So an American Pope in Rome. And he has a degree in science. Interesting #worldreligion #conclave2025

I received rebel fire from Librarything. Yes I like reviewing books I do so here, on my blog/tumblr, via Librarything when it's a review copy, and now via bluesky. #wondrouswednesday

Just received my replacement copy of rebel fire yesterday! Now I have to step reading the tagged :)😎 #arcs

Owww...forgot to bring my seat cushion with me to work the election. Folding chairs are evil, so is the paper ballot system. Hopefully by next time it will be digitized. #canadavotes

Starting in on this. It's gonna be good. It's always good when they start with maps. #fantasy

Take 3 is going well!

15/100 for me. Let's I've been meaning to get around to. Join in if you haven't played yet.

My score: 25%
My least favorite is the tagged. I tried and failed to read that damn book 3 times because it was attached to a scholarship. That woman's writing and I just do not get along! @Lauredhel @Eggs @LeahBergen join in if you want to. Link on @dabbe 's post

I DNF'd this after 20 pages. The first story features bestiality and rape. The second one features bdsm, veering into actual abuse and I think vampirism. I didn't find anything about these stories erotic, or well written.

#sundayfunday worse than movie tie in covers for me are when there is a sudden change in cover design midway through a series that I'm buying.

Yes I was. I was such a reader that by the time I left elementary school I had read everything in the library, even the encyclopedia. In high school I struggled with certain aspects of math.

#two4tuesday
I crochet, watch movies and shows, I have great set up on blue sky for interest based feeds. Right now I'm keeping up with American Idol.
I recommend reading something fluffy.

I'm going to give anyone who participated in #yuletidereads a few weeks to get their reading tallies posted. After that I will announce the short story winner. Be sure to tag the challenge and me in your posts. #readingchallenge #litsy

Not my thing at all.

It's finally snowing instead of raining!

Strike is very over as of Tuesday. No new mail until Thursday. Meaning hold onto it until then. #canada #canadapost #mailstrike #swaps #litsyswaps

Right about now, I would love some Snow. It's been a rainy winter so far which is not at all usual.

The tagged represents being cozy indoors, since that's how I listen to it. #two4tuesday

12 days until #yuletidereads begins! See original post for details! #readingchallenge #tbr

1-- I am flying through the tagged book.
2-- my tree skirt is nearly done.
3-- my #auldlangspine reads are easy to track down.
4-- #bluesky is starting to get more lively.
5-- I'm enjoying rewatching Rizzoli and Isles, as well as CSI and The Closer/Major Crimes.

My #AuldLangSpine reading choices so many to choose from!I will be starting January with these two! As much as I have enjoyed Holly Black, I'm just not in the mood for her vibes. @LeafingThroughLife have you decided on your selection(s)?

Progress update on my tree skirt. It's almost finished. Measures at 11.5 inch radius, done when it hits 15. #crafting #craftersoflitsy

USPS has announced they will stop accepting all mail and packages destined for Canada until our postal strike is resolved. #postalstrike #canada #usa #canadapost . If you are doing #swaps #litsyswaps of any kind involving Canadian recipients please make alternate arrangements and alert you hosts.

Both, snowman, neither, neither, HOLIDAY MOVIE, both, both, in store. #thisorthat

I don't really have favorite songs. My favorite artists are Cher, Nickelback, Kansas, Boston, Ambrosia, Taylor Swift, and Arrogant Worms. My top is Faun.
My current read is most like the song taking care of business by Bachman-Turner Overdrive

I'm all signed up for #auldlangspine .

Take 1 on tree decor. Tons of lights and rose gold orbs with gold accents, gilt snowflakes, and white glitter icicles (not pictured).

#saturdaychatterday

Pulled my Christmas tree out and have set it up. No lights or ornaments yet. Not planning on cards this year unless the postal strike wraps up soon enough. No swaps either. Am getting organized for my reading challenges, including the one I run. Also putting finishing touches on my sister's birthday present.

Finished making my personal storygraph trackers for #frozensick and #frigidwoe .
