Agreed. I know I owe some reviews to get my rating up higher, and I’ve still been approved for some ARCs. I’ve been more selective, though so I don’t overwhelm myself.

Jesus was here

That’s reassuring news.

This wonderful! Can I be a part of this as well?

Just watched the series finale of Vera. 😢

I’ve been on a cleaning spree for the last two weeks. I’m working on establishing a better routine as I’ve not always been the tidiest or most organized. What are some of your daily habits to minimize clutter?

I know it’s Christmas Eve & there’s lots to do, but I really want to ignore everything for this audiobook! Thanks Macmillan Audio for my ALC of THE LOST HOUSE by Melissa Larsen. I’m also excited that Saskia Maarleveld is narrating!

Some rare good news out of Arkansas & a big L for Sarah Huckabee Slanders 👏👏👏

Absolutely…

Finished reading Like Mother, Like Mother tonight & it has me feeling a bit emotional. I’m looking forward to discussing this at book club tomorrow.

This season of GBBO has been my favorite in a while. All the contestants were brilliant.

Richard Osman can do no wrong! Here’s my review of WE SOLVE MURDERS. www.instagram.com/p/DChMs8gRyJ... #audiobook @prhaudio.bsky.social #review

The answer is always, yes!

Congrats!

I know that’s hard to do but it’s a good start!

My virtual book club’s pick for November. Enjoying it a lot & finding some good quotes, too.

Eldest has me addicted to Criminal Minds.

😂 That’s probably the wiser plan!

I think it’s time to reorganize my bookshelves & do another purge. Painful but necessary.

Best thing I’ve read this morning! 🤣

Me, too!

So what’s everyone reading right now? I’ve got Lies and Other Love Languages by Sonali Dev (ebook), How to Stop Time by Matt Haig (physical) & The Blonde Identity by Aly Carter (audiobook).

I read intermittently throughout the day, and mostly early in the morning and at night. I generally prefer quite or white noise in the background.
