Welcome to Litsy!

Oh! I didn't know this was an #lgbtq title! Or maybe I did when I requested it xD I ended up really enjoying certain parts of this book, like Karis being #ace, Alex's growth (tho it was sad too), Karis's choices, the realness of consequences, and so much more :D that said, sometimes the pacing felt a bit meh for me. That's probably why I was like HMMM what to rate it?? I ended up giving it a 3.75 SG and 4 GRs #fantasy #pirates #friendship #family

I'm seriously loving this novel 🩷🌈👑.

Happening upon wholesome A-spec representation has been my favourite part about reading this book so far! This quote especially made my heart warm and happy 💜🤍🩶🖤.

There‘s a lot going on in the life of Lou, a teen of Métis heritage who lives on a farm in Saskatchewan and is working at the family ice cream shack for the summer. Author Jen Ferguson (Métis) does a fine job incorporating complex issues like queer sexualities; violence against women & girls; class privilege; racism; & self identity. Audio is narrated by Julie Lumsden (Métis) & cover art is by Kim Stewart (Métis). #Indigenous #LGBTQIA #Ace #YA

An accessible and thought-provoking book that shares ace perspectives on feminist politics, disability, race, consent, relationships, and more. I thought the mix of Chen's personal story, those of other aces she interviewed, and her more academic writing on the topics worked really well. The observations that hit me the hardest were those about feminist attitudes to sex, consent and sex in relationships, and rape culture. Recommended!

*Ace pride alert* 💜🤍🖤 This book has everything: a sentient rock that is somehow extremely compelling, angry gardener droids, statues that may or may not be housing a dark side spirit, and an asexual stoner Han-Solo-type. And I'm only half way through! #ace #asexual #starwars

I really liked this book, liked both Alice and Takumi and enjoyed reading a romance without a focus on sex. All around, a great ace book. Recommended!! #ace #asexual #LGBTQIA 💜🤍🖤

Not obsessed with this book at all 😂😂😂😂 First read on audio last year, then again a few months later because I needed my fluff book again, then bought the paperback and read it AGAIN a few months after that. I later bought the audio, and just now, to complete the collection, I bought the ebook cuz why the hell not, and it's on sale 😬
