Welcome to Litsy!

#thankfulthursday @Cosmos_Moon

1. Working from home with little interaction with my family and friends. We didn‘t spend any time with family over the holidays.
2. I‘m grateful that my baby boy is growing and wiggling away inside my tummy, a roof over my head, and my husband who thankfully knows how to fix a broken house.

Thanks for the tag @Eggs!

Want to play @Texreader

Mitsuha and Taki weren‘t meant to meet but met through a dream.

Really good!

I really liked it. Never really read any manga before. So it was nice to have picked one which I liked for the first one 😊

Got these from the library today.
I also want to watch the movie. Has anyone seen it?

Hoy me llevo conmigo a un muy bueno compañero de viaje ?? #bookcollection #manga #travel #summer

I am so excited to read this!!!😀

I‘ve joined SantaThing by LibraryThing and it is such a joy to be picking out books for another person! I hope my Santee enjoys the books i‘ve picked. And if you happen to be my Santa, thank you! 🥰

Not technically book related but:

I usually put on The Life Aquatic Sessions (100% Portuguese David Bowie covers) for my students to listen to when they work on Friday Brain Teasers, but today I put on the Your Name soundtrack and thought I would share the wonderful.

Happy Friday. Enjoy.

Finally gotten round to a light novel.
Hardcover light novels are so pretty

My Fearless Era 👸✨

I love reading all your fantasy titles...and then I stumbled across this gem, which is an autobiography title generator. If you want, follow the script and comment your autobiography title below!

The Throne of Wolves and Dust🐺✨

I love these, and I came across this one today, so if anyone wants to know their “fantasy title” follow the script. I‘d love to know!

Light novels

The feels... They burn!

4 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

All the physical books that I read in August! Not shown are two Kindle books. Most of these were 3.5-5 star reads too! 😃😃😃

Haul 8 of 10!! The manga were preorders and they are positively GORGEOUS editions!! The light novel, Your Name., was sent to me for review purposes, and it's positively fabulous so far! Although I can tell my emotions are gonna be all over the place by the time I get to the finale. 😭😭

I received this recently for review and I can't express how excited I am to be able to read this. Unfortunately, I have not seen the film yet. But I absolutely adore Makoto Shinkai, so I have high hopes for it. 💙 It's a story about a boy and a girl who are experiencing one another's lives via a unique means.

Manga day

Since I can't find it with subbed or dubbed, I guess I can start on the Manga.
Bring on the feels!

Double love this Saturday! I love my weekend viewing of #DragRace! Anyone else watch?

Also anyone who loves Miyazaki go find and see 'your name'. The movie was utterly fantastic! So beautiful and takes you on a mind bender! I got my hand on the light novel and I'm excited to see how it translates!

So I'm about to finally see my favorite movie ever on the big screen. I've so far only been able to watch torrented versions on my computer so I am so excited that it's finally in US theaters. I love this movie with all my heart. Even people who don't watch anime can appreciate the magnificence of this movie. Check to see if it's playing in your area. It's called Kimi No Na Wa (Your Name)

This Japanese animated film was my first Makoto Shinkai movie but definitely won't be my last! Beautiful storytelling with gorgeous scenes set in rural and urban Japan, I enjoyed every bit of this young adult film where a teenage boy and girl swap bodies. The humor was perfectly balanced with the overarching theme of longing, and wanting and searching for something just out of your reach. Highly recommended👍🎬
