I can't decide which one to read next..

Note: I've already read the R.A.Wilson ones before, but it feels like it's time to reread them...

1. I'm currently in love with the book "The Hate You Give"

2. I have moments where I can be either....

Thanks for the tag, @RamsFan1963 for tagging me, and to @AmandaBlaze for creating this.

#twosomethurs

1. Single POV

2. Yes, the one tagged above... in Arabic.

3. Mood reader.... though I try to be a "list" reader.

@Eggs #wonderouswednesday

1. Honestly, I am in the middle of "The Hate You Give" and I can't get enough of it.... will likely finish it soon.... then, who knows.

2. There are so many words that are over used or used incorrectly. I'm tired of the way folks water down the words "Love" and "Friend." These have depth of meaning for me that I feel few actually convey when using.

Thanks for tagging me @RamsFan1963 .... Thanks for creating this, @TheSpineView

1. I grew up in a suuuuuuper small town (pop. 175) so when the rodeo/fair came to the neighboring town, it was a yearly highlight.

2. I buy my books always now because I can never return shit on time.

Thanks for the game @Eggs, and for tagging me @DarkMina .... wanna play, @RamsFan1963 ?

3. "Into the Painted Bear Lair" by Pamela Stearns

1. I'm not familiar with this term.....

2. I always prefer to read....

Thanks for the tag @RamsFan1963 and thanks for the game, @TheSpineView ... what actually is a "chunkster?"

Wanna play, @DarkMina ?

1. Nope... can't....

2. Yes. I learned more information about neuroplasticity and how remarkable are our brains.

Thanks for the tag @RamsFan1963 and the game, @TheSpineView

Thanks for the tag @RamsFan1963
And for the game, @TheSpineView

1. All Ramona Quimby books or Nancy Drew books reminds me of my childhood.

2. I mostly read historical fiction, and the ones I choose are typically set in other countries.... but a bias, per se.... just what occurs.

Thanks for the tag, @RamsFan1963 and for not giving up on me. I've not been on social media... Same with @DarkMina for keeping the faith. Wanna play?

Thanks, @Eggs for the game.

Who wants to play? @DarkMina ?

1. No. I rarely read reviews unless they are by folks I'm connected to on here or Goodreads... and that's only when they post them, not when I'm prepping to write one.

2. Not at all.

Thanks for the tag, @RamsFan1963 and the game, @TheSpineView

Here's another, if ya wanna, @DarkMina 😁

This book is awful. If it weren't for #bookspinbingo I'd abort this one.... but I'm trudging through. I'll have a scathing review to share once completed, I'm sure...

#shitbooks

2. Rosalind Miles is my favourite writer of historical fiction

3. Steven Pinker

Sorry I'm a bit late, but thank you @DarkMina for the tag... and thanks @Eggs for this fun bit.

I've crossed a threshold.

Is he ever not great? I've yet to read a book by Christopher Moore that I haven't loved.

#vampires #vampirenovel

An excellent book about a commonly misunderstood addiction. This author has overcome the addiction himself and created a successful treatment plan for those suffering from this as well as their partners.

1. No.

2. Yes. I do a lot of graphic design work and listening to a book while I'm working actually helps me stay focused.
Also, when I'm driving it's a great way to avoid road rage. 🀣

#wondrouswednesday

Finished my list for the April edition of #bookspinbingo
Many of these I've carried over from the previous month...

Hope to read more this month....
@TheAromaofBooks

I am quite sure I'll not complete anymore books over the next few days.... so here's the tally on my #bookspinbingo for March. Gonna post my next list soon!

@TheAromaofBooks

Gathering my books for #bookspinbingo April edition.

@TheAromaofBooks

I found out last night that one of my favourite authors since childhood died recently. Her books were a refuge in my childhood. Thank goodness she was such a prolific author, because she gave me many worlds in which to live, as well as stories that will forever live in me. You are missed, but always remembered, Beverly Cleary.

This book is unbelievably quotable.... 🀣

1. Yes!.... actually, accept may be a better word. 🀣
2. My father is an avid reader of mostly Sci-Fi
3. Something (anything) by Jane Austen

Thanks for the tag @DarkMina ....@eggs #wonderouswednesday

I have a new reading companion.... Well, tbh, she doesn't really let me read just yet. She's trying to get used to the surroundings and is quite clingy. (I really don't mind that at all 🀣.) She's a great cuddler.

