Welcome to Litsy!

I read She Who Became the Sun in one sitting. I was completely engrossed. I kept having to force myself to go back to He Who Drowned the World.

I'm not even sure what it was that I wasn't enjoying. It wasn't as tightly plotted as the previous book and there were pacing issues.

Selling my mystery books at a craft fair today. Started reading this in the low points. Got an hour left and it's completely dead so hopefully I'll get through a bit more!

This is my most anticipated December read. I keep putting it off because I enjoyed the first one at much and I'm scared it won't be as good

Characters weren't likable - they were morally grey. I really love that kind of characters. Like I said they weren't likable but I love to read about them xD

This was a dark and ugly story, but I loved it. I loved political plotting and betrayals.

This was a great story about people who had lust for power and oh boy how far they were willing to go! Reading this was like watching a train wreck.

I don't know what happened but I had to give up on this one. The shift in character of the main character was too much, and the story languishes far too long before getting anywhere. Disappointing because the first book was so good.

I loved the first book of this apparent duo, but I gave the audio 2 hours and I just can‘t get into this one. So, back to the library it goes!

Went to Fountain Bookstore‘s event for He Who Drowned the World by Shelley Parker-Chan, author Alix E. Harrow and audiobook narrator Natalie Naudus. The discussion was a blast: writing (and recording) in cubbards/closets, writing angry characters, and that Parker-Chan writes in Excel.
