Welcome to Litsy!

Nope. Not sure if I‘ve read too many holiday stories or if the YA vibe of this one was the problem but just couldn‘t get into this one. Gave it a try but after 60 pages, I‘m just not feeling it. I do love the cover. #Wintergames #RestingGrinchFace

I didn't realize that this was YA going in. Normally YA doesn't bother me, I read a bunch of it. But I was really thrown by the characters' lack of maturity here. It was oblivious angst to the point of cringe. Not sure if it was the writing or just my mood but I held out until the switch took place but then had to bail

Book 151 of the year.

My 1st Bail of 2022. I'm trying to finish up my stack of Holiday Reads. To much Teenspeak and wasn't enjoying the shallowness of Obsession of Instagram Followers.

In it's defense if it was the 1st of December I might have slogged on.

Just can‘t get into this-the social media influencer character may just not be for me. Not interested in spending the time to finish it. #BookspinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

This was an adorable and sweet read! I didn‘t realize it was a young adult book until I started reading, but the story is enjoyable for all ages. I loved both Holly and Elle, as well as Elle‘s brother, Nick, and Holly‘s friends, Ruby and Fred. Learning about British holiday foods and traditions was fun too. I received the book in my Authentic Books holiday edition box, along with these other lovely goodies!

Cute and fun! #WinterGames2021 #TeamGameSleighers #AVeryMerryReadathon #Wintercosy #WrapItUpReadathon #ChristmasMyWay @TheSpineView @puddlejumper @keys_on_fire @DieAReader @GHABI4ROSES

If you‘re looking for a cute and sweet holiday read here you go! Very light read. #wintergames2021 #mistletoemaniacs #wintercosy 40 pts @Clwojick @PuddleJumper

This was so stinkin‘ cute, and I loved how—at least for a book where social media features so heavily—the drama wasn‘t overwhelming! I was concerned at the beginning though, that I might‘ve picked a book so hilarious it was functionally unreadable (who else cries when laughing real hard?!). Overall a 10/10 entry into the “we only read jolly YA(ish, at the least) for the holidays” mission.

It was ok but it just felt average to me.

Really enjoyed this one! 😄🎄📚 #mistletoemaniacs #wintergames2021 @Clwojick

Stating this and a little under half way done so far

Cold night in - that‘s literally what is here tonight. One of the coldest nights of the season so far!🥶 So that means cuddling up with a warm blanket, hot cocoa, and a good book.😆🎄📖 #mistletoemaniacs #wintergames2021
