I‘ve just started watching this TV show-I know, I‘m late to it. My husband asked me to please catch up and watch the final season with him and then he decided he wanted to rewatch it while I watched for the first time. So, two episodes in: it was KILLING me not to reread the book. And OMG I CANNOT BELIEVE how many details I am just now noticing this second time around!!! I missed so much!! This is why I love rereading. #readwhatyouloveproject2019

Ingerella I'm currently in the middle of my biggest binge watch ever. 33 down, 44 episodes to go, 11.5 days left!! It's a rewatch for me but I'm loving it! I would love to reread book 1 too, but no time! 5y
tracey38 I al also one who hasn't seen this show yet. But thinking of starting it soon. 5y

Serious climb up Spring Mt TBR! 9 Books including whopping big Middlemarch. Juliet Stevenson Audiobook was perfection. 3 more #readwhatyouloveproject2019 with Chronicles of St Mary's. Read my first Neil Gaiman for #booksandbrewsclub and promptly read another. Sprinkle in a few friend's recommendations and kept up with Readalongs. 🧗‍♂️📚🤓

Wow. 2 Bails in 2 Days. I used to never Bail. Listened to several chapters of Midnight just couldn't get in to it. Skipped to last chapter. Meh. Identicals is for a Book Club that I sometimes attend. 2 Chapters and I'm out. Thinking I'll skip this month. Can't do books about family drama and ESPECIALLY women who continually make stupid decisions. 🤦‍♀️

Gezemice My book club picked this as well. I looked at the description, read the first paragraph and I decided not to waste my time. Listening to the discussion later, it was the right decision. 5y

Excellent start on my 2019 Goodreads Challenge of 20/150 Books! Enjoying my ReReads. Soulless was my bookclub choice; but I won't mind reading for a 3rd time when readalong gets to it. ReReading Shadowhunters in Chronological Order while waiting for Red Scrolls of Magic. Can you tell I'm big on reading in order? 😉

10th Anniversary Edition is Beautiful! Lots of gorgeous art inside. Delightful kickoff to my reread in the lead up to April release of Red Scrolls of Magic. This is where I met one of my All Time Favorite Characters - Magnus Bane. How can you not love a magical Warlock who loves glitter and throws a birthday party for his cat Chairman Meow. 😻

Can‘t think of anything better than starting 2019 with a book I love tremendously, something meaningful to me. I love this one for the way it makes me feel deeply when I read it. It moves me to tears, especially with this reread after a great loss in 2018. The idea that souls can follow one another across lifetimes is written here with such care, a unique story structure, and intelligent weave of detail. Just beautiful. #readwhatyouloveproject2019

Peddler410 I read this when it first came out—or right after it won the award. I remember really liking it but I couldn‘t book talk it. Maybe I‘ll reread it this year. 5y

I think I gave this a fair chance, as I am on page 96, but I am just not enjoying this book at all. I‘ve resolved to abandon more books in 2019, which may seem like a strange resolution, but I need to stop wasting time on things like this. Life‘s too short. I‘d have no problem turning off a movie I wasn‘t enjoying. I need to better extend that to closing the book.

Bookishlie I know what you mean. I give every book 50 to 100 pages and then I bail if I'm not feeling it. 5y
TiredLibrarian Not a strange resolution at all. I find it very freeing. Too many good books out there to waste time with the bad, or those that just aren't right for you right now. 👍🏻💜 5y

abookishbutterfly @Crinoline_Laphroaig Awesome! I‘m in. Thanks! 5y
intothehallofbooks I always have a hard time bailing on a book and then I push to the end, and then I think to myself “why didn‘t I just stop reading that” - I hope I can be better about DNF in 2019!! 😳 5y
sdbruening Amen on life being too short to read books you don‘t enjoy! Totally understand and good for you. 5y

Festive New Year's Eve. Hauled myself to New Years Day Yoga Class, followed by Yogi Potluck, and a very long nap.

Cheshirecat913 Love that red dress!! 5y
LeahBergen Beautiful dress! 😍 5y
Crinoline_Laphroaig @Cheshirecat913 @LeahBergen so glad my red petticoat made it in time for the party. It was out of stock when I ordered dress, so I had to order it later. It just makes the outfit 5y
intothehallofbooks I agree about the red dress 💃🏻 it looks great! Also I loved the Mortal Instruments but I never went past the third book. It looks like there are a bazillion books in that world now. I should pick them back up again sometime and keep going, I enjoyed the first ones so much. 5y
