Latest audible purchase #audible

An interesting premise though jury is still out for me on this title overall.... Good to challenge your own assumptions sometimes though!
#kindle

I've been reading all of 2019 but it's been boring, boring business and textbooks...... Starting to read for fun again now and kicking off with this which was a pressie from the fab @TrishB

Somehow managed to have about 5 books part done... None of them suiting 10 minute snatches of reading in my crazy busy January 🙄😛
So this has been perfect for the last couple of days... I love Dawn French.... This is the closest you can get to a natter with her over a cuppa and a nice gentle read. Despite the Sunday Mail quote on the cover it's not at all self help-y if that's not your thing ❤️❤️

Thank you so much for the postcard @TrishB. Missing you and my Litsy family.... Hardly read a page since Boxing Day arghgh.... The work rush shall hopefully ease off soon! 😘😘😘

Sorry I've hardly been on and hardly read a thing in last two weeks... Back soon xx

Not a fan of these tie in covers... But only £4 for a new copy.... Do UK Littens know when it's on BBC One... Hardly ever watch telly but would give this a look if it hasn't started already (or iPlayer I suppose lol)

Aaaaaand relax 😘😘🎄🎅

Thankyou dear friend for your thoughtfulness and generosity.... Much love to all of you ❤️❤️🎅🎄💕💕💕

For £0.99 it would be rude not to....

It was nearly a so so as I think it dragged a bit in the middle but the beginning and the end sections were so, well, powerful it has to be a Pick with some qualifications.
Difficult to read in places - Alderman doesn't sugar coat the brutality and casual violence but never voyeuristic; it is the casualness of the violence and abuse of power, the glee in hurting others that is difficult to bear but so well done.

Afternoon plans #currentlyreading and these ginger thin biccies from IKEA are yummy (also super cute heart shaped)

Sorry I've been Awol but I've been really sick for nearly 10 days.... Bleughhhhh. One of the joys of my second business.... 50+ plus folk in a queue all coughing sickness yuk germs and phlegm particles in your face 😷😱😰
Normal posting soon I hope.... Also hoping to get outside to Post Office tomorrow @TrishB 😉😘

Will try for #25in5 though I may not make it I'm sure I'll have fun trying

Amazon Christmas shopping for other people and... Oops... Keep adding a wee extra for me to all the parcels... I should feel guilty but I work hard, right? #mountTBR #cantstopwontstop

Back to this one to finish after a reading break.... I've enjoyed it so far. #eveningplans

What a beautiful little book, funny, sad, happy, silly then serious and moving.... Loved it ❤️📓❤️

Any book in the Abhorsen series, especially the middle of the original trilogy Lirael.... Or a bit of Potter 😉
#sundayfunday @sebrittain

Absolutely loving this #borrowed book - finishing today.
Any others in particular by Matt Haig recommended?? (already read How To Stop Time) ☺️

Thank you so much for your Christmas card and gifts @TrishB.... Oooh excited for Crimbles 😁🎄😁🎁🎄
Yours should reach you very soon... Plus that package I've been meaning to send you for ages lol #hopeless 😘😘😘

You'd end up #frozen if you were exposed to Outer Space right? Plus I really need to make time for this short story collection.
#winterwonderland @TrishB @Cinfhen

@howjessreads

Other reads temporarily suspended so I can zip through this #borrowed book #currentlyreading

Freebie second hand.... The premise looks interesting but no Litsy reviews..... UK author (Liverpool)....any opinions trusty Littens??

Still behind on #winterwonderland..... These are the only books I have to hand featuring an #angel
Enjoyable YA.... Reminds me I wanted to finish the series.....
@TrishB @Cinfhen

Fun test! In Litsy terms I think I'm a pretty slow reader and I'm fine with that. Turns out that I'm average according to this test......wonder what number you'd get @TrishB 😉

A day late again for #winterwonderland but The Wintersmith makes an appearance as a man made of snow.... So many snowman decorations picked up by my youngest boy... They are all over the house #frostythesnowman ⛄❄️⛄
@TrishB @Cinfhen

Christmas plans inspired by a post a few days ago but can't remember who, sorry..... Picked up this lovely bookish 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle.... Must be 35 years since I did a proper puzzle..... Just need to work out how/where with 3 cats in the house to paw at the pieces lol

Picked these up on Kindle as, you know, don't want to risk having nothing to read....Slightly ashamed to admit that with a Masters in English Lit I've yet to read these classics.....ah well there's still time before I die ha ha 😰😱🙃
#cantstopwontstop #mountTBR

#winterkills #winterwonderland Confession time...I own two copies of this... The others in paperback, the audible books and the first season on DVD..... I have watched the first half hour then my zombie phobia kicked in..... Horrible thing to say but I can't bring myself to invest in a series that might never be concluded 🙊🙊
@TrishB @Cinfhen

#December #winterwonderland
Catching up!.... I picked this up last Dec to read with kids..... It arrived in January 😂🙄 so doing it this month. What a cheesy naff cover lol
@TrishB @Cinfhen

1. I watched Gremlins for the first time in 20 years this week and it had lost its magic (except for the score) 😭😭
2. Either or both if I feel extra stinky 😰
3. Jean Mackie (my gran's name)
4. Work, house reno, chores, hopefully some electrical work done on stove, paperwork, Strictly on telly, reading..... SLEEP!!!
5. Will do

Went in a local bargain shop for an Elf on the Shelf and these were £1.99 each. Never read any Picoult before 🙃😜🙄 #cantstopwontstop #mountTBR

Really enjoying this book...Dinnertime read! Cooking a chicken became a full on roast dinner tonight yum

#bookmail..... Wasn't expecting an Arc for the price I paid 😒.. Hate typos lol but still looking forward to this one #mountTBR

#haul from a church hall in exchange for some of my old reads.... Not sure if it will be any good but love a Templar yarn....

Joined me in the bedroom still wearing her new coat... Silly but cosy girlie #bigorangedog #dogsoflitsy #readingbuddy

Pizza power!.... Using a wrap as a base and reduced fat cheese for a slightly healthier version 😋🍕 #currentlyreading

Awww @TrishB what a lovely surprise thankyou 😘😘 I very nearly bought the autocorrect book on kindle a few days ago went with another funny instead 😁👍..... The little package in the pic is something I've been meaning to take to the PO for you for weeks..... There's a postcard inside says something like I hope you had a good birthday yesterday (or something like that.... Memory fails me lol). Will post v soon xxx

I already own the unread book but the sample sounds great.... Love the soothing tones of Jenny Agutter. #audible #purchased #blameitonLitsy #£1.99

Evening plans.... Starting this after bailing on Big Fish (second attempt so obviously just not for me). Hope I enjoy this one better #currentlyreading #currentread

Next up..... Don't mind a movie cover when it's Tim Burton 😉 #currentlyreading

Up next.... Should take no time at all ⌚👈👍

Finishing up a few reads with the Vizzie keeping my legs warm.
I enjoyed this one.... Probably particularly because my introduction to Holmes and Watson was through TV and film versions over the years. It is clear Horowitz loves the cannon and he does a good job. I expect some purists who adore the Conan Doyle works might have some issues as it is clearly a modern writer and novel format.
