Meant to start this book today, but Mia is just too darn cute and not napping much today! Hoping that means she will take a long nap this afternoon and I can start!! 📖
Forgot to take a picture before, but our #lmpbc book is on the way to you @BennettBookworm !! They put a bunch of stamps on it at the post office so the envelope looks a little crazy 😜
I won this kindle book as an Early Reviewers ARC from LibraryThing...it took so long to get to me that the book is now released, but I love the cover and can‘t wait to get to it once I finish a current read!! 📖
When a local independent bookstore is closing ☹️ But they have a fill a bag for $5 sale 😁
bailedWell, I just couldn‘t make it. I don‘t even know what is happening and I really did not want to bail on a #lmpbc book...I just had to! I don‘t know how you powered through @LiteraryinLititz and @Mem_ugh and I‘m sorry I couldn‘t make it. I feel bad about bailing, but I found myself not even writing notes because I‘m like...what is even going on!?! I‘ll be sending it on to @BennettBookworm soon!! ❤️❤️❤️
so-soI‘m so torn on this book. Parts of it I was so into - the storyline really hooked me in places and I wanted to know what would happen! However, I was not a fan of the way it was laid out. It seemed to jump around. All of a sudden you would get to the end of a chapter where it would say a time period - every time I questioned if it was before or after the last section. Sometimes the next section was different characters and I‘d be like ???
I love our backyard view ❤️ Puppy nap time means reading time for me! 🐕 📖
pickI enjoyed this read and love her writing style! Even though I didn‘t love all of her decorating styles/tips, I enjoyed the concept of making your home right for you ❤️
Mia (our puppy) finally decided to nap which means I get to start my #lmpbc book before going outside to enjoy the lovely weather at the cabin ❤️
This one sounds so good! I can‘t wait for my #botm to arrive!! 😁
pickI really enjoyed the #lmpbc book this round!!! I had not heard of this series prior to these book picks and I‘m so glad to have come across them - I now need to read the whole series! The book is based on the true story of Constance Kopp - I enjoyed following her crime solving adventures 😁 Sending to @minkyb soon! @Carolyn11215 @Kappadeemom
I am really enjoying this book so far...right now it is even better because I can read it outside while enjoying Garrett‘s caramel and cheese mix popcorn ❤️
So excited to share...Mia joined our family today!!! ❤️🐶 After an almost 2 hour car ride, a walk around the yard and exploring the first floor of the house - she crashed and is ready for a nap. And I‘m starting a new book!
1️⃣ What made me happy this week? The tail end of our honeymoon in Manarola and Rome, Italy. Getting to spend so many days with my husband exploring ❤️
2️⃣ Relax and recoup days! On Saturday, we have a home visit to adopt a puppy! 🐶 After the home visit we get to schedule a time to meet a puppy they are holding for us!!!! We can‘t wait to meet her soon and (if all goes according to plan) bring her home with us! ❤️

Jet lag is real guys! I was up for 26 hours getting home from Rome yesterday and was completely exhausted when we finally got home at 1 am (my body still thought it was 8 am!) Yet I only slept for 3 hours! And I have been crazy productive today getting groceries, unpacking our suitcases and cleaning our house! I have a feeling once I sit down I‘ll crash. Anyway, this book had perfect timing arriving today (our first day back home). Starting soon!
pickJust finished at the airport...This is the third book my husband and I read together during our 2 week honeymoon! It was by far the best! It kept me guessing, on the edge of my seat and I loved the unique story line. I was reading this one every chance I could get. Now we have about 4 more hours until we board... 🛫
Side note: I love the feature on the Kindle now that shows what books you have read!!