Trying to name her - Mugwort or Sekhmet?

#catsoflitsy #readingcompanion

The information is all correct, but the writing is dry and not organized well. I would not recommend this to someone unfamiliar with this info due to its boring af presentation.

I actually get disappointed when I come to the end of his books. Such a brilliant writer, and I love the way he views the living aspect of English.

1. In a wooded park.
2. Non-fiction
3. I don't much snack....
4. Cocoa Pebbles

Thanks for the tag. This was fun, @RamsFan1963
@BooksCoffeeNurse

Thank you for tagging me @RamsFan1963 This was quite fun!

Thank you for creating, @DarkMina

I have a collection of bookmarks.... and mostly I use found objects. Anyone else? 🀣

I know... I know... I shouldn't get new books until I read all the old ones...but....

#bookhaul

1. Not yet! Hopefully there won't be any....

2. Hmmm....... Can't think of any atm....

Thanks for the tag, @RamsFan1963 And for creating this, @TheSpineView

These are the books I've left to read for March's #bookspinbingo in order to complete one line and do the two pics.... which one should I pick up next!?

@ElleSkel thank you so much for the book, Homegoing!! I'm so very blessed and excited to read it.... As such, I wanna pay it forward. I've only one book to share at the moment, but if anyone wants it, I'll send it to ya. Just let me know....

Note: this is a hardback library withdrawal.

#giveaway #payitforward #gratitude

Thank you for the tag, @RamsFan1963

1 - Paperback.
2 - As a child, under the sink in the kitchen
3 - I'm grateful to have water and power back after the storm here in Texas took those both away from most of us...

#wondrouswednesday

Anyone who'd like to play.... maybe @AkashaVampie @xicanti @Andrew65 ?

Good thing I've an awful memory at times, since I was able to enjoy this book twice. I went to log this book into my Goodreads, and saw that I had already reviewed it. 🀣

My excuse is that I read it shortly after having my third child. (Mommy Brain)

Neil Gaiman is *always* brilliant!

I finished all the books I was reading at the end of February, so decided to read this book, as it was #1 on my #bookspinbingo list, and build my bingo with this book as the starting point.

This will be my first bingo, and I'm excited to participate. I've chosen to do the line - 5, 1, 3, 14, & 20... Am I doing this right, @TheAromaofBooks ?

I clocked about 15 hours on my first #readathon which was hosted by @Andrew65 and can be found under #20in4

"For all their artifactual splendor, dictionaries are misleading portraits of something as endlessly transforming as language."

???

I loved this book and the theories proposed by the author. This book presents an alternative idea that disputes the Essentialist view of emotions and how they are processed and presented. I enjoy the viewpoint and definitely recommend this book.

Finished in hour 9 of #20in4 readathon.

I'm excited to participate in March's #bookspinbingo hosted by @TheAromaofBooks .... This will be my first time joining.
#doublespin #bookspin

My #20in4 reading couch.... this is where the magic happens.

I'm about 6 hours into 20, so a bit behind, but I expected that. @Andrew65 I'm still going though. Two more days....

Alright, @RamsFan1963 ... I'm in! Thank you for welcoming me, @Andrew65

I've a busy weekend ahead, but I'm gonna put in as many hours as I can!!

Join me, anyone who is interested. πŸ–€

A classic, for sure, but this is my first time reading it. Loved it!

Gentle life advice from someone quite familiar with death.

Adorable and fun. A cute tale written for children, but equally entertaining for me.... though I'm childlike in many ways.

Hot off the heels of a "president" that had no idea how government actually works and didn't actually care, this book is an impressive look at integrity within the system of government. Kennedy writes biographical essays about politicians who held true to their beliefs in the face of adversity. They did what they felt right, even when bullied by other politicians to conform.

Snowed in.... in Texas!! So, of course, I read. Bernd Heinrich is my favourite naturalist and this book is fabulous. Exactly what I needed.

This was a quick, enjoyable read. I enjoyed it and found some useful info and support for kicking my inner critic's ass.

#creativity #selflove #innercritic #artist

This book is adorable. I rather enjoyed it. Although it appears fluff, the underlying message about friendship and communication is quite real.
