I really loved this book! This I didn‘t think was my typical genre but looking over my 2023 reading list…I‘ve kinda dipped in to the romantacy genre 🤭 This book was super cute & I absolutely loved the character Evie she felt so relatable to my social emotions! The storyline was great with surprises & that ending! Gosh I‘m ready for book 2 now (not due until Aug 😭). Definitely anxiously awaiting the next installment!

#SassyBookworm😏 #Romantacy

This was a sweet YA Fantasy. I loved the main characters using typewriters & writing letters to each other. Cute enemies to lovers tale with the backdrop of a war. Excited to read the next book in this series!

Meant to post this the other day but excited that I finally finished my Goodreads reading challenge!!

#SassyBookworm😏 #ReadingChallenge

Loved this audiobook! A beautifully written book from two different perspectives decades apart. I love Lucille and the adventure that her grandmother sends her on. Alice‘s story will give you all the emotions. And I loved it all.
I‘ll definitely be checking out more from this author!

I tried but just couldn‘t finish this book. She writes like how I feel a squirrel would think…just here there and all over the place. I‘m sure it was great for her to get out all of her feelings and emotions but the book really needed a better editor to help her make this work.

#SassyBookworm😏 #IronFlame #Wrecked #CantEven

I‘m about 80% through Iron Flame! I‘ve seen a few spoilers and such bc well that‘s just me being nosy 😏 bc I‘m a slower reader & I‘m curious. I‘m dying to get to the end but I know I‘m gonna freak and be anxiously awaiting book 3! Pretty sure I‘m gonna have to reread both books and do some major highlighting!

This was our book clubs read for October! Today we met again at a local winery (mango wine slushy pictured, delicious!) to discuss this great book. Everyone seemed to love the book and we had a great discussion about all the crazy twist and turns throughout! Our next pick is Go As A River by Shelley Read. Excited for our next month‘s meeting!

#SassyBookworm😏 #BookClubReads

I absolutely loved this book! It wrapped up things quite nicely for the story that had been building throughout the trilogy. I loved being back in this world as Evangeline navigated all the things thrown her way. I also loved the hint of potential new books in this world at the end.

#SassyBookworm😏 #ACurseForTrueLove #Audiobook #Libby

So my day consisted of running some errands, cooking a fabulous clam linguine for lunch & a huge pot of veggie soup for dinner. All the while listening to my #Libby audiobook, I almost got through 50%!! What a fantastic day off today after a crazy busy day yesterday at work. Plus peep my sleepy babies in the top right corner. Oliver (orange) & Luna (black).

#SassyBookworm😏 #Audiobook #AudioCooking

Would have preferred this to have been ebook but when my library hold says ‘several months‘ & your 17th in line…you take what you can get! But I have to say it‘s a perfect day bc I have so much I‘m going to do around my house & excited to start listening!

Forget the candy…just add to my TBR 📚🤣🤷🏼‍♀️🤓😏

Wow! Some of the things she wrote about just amazed me. Especially the part about them not getting paid for their part in the tv production for the longest time, & having to fight for it! Many of the IBLP principals she mentioned were adapted in to the conservative Christian culture that I grew up in so many of the problems she wrote about with that were quite familiar. Hopefully with time the family will heal.

This is sooo cute & sooo true!!! *Found on Pinterest*

Great start to a new historical fiction cozy mystery series! I absolutely loved Evelyn ‘Evie‘ and her determination which led to her detective role🕵🏼‍♀️ The mystery had a good little twist and kept my interest. The ending was perfect and definitely set up for more in this series! I‘ll for sure be back for more when the next book comes out!

Litsy Family meet Luna! She & her twin sister we found abandoned at a stop sign. My oldest daughter, now living in an apt 4hrs away for college, was happy to take sister Smokey. I was determined not to add another cat to our house(we have 4). But after several facebook post & seeing how full our local shelters were we didn‘t have the heart to let her go(plus she is precious).
I‘m officially a cat lady now, right!

#SassyBookworm😏 #KittensOfLitsy

Audio cooking today! It‘s my day off work today so, even though it‘s warmer today than it has been recently, I‘m making homemade chili! My husband has been begging me to make it since the first sign of fall was in the air.
I really like this audio book so far but have had a little trouble keeping up with the multiple characters since they aren‘t separated by chapters.