9 hour flight from Rome to Detroit - now we wait in the airport for 8 hours before our second flight home 🤣 Hoping to finish this one during our layover! The first thing we did when we landed was go to Starbucks for a strawberry refresher 🤣🤣
Walking out of the train station when we arrived in Rome and spotted a bookstore...of course we had to stop 🤷🏻♀️📚
Reading on the train to Rome! I love the feel of real books, but I am LOVING how handy it has been bringing only our Kindles along on our 2 week honeymoon. Easy to carry lots of stories with less weight to haul around 😋
This is our last night in Manarola and I‘m so sad to be leaving in the morning!!!! Enjoying some relaxing time tonight reading on our patio after dinner ❤️🍴
Starting another new one before bed 🛌
Reading at the same time as my husband 😁
so-soFinished on our patio tonight! This one started off strong and lost me somewhere in the middle...I was definitely disappointed because Finder is one of my favorite authors. This one just became so unbelievable and hard to follow at times. I enjoyed the writing style, but the story line wasn‘t as good as I was expecting. This view did make it a little better ❤️
Next up !!! ❤️❤️❤️
We were told at the train station that the trains in Italy would be on strike today...so we got up at 4:15 am to get to Cinque Terre before the trains stopped at 9 am. We explored all morning and now relaxing with a book and our view from our patio. I‘m really going to enjoy this for the next 3 days!!!! 📚 📚 📚
pickGreat tips and suggestions in this book! I can‘t wait to get to Cinque Terre and explore 😁❤️
It is almost time for us to head to Cinque Terre so I thought I should finally read this guide 😁
Walking around Chur, Switzerland tonight and saw this cool looking library! Had to share with you 📖
panI really wanted to love this book - Coben is one of my favorite authors and my husband and I have been reading it together on our honeymoon. However, I just couldn‘t get into this one. The beginning drew me in and then it kind of fell flat. I didn‘t enjoy the ending. It was unbelievable and just disappointing. There were a few parts where I wanted to find out what would happen, but when I did it left me asking...really? Gotta love my view though!
I never want to leave this place ❤️🇨🇭 Switzerland is incredible!
The last few days have been busy traveling around Munich and Zurich. We have loved it, but now so excited to enjoy this view for the next 3 days - finally time to relax ❤️❤️❤️
❤️❤️❤️
We‘ve been saving this book to read together on our honeymoon (Coben is one of our favorite authors)!! We left this morning and have an 8.5 hour layover in Atlanta - prime reading time 🤣 We can‘t wait to get to Europe!!!! ✈️
No better time to read this than now! We leave in a couple days!! ✈️
panSeems like I‘m in the minority with this one...but this was a real rough read for me. I did not enjoy the writing style or connect with the characters. Honestly it would have been a bail if it was not a #lmpbc book. Mailing out tomorrow or Tuesday to you @BennettBookworm ! Hopefully you and @LiteraryinLititz will enjoy it more than me and @Mem_ugh !! 📖
Well, this was an easy pick for me since the others all sounded pretty awful, but I always enjoy a good WWII book, especially when they are based on a true story. Excited this was part of the #botm selections this month and can‘t wait to get it!
Our first fire in the fireplace looks so cool with the lights off that I had to switch from a book to the Kindle ... 🔥 📖
Congratulations on your milestone @Mowen036 and thanks for the opportunity to win this book. 😁🎉 It sounds like a good one!! 📖 #herfirstmistakeof10000litfluence
This is not a book that would normally catch my eye, but I‘m excited to read it along with my #lmpbc group!! I do love the cover though 😍 I get to use this amazing funko bookmark from @guinsgirlreads for the first time 😁 I know I‘m starting it late in the month, but I‘m hoping to finish it before we leave on our honeymoon May 8 so I can ship it off to @BennettBookworm 📦
so-soThis book started out as a pick for sure ... but it lost some of the build up for me near the end. It was predictable and a little too cheesy for me. I do enjoy the author‘s writing style and would like to read more by her! I will be mailing to you soon @minkyb and hopefully it arrives much faster than the last one!! #lmpbc
I read this series years ago, but I was looking for an audiobook that would be easy to follow while packing and moving...hopefully this is the last hectic weekend for us!! I was browsing through Libby and wanted to refresh this story 😁
