Life is good. So was #20in4 . My goal was 13 hours of reading I hit 15:04. I am happy with that. Now, of my 10 and 13 yr old could find a way to get along the chances of me reaching 20 hours would be phenomenal. #HappyReading Litsy friends.
P.S. The Keepers of Metsan Valo was not what I expected but it is a solid 4⭐️

Happiness in book form.
#20in4

This was heavy but great. It makes me a bit sad that I didn't read it years ago. #20in4

I plan to keep track of hours read. If I make it to 20 hours, great, but a more realistic for me would be 12 hours. #20in4 @Andrew65

I met 3 of the 6 #JoysOfJune goals. I am happy though. Life got in the way but all were good reasons. My best friend came to town. My teenager actually wanted to have conversations with me. So I am considering this readathon a success. @Andrew65

I don't know what to say. There are so many books about the Holocaust but the Maus series just hits differently. 4⭐️
#JoysOfJune

I am in a bookish Dilemma. Do I stay the course I planned for #JoysOfJune or Do I go borrow book 3 in this series ASAP? 4⭐️

This was a fun read. It feels weird to say a book involving sex clubs and swingers was classy, but the book was written with class. It could have gone it an incredibly raunchy direction, it did not. It gave us glimpses into a scandalous world, without shaming.

My goals for #JoysOfJune.
Finish Tunnel of Bones
Start and finish Maus II
Finish The Lifestyle
Start and Finish Perks Of Being A Wallflower
Start Tough
Start Part Of Your World

This was just "ehhh" for me until the end. I think the concept was great but it was drawn out too long.

Sleeping, like #SirWatson , is what I should be doing, instead. It is 2:30am and I have just finished a book.
This book was an incredibly quick read, but a read that made me happy. I love that the relationship in this book showed that accepting a person at their worst is a big part of loving someone.

Coffee, flower transfer, now reading on my deck.

Every once in a while I need a cute romance. This was perfect. I really relate to Nora's need to fix everything.

That ending was perfection that I never saw coming. Jennifer McMahon wins again.

I have met my 750 page goal, with 761 page at 8:04pm. I will probably get a bit more reading in, but wanted to post before I forgot. #MarvelousMay @Andrew65

Feeling content. A feeling that I think is extremely underrated. My favorite room, a book I am enthralled by and and incredible playlist I found on Spotify. It is a great feeling to know there is nothing else you would rather be doing at the moment. #ContentmentIsAGoodThing #MarvelousMay

The pace was too slow for my liking, but the subject was interesting. I definitely relate to the sad music and doing art as therapy. #MarvelousMay

I liked it. I will be trying more of his books. I like horror movies and this played clearly in my mind. #MarvelousMay

I didn't post my #MarvelousMay goal. 750 pages. I knew this time around was going to be difficult with a friend's graduation, husband on O.T. and kids on their first week of summer break. ☀️

1. Medication, and alone time plus learning to spend less time on social media.
2. This week I have done more pour painting, and spent time outside reading and listening music.

This book is all around beauty! It is going to be put in a place where anybody who walks in my house can see it, pick it up, and find simple joy.

This book was a Mother's Day gift. It is beautiful and this made me laugh out loud. "If at first you don't succeed have some cake."

Ehh... that is how I feel about this book. Don't live it, don't hate it just ehh.

#atticus2016 #SirWatson these two look like the golden couple but this picture was taken about a minute before that big red ball was dropped on the cat and the fight began.

I just couldn't so it. Reading is my escape this book put me directly in the pages of social media. I think it could probably be a fantastic book but for my mental well being I bailed.

This was one of the easiest military reads I have ever had. There was not a ton of military lingo that a civilian wouldn't know, or isn't clearly explained. It was also a very quick read.

Photo of the skittles is just because I am incredibly happy to have the lime back.

Jennifer McMahon doesn't disappoint. She has become a favorite author of mine. 4 ⭐️

Filling in as secretary today. This was a very positive read. ✨️

I enjoyed the story but found myself reading quickly to get through some of the length.

Finally going back to This Tender Land. Lucy Gray decided she wants to be my snuggle friend today. Also pictured is part of my latest thriftbook order. #bookmark #book haul #LucyGray

Wow!! I put this book off for so long, because I just knew that I would be disappointed. Seeing all the hype for this on social media messed with my mind. I am glad I gave in. This book was creepy in all the right ways. #TheHypeWasNotWrong #WhatHappened

Probably an unpopular opinion, but I was bored.

Today's reading friends. #atticus2016 #WatsonATwin #readingbuddy

Thought provoking, emotional, anger inducing. #ThingsInCommon

I have so many feelings while I read this book. Feelings on my past and feelings on my daughters future.

Finished this and handed it to my 13 year old son. Hopefully it is something we will both enjoy.

Truth.

Today's book haul. Some are for me, some will be put away as Christmas gifts. #BookHaul #ChristmasShoppingIsAllYearLong

I feel anxious after reading this. Dr.'s that let power go to their heads are scary. The book was great, Ruth was great, my brain just needs to chill with it's anxious ways. #ThingsInCommon

I did it! I met my #AwesomeAprilGoal. I know it was only one book but I always host Easter and that is has a lot of prep involved. This was a blind date book and the pic of the signs is from a fb group and I couldn't pass up the screenshot to show my husband. Happy Easter. #ThingsInCommon

Starting this. Glad I grabbed it on my way put the door, because my Kindle died and I don't have the charger with me.

My blind date book. This is my #AwesomeApril goal. I host Easter every year so one book is what I feel is possible to accomplish with my Easter prep.

Fast paced and mind boggling. 4⭐️
#ThingInCommom #ThingisEmily

It has been a #BookMailDay BOTM arrived and then I recieved this Blind Date with a Book.

#BookOfTheMonth arrival day.

*Giveaway win

I wanted to get that part out of the way, simple and to the point. This was a fun read. I had the family dilemma figure out early, but it didn't matter, I still wanted to be on the journey. Plus, it never hurts, in my opinion, to put as many positive Jane Eyre references as possible in one book.
This is book one for April. Time to pick the next read for #ThingsInCommon . @Clwojick

#WaitingRoomReading while I wait to see why the check engine light on my car is on.

I can't put my finger on why I did not love this book. Maybe it just wasn't the right time. I like this author, it just wasn't a book I loved.
