I didn‘t read either of my #bookspin or #doublespin books for May so I‘m reposting the same selections for June. ☺️

My #bookspin and #doublespin books for May are set. Looking forward to these.

Rainy days are made for reading. 📚🌧️

My #bookspin and #doublebookspin titles for the month of May.

Finished my April #doublespin book just in time! Happy to get this off my list ⭐️⭐️

This was my #bookspin book forApril. I found the characters to be unlikeable and did not enjoy the writing style. By the halfway point I was just skimming through it. ⭐️⭐️

Here are my #bookspin and #doublespin titles for April!

I just finished my February #bookspin title, better late then never! ☺️

Slow to start, I almost gave up less than halfway through. But since I am reluctant to DNF any book I pushed through and was pleasantly surprised by a wonderfully poignant second half. The writing is lovely and the descriptions of Cornwall itself are so vivid and add to the atmospheric nature of the book. I especially enjoyed reading about young Olivia during WWII. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Continuing with my numerous #netgally requests, here are my April #bookspin #doublespin titles 📚

When her daughter dies, Celine, a successful life coach throws her self into her work unable to deal with her grief. Her family stages an intervention that takes an unexpected turn and catapults Celine into an alternate reality of 'what if'. I'm a sucker for a pretty cover and this one is so gorgeous that I couldn't resist. A light, easy breezy read that lacked the tug at the heartstring moments I was expecting. ⭐️⭐️⭐️ #bookspin

School pick up reading today. Hoping to finish this one in time for the March #bookspin

Lulu is a successful psychotherapist, recently married to Nick. But Nick has a troubled past and as Lulu offers to help him face his childhood trauma, she uncovers a disturbing and frightening side to the man she loves. Fast paced thriller with a somewhat predictable story line. I was disappointed that the ending did not have the 'shocking twist' promised on the cover. Nonetheless entertaining and perfect as a beachy/one sitting read. #doublespin

School pick up reading on this gloomy, rainy day 📚🚗

My #bookspin and #doublebookspin books are set for March. Can‘t wait to get started on both of these.

📚March #bookspin #doublespin 📚

My husband and I had a little getaway in Paris over the weekend. I‘ve been wanting to visit the Shakespeare and Company bookstore forever and now I have! 💕 Bucket list ✅

This story of two suburban stay at home mothers had me hooked from the first few lines! It was a relatively short and fast paced page turner with unreliable characters and numerous twists and turns that had me constantly second guessing myself. A thoroughly enjoyable read. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for providing a digital copy in return for an honest, unbiased review.

Glad this one is off my list. Wasn‘t for me. ⭐️ #doublespin

My #bookspin and #doublespin titles for February are set. 📚Has anyone read these already? Thoughts?

My February #bookspin #doublespin selections are set. As with the past month, I‘m continuing to work my way through my massive NetGalley list.

Who would say no to creepy killer spiders, global Except for a variety of descriptions of how the creepy spiders are attacking and random relationship tidbits of the characters, nothing else happens. This book is part of a trilogy so the author naturally leaves something for the other books in the series, but for goodness sake you need to give the reader some story/character development. Disappointing. ⭐️⭐️ #doublespin

This slow burn thriller mystery, set in a gothic Italian villa with a mysterious true crime past was just what I needed to get me out of the reading slump that has plagued me over the last year. I enjoyed the dual timeline storytelling and the narration was excellent. This is the perfect beachy, vacation read. #bookspin

One Italian Summer was a light, breezy read perfect for a lazy day and easily finished in one sitting. I enjoyed living vicariously through Katy while she was exploring beautiful Positano and now want to visit the Amalfi coast even more than before! #netgalley

My hold finally came through so this is my weekend read 📚I‘ve heard great things! #thethursdaymurderclub #librarybook #ereader #booksleeves

I‘ve been working on new book sleeves for the Etsy shop but had a question for those of you who purchase book sleeves - what size sleeve to you most commonly buy? I offer 3 sizes: small (7 x 9 in), medium (8 x 10 in) and large (9 x 11 in). Thank you in advance for all your responses!

Last year was an abysmal reading year so to make sure 2022 doesn‘t turn out the same I‘m trying to force myself to read (or in this case listen to) 1 book a week. This is book #2 of 2022. The story seems good just don‘t know if I‘ll survive the narrator‘s voice and reading style. 📚🎧🤔

Eeeek! Book sleeve listings are live in the Etsy shop! With more to come! I would be grateful if you would take a look at etsy.com/ca/shop/MapleLeafStitching and come follow me on Instagram at mapleleafstitching 📚💕

Not exactly a book post but I have a question for all you wonderful Littens. I will be reopening my Etsy shop in the new year, selling padded book sleeves, fabric bookmarks and eventually other bookish related items. When searching for book sleeves or bookmarks, what words would you use in your searches? What are some keywords or tags that you would associate with these items? All your help is greatly appreciated! Thank you! 💕

Look at all the wonderful #PoutinePenPals #stockingswap gifts from @mcctrish 😍💕 Thank you so much! I absolutely love everything 💕 I can‘t wait to start the book and I have hidden all the snacks from my husband and children to enjoy when the house is quiet and they‘re all back at work and school. Thank you again and Merry Christmas to you and your family!

Thank you to my #PoutinePenPals for the lovely Christmas cards (and birthday card) and goodies 💕 So grateful to have you in my life! Merry Christmas! 💕 @ShelleyBooksie @TheLudicReader @DinoMom @FantasyChick @StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego

Merry Christmas to everyone in this wonderful Litsy community celebrating today! I wish you all a blessed and joyous day! 🎅🎄🎁💕

This may seem like a strange question but did anyone of you wonderful people send me this through Amazon? There‘s no note and I‘ve asked all my family and friends and none of them sent it. Maybe one of my #LitsyLove or #PoutinePenPals 🤷‍♀️🤔

Thank you to everyone for all the wonderful birthday wishes! 💕

My favourite place to be on a gloomy rainy day 💕📚

The Christmas tree is up and my #PoutinePenPals #StockingSwap gifts safely underneath. 📦🎅🎄

Reached an amazing milestone today! 1000 FOLLOWERS! 🎉🎉🎉 This Litsy community is awesome and I‘m so happy to be a part of it! 💕
