pickThis was such a fun read! The audiobook was so entertaining! Two quirky ladies brought together by circumstance embark on a wild adventure across the world in search of a mysterious beetle that may or may not exist. Ridiculous chaos ensues wherever they go. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Hello Litsy! It‘s been a long time! Here it is: paperback, HP, real books, borrow but I also love to buy!, read in bed, read alone, library because it‘s cheap but who doesn‘t love a bookstore💗, fiction is my weakness, always audio when it‘s available!!!, new books, old books all the books!!!
#thisorthat
Over the last 3 yrs I‘ve been recommending every audiobook I‘ve wanted to my library that they didn‘t own. Since the pandemic they decided to build up their collection. Because I must have been 1st to recommend most of them I was put 1st on hold for them. This is only from the first & 2nd waves. I‘m now still up at over 400 after much sorting, delaying & deleting ones I‘ve already listened to. I guess I have a lot more to go! 🤷♀️ Insanity! 🤪
@BookNAround I cannot thank you enough for this package. Not only is it one of the most fabulous, thoughtful & carefully curated boxes I‘ve ever received but it came when I really needed something good in my life. All the books are ones off my list! There‘s so much great Alice swag & the choc is even the one I like. Thank you again! I can‘t tell you how much this box truly means to me right now. (The Alice bookmark is my fav!) #whiterabbitswap
Quarantine got me down. My dad is pretty sick and it‘s kind of scary. Really hating being stuck in the house. Plague was not the dystopian fantasy I had always hoped for🙄 I would have preferred to have been a chosen one or even zombies. Ugh where‘s the rabbit hole I‘ve been waiting for my whole life! #wheresmyrabbithole #quarantinegotmedown #latefornomoredates
@KatieDid927 Surprise! I‘m your swap match! I don‘t have your email but I‘d like to send you more details on my situation. The short version is that I have all of your gifts at my house except 1 but I won‘t be able to mail them for a while due to the current crazy situation in the world. Sorry about that. Hope all is well with you. #lateforaveryimportantdate #whiterabbitswap #quarantinesucks
Picked me up some Lewis Carroll stuff today in Cold Spring, NY.
@Avanders Thank you so much for the thoughtful end to a great two years!!! What an awesome package! Total Alice overload! I love it! You have no idea how long I‘ve wanted the Alice pop up book & I cant wait to make some of the treats in the Literary Tea Party book. They sound delicious! I hope everyone enjoyed my book. I‘m excited to read your notes. (Sorry for the delay posting). #sfmbc #thereveal #endofanera
@GrilledCheeseSamurai thank you for the books, bookmarks and the candy. I‘m excited to try the coffee crisps! Also, I‘ve been wanting to read The Lies of Locke Lamora forever. Thanks again! Everything is great! #sfmbc #friendsfromfaraway #longdistanceliteraryfriends
Thank you @MommyOfTwo for the great book and the awesome Harry Potter bag as part of my #SFMBC package. The bag is excellent! It‘s actually just what I need. I love it 🥰 Perfect size! Also a friend of mine just read the book so I‘m excited for that too! Sorry for all the postal confusion. It‘s hectic here as always.
I love all that is black & gold so when I saw that these sneakers came out in the new Harry Potter Vans line I knew I needed them. Aren‘t they fabulous?
pickOmg this book was so insanely good. I thought I knew what was going on but I really had no idea and I totally love that! I listened to it in one day. Narrator did a great job too. Cults are crazy scary! 5 stars.
Cults, cults, cults! Everywhere! I‘m equally baffled and fascinated. I can‘t fathom how someone can be so easily sucked in & I‘m intrigued by the creepy inner workings. So many false prophets manipulating vulnerable people who are looking for something to believe in under the guise of community, love, religion & true sense of purpose. But one false move & the consequences can be as extreme as your life.
If anyone is interested in a totally unique and fun genderbent Wizard of Oz retelling then this is for you. I just finished Theodore Gale in Oz and really liked it. It‘s definitely not your typical Oz story but that‘s why I enjoyed it. (Actual book not found to be tagged) #kuroKonekoKamen #TheodoreGaleinOZ #WizardofOz #retellings
Well I missed the last two days of BookExpo because I got super sick but it sure is good to have friends at Penguin Random House. Look what I got in the mail today!
Yay! Look what I got! Thank you so much Martha and Owen 🐈! What a great book to have won in a giveaway! #whispernetwork
pickThank you so much @kamoorephoto for this book! It was amazing! I absolutely loved it!!!!