#SassyBookworm😏 #AudioCooking #FallVibes 🍂

Part of September and most all of October I have been in a major slump 😞. I‘ve tried several different books and still returned them mostly unread to the library.
We‘ve had some friends (2) that have lost their spouse and my husband‘s almost 2nd dad (his childhood best friend‘s father) pass away. It‘s taken a lot out of us mentally.
I‘ve got some good books going now, still a bit slow but I‘m getting there 🙂

#SassyBookworm😏 #ReadingSlump

Love when I request an ebook for my library to purchase and they buy it!! Excited to start this one soon!!

#SassyBookworm😏 #Libby

Sometimes your book hang over is so bad you just go back to reread the book 😏

#SassyBookworm😏 #FourthWing #LateNightThoughts #LateNightQuotes

Love this time of year!!!🧡🖤🧡🖤

#SassyBookwork😏 #LateNightThoughts #Halloween

Did some hiking today with my youngest since this is her fall break & I had the day off work. We are all a bit sad that the beach wasn‘t in the cards for us this year so we decided on this fun nature walk/rock climbing adventure today! The drive was 1.5hrs each way so we loved listening to HP2 all the way there and back! I love that she is so into HP now! Especially since she‘ll turn 11 this year 😏

#SassyBookworm😏 #AudioRoadTripping #GirlsDay

My completed September reads! I was hoping to finish 7 books but 5 isn‘t too bad especially when I had a major book hangover after Fourth Wing.

#SassyBookworm😏 #BookedInTime #SummerEndReadathon

This book y‘all!!! I needed something to draw me out of my book slump and boy did this ever! I‘m typically a slow reader and I literally started this book yesterday…and finished today 😳(that‘s huge for me). It‘s creepy stalker/mad woman/whole situations of crazy all slamming into a woman‘s life who is a famous podcaster. It was just…wow 😳🫢😱🤯

#SassyBookworm😏 #BookClubReads #SummerEndReadathon

Soo I have definitely been in a reading slump since I finished Fourth Wing. But this is my book clubs pick for October and it checked out today! Hopefully this will help me get back in the groove as I have started 2 other ebooks and still haven‘t finished my audiobook 😬.

If this doesn‘t help I may seriously have to reread Forth Wing 😏🤭

Today our book club met at a local vineyard/winery & we had this beautiful charcuterie to go with a wonderful mango wine slushy! We had a wonderful discussion about the tagged book (which I still haven‘t finished, thanks to my Fourth Wing hangover 🤷🏼‍♀️). But lots of laughs, bookish things and of course book suggestions! Excited about our next months book None of This is True by Lisa Jewell.

#SassyBookworm😏 #BookClubReads #SummerEndReadathon

Umm…guilty 🙋🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️

#SassyBookworm😏 #LateNightThoughts #LateNightQuotes #BookwormProblems

This book was different than what I was expecting. By the title you‘re expecting the perspective of 1 person…not the case here. You follow 2 different women and that threw me off for the longest time and it still didn‘t really come together like you‘d hope/expect. I did like both their perspectives but I was confused the whole time the point of the second lady. I would give this book 3.5 stars.

#SassyBookworm😏 #BookedInTime #SummerEndReadathon

My current state after finishing Fourth Wing today…I haven‘t been able to continue on with the book I was reading when I stopped it to read Fourth Wing 🥴

#SassyBookworm😏 #FourthWing #BookHangover #LateNightQuotes #LateNightThoughts

WORTH. THE. HYPE. I totally and completely devoured this book! Between the action and the first year at Basgiath with everything that entails…sooo freakin‘ good!!! And THAT ending!!! I kinda saw it coming but wasn‘t sure but dang bring on Book 2 on Nov. 7th!!

🍏Pumpkin patches, apple cider, football, soups/chili and snuggling with a fuzzy blanket to read.

🍏Fourth Wing, One Woman‘s War & Island of Sweet Pies & Soldiers

*Where do y‘all Apple pick? We don‘t have that in western Kentucky*

Thanks for the tag @Eggs

Sooo I‘ve (almost) felt as if I‘m ‘cheating‘ on my original book BUT I‘m having a hard time with ‘One Woman‘s War‘ soooo…I dove head first in to Fourth Wing today. AAANNNNNDDDD I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!! I‘m a slower reader typically but I‘m over 40% in (that‘s basically like a whole normal book for me!) and I started reading it at work *again 🤭*

Sometimes I just wish reading was my day job 😉

#SassyBookworm😏 #TheHypeIsReal #SummerEndReadathon

Yes I am 😏

#SassyBookworm😏 #LateNightThoughts #LateNightQuotes #KeeperOfBooks

Look what just dropped in my #Libby app!!! I am super excited!!! I‘ve seen all the hype and at first I was hesitant but when a good friend told me it‘s worth the hype well I immediately placed it on hold…back in July 😳

Picture is what I automatically think of when dragons come to mind. This is a image from one of mine & my husbands favorite movies Reign of Fire.

