Welcome to Litsy!

Put aside one book and picked up this one. So far, so good. 🤞🏻

How is a magician to exist without books? Let someone explain *that* to me. It is like asking a politician to achieve high office without the benefit of bribes or patronage.

HAPPY #BOOKSPIN DAY TO ALL WHO CELEBRATE!

It is my favorite day of the month and I am excited at what the draw has picked for me. It's nice that this month there's fantasy and scifi rather than just one or the other. My selections are the tagged and Red Mars. We'll see how far I get with my backlog this month as well.

But enough about what I think… how would the Middle East look today if John Bolton and Mike Pompeo got their way and we went to war with Iran? #thedivider #peterbaker #susanglasser #donaldtrump #johnbolyon #mikepompeo #war #iran #internationalpolitics #alternatehistory #history #ushistory #worldhistory #uspolitics #politicalscience

Finding this an odd read. I'm not exactly bored, but there's such a remove from all the characters that I have no one to be interested in. It's like reading a moderately entertaining history book.

I like books about train trips. But this one is crazy so far….

Did not occur to me that there might be long waits for this 20 year old book, so I'm pretty late starting. #DoubleSpin

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

Posting my fifth and final #trappedinaspookyhouse review just in time for #snowedin, haha.

This was fun and I enjoyed it, but somehow it felt a little flimsy to me. The gimmicks and wordplay were great and the worldbuilding was very creative, but the plot and particularly the love story needed a little more polishing. Maybe the later books in the series do better with this? Let me know. Anyway I‘m glad I read it; it‘s been on my TBR for years.

Little book haul from Costco and the Goodwill.
I keep hearing great things about Frozen River. I liked this cover of Pillars maybe someday now I will read it.
I didn't realize Heyer had a mystery series, I know she was a terrible person but I do like her writing.

Has anyone read this God Save The Queen? Looks like a fun zombie series and the cover really drew me in I haven't heard anything about it before