(I couldn‘t find the exact title on here for this book but you can see it in the pic.) This was a fun and engaging genderbent retelling of Alice in Wonderland. I really enjoyed listening to it. The characters had depth and there were some unique twists to it. #retellings #genderbender #kingofhearts #awonderlandstory #KurokonekoKamen
Thanks @Mowen036 for hosting a giveaway for this book. It looks great! Plus your assistant is adorable! If anyone else wants to get in on the action check out the details on the original post. The giveaway goes to May 11. #whisperifyoucan
When this📦arrived I went through many emotions! Yay a package! Omg how @Avanders spoils me! Didn‘t she just send me something? Hmm wait wtf month is it? It can‘t be time to send the next #sfmbc already😩What have I been doing w/all this time? Then I opened said package & was all yup I‘ve been wasting a lot of time & @Avanders is an efficient book🧚♀️ who spends her days adulting like a real human sending boxes on time to slackers like me!😝🥰🐿
This is all the other fantastic stuff @kamoorephoto got for me in my #sffs package. This girl totally gets me! First of all check out the Soap for Dog People! It‘s excellent! Then there is the Alice pouch & that amazingly adorable fox book sleeve & the chocolate that I love & all the pecans & bookmarks! Everything in this package is so on point. I absolutely loved it all! Thanks again Katherine!!! I hope you liked the one I sent to you!
Can I just say how lucky I am to have gotten such a fantastic swap partner for the #SciFiFantasySwap! These are just the books I got in my package! I could barely fit anything else in the pic. I‘m so excited to read Four Dead Queens & I‘ve had Fierce Fairytales on my TBR forever! @kamoorephoto you did a fabulous job! Thank you so much! What excellent selections!!! #sffs #litsyfriends
Check out this beautiful necklace @Chrissyreadit sent me! It‘s so cute! I can wear it with everything. It was such a wonderful surprise!
Litsy friends are the best friends! Thank you so much @Chrissyreadit for this wonderful surprise package of goodies! Everything is perfect! It‘s full of everything I love. I‘m excited for the shower steamer! I‘ve never tried one. (Close up of the wonderful necklace to come in the next post.) I can‘t believe you also sent me an Audible book too! You‘re the best!!!
Look at the wonderful cover on this book that @Avanders sent me for my birthday along with all this great tea, cute keychain & these adorable Alice stickers! Thank you so much girl!!!
@MommyOfTwo awesome package! Thank you for all the wonderful goodies. I love St Patrick‘s day too! I know you can‘t tell by his face but Dexter loves his new bandana! The Dewey cards are perfect b/c I already have the book & I need cards for the #jb group. Love the socks & is that an eye mask that can be heated or cooled. Did you make it? It‘s so cool 😎 I can‘t wait to try it! Chocolate gold coins not pictured. Dexter would‘ve nommed them! #sfmbc
Thank you so much @Soubhiville for this wonderful book! I love used books. I also love unicorns and postcards so you really nailed it! Perfect timing too! I‘m going to take this one with me on vacation I think! #jb
😁I want to thank everyone who has wished me happy birthday and all the wonderful members of the #jb group and other littens who have sent me cards and other wonderful goodies for not only my birthday but just because. Thank you so much for your warmth and kindness!!! I love you all! 💗 Litsy is a great place and I‘m so lucky to have connected with so many wonderful people here & made so many real friends.

I got a great surprise today from my wonderful friend @Mommamanzi 😻 Thank you so much for this box of awesome! So much Alice!!! So many tbr books!!! Bookmarks! 🦋 coloring book w/pencils! You don‘t know how long I‘ve been wanting to read that Sit Stay Slay book😂All the books are great! Thank you so much for being so sweet & for thinking of me!

Green tea w/almond! Drinking it now out of my new mug. Love the bead kit! I can‘t believe you not only got the SnowQueen FTT dvd but it has the best episodes on it!!! I totally loved Thumbalina! I will be starting the Navigator‘s Tale ASAP. Basset bookmark🔖💗
Everyone check out this swap done by @TheReadingMermaid it‘s all Alice, hats and tea!!! #madhatter #madhatterteapartyswap #litsyswaps #litsyhappenings #teaparty #tea #alice
I don‘t think it‘s too big a secret that my participation in the #jb group has been an epic fail so far. By no means is this intentional. I have a lot of anxiety & it tends to get in the way of many of my good intentions. I‘m weird & I‘m really sorry. But I just want to thank all of you for not giving up on me. Today I want to thank @Jas16 in particular because I received this. It was so thoughtful, kind & unexpected. I appreciate it so much.
