I would like to welcome my older sister @Kzoonancy to Litsy!

She‘s an active member of her book club, regularly visits several libraries, and has a GoodReads!

Her reading tastes cover Harry Potter, Nicholas Sparks, Janet Evanovich, romantasy, suspense, and contemporary.

Her profile is private, but please wish her a warm welcome here!

This book dealt with some heavy trauma for the main character and surrounding folks. They believed in God, prayed, and he saw them through their trials. Beautifully written and the information was imparted in a delicate way that is not graphic. I listened to the #audiobook and was pleased with the all male narration.

Thanks to @Leniverse I was able to purchase the SIGNED edition of Keira Knightley‘s children‘s book 🥰 The slip case is on the right. Makes me so happy to hold this book in-hand!

Here are my #NatureWinterCardSwap cards 🥰 They have brought such joy to my mailbox and home!

Thank you so much for all the quotes, stickers, and bookmarks!

I‘ve been saving up my posts. This one got lost among the piles.

Thank you @Gissy for the #SummerCardSwap and #FallCardSwap!!! I appreciated receiving the package in the mail with both swaps!

#YuleSeasonSwap

Thanks to @maich for the lovely package! I‘ve had my eye on these two books for some time. My daughter and I are looking forward to trying the hot chocolate!

I had to show off this beautiful 😍 wrapping paper @TieDyeDude used for my items!

#YuleSeasonSwap

Thank you @bumpinthenight for the thoughtful selection of flowering tea and books! Both books are on my TBR!

#YuleSeasonSwap

My third and final package arrived today!

Thank you @maich !!!

Took a quiz and I‘m the Cozy Escapist!

This was such a great book for #LittensLoveRomance. It gave me all the feels 🥰 The pacing of the romance and the reveal of information was fantastic; had me reading ahead to see what happened! Needless to say Harriet and Nolan get their HEA 💝

Came across this license plate and thought “that‘s a lot of books to DNF!” 😂

#PemberLittens

Happy 250th Birthday, Jane Austen!!!!

Going to start this #ebook today, a #buddyread with @VioletCavalier !

#LittensLoveRomance

Started this #audiobook today!

Just three chapters in and I‘m in love! The banter is realistic and entertaining. Nolan is a 100 year old ghost who has this whole “ghost of Christmas past” thing down. While Harriet isn‘t sure why she‘s being haunted. I can‘t wait to see both of their evolutions!

#majicmonday

It may be cold outside, but I‘m still working from home, as I do every Monday!

It snowed a little, pretty to watch. ❄️

#SundayFunday

Loved the Bone Crier‘s Moon! Can‘t wait to continue the duology!

#LittensLoveRomance

I‘ve been very bad and slow about posting on Litsy.

Here‘s my review: loved the story, it was a quick read. I was glad to get back to Rome, KY. Amelia and Noah were too cute trying not to be attracted to each other. I‘m sooo glad they were willing to try each other‘s lifestyles to make it work between them!

These would look adorable on my #PrideAndPrejudice shelf!!!

Can‘t wait to read this #LittensLoveRomance selection!

Starting 12/15/25 read 3️⃣ chapters a day!

The Rake Review will be back in 2026 with 12 new rakes to get raked across the coals by The Brazen Belle! She was 12 for 12 in 2024, can she get 12 more men to reform and find love?!

Took my #YuleSeasonSwap and #NatureWinterCardSwap envelopes ✉️ to the USPS post office back on the 6th. Many USA recipients should have received their cards by now!

Received my #YuleSeasonSwap on 12/6/25!

I opened the box and saw all my beautifully wrapped goodies!!! LOVE the blue and gold wrapping paper!!!

I can‘t wait to open in a couple weeks and see what goodies I received!!!

I wish my passport was stamped by all the places I‘ve visited in books!

A quick #audiobook listen!

A good backstory for Mae West, which shows a nice juxtaposition from city life to small town life.

Some details a bit exaggerated, like getting a campground ready for a fundraiser on three days!

Too much fluff writing of daily life, not enough mystery solving.

Abridged Christmas Classics

#YuleSeasonSwap

@bumpinthenight my package arrived!!! The wrapping is gorgeous 😍

Now the month long wait…

#ReadYourKindle

Here are my December 2025 selections.
Goal to read one.

Since I fell behind in my reading goal since August, this will be my last month participating (for now)! I still plan on “catching up” and reading the book I picked for each month.

Thanks @CBee for choosing numbers each month; I‘ve had a great time making my lists and reading off my virtual shelf! ☺️

Book tree 🎄 spotted at the Dearborn, #Michigan, Festival of Trees!!

Does anyone make a stacked book tree? 📚

The tagged book, When in Rome, is based off of the movie shown, Roman Holiday.

Has anyone seen this movie?

I haven‘t.

Another book I‘m reading, Big Great Beautiful Life, has also mentioned this same movie!

What are the odds that two books at the same time have mentioned the same movie?!

With how crazy visiting with family gets, I forgot to post this on Thanksgiving (two days ago)! Hopefully all my USA Littens had a wonderful holiday day and extended weekend!!!

With my local #EasternMichigan chapter of #JASNA I attended this 90 minute play, which covered all SIX of her major works, her JUVENILE writings, and the SHORT WORKS (Lady Susan, The Watsons, and Sanditon)!!! Talk about packing in all those summaries into a short span of time! The three actors did an amazing job performing that I was in laughing tears one minute and in warm fuzzy tears the next!

Another store at Canterbury Village in Lake Orion #Michigan allows local artist to sell their items. Here are two authors with their books on display! 📚

At Canterbury Village in Lake Orion #Michigan there‘s a new and used #bookstore!!! Stopped in and checked out the selections! 📚 💝

I supported a #localAuthor from Michigan ✋🏻 with her #kickstarter campaign. She wrote a #PrideAndPrejudice retelling with dragons! Here‘s my goodie box! 📦

This past Saturday I attended a theatrical performance of Pride & Prejudice by the Stoney Creek High School students!

It was very well done, performed with sincerity and heart; I felt it 🥰

I attended a NatGeo Live talk by underwater archeologist Lisa Briggs where she talked about a couple of the #Pirate shipwrecks she worked on! She was very enthusiastic for her work and knowledgeable about the subject matter! 🏴‍☠️

A Little Free Library in a Shelby Twp, MI, park! It was a Girl Scout Silver project.
