Welcome to Litsy!

Clem & Cris are twins dealing w/ untold troubles: the death of their father, their mother sick, their family reputation lost, & a widening gap between them. When they learn that something else may be behind that, they‘ll have to work together to figure it out.

W/ unnecessary POV chapters, uneven pacing, & too many characters, I wasn‘t completely sold. But I was fascinated by the sibling relationship & the magic system through the end.🌕🌕🌗🌑🌑

It‘s time for yard work! #AudioGardening

Articles are a great way to get away with expository info dumps 😅

Day 5 - Blood - welp guess what Libby did, sent me another chilling book from my holds. Blood Debts is suppose to be a thriller with magic, creatures, curses, secrets, and injustice. Let‘s see where this book takes me. It‘s been on my TBR. Libby decided day 5 would be a great day to tell me.

This title will be available in April and it centers around a mystery of a 3 decades old massacre involving a prominent magical family. Secrets, magic, New Orleans setting and conflict between magic families and non magic families. Whilst the story has a whole lot of potential it's a soft pick due to pacing issues. 🌟🌟🌟1/2 read.

I'm not sure if it's bc I read this while I was in a reading slump but I only semi-enjoyed it. I felt like it dragged, esp at the start. Still, I really enjoyed where it went and was even wanting more by the end of it.

No sé si es porque estaba en un slump pero se me hizo que el libro estaba muy largo, esp al principio. Pero también me gustó el final, ya cuando las cosas iban desarrollandose

この本スタートが遅い、でもこの話は面白い。それはアメリカ人向け重要な歴史が持ちます。私は興味がある。

A Voodo-inspired magic system, queer Black boy love, & messy family drama intertwine in this older YA urban fantasy. In the wake of suspicious death & illness in their family, twins Clement & Cristina struggle to solve a decades-old murder that cost their grandmother her throne. Some challenges for me: messaging around violence and vengeance, pacing, length, and ultimately not seeing the parallels to injustice in our world as clearly as intended.
