pickSci-fi time travel pandemic book? If anyone can pull it off it‘s Mandel. Love her. #bigjunereadathon @Clwojick
Clwojick Oooh. Sounds interesting. I‘m not normally one for sci-fi, but this one sounds intriguing. 2d

pickWell written and a quick read. 12 year old Edward is the sole survivor of a plane crash. The book weaves two story lines together; one detailing the moments leading up to the accident, the other about Edward‘s journey as a survivor. #bigjuneteadathon book 5/10 @Clwojick
pickLove this beautifully written coming of age story. And I learned a lot about the history of South Africa during WW2. #bigjunereadathon @Clwojick
Better late than never! #bigjunereadathon goals:
-Read 10 books
-At least 2 books from my ever mounting TBR shelf (and by shelf I mean bookcases)
-Finish I Know This much is True #chunksterchallenge2022 @Amiable
Lofty goals, but who doesn‘t love a challenge?! @Clwojick
pickLove is not strong enough for how I feel about this book. Beautifully written, artful, and quietly heart wrenching. A story about love, relationships, and loss that‘s left me with a hole in my heart and a #bookhangover like I haven‘t had in a long time. 💛
pickDefinitely not what I was expecting after reading Guncle, but I was pleasantly surprised. I cheered, I sobbed, and I held my aging pup a little tighter and a little longer.
I don‘t know why it took me so long to pick this book up, maybe the size? But I‘m absolutely loving it so far. Thanks for the recommendation @Alfoster @Amiable and I think this qualifies for the #chunksterchallenge2022
LOOKING FOR RECOMMENDATIONS. It‘s literally been years since I‘ve posted anything, but I‘m home sick and looking for something to binge read. Here are some in my TBR, but I also have a kindle and an Overdrive account so open to any and all suggestions.
#BFCr4 check in. I‘m finally starting to have some relief from back pain. Revising my goals accordingly. I‘d like to try and get 60,000 steps this week. Try one yoga class. And make time to go to the chiropractor. Stepping up my reading goal to 3 books this week. And getting back on track with calorie intake. Side note, this book is so well done and trauma informed. Everyone should read it.
Still struggling with back injury, which is miserable and frustrating. But counting short walks with the pup as exercise until I‘m feeling better.
#BFCr4 Not a great week, due to back injury. I pulled a muscle, so I didn‘t meet my step/exercise goals, but on the bright side, it did give me more time to read. Hopefully getting back on track this week. @MatchlessMarie @wanderinglynn @erinreads @AsYouWish @Bookwormjillk
#BFCr4 #audiowalk with my pup. No one can make you fall in love with a character like Backman, or break your heart like Backman. At least I‘m getting my steps in while I sob. 😭💪💔 @wanderinglynn @MatchlessMarie @erinreads @Bookwormjillk @AsYouWish How‘d everyone do today?
#BFCr4 @MatchlessMarie @AsYouWish @Bookwormjillk @erinreads guess who was up and at ‘em for 5:00am boot camp? Happy Monday! Go team!
@wanderinglynn thanks for including me so last minute! Just the motivation I needed to get back on track! ❤️💪
Everything‘s better in the sunshine. ❤️☀️
“Mommy, when are you coming back?”
Yup, that pretty much sums it up!
“Where are you going? What are you doing? What are you eating? Can I have some? Can I sleep in your bed? Can you get me a snack? I‘m hungry. I‘m thirsty.” #momlife @TheReadingMermaid

Only a quick 20 minute walk this morning. Still too much ice and snow for this little guy. I had to carry him part of the way home because his little paws were cold. 🥶🐶 I‘ll try to hit the gym this afternoon to get my steps in!
#litsywalkers @kaye
Snow and freezing rain all day here, but I made it to the gym for my #audiowalk and did some #audiocooking too. Really enjoying this one so far. #litsywalkers @kaye
My gentleman caller and one of my most favorite people has finally joined Litsy. Let‘s show @mjester some Litsy love! ❤️❤️❤️
Perfect way to spend the snow day. I‘ve heard the second one is even better than the first. Does anyone have a favorite?