Ugh I can‘t find this in the database & I‘m not one to go off app wherever that may be so Untitled it is. Anyway! This audiobook seemed like something I would like & I ended up loving it! Dystopian girl living on a garbage island in a dystopian world gets herself on a reality tv show to win herself a trip to Mars. It‘s freaking fantastic! Funny, fast paced, action packed w/ great characters & plot. Awesome audiobook! #RobDircks #YoureGoingToMars
Omg @ofbooksandme !!!! I keep getting more surprises every time I check the mail!!! It‘s like my birthday came a month early this year. You‘re the best! This tea looks amazing!!! I absolutely looove oolong tea!!! I‘m so excited to try it!!! ☕️
@ofbooksandme you have spoiled me!!! Thank you so much!!! I totally didn‘t expect to get even more wonderful goodies from you!!! The Alice bookmark is so pretty and unique! I‘ve had Lizard Radio on my TBR for a while so I‘m really psyched about it. Also the cover is fabulous!!! Snow White & the journal are perfect too! Everything is awesome! Thank you again!!! #sfmbc #litsylove #AliceAlways #SnowWhite
Thank you so much @ofbooksandme for such great book picks and the awesome socks!!! I really excited to read the books and the socks are adorable!!! my TBR just got a little longer! #sfmbc #bookmail #litsyfriends
Little Red Riding Hound says “ooooh nooooos is that the wolf 🐺 coming after me to try to steal my ducky! Grammy save me!!!” #heas #fairytaleretellings #dogsoflitsy #happilyeverafterswap
I‘m loving this book! Why can‘t I find a door?!?🚪🌳. I need some magic in my life. 🌳💫🍄🧜♀️🐛✨🧞♀️🔥🙊🌪🧛♂️💥🦔🔮🦄🌟🦸♀️♠️🌻✨🧙♀️🌟🦖🌈👸🍄🐉🧟♂️🐇🧚♀️🦉🥀
The Snow Queen is one of my favorite fairy tales especially when it‘s retold. Are there any other Littens who used to watch Fairy Tale Theater hosted by Shelly Duvall as a kid? I used to love that show & the Snow Queen was one of my favorite episodes. She‘s a total bad ass!!! Yassss Queen!!!! #heas #happilyeverafterswap #snowqueen #retellings #badassbitches
In March a friend & I will be going on a little vacation to Arizona. We‘ll be in Phoenix for a bit, then in Sedona for the most part. I was wondering which wonderful Littens live in Arizona & if any of you can recommend any cool places or things to do. I love kitschy weird stuff. Also if anyone is actually in those immediate areas maybe we could actually meet up. Let me know! #sedona #arizona #r&r #finallysomefun #firstrealvacationinforever
I just registered!!! Who else is going this year?!? #BEA19 (I know I only tagged a few people but my memory is shot and I instantly forgot everyone who was there last years screen names 😝 but you all should come!)
1. Read minds!!! 2. Done 3. So many. Started a meditation class. Doing a lot of habit changing. Hopefully I‘ll get past week two of February. That‘s when everyone abandons ship apparently. 4. Movie mostly but been meaning to start Riverdale. #friyayintro @howjessreads
1. Alice, Bluebeard, Russian Folklore, Snow Queen. 2. Splintered series, Monstrous, Lunar Chronicles, Snow & Rose, Lost Boy 3. The Navigator‘s Touch -Julia Ember, The House with Chicken Legs- Sophie Anderson. I pretty much love all fairytale retellings! The darker the better! I‘m going to be happy with whatever comes in my package! #happilyeverafterswap #heas @Chrissyreadit
Sooo I‘m listening to this hysterically funny what I thought was a children‘s book of fractured fairytales by Roald Dohl & all of a sudden the prince in Cinderella exclaims “Who‘s this dirty slut?” 🤭😳😂 Cover your ears young innocents!
This is the rest of the amazing goodies from my #sss package from @Gissy I just love the Lampost print and the candle smells sooo good! Also the tote and matching mug are fabulous!!!
@Gissy I cannot believe the awesomeness of the #sss package you sent! Everything in it is fabulous! You really did a great job finding everything I would like. (The little box is soo adorable!) I can‘t wait to start on the books. (This is part one of what‘s inside for everyone watching!) Thank you so much!!! And thank you @Avanders for setting up such a great swap!!!
If you enjoy YA/Middle Grade audiobooks or have kids who do this one is so fun to listen to!!! It‘s on sale today on Audible for only $1.95. The audio production is awesome. I loved it! It‘s the Daily Deal so get it while you can!
