Welcome to Litsy!

I'm making pocket libraries from old Altoids tins. More books fit inside than expected! Top row is mini book recommendations with details about each book and the second shelf has small versions of the first 10ish pages for each. Next is finishing the insides and decorating the outsides!
The glue warped my books and now they don't stay put well, so I'm going to try gluing them to card stock or something unless anyone has suggestions? #LitsyCrafters

Back from my holidays and can I just say a MASSIVE thank you to @Kenyazero for recommending this book to me! Just finished book three last night and I am absolutely hooked!

Today for my #bookshelftour I'm showing you the #nightrunners series by Lynn Flewelling. Some books are missing because they're in my #tbr pile. Anyway, it's a fantasy series about two spies and it's got LGBT+ rep. I personally love this series and can't wait to continue reading it

At #LitsySummerCamp today, we're wondering what our favorite literary characters would do at camp. I'd say in addition to generally enjoying the rest, Alec would show off his archery and hunting skills, and Seregil would orchestra some under the table gambling even if he had to teach everyone Bakshee himself.

For the #CuriousCovers building prompt, I found a favorite book with the side of a building on the cover!

June 4: Today's #LGBTQbook is a longtime favorite of mine. I've read the series twice and love it as much now as my first read. It's a fantasy that features a male couple, some frightening and beautiful magic, and vivid characters. I've enjoyed Lynn's other work as well, and highly recommend it. #lgbt #lgbtq #fantasy #lgbtqfantasy #pridemonth2020

A re-read, and always a fav. A nice big city, swords and horses universe, with magic and necromancy and mythic races and thievery and Valor and two bi/pan protags who come to care for eachother at just the moment where they're each gonna need an unbelievable amount of support to survive the magics and political machinations. #queerbooks #queerfantasy #epicfantasy

This is one of my favorite fantasy series. The characters are very well developed, and the plot has some surprises and many fun breadcrumbs. #lgbt #lgbtq #lgbtfantasy #lgbtliterature #trauma #grief #lgbtcharacter #queerbook #queerfantasy

One of my favorite fantasy series of all time. 😍😍 I'm rereading the whole thing then I'll read the Tamir Triad for the first time. I love this world and the characters and going back to it feels like going home. 😘

I don't think I've enjoyed a book as much as this one in a long time. The character development in this is fantastic. I feel like I actually know what makes these characters tick, even the minor ones. The action sequences were non-stop and I never felt lost or confused about the plot.

This book wan given to me by a friend at least 5 years ago because he loves the author and I have not read it yet. Yikes. Love having friends that give you books they want to share and who don‘t guilt trip you when it takes awhile to get to them. #🍀#emojinov

The Nightrunner series is one of my favorite fantasies! Spies, intrigue, magic, romance, and war all woven together in the best of ways! #shadows #feistyfeb

#Booktober day 18 #FavouriteFriendships Though I'll admit I thought about the Harry Potter books (who didn't?), my favourite friendship is between Alec and Seregil in the Nightrunner series. I think that's also my favourite romance, in part because they do start out as friends. And because they're awesome and I have a mad crush on them both. @RealLifeReading

An adult fantasy book with a LGBT lead character haven't read it yet but excited to give it a go. Most fantasy books I pick up end up having straight male leads and while I enjoy them I'd love some recommendations for adult fantasy with LGBT protagonists, help me out Litsy? :)

Excited to see an all-book social media app at last! Thought I'd start by sharing some old darlings. These are some of my all-time favorite books, but I don't reread very often, so they'd been packed away when I was short on space. So glad to have them back! 😍 What books will you never get rid of?

An incredible book and a fantastic start to a fantastic series. I love when I go back to reread this series and pick up this book again. Each time I read it it's like going home.
