reasonable xx #GoForIt 4y

alisiakae I‘m glad you liked it! I loved all the stories about Andre, and the Miracle Max chapter had me in stitches. Of course, I could listen to Cary Elwes read tax returns and still be happy. 🤣 4y

See All 9 Comments

TrishB Done 👍🏻 don‘t have anything lined up for that prompt yet so it can be a potential! Somehow I then brought two other 99p offers. 4y

Cinfhen Still cheaper than a cup of coffee ☕️ 4y

Reviewsbylola I‘ve never seen the movie but Brian LOVED this book! 4y

Cinfhen What???? Really!!!?! You haven‘t seen the Princess Bride @Reviewsbylola 😱 YOU MUST remedy that!!!! 4y

Reviewsbylola I don‘t like movies. 🤣🤣 4y

BarbaraTheBibliophage I‘m so glad you enjoyed it! 👏🏻👏🏻🎥👸🏼👰🏼 4y

The Library at Mount Char | Scott Hawkins

#SoaringScores Not quite the #LibraryofCongress but a uniquely different and interesting library. This was a total #BlameItOnLitsy read 🤓It was whacky and weird and slightly wonderful. If you want to try something different and a little creepy too, #GoForIt and this is a new cover I haven‘t seen before...thanks Google 😜

KathyWheeler This is still the oddest book I‘ve ever read, but I liked it. 5y

Cinfhen True @KathyWheeler I couldn‘t properly explain the story if you offered me $100 👻 5y

TrishB Oh I love that cover, not seen before. Yes, bonkers book that I really enjoyed and don‘t really know why. 5y

This Is Where I Leave You | Tropper, Jonathan

#AnglophileApril I‘m not sure why this book popped into my head for #LetYouLoveMe but it‘s one of my FAVORITE books about family relationships and all the complicated ways we‘re connected. It‘s hilarious and easily one of the funniest books I‘ve ever read. I think book is wayyyyy better than movie, however movie was fun too!!

Reviewsbylola, emilyhaldi, Mdargusch

Cinfhen @ElishaLovesBooks if you haven‘t read this YOU MUST!!! It will definitely get you out of your reading slump xx #promise 😘 5y

mrp27 Agreed! Loved the book, movie was ok. 5y

Kalalalatja Really enjoyed the book! 🙌 haven‘t watched the movie 5y

Cinfhen I‘m soooo glad you‘re gonna try it @JennyM it really is a FAV. I think I suggested it for @Kalalalatja and I‘m happy to know she liked it too!! You have fabulous taste in books @mrp27 💋💋 5y

Kalalalatja It was a Cindy-rec @JennyM and I read it on the beach last Summer, and it was a perfect beach read - fun, dramatic and entertaining all the way through 👌 5y

LeahBergen Such a funny read! 😆😆 5y

TrishB So funny @JennyM I read after a Cindy recommendation too! 5y

Cinfhen Did u like it @TrishB ??? I don‘t remember 😜 5y

JennyM @TrishB @Kalalalatja @Cinfhen you‘re all to blame for my ginormous TBR (but I love you for it 😘) 5y

TrishB @Cinfhen I loved it - very funny, especially when you have one of these families! 5y

JackOBotts My book club enjoyed this book...the movie adaptation was decent, too. Lots of funny, and touching, moments. 5y

TheRomantiCate I loved the movie!! I thought it was cast really well 🤩 5y

emilyhaldi Good to know!! I wasn‘t a huge fan of the movie so it‘s kept me away from the book... but it‘ll give it a try! 5y

Reviewsbylola I know I owned this one at some point but not sure if I still do. 🤔 5y

Cinfhen It‘s one of the few books that literally had me snorting from laughter @Reviewsbylola @emilyhaldi @LeahBergen @JackOBotts @TheRomantiCate My family is large, with lots of BIG personalities and lots of drama and BS but we truly love each other so this book was so relatable. Although Thank God my mom & dad are both alive and well. 🙏🏻 5y

Mdargusch Ha! I already have this stacked. 5y

mrp27 Ironically I read this shortly after my father passed and I was going through a divorce at the same time so it all rang true. 5y

Megabooks @Zelma just recommended this to me! I think I‘m going to try it! 5y

Cinfhen Wow @mrp27 so this book must have felt a bit like art imitating life. But glad u found an outlet to release all the emotions you were going through. 5y

Cinfhen I think you‘ll enjoy this book @Megabooks #GoForIt 5y

Megabooks @Cinfhen just checked it out from the library. I have too many irons in the fire! (Not blow-pokes, 😬) I hate being a mood reader!! 5y

Cinfhen But you gotta love the library 🧡🙌🏻🎊 @Megabooks #InstantGratification (edited) 5y

Megabooks @Cinfhen Totally!! 5y

Centique Agreed! 5y
