Welcome to Litsy!

Finished my second book for #24b42020 and another that had sat on my reading stand for a while.

There's a lot of nice thing to the story, starting with the nice cast of characters. But the plot dragged in so many places. Especially in the middle, there were quite a few unnecessary chapters, in my opinion.
I didn't favour the talky climax.

Not horrible, but not a pick either.

1. Tagged. I really needs to finish this. Have been on it far too long.
2. I'm still not sure. Probably one l haven't started yet.
3. Together with the awesome ladies of the #FellowshipOfTolkien l read all through The History of the Hobbit and The History of the Lord of the Rings. It was fantastic!

I was too optimistic.
I managed to get to 82% of the book, but it's midnight here. I'm turning in.

This is a frustrating books. There are so many good things about it, but the pace is all wrong.
Anyway. I hope to finish tomorrow.

Hadn't managed to read anything today, so fast. Let's see whether l can put in some reading for the #24b42020

I feel a bit like Apache about this book. The middle part was a terrible slog. But it seems to be picking up now.
Let's see whether l can finish this off tonight.

OMG this was such a great book. I really loved how the story unfolded and all the snark that is in this one. It was about witches and warlocks and it was so full of snarkyness that I just fell so in love. Snider brings to life a new world and amazing characters. I really loved Tum and Chester and would love a story about them on their own. Maybe they team up to grab spoils.

After a long pause, let's get back to this.

And now it's time for a friend's book, another ARC from Netgalley.
It's a fantasy, but apparently not really. Let's see.

There's a storm brewing. That might be the reason why, as an exception, Apache is curled up with me 😆

NGL I chose this book for its pretty cover. I hope this selection process doesn‘t burn me a second time. #JudgeABookByItsCover

Baby‘s first ARC to review from netgalley! This was a perfectly serviceable new adult fantasy about two witch sisters looking for their necromancer father but it never really drew me all the way in. The elemental magic system was interesting but the slow pace and the confusion of all the H names dragged it down for me. It was originally published serially on the author‘s blog, maybe the pacing felt better that way.
