Alright, everyone. Did you fill out your Bookish Bingo Cards? Share your cards and link up your posts below!
Recap of the rules:
Each month we will upload a new bingo card. You download the bingo card and mark off squares as you read books each month. At the end of the month, we will post our own bingo cards. Link up your post or post your own bingo card in the comments.
The monthly winner will be the person with the most marked squares. None of that across, diagonal, up and down, corners stuff. Just the number of squares. Be sure to include the books you’ve read for each of the squares. Only books read during the current month count. You may use the same book to fill multiple squares. We’ll announce the winner the following month to allow everyone time to link up their posts.
Don’t forget about your bonus points! This month is: Book in a series is in the MIDDLE of the series!

Epic reading!
LYNN! Physical books are THE BOMB…and my house looks like one went off with all the books scattered about. HA! I still prefer reading a paperback or hardcover book over anything else. (And Just a Hat — FLOWERS?)
Thanks Julie & Lynn for doing this. I hope to start reading again this month.
Happy retirement and time to read again!!!!
Physical books weigh a ton, Kristine! And yes – multiple mentions of Shabbat flowers. And the ol’ Yellow Rose of Texas!
Awesome results, ladies! I would definitely have trouble with the physical book square, too. 😂 I hoarded physical books back in the 2010s, and now, I go for ebooks all the way. They’re just way more accessible, and I can read them in any position I like!
I haven’t unpacked my physical books from our last move that were in storage during our overseas move. So yea, very few physical books here.
exactly, Amy! And I always have one downloaded on my phone I already carry around!
