Welcome to Litsy!

Thanks for my #SummerSantaGoesPostal box @Lidia - it‘s perfect! The books are amazing (I‘ve been meaning to read the tagged book for like a year 😂), and the bookmarks are beautiful.

Aren‘t these covers just gorgeous 😍

Not as sharp or bitter as the first book, and missing the flair of its setting, however it still tells an achingly painful story while throwing enough new twists to the story to keep me racing to the end.

On with the sequel!

I'm not crying you're crying. My only regret is that the next book hasn't been written yet.

My currently reading/ to read in the coming weeks pile. Earlier in the year, I made the resolution that I wouldn't read any more novels by straight white dudes this year. (Comic books get a pass, but I'm definitely also trying to read more diversely there as well). As you can see, it's coming along well! (Also, Armistice continues to wound my heart every couple of pages)

Okay so I'm now about 100 pages in, and basically every conversation anyone has makes my heart ache. The subterfuge is great too, but man this book /hurts/.

Aaaaaaa I'm so ridiculously excited to start reading this. The first one is one of the best books I've read all year, so I can't wait to get stuck in.

Loved it and can‘t wait for the next book. Read Amberlough now if you have not! Cordelia and Aristide are my faves!

Wandering around Amazon books

Newly acquired and I can‘t wait to read it. I LOVED the first book, Amberlough.

Well, this ripped my beating heart right out of my chest.

If Amberlough was about losing the fight, then Armistice is about the ache of an aftermath. It's where the country you've lost and the love you've lost overlap, and everyone is trying to put the pieces of their life in some kind of order when all of the sacrifices they've made have been rendered pointless. It's every bit as good as Amberlough, but very different.

I treated myself to this on Tuesday, the date came out, because I had a dentist appointment and I knew it wasn't going to be pleasant. As it happened I got sick the night before and couldn't go. I note that the first book in the series, Amberlough, is a Nebula finalist.

Look what came in the mail today!!!!! 😍
