Welcome to Litsy!

This book was a trip. Not a happy one. A very dark story of a girl trying to find her family after the world ends and there are cannibalistic giants roaming the wasteland that used to be Earth. Loosely based off of the Odyssey. I probably would have enjoyed this more if the world wasn't so awful right now. 3.5 stars

New in! I'd honestly forgotten I'd made a #BookOutlet order. Whoops.

Anyone else ready for tea? I‘m brewing Rose All Day from David‘s Tea and it smells divine! Hoping to get some serious reading done today!
Strange the Dreamer is a reread and I‘m finally diving into Love in the Time of Global Warming by one of my fave authors that‘s been sitting on my shelf too long!
What are you reading and drinking this weekend?#booksandtea #tea

This one was just there. Nothing special. Had so much potential and just flopped for me.

A book that kept me reading! It has a beautiful dreamlike atmosphere with a hint of magical realism. I thought it was a really interesting look at Homer‘s Odyssey. And I loved the art history. #mythology #fantasy #magicalrealism #YA

Showing off my new book sleeve.

Ahhhhh after seeing a post by @jessica about Book Outlet's sale, I may have ordered a few books for myself....in addition to the other order I placed there earlier this week. 😬 I'm out of control with my books bought and books read ratio right now. I know most of you can empathize 😆

I really enjoyed this YA post-apocalyptic take on the Odyssey (that references the original text a lot) where queer and trans youth go on a quest that is informed and inspired by many great works of art and literature. It was a fast, fun read. I'm definitely going to check out the next book!

This book is a really fun read - a group of queer and trans youth on a post-apocalyptic quest!

Really enjoying this post-apocalyptic odyssey so far!

Saturday morning in my friend's beautiful garden. She weeds, I read. Perfection. (I will help eventually)

I'm on disc two and loving this. Julia Whelan is a narrating goddess.

tonight seems like a good night for a bedtime apocalypse story

Reading this book is like watching a movie painted by Rembrandt. There is so much rich attention to detail, you feel like you are right there, experiencing everything with Pen. Even though this book is so short, it took me ages to finish because I could live forever in every individual line. 10/10 ✨
