Welcome to Litsy!

The 5th yr in a row that I‘m reading this at the beginning of the yr. I‘m not much of a rereader so that saying a lot. There‘s not much text in this one, but I absolutely love Lisa Aisato‘s illustrations and how she‘s reusing them to create new stories.

This is the 4th year in a row that I start the year by reading this book and that is saying a lot since I‘m not much of a rereader.

I love the illustrations in this book and that is basically why you read it. A book about the different stages in life with very little text but full of beautiful illustrations

#BookReport for the first week of the new year

I continued reading The Christmas Chronicles

I‘ve started A is for Arsenic: The Poisons of Agatha Christie

I finished Stories from the Tenants Downstairs, read All the Colors of Life and I‘m currently reading Shrines of Gaiety

#WeeklyForecast

I want to finish Stories from the Tenants Downstairs

I want to continue with The Christmas Chronicles and get a start on A is for Arsenic

All the Colors of Life have been my first read the last years and I want to get to see early this year too

After that, we‘ll see. I got a new series for Christmas andI want to get started on that. I also have a lot of library book out.

This is the third year in a row that I start the year by reading this book. I just love it. A celebration of life in all its stages through beautiful illustrations.

I guess every Litten can recognize this - being young and discover new worlds through reading

My local bookclub reads based on a monthly topic. March was “a color in the title”. These were my reads. We had an interesting and diverse mix of books chosen.

What book would you suggest with a color in the title?

I absolutely love this art book/ collection that @AnneCecilie recently posted about and I immediately ordered. I could post every one of these amazing paintings. The writing is uplifting, not quite a story, not really a poem, more of a wish for the reader?

If your library has this, check it out. If not, request they get it. Or just buy it if art books are your jam.

Thanks Anne for making me aware of this one!

This is the third time I start the new year by reading this as my first book in the new year. I absolutely love it. The illustrations are amazing and all the other superlatives.

No I‘m just happy that it has finally been translated into English so everyone else gets the opportunity to read is as well

What a stunningly beautiful meditation on life! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