#SassyBookworm😏 #Dragons #FourthWing #SummerEndReadathon

I have always loved the James Bond 007 movies especially the more recent ones with Daniel Craig as Bond. So when I spotted this book I knew I had to read it! Miss Moneypenny played by Naomie Harris has been my favorite! She‘s tough yet still very much a woman in a male dominated world. I‘m excited to get this started!

#SassyBookworm😏 #BookedInTime #SummerEndReadathon

I literally could•not•put•this•down!! I devoured a big chunk of this at work today 🤭 This was so different from the first book yet connected. This story was all about the youngest Thaumas sister Verity. It‘s set 12 years after the first book and I honestly loved it more than the first and the creep factor had me so captivated to see what was next! I will say with that ending…there better be another!!

#SassyBookworm😏 #SummerEndReadathon

Last official day of summer will be spent doing what I love! Sitting in the pool at our local water park reading my kindle while my kiddo and husband run around the park! I may have to get one last water ride in before the day ends 😏

Happy Labor Day Littens!!!

#SassyBookworm😏 #LastDayofSummer #LaborDayWeekend #SummersEndReadathon

This definitely pulled on a lot of emotions, & really brought to life the terrible experiences the Jewish community had to endure. What an amazing story about people doing their best to save books & keep the true purpose of the library alive. Zofia was a wonderful character who deeply loved her best friend Janina, & what both woman went through during the Nazi occupation in Poland. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

#Sassybookworm😏 #BookedInTime #SummersEndReadathon

Exactly!! This is why I love my Book Club and of course love Litsy!!!

#SassyBookworm😏 #TheKeeperofHiddenBooks #BookedInTime #SummersEndReadathon #LateNightThoughts #LateNightQuotes

I‘m so excited about these two books checking out for me on my #Libby app!!! This just makes this long weekend even better!!

#SassyBookworm😏 #BookHaul #BookedInTime #SummerEndReadathon

My favorite time of the day is when both my husband and daughter are in bed. It‘s quite in the house, I‘m snuggled up with a blanket and my kindle!

#SassyBookworm😏 #LateNightThoughts #LateNightQuotes

🐦 Home-seems like anytime I go to a theater there is always loud/disturbing people/kids. Home is quite and I can pause if needed

🐤 Hobbies-really just reading and being outdoors whenever the weather is nice (walking in the woods, trails etc.)

🐧 Both- I absolutely love my home cooking and plan my dinners each week! But I sure love having a night off and dining out (especially on weekends)

#SassyBookworm😏 #WondrousWednesday

This is super exciting!! I love @TheSpineView ‘s flexibility for this challenge! I‘m usually a slow reader but in August I read 7 books so I‘d like to ‘try‘ for that in September. I know September will be much busier with football season starting, my daughter is an elementary school cheerleader, we also like to attend local hs games & we are big college football fans in our house. But challenge excepted!

#SassyBookworm😏 #SummerEndReadathon 📚

Audiobookin‘ and supper cookin‘! I‘m getting a bit of a head start on my books for the September #BookedInTime challenge! My absolute favorite genre is WWII (or WWI) historical fiction!

#SassyBookworm😏 #HistoricalFiction #Audiobook #Hoopla

Loved this insightful audiobook! I was a late comer to the Friends party. I had watched episodes here and there but wasn‘t a fan. Will & Grace was my ‘show.‘ But during covid my oldest daughter and I would record every episode and watch them ALL NIGHT! So now we both and now my youngest daughter are fans! This was such a great book and I loved all the behind the scenes details!

Book club meeting today was wonderful! We met at a local coffee shop and had a wonderful discussion on our August book (tagged book!). We even discovered one of our members had her own fairy tale meeting with her husband (we all were swooning!). Excited for our September meeting and our September pick of The Golden Spoon by Jesse Maxwell!
