Thank you, for sharing your kind thoughts and reaction with me! I truly enjoy putting these together and sharing them socially with bookish and readerly communities. It gives me a lot of JOY to let books shine through my artistic #bookphoto collages! 🤗

Ohhh wow. I just read the premise of the story you're reading -- goodness! A Coup of Tea sounds awesome! I'm going to see if I can find the audiobook of it - found it via Audible - I don't believe I've read / listened to Gaslamp before either - 3x of these lovelies are released. Added it! 👍👏

I've been in such a reading rut lately - finally able to jump start my return by listening to a captivating audiobook called Half-Life Empire - the narrator is wicked good at giving me a wicked good listen with a character who is as spunky as she has snarkified humour! Laughs. Top cheers to us both!

#amlistening to the #audiobook narrated by Diana Richardson. She has the spunk, and the snarky humour of Kita nailed. Kita is living through an incredible moment in her life and this world is lethal just to survive! It is the perfect diversion for me and beyond engaging!

I was hoping you might have a new book coming out; I used to host your lovely blog tours with HFVBTs. It has been an age since I've dived into #HistFic and yours were always wicked wonderful reads of mine; I will definitely be seeking this out as I love the House of Saint Laurent💜🙌

I'm on @thewritereads.bsky.social #blogtour for Buddy the Knight and the Queen of Sorrow -- my goodness! I am full of reactions and takeaways which are being knitted into my review which will arrive on my #bookblog tomorrow! Definitely a keeper for #MiddleGradeFantasy This story is incredible!😍

Thanks for this!! 😍I'm quite literally dead on my feet lately from work and I never had the chance to even scope out the US release dates! 😒This gives me a good deadline - I am truly hoping to have read your first novel & the first #JinYong novel w/in the timeline of the new film releasing!🤗🙌

For new & hot #wuxia movie, watch out for #LegendoftheCondorHeroes, which is coming to US cinemas on FEB. 21. It's the newest adaptation from a classic novel by #JinYong.
For novels with #wuxiaxianxia tropes and vibes, try the #SwordMaidenfromtheMoon duology ( #TheHeavenlySword + #TheEarthlyBlaze ).

Or, feel elated that they felt they had to make an exception to that rule and include *11!* books which elevated the category and celebrated its merits! There are different ways of looking at that - and for me, I'm celebrating the fact *both!* your novels made the cut! 😍🎉

I've finally decided to take time out to write my End of the Year Survey for books read &/or partially read today; it has been a rather chill day free of work and just a relaxing into the hours to sort out thoughts/ruminations; plus, of course, looking ahead towards the NY too! Will read yours soon

In the beginning, I had to tilt my eyes up/down to see at the different ranges. After about three to four weeks, I started to notice I wasn't doing that as much - my mind/eyes were syncing faster and were making the adjustments to which range I needed & when automatically; unless I'm tired! 4/4

I sometimes forget to switch to the readers; but they help loads for reading long stretches of time whilst also I am hopeful will help with knitting, too, as it is for close work; I bought them as a pair on Zenni. I do know they don't always work for everyone but I was thankful they did for me. 3/4

range you can have for Progressives? Meaning, the lens themselves has the Progressive bits in a fuller scope of the glasses than usual. I figured I needed as much of that as I could get. Thankfully the price point was 75% less than my doctor's estimated cost! I also have a pair of readers, too 2/4

I've been in Progressive since January (of this year) - for me, I was worried my mind/eyes wouldn't sync but when I went back to work with them on for the first time - goodness! It was like my whole world opened up to me! I have a pair from Zenni Optical - where I took advantage of the fuller 1/4
