Welcome to Litsy!

Guess I am a Book-Dragon.🐉

The final tally says 445 books read. Not including the 8 I DNF'd. My goal was 250.

I took part in 10 #BuddyRead and 1 #ReadAlong on StoryGraph

Please ignore pages and hours on StoryGraph, they aren't correct. I was too lazy to enter the correct editions I was reading.

I finished the #52bookclub24 challenge for the first time!!!

I had serious doubts in November but had more reading time during winter break and finally managed to complete the 52nd prompt today 🎉
I enjoyed the challenge and read many books that I wouldn't have picked up otherwise. At points, however, it felt like a chore, and I am relieved that from now on I'm free to choose whatever I feel like on impulse.
Thanks for cheering me on, it was great to share this adventure with you!

In this Inspector Alleyn mystery, Alleyn investigates a grisly murder that happens during the performance of a ritual English folk dance and mummer's play to celebrate the Winter Solstice.

I'm using this for my final prompt of #52bookclub24, “Set during a holiday you don't celebrate,“ and with this, I've completed my 2024 challenge!

#Two4Tuesday

1) I always start my Xmas movie viewing with White Christmas and have 7 (?) that I watch every year.

2) Not counting #WinterGames books I want to read Fourth Wing and Rock, Paper, Scissors to complete #52Bookclub24 challenge.

A light pick for this book about a young man with a certain set of skills who became a master art thief. It was a fairly slow but interesting read. 3.5 🌟

This was just ok for me. Interesting enough to keep me reading but I wasn‘t wholly invested. 2.75 🌟

Not my favorite of the series but I always enjoy my time in Botswana with Precious and her community. 3.5 🌟

Allison is surprised to learn that everyone at her ex-boyfriend‘s funeral doesn‘t know they had broken up. Keeping the secret she helps his family and best friend clean out his apartment. For a romance it also had a heavier tone due to Allison‘s health. 3.5 🌟

My next 4 books for #52bookclub24 ; another great reading month.

Két feleség (Two Wives, not in the Litsy database) included two thought-provoking novellas about love, desire, and the ghosts of the dead haunting living couples. My first book from this author (Sándor Bródy) but definitely not the last.
