The Starless Sea | 
It‘s raining, it‘s chilly, I took a quiz for grad school and now I‘m getting cozy with this book. Absolutely loving this weather, we haven‘t had rain in many, many months since it‘s the desert and this is gorgeous and a relief!
pickAbsolutely beautiful. And do I detect room for a sequel? Yes, please!
It's November!! Where has the year gone!?! Here are my #Top6 prettiest covers for November 2019.

Went for a walk after finishing this book to think it over. I loved it, but I also feel that so many questions remain unanswered. #litsywalkers #read
so-soThis book was nowhere near as good as The Night Circus. It got bogged down in nonsense. The language and feel of the story were beautiful but I found myself having to force listening to it. I really enjoyed the beginning but from there it went downhill. ⭐️⭐️⭐️
pickThis book is bound to have a cult following! And if you have a jewelry Etsy shop let me know as soon as you start making bee, key, and sword necklaces!! I listened to the audio of this and it did not disappoint! But how could it, Bahni Turpin narrated part of it.
Only 60 pages in but I‘m absolutely in love with this book!

“His fingers start twitching immediately wanting to take [the book] with him so he can read it again... Having a physical response to a lack of book is not unusual.” Zachary, I can relate! #teachersoflitsy #speculativefiction #fantasy
hoping this is just what I need 🖤
Monday morning commute reading is still #thestarlesssea. It is a gorgeous book so far just like the cover. #dustjacketoff

Littens... @Cinfhen... I have failed you. I had hoped to have a book report ready yesterday, but instead I have this report/#weeklyforecast hybrid in its place tonight.
Due to a very busy week, there was little time for reading and that makes me sad... and a little embarrassed at my weak, slow progress... not to mention my inability to carve out time where I could!
I've got ambitious goals for the week. We'll see how I do.
I signed up for the budget-friendly #Jolabokaflodswap hosted by @MaleficentBookDragon.

What‘s on *your* Wish List?
Erin Morgenstern perfectly described me as an adventurer, if I lived back in the olden days. 😂
pickI literally just finished this book, and thus I really have no words to adequately express my thoughts about it! Phenomenal read, well worth the wait! I'm off to buy this the first chance I get. Erin Morgenstern is such a fantastic story-teller. I might even like this better than The Night Circus. If I could rate this 10 stars, I would.
Just getting started, but I believe this is truly a book for book lovers 💕
pickThis book is amazing. The writing was amazing. The story was captivating. I loved it.
Getting good! Part IV, 270 pages in. Flying through this 🙂 I also saw it at the store today, so I'm sure I'll be buying it for my shelves
pickThis was amazing! Magic, adventures, mysteries, and love stories. What more could you ask for?
pickReposting my review of my #arc to add to all the loves! https://www.librarything.com/work/22497127/reviews/173403932
Look at this beauty. I can't help myself from staring at it. The keychain is cute, it came with the signed book.

pickWell!! A truly ambitious book from a VERY creative mind! I don‘t think I‘ve seen someone juggle multiple storylines like that, tie them all together and NOT leave the story feeling jumbled. I enjoyed all of the storylines and how she tied them together. Her style is definitely poetic... lots of metaphors and it won‘t be for everyone. Not for the casual reader, but this was like a fantasy world for people in LOVE with books. ☺️
pickI have a new best book of the year. This book is amazing, and I have changed my vote on Goodreads for fantasy of the year (sorry, The Winter of the Witch).
My full, glowing review is on my blog: http://sprainedbrain.blog/2019/11/15/all-the-stars-for-erin-morgensterns-the-sta...

1. Barbies
2. Yes but Chinese jump rope was my favorite. I learned it when we lived in Korea.
3. Bugs Bunny
4. Apples
5. Hot lunch!! I think it was the Salisbury Steak and mashed potatoes. I‘m a teacher and so I ate and loved hot lunches until Michele Obama had the recipes changed.
6. School bus most of the time. When we lived in Missouri, I walked with my older sisters.

Started listening to this on my last flight. Enjoying it so far, and should get a lot more listening in since I don‘t think I will sleep much on my next flight even though it‘s a red eye.
Only 17 pages into this book and I'm already taking pictures of the text 🤣🤣
A reading major is EXACTLY what I wanted, but settled for an English undergraduate degree and LIS master's degree. I guess being a librarian is the next best thing to reading all day 🤣🤣

pickI cannot review this book in just the allotted characters allowed on here so these are my feelings on this book. Highly recommend.
So. This is possibly the most beautiful book I have ever seen. I most certainly hope the content lives up to its lovelines. Wow.
pickThis is truly just the most magnificent thing. A love story to stories. A fairy tale to fall into and remember why we fell in love with stories in the first place.
This will be my favorite book of the year. It's pure magic.
(1) I made Hungarian goulash earlier this week for the first time and nailed it! It was super yummy! ?
(2) "There is a pirate in the basement." Best opening line ever! I am really loving the tagged book so far! ??
(3) Snowy and so cold! It was only 9° yesterday! There's about 7 inches of snow on the ground! ⛄❄
Tagging any littens who want to play!
Thanks for the tag @DaveGreen7777 !! And thank you @MoonWitch94 !! ???
Who else is currently reading The Starless Sea? I‘m halfway through and loving it so much.
Look what came today!!! I‘ve had this on preorder since last December, The Night Circus has been my favourite book ever since it came out. I‘m really hoping it‘s not a letdown🤞I‘m not a huge fan of the hardcover colour, I was hoping for a blue one but you can‘t have everything. I‘m also ordering the black US hardcover plus the Waterstones exclusive hardcover edition of The Night Circus is coming this week too. Morgenstern mania!🐝🗝🗡🎪🎟
This is my most anticipated release of 2019, I'm so excited! I'm hoping for a really wonderful escape, I've been up all night so I could finish my current read (almost) to start this immediately.
I absolutely agree with this!
Although my opinion is already forming with this book, and it is that it is amazing!

And perfect timing because I just finished a different book today.
Found out yesterday that I have a sinus infection AND an ear infection. Thankfully after my bronchitis cleared up 🙄. I got some antibiotics so fingers crossed I'm feeling better quick.
Eek!!
My signed copy from Odyssey arrived today!
I can‘t wait to start this! So happy!!
pickI can't express fully how incredibly beautiful this was! Lyrically astounding and so magical with characters that felt so real it was as though I was reading about friends.
⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
I think I might be agnostopagan and belong to the same church as Zachary.🖤
I am loving this book!
Also, moonrise was no joke tonight. 😍
I went to Erin Morgenstern‘s event for her new book last week and it was amazing! I can‘t wait to read it!
pickIt's rare that I read an 18.5-hour book, let alone finish it waffling about whether I'd like there to be a sequel. (I really liked it! Will a sequel do it justice or fall flat?)
Been meaning to add this for days but life has been crazy. Managed to snag a copy of this beauty, which I will definitely be picking up after I finish my current book. I am so hyped!! #TheStarlessSea
#ErinMorgenstern #books #reading
This is my current read and I‘m actually really really enjoying it! Having a male main character is a nice switch up and the plot is unlike any other book I‘ve read before!
Well that‘s fast!! My hold jumped from 20+ weeks to available soon within a week!
