#49BDayGiveaway ! Tagged my current read. Thanks @Jerdencon !

While I would love to blow $50 on paperbacks, studying for the LSAT and the GRE at the same time is expensive!! Congrats @TheSpineView on your #50KLoveLitsy !

I think this one is my favorite book of the year so far, but then again I always favor the ones I‘ve just read! Thanks for the opportunity, @EH2018 !

Some reads for Short Book September!! All under 250 pages (or thereabouts). Tagged one of my favorites so far! #sbksept Thanks for the idea, @juliannebenford ❤️📚

#TuesdayTidbits @JenlovesJT47 1) Tome! 2) Can I say both? If I really have to choose, Harry Potter 3) Physical books are much preferred but I‘ll read it any way you give it to me! 4) Tea 5) Agatha Christie - I‘ve been on an Agatha Christie binge lately! ... Just finished the tagged book about Nancy Drew (the magnifying glass is in her honor).

For this, my first post in forever AND my first post in the beautiful country of Senegal 🇸🇳, here‘s a look at a very small part of what I‘ve been doing here ~ reading (because no matter where I am, I‘m always reading!)
Tagged is one my most recent reads and a favorite for this year @callielafleur #ClearingtheShelves3

Currently juggling these two beauties, both due back to the library by the day after tomorrow (the 8th). 😱😱😱

So I know this doesn't exactly sound like a ringing endorsement of either book but... I read both of these this year, and while I kind of get them confused when I think back on them, I really enjoyed them both.

Forgot to post when this occurred, but I caught the moment!! #Spooky

I don't know if I'm just at the right age or time in my life for Rupi Kaur but these days her poems seem to be exactly what I need to hear. #SelfAffirmation

Currently reading and really digging this book that hasn't been getting as much litsy love as it deserves. (Cover pic from google)

This book was sooooo good! And such a good follow up to the March series. (I love those weird library book selection coincidences where somehow you end up picking a bunch of books dealing with a similar topic: in this case, segregation and Jim Crow).

My bedside book stack is getting more and more out of hand... #spacejam #technicallynotashelf

Interesting and dark graphic novel about one of the Lost Generation's forgotten literary stars.

Saw the new commercial for this show and had to read the book before it premiers! #24in48 #Book2

Getting a bit of a late start to the #24in48 because Artscape is today in Baltimore, and then this classic was on tv when we got home! What's a reader to do?

Not the brightest start to the #24in48 weekend, but a pick nonetheless

Success! Thanks mom!

T minus 8 hours until my last final of the semester and had to shoot my mom a late night text before going back to studying...

Is it a gift if your professor gives you his book that's required reading for his class for free? My parents (who pay for my books) definitely think so! #BooksfromLiberty @Liberty

Mr. Preston has a fundamental misunderstanding of what "compulsively readable" means... Also please note the abundance of cat hair sticking to the cover ?

I've been stalled on this one for a while... I thought the sister was being really whiny and self-absorbed to the point that I had to take a break. Still not sure if I'll get back to it anytime soon.

This is potentially the snarkiest aside that I have ever seen in a published work. I liked the Da Vinci Code! I mean, it's not Shakespeare, but neither is your book Misters Micklethwait and Wooldridge! #lol

Can we all just agree that it's super not ok to refer to women by their first name while simultaneously referring to men by their last names if you don't personally know the woman? Which, considering she died in 1944, I doubt you did?! (Aimee Semple McPherson is just Aimee, meanwhile William Seymour is consistently referred to by his last name.) #FthePatriarchy

Tonight's bath time book, my last read for my Middle Eastern Politics class and the first fiction book of the semester! (Joy!)

Loving this little history of one of my favorite places I've ever been as a break from all the class reading I should be doing... Particularly all the vignettes about special buildings and shops; it's added a lot of locales to my to-do list for next time!

Someone seriously needs to restrain me... More new ebook purchases.

An interesting discussion of religious legislative overreach in America... Not bad for class reading!

Can't wait until Winter Break when I'll be able to get back to reading for pleasure instead of doing all this class reading! Reading about the failure of the Arab Spring and the Euro Crisis is getting mighty depressing...

Omg why did y'all have to tell me about Cyber Monday sales?!?! My dad is gonna kill me when he gets these Amazon notifications... #ThanksLitsy

I ❤️ Jane Austen, and this was no exception.

On to the Valley of Fear, and more of the beautiful cover on this edition of the Sherlock Holmes novels...

The Sign of the Four. (It was originally published in America so I'll use the American title, thank you very much.) I'm loving my first time reading the early Sherlock Holmes, with Holmes and Watson just getting to know each other and the introduction of new characters who'll become regulars.

I'm still stuck in the spirit of #24in48 I guess, so I finished this one in a day. Surprisingly good. ~I ❤️ Braque~

My reading companion caught mid-noms.

Well it's an unruly stack, but it's official, I'm done! #24in48 #readathon ~*~24 hours, 5 books~*~

Finished Book 5 of my #readathon, #24in48, although I guess it's more like #24in72 now... I'm at 19 hours, 54 minutes!

This is basically a 2 in 1 but I figured I'd throw in an #honestbooktitle for funsies as I'm realizing this book has a MILLION endings. Return of the King should really be called Return of the King & Saruman's still an ass & Ents made a garden & Eowyn and Faramir are my new OTP, etc. etc. SO, I've managed to get 19 hours done so far, and read almost 5 books. #24in48 #readathon

With 10ish hours left to go on my personal #24in48, I'm thinking that I kind of started early so I might as well finish late. Good thing I'm off on Monday! So, getting back to Return of the King after taking a break for library books. (Book 5 of the #readathon!)

The only kind of book I can read without the kitty 🐱interrupting horribly (audiobook) #24in48 #readathon

Creepy, I guess, knowing the plot, but disregarding that... This could describe my life. #blessed #24in48 #readathon

On to the next one! #24in48 #readathon

So, I haven't quite read this one yet but I had to bring it out for my favorite #dysfunctionalfamily, the Borgias. They're not exactly fictional, but this is a historical fiction novel so I figure it counts. #24in48 #readathon

Almost 5 hours in to my personal #24in48; finished my second book! #readathon

Almost 5 hours in to my personal #24in48; finished my second book!

First book read, first book finished! #24in48 Chosen at random because I happened to be in Barnes and Noble today and everyone knows I can't leave a bookstore without buying a book. The blurb reminded me of the new Helen Mirren movie (Woman in Gold, I think?) that I've been meaning to see. #readathon
