July prompt is ready to go. Just wanted to pass on above information.
I will give about a month‘s notice so we have time to research and source books. If you‘re not a librarian it may be time to make friends with one. Lol. I googled prompts too and found book lists for all. Yay. As soon as you know what you‘ll read post so we can all see using #BookedInTime and tag me. Thank you.
repost for @Librarybelle:
I forgot to post this on the 1st!
June‘s #LiteraryCrew #BuddyRead is the tagged book. We‘ll read at our own pace during the month, and I‘ll post periodic checkins. Discussion on the 30th.
If you would also like to be tagged in this month‘s post, comment below! All are welcome!

Also tell me your favorite eras for HF as I‘m putting prompts together.

In May we had a young Han Solo in a legend that predates the Solo movie and is quite different. I think I may prefer the newer history with Quira. What did y'all think or prefer?
This month is The Hutt Gambitt which should be entertaining. Love a big narcissistic space slug.

Happy June! Time to pull out our Ursula K Le Guin books for #AuthorAMonth. What are you planning to read?
#AuthorAMonth is a no-pressure, no-commitment Litsy challenge. The goal is to celebrate the works of a particular author each month. Authors were chosen through polls by Litsy participants. Read as many as you like, skip months when needed, it's entirely up to you!
repost for @Cbee It‘s June 1, y‘all! That means another #TBRtarot card! This might be cheating a little, but I‘m already in the midst of a book with a prologue (Adelaide), so I‘m using it for this prompt 😂 Can‘t wait to see what you guys choose! IF I missed anyone, if anyone wants to be added/removed from the tag list, let me know! Have fun 🤩
