Young Aly follows in the quieter footsteps of her father, however, delighting in the art of spying. When she is captured and sold as a slave to an exiled royal family in the faraway Copper Islands, it is this skill that makes a difference in a world filled with political intrigue, murderous conspiracy, and warring gods. This is the first of two books featuring Alianne.From the Hardcover edition.

Did more Library Reading than bookspin reading, so no bingo for me! But I did manage to finish the #bookspin (tagged) - at the last minute. I read the whole thing yesterday! Also managed the #doublespin - Convenience Store Woman.

Free Spaces were:
Bloodmarked - Tracy Deonn
Witchmark - CL Polk
Stormsong - CL Polk
The Professor and the Madman - Simon Winchester
The Heaven & Earth Grocery Store - James McBride

And here's my #bookspinbingo card! Interesting layout this month - I'm curious what I'll manage to get done. Tagged is the bookspin, and I'm satisfied that it's in line with Lireal - they feel like they might be a good reading duo.

Excited for the month's reading ahead! Trickster's Choice is a new to me book from a favorite author, and Convenience Store Woman is one that I'm going in with vague good vibes, but I know very little about.

Didn‘t realise I had doubled up on this one… guess I need to start looking for a copy of Trickster‘s Queen!

This book is about sixteen year old Aly who wants to become a spy in the service of her father. Her father wants her to live a safe life. Her mother returns after a long trip and Aly decides to go visit a friendly lord. However, she is captured by pirates and sold into slavery. Aly makes a wager to protect the four daughters of the Duke of the family. If she succeeds she will be returned home but if she fails she will be pressed into service

I rewatched Maleficent today as I‘m off to see the sequel with my little sister later - and I‘d kind of forgotten all about Diaval... which is a shame as the actor totally won me over in P&P & Zombies and well a crow/raven human hybrid does bring me back to this delightful book by Tamora Pierce! So this review (of sorts) made me laugh! (The reviewer is no fan of Prince Philip!)

Mehso-so

I love the Tortall series and how Pierce explores realistic political and social arenas of her geography, like the racial consequences of colonialism in the Copper Isles here, but the beginning of this book was too clunky and plot-driven instead of really getting into Aly and her character. As always, Numair and Daine are the best part of this book because SHAPECHANGING BABY!

Every reader has that one author or series who forever changed the way they encounter the reading world. Tamora Pierce is that author for me. Who was yours?

Found this today for $1...

I may have surprised my Mum with my loud squee of excitement but whatever 😎 I played it cool at the register! One of the few good things about weekend work (aside for catching up with Mum for brunch) is the chance to check out the op-shops for books!

Now I just need Tricksters Queen in the same edition ☺️🤓😜

LeeRHarry I love scouring the op shops too! Great find! 8y
Lizpixie Are you interested in joining our #litsygoesinternational book club? 8y
thegirlwiththelibrarybag @Lizpixie, what does it involve? 8y

thegirlwiththelibrarybag @LeeRHarry, it's in perfect condition too! Op shops are amazing indeed @LeeRHarry 8y
Lizpixie Everyone chooses a book and sends it along with a notebook to the next person in line, and receives a book and notebook from the person behind them in line. You read the book and write your thoughts etc in the notebook. When the times up you then send the book on to the same person and receive another from the same person as before. Your book travels through the whole group then you get it back eventually with a full notebook. It's a round robin. 8y
Lizpixie Every month you receive a book & send a book. It's being run by @ramyasbookshelf & @pppooraikul If you have any questions just ask them. The more the merrier! 8y
pppooraikul @thegirlwiththelibrarybag @Lizpixie is absolutely right! Feel free to ask anything. 😉 8y
thegirlwiththelibrarybag Are there any parameters for choosing the book you send? @pppooraikul 8y
pppooraikul @thegirlwiththelibrarybag The period a book stays with a person is approximately 1 month. (And it should take another month for shipping time.) So, the book should have a reasonable length and still spare some time for noting/reviewing. (Which means War and Peace is out of question!) It can be either fiction or non-fiction, though. And preferably paperback in order to keep the shipping price at minimum. 8y
pppooraikul @thegirlwiththelibrarybag Since we run internationally, it might be good to add some cultural aspects to the club. But we're still working on it. @Lizpixie If you have any idea of what you'd like to do, don't hesitate to share! ;) 8y
LeeRHarry @pppooraikul this looks interesting- still room for new members? 8y
thegirlwiththelibrarybag @pppooraikul, could be fun. How do I join? 8y
pppooraikul @LeeRHarry Yes, there is! Also, @thegirlwiththelibrarybag, if you want to join, you can email your name, city/country and your questions to me here: pimprapan1801@gmail.com. It might take some time for things to settle. After that we'll begin filling in the details, outlining the conditions and planning a solid schedule. 😊 8y
LeeRHarry @pppooraikul sounds great! 8y