pickMy first 5 ⭐️ read of 2019. #blameitonlitsy never disappoints. I loved everything about this book. Unputdownable, amazing character development, strong female protagonist, and to say it‘s beautifully written is an understatement. This was my first Taylor Jenkins Reid, but now I am anxious to get my hands on anything she‘s ever written. Everyone read this book, it‘s too good to miss! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
So cold today they actually delayed school. -16 degrees this morning, but I made it to the gym. And because it‘s New England, where Mother Nature tries to fit in all the seasons in one week, it‘s supposed to be 40 degrees tomorrow. 🙄 #litsywalkers #audiowalk
pickI had never read John Boyne before Litsy, but now Im in love. He is a brilliant writer. I‘ve absolutely loved everything I‘ve read by him. A Ladder to the Sky was was a clever, masterful, work of art. ❤️🧡💛💚💙
Wayyyy to cold for walking outside today. Finishing up the tagged audiobook, and making homemade chicken soup for my poor sick boy (must be going around @Cinfhen hope your brood is on the mend) #litsywalkers @kaye
What to read next? Excited to jump in to my “sci-fi starter kit” sent to me by the fabulous @slightlyfoxed but I can‘t decide which one to read first? Suggestions for my next #winterstormreadathon pick?
pickBeautifully written and at times heart wrenching. Chloe Benjamin‘s book is centered on death, but in the process taps deep psychological questions about life. This is a book that‘ll be hard to stop thinking about long after you‘ve read the last page. Thanks for the recommendation @Mem_ugh
@TheReadingMermaid @monalyisha #newyearwhodis
When I think about walking alone I think of Lillian. #boulevardofbrokendreams #musicalnewyear @Cinfhen @vivastory
Hoping to finish this one up while it‘s still dark, then brave the snow and start shoveling. Hopefully I can get out of the driveway to make it to the gym, but at this point I can‘t even open the door. #winterstormreadathon #litsywalkers @BookBabe @MrBook @kaye
So busy reading I almost missed the #winterstormreadathon thanks @BookBabe and @MrBook for hosting. I love a good readathon. I‘ll be reading The Immortalists in bed, and listening to A Ladder to the Sky while I‘m out shoveling. Already close to 6 inches here. 🥶
Winter storm warning here in New England. ❄️ They‘re predicting 2+ feet starting this afternoon and going straight through until early Monday morning. Bring on the snowpocalypse, I‘ve got a new book (recommended by @Mem_ugh ), hot beverages, and an adorable puppy to keep me company.
#newyearwhodis #winteriscoming
30 minutes was all we could handle In this cold, but at least we got it in before the storm hits. High of 16 degrees Fahrenheit today. 🥶🥶🥶 #audiowalk with John Boyne #irishauthor #booked2019
#litsywalkers @kaye @4thhouseontheleft @Cinfhen @BarbaraTheBibliophage
pickFinished this gem tonight. After waiting for months for my library hold (started at 366 in queue) it was well worth the wait. Michelle Obama is brilliant, articulate, strong, and inspiring; and so is her book.
#booked2019 #relatedtoapodcast
@Cinfhen @4thhouseontheleft @BarbaraTheBibliophage
With a high of 11 degrees today, just a quick #audiowalk. Too cold to take off my gloves even for pictures. Started listening to this book tonight, been looking forward to it for months!
#litsywalkers @kaye
In my life as a mom of three bada$$ wrestlers, #myshot is a 2 point take down. My son, in his senior year, and final tournament, was not going to miss his shot. He continued to wrestle with a shoulder injury (that we soon after learned was a fractured scapula) to earn points for his team, and not go down without a fight. And by some miracle, he won!
@Cinfhen @vivastory #musicalnewyear
pickA book that never would have been on my radar if it weren‘t for the recommendation of the lovely @Mem_ugh and @monalyisha for hosting #newyearwhodis I am so glad I read it, and ironically there was a reference in the book to the song by Switched Up, by Nick Grant so now I also get where the #newyearwhodis hashtag came from. Lol, I must be getting old. #notashipasiusedtobe
Lunchtime #audiowalk #litsywalkers
@kaye
This book is so good! Loved her before, but love her even more now.
My #audiowalk tonight was with my favorite walking buddy, Max. He was a champ despite the cold. #litsywalkers #dogsoflitsy
@kaye
Frigid audio walk on my lunch break. It was -6 when I got to work this morning. Thanks @kaye for the inspiration and motivation. #litsywalkers #audiowalk #newenglandweather
Spent the day at my son‘s wrestling tournament. Audio walked the halls of the school all day in between matches. @kaye #litsywalkers
It‘s four degrees out here. There is no other reasonable place to be, than in bed, with hot tea, and a good book. Max says it‘s too cold to read, he‘s hibernating. #dogsoflitsy
