Welcome to Litsy!

I‘m planning to gift this book to my 7-year-old this year... mainly because he‘s a great reader ready to move on to middle grade books, but also because I want to read it myself. 😂

My son and I both really enjoyed reading this one for bedtime. We can't wait to start the second in the series.

I'm seriously overwhelmed by how much I love the artistry of this book. The illustrations, style, story... this is such an enjoyable middle grade read that can be appreciated at any age!

I received a copy of Warren the 13th and the Whispering Woods from Goodreads but thought it would be best to start with book 1! It has gorgeous illustrations and is a super fun story, so far!!

Another stumble upon! This is why I need to NOT go to my favorite children's bookstore too often!

This week has been crazy busy! My work hosted it's annual Donut Dash 5K. Let me tell you...putting on a 5k for 600 people is a ridiculous amount of work. I can't imagine how much it work it takes to do the big ones!!! However, I'm a little sad it's over! This week also was very productive in regards to getting a ton new books! I'm so excited for this one, but it's not even what I'm most excited about, which is saying something!!

Happy #fridaythe13th! Check out my new #bookreview at www.theirregularreaderblog.wordpress.com, featuring Warren the 13th! This book was super fun to read, and I love the artwork!

So much fun. Love the graphics, the puzzles, the mysteries. Am thoroughly enjoying this red & black book. Perfect for everyone! @QuirkBooks looking forward to more adventures. "Warren the 13th tiptoed across the roof of the Warren Hotel, and the old slate tiles clattered like bones." #FirstLine

What an epic story, full of magic, mystery, and adventure. The pace is fast, with something happening on almost every page, full of twists and riddles and codes. Top-notch quality writing with rich vocabulary and beautiful phrasing. This is the kind of book you feel good about giving your kids; a book you keep on your bookshelf for years and years. And the incredibly detailed illustrations are the icing on the cake. Such a fun read!

My next #flashreadathon read is this fun, strange, and mysterious middle grade novel. The illustrations are just great!

A great Halloween read!

What a fun book! An old hotel, witches, a mystery, and puzzles to solve! So excited this Middle Grade book will have a sequel out soon! It's part novel, part graphic novel, and full of imagination. Pick this one up!

Warren the 13th is about as spooky as I get. It does have echoing halls, ghosts, witches, monsters... 😜 -- The book is gorgeous: beautiful illustrations and excellent book design.

2nd book of the #readathon finished.

I've only been on litsy for a few days so I don't have too much for the "blame it on litsy" themed photo. so here are my bookish photos from the past few days. #septphotochallenge #somethingforseptember

Avast ye lily-livered scoundrels! It's Talk Like A Pirate Day. What's your favorite sea-worthy read?

I would call this lemony snicket meets the grand Budapest hotel as directed by Tim Burton. I am really loving middle grade lately and I just loved the whole aesthetic of this title.

I saw the back of this book first and even though I said I wouldn't check any more books out of the library I had to break my promise.

I'm combining my #TBRTuesday and #somethingforsept posts. Three of these books are my unfinished reads from #biblioweekend. I'm really loving all of these so I'm jumping between them. I haven't started And the Trees Crept In yet, but I'm hoping to this week. Now I'm going to my reading spot with Warren the 13th and a cup of pumpkin spice tea. I'm determined to pretend it's fall weather even though it's still in the 100-degree range here. 😄

So I keep saying I'm going to slow down on the book buying, BUT the library had a book sale today (stack on the left) and I caved at the bookstore (stack on the right). However, 5 of the books from the bookstore were discount books so there...that's something. At least I'm telling myself that it makes a difference. 😄

I've already started Scary Out There for my horror-themed #biblioweekend. I'm loving it so far! Really great selections!

@RealLifeReading #somethingforsept September Photo Challenge Day 2: I only have a few with numbers, and I'm a bit late since it's Saturday here already. I loved Warren the 13th, am reading the short story collection, and haven't read the Pynchon yet.

It's time for #translationtuesday. Do you know which languages these Warren the 13s are in?

I've been reading this book aloud to the kids on the road trip. We've all been enjoying it. It's the right amount of spooky mystery for us. Thanks to #netgalley for this one!

Reading this #quirkbooks read tonight. Love this fun, creepy MG read.

I surprised myself with how much I enjoyed this Middle Grade. The illustrations work perfectly with the story and come together to tell a beautiful adventure

So wild and imaginative, and the illustrations are amazing.

Bring Warren to your house for the holidays. Great gift for Middle Grade fantasy readers.

Well done @quirkbooks! Just saw the book trailer on Shelf Awareness and feel I'll have to read it before giving it to my nephew 😃. Check it out here-- https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=GLjLZaNQ2fc

Grand Budapest Hotel for the middle grade set!

Great book for Middle Graders who love secrets, puzzles and codes!
