Welcome to Litsy!

@Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks as you can see yes I love it and with slight changes in the books you‘ve read it gives you different shelves 😊📚

If you couldn‘t already tell from the excessive amount of tabs, I absolutely adored this book. I recommend this to anyone who is trying to get into scifi or even who doesn‘t like scifi. This is not your usual sci-if book that spends half of its runtime infodumping and using fancy words to describe technology. Action packed, hilarious, and most importantly fun. The characters were so vivid, especially Finian and Kal. It‘s become my 2nd fav book.

This was great and interesting I can‘t wait to read the next book in the series

As is often the case with setting up books of this kind, it took quite a while to introduce the characters and the world created, but the time put into that was very worthwhile. By the end of the book a great premise had been created to take forward in the rest of the trilogy. I look forward to getting to them. Excellent as an audiobook. #SeriesLove2023 @TheSpineView

Out of all the books that I've read that start with A, my favorite has been The Aurora Cycle. I even named one of my dogs Aurora lol.
What is your favorite book that starts with A??

Tough one right off the bat. Several good letter A's, including the entire Aurora Cycle trilogy. All three Aurora books could be in this spot.

This was funny. I loved the audio, performance was fantastic. As usual I wanted more of a build up between Kal and aurora. UT that YA. I do like how there was loss.

I admit to feeling mildly guilty after finishing this book. I strongly disliked Cat the majority of the book and now I feel guilty, I feel guilty! 😭

A fun YA sci fi book. It has quite a few YA tropes but I felt that they were handled well and added to the story rather than detracted from it

Looking forward to the rest of the series

This book exceeded all of my expectations and more. It was a fun and surprising emotional romp through and well developed and original futuristic space world full of the brightest and most lovable characters. The found family aspect was by far my favorite part.
And the ending!!!!

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ 1/2

Painted a simple little suncatcher while listening to Aurora Rising. I was on the fence about how I felt about this book at first, but the loveable characters have won me over. I think the narrators' excellent voices have made me enjoy this story more. I started out reading it and it was okay, but the audio is a delight!

13. Outer space

I finished this book yesterday. It‘s definitely full of aliens, space travel, powers and conflicts! Start of another great series by Jay Kristoff and Amie Kaufman. My local library has the 2nd book on the shelf so I am going to check it out just to see what it looks like. #21 #BookSpin #21 #AlmostAChunkster (473 pages) #BFC22 #SERIES2022 #Buzzwordathon #MarvellousMarch #Pantone2022ColourChallenge Dahlia #Galaxyathon

I went to the library to pick up a couple books I had on hold for book club and decided to look around while I was there. I might have gotten carried away. 😂📚

I finished my first #NewYearWhoDis book from @TheAromaofBooks list. This was a pretty decent book. I enjoyed the plot but I wished the characters were more developed. The audio production was excellent. It had a full cast. I rate it 3.5 ⭐

So much fun! These authors can do no wrong.
#pantone2022 #pop22 #popsugar - a book with a protagonist who uses a mobility aid.

Next read!

The authors of this YA book have definitely seen the original Star Trek series. There‘s Star Fleet Academy- I mean Aurora Legion- a military school whose graduates fly spaceships - they‘re good looking, super skilled and annoyingly hormonal.But the adventure is interesting so I have already started book 2 ( thanks to Kindle) I wish there was an OK rating in between Pick and So-so

Day 19: possession
How about a human girl who's possessed by an ancient entity????

I can‘t with this book! It‘s so good, I can see why my friend has recommended this book to me! It hit me with all sorts of feels and left me sobbing at one point! I would totally recommend it to anyone, especially people into sci-fi books! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My heart 🥺

There is no love in violence.

“Never underestimate the element of surprise.”

Just this page...

“Are you saying I‘m no good in a fight?”
“I am saying this is no time for diplomacy,” Kal responds
“Listen here, you pointy-eared, prettyboy jer-“

Humans are such fools.
Well meaning fools, sometimes.
But fools, always.

Enjoyed some #audiocrocheting this evening with Minerva 😊 I‘m getting sort of close to the end of the tagged book & want to keep going but I have to go to bed! 😭 #catsoflitsy

Getting in a bit of #audiobook time while Minerva prowls around the yard on this crisp October evening! #readingbuddy #catsofLitsy

Snuck one last book in for September last night. I was surprised at how quickly I was sucked into this story but I totally loved it!! The characters are fun and snarky but not perfect, the plot was intriguing, and the world-building explanations felt organic to the story. I'm excited for book 2 and super annoyed that book 3 doesn't come out until November!!!!

Day 8: nonhuman characters
I picked this because of my favorite nonhuman characters, Fin & Kal. Man I cant wait until I get the 3rd book in November! I'm ready!

Currently reading the 1st book in the AURORA CYCLE! 🪐☄️🛸🚀👽 I had been hesitant to read this because I was spoiled a character death before going into it 💀not to mention I just received Aurora Burning on hardcover and, well, let‘s just say the back cover has no consideration over people who don‘t wanna be spoiled. So IF YOU OWN AURORA BURNING ON HARDCOVER…DO NOT LOOK AT THE BACK!
Anyway I‘m loving AR so far… 37% through!

I'm gonna miss the draft. The Hadfield is disintegrating around me.

This books was very well written considered the number of POV‘s it‘s written from. I‘m a sucker for a good space adventure and this one definitely fit the bill.

I don‘t know what to say other than the fact that I absolutely love this book and NEED to read the next part of the series. So many emotions, so many great fight scenes, so many funny moments. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"We the Legion," he says.
"We the light," Scarlett replies.
"Burning bright against the night," we say in unison.

“Squad 312, forever.”

“A warrior might be all you were raised to be, Kal,” I say. “But it‘s not all you are.”

“Do moons choose the planets they orbit? Do planets choose their stars? Who am I to deny gravity, Aurora? When you shine brighter than any constellation in the sky?”

“Who wants to be normal when you can be interesting instead?”
