My youngest FINALLY found a book they're interested in. The problem is that it's the first Harry Potter novel.
I don't want them to read it, but considering this is literally the only thing other than Elephant & Piggie they're interested in I might have to roll with it.

29th Book of the Year
Of Kindness and Kilowatts by @susankayequinn.bsky.social
4.5 ⭐
This is the 3rd in the Nothing is Promised series. What I love is how family is one of the themes of the book. Yes, it deals with a climate crises, and I love the science behind it, but I love the people more.

Atomic Habits by James Clear
I normally don't read self help books, but I must say I needed to listen to this. It explained why I self sabatoge. Not because I want to, but because I don't have a good system in place to start.

I just remembered I planned on doing tea reviews for my tea advent calendar. Here are the reviews for the first two days.
Christmas Time: black tea w/ flavorings.
No flavorings. All black tea. Solid tea.
English breakfast: you know what this is.
Of course it's good.
Would I buy either? Yes.

First ever Brandon Sanderson novel and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I'd love to see more of these characters, but from what I saw announced I doubt I will. Man is a machine.

I love that I have living room kids. Even my youngest who LOVES being alone in their room spends hours in the living room.
I'm trying to be the best parent I can be, and it's stuff like this that proves it's working.

I wasn't and because of that I'm ashamed to say we popped my oldest's hand with a ruler when they were younger. That was horrific so we stopped. We weren't going to punish them for messing up. Hasn't been touched since, and my youngest never has been.

I prefer physcial books. Love a good hard cover but I LOVE a good floppy paper back. Next is E because I love being able to adjust the size of the font. Lastly is audiobooks.
What I've learned is some books I can only listen to. Some I have to read.

Let's talk about reading. Do you prefer physical books, audiobooks, Kindle/e-reader or some combination of one or more of the aforementioned formats?

I'm up to 231. Still nowhere near finished.
I'm cataloging all my books. So far, and I'm nowhere near finished, I have 180 books. This includes physical, e & audio. I'm not finished cateloging my audio books or physical books yet.
I'll check back in later.

I received unexpected money today, and of course, I'm getting more books. I have one book in my cart, but don't know what I want the second one to be.
I'm so annoyed!
