Literary Friday ya’ll..

Well as I write this, this is my first time to use the new WordPress Block Editor and I really am not liking it so far- maybe because it’s taken me 2x as long to get this post going because I have to figure out where everything is.

And how is your Friday going?

ICYMI at Traveling With T: A Good Marriage, The Collector and Blindsighted.

2. Have you read A Good Marriage?

Yesterday I reviewed A Good Marriage by @kimberlymccreight- an audiobook I purchased for my walking 🚶‍♀️ time. . . First, George Newbern just needs to narrate more books. There, I said it. I love his voice. I wish he had a bigger role in this book- but I enjoyed his part. . . A Good Marriage is a good book- maybe not as good as Reconstructing Amelia ( but really- that Book was basically perfection!) and I recommend you get a copy- either paper or audiobook! . . #travelingwithtreads #travelingwithtbookreviews #agoodmarriage #genxbookstagrammers #oneworldreaders #mississippibookstagrammers #msbookstagrammers #readreadread📚

How my September was reading wise… . . Did you read any of these books? If I Disappear is a 2021 book ( just FYI) . . #travelingwithtreads #genxbookstagrammers #oneworldreaders

4. #FridayReads: One By One by Ruth Ware.

5. I LOVED The Collector- have you read it?

Today I reviewed The Collector by @norarobertsauthor & narrated by @justjuliawhelan. . . I loved this book- loved Lila & Ash. And LOVED that the cat was named Thomas ( because I used to have a cat named Sir Thomas!) . . From my review: “Lila and Ash. I love my couples to have some push and pull in them- to be attracted, but to not be all ooey-gooey in love immediately. To not be afraid to disagree! They pulled it off so wonderfully!” . . Have you read The Collector? . . PS: like my book sleeve? Got it from @bookbedsboutique . . #travelingwithtbookreviews #travelingwithtreads #thecollector #noraroberts #audiobookstagram #audiobooksofinstagram #juliawhelan #readreadread📚 #genxbookstagrammers #oneworldreaders #mississippibookstagrammers #msbookstagrammers

6. I realized the other day that I never did finish the Up and Vanished podcast about Tara Grinstead and so I started listening again from the beginning. Such a good podcast.

What are you reading this weekend?

Happy Reading and Bookishly Yours,

T @ Traveling With T

I’ll have to check out that podcast now that I have a longer commute. I’m reading Zero Bomb by M.T. Hill this weekend.

T, I am happy to see Literary Friday! ❤️ You know, I was working on blog posts last night, and I kept mine in what is supposedly the classic editor. It is not. Things are still moved, it is extremely slow processing, and it took me forever. It was so frustrating I considered giving up blogging the entire time I worked on my posts. There was no reason for WordPress to force it on us and I’m not happy. But I AM happy it’s the weekend, and I hope you have a great one! Xo

  Jen, OMG, I know. I hate that WP just did all this. Ok so I found the classic editor in the “block” choices and at least it’s more like how I used to blog (but sometimes it’s like it wants to swap to the block editor) and I’m feeling better- but trying to get this Lit Friday post was making me sweat bullets. And maybe one day when I have time I’ll want to check out the new features- but NOT NOW. I just want to blog,
  
  I went out to eat with my parents tonight and I treated myself to French Fries 🙂

    Yes, I’m using the classic editor, but it isn’t the same. They changed where everything is and you are right- it keeps wanting to swap you over. I have to toggle back and forth between the app and web version to make a single post. So ridiculous, and I like my posts simple, so I will never check out the new features. 😂 I’m glad you had a treat! You have been working it! ❤️

    I don’t have the app on my phone- I just blog from the laptop- but I hate you are having so much trouble. The past couple of times I have blogged- I’ve gotten into a bit of a groove with it I think (STILL like how everything was BEFORE).
    
    Yes, I did deserve a treat. And they were delicious 🙂
