Welcome to Litsy!

My #librarybookhaul from yesterday. Picked up holds on the tagged book for #Pemberlittens & A Botanist‘s Guide to Parties and Poisons for #AuldLangSpine from @Laughterhp ‘s list & Funeral Girl & Accomplished caught my eye in YA. Then the library bookstore had 1/2-off fiction so I got the 3 remaining books there for $2.50. I‘m most excited about the pretty Waterstones Signed Exclusive Edition of Under the Whispering Door! 🤗
The book🐔🐔 approve!

Another rock solid #AuldLangSpine suggestion from @BarkingMadRead

Beautiful piece of contemporary fiction. I can‘t even describe what a journey this book was. You feel it in your core on so many levels. It is a gut-wrenching, heartbreaking, heartfelt, roller coaster of a novel that is beautifully written.

What a wonderful & generous idea, @monalyisha 🥰 I really want to read a bunch of these, but the tagged book is my best pick! Thank you! #AuldLangSpine #Giveway #bestof22

I only got to finish one book for #AuldLangSpine this year (The Heartbreak Bakery) BUT I‘m halfway through this one from @Clare-Dragonfly list & I love it. I originally chose it bc it was the #LGBTbookclub January read & it satisfied #TarorTBR prompt. Three birds with one stone, as the saying goes.

@monalyisha thank you for once again doing this event! As Clare posted earlier, we are bookish soulmates! Thanks for connecting us. 📖🫶🏻☺️

WOW! What a month! While I didn‘t accomplish all the reading I planned, I did great! And I even added a cookbook to my list (obsessed!!!). #SheSaid #AuthorAMonth #PemberLittens #AuldLangSpine

PS: #LittensLoveRomance don‘t waste your time with the next Covens of Eaton Falls. It has the same issues we complained about, which is a shame bc the premise is good! Very disappointing.

Bonnie makes her own Three‘s Company world and escapes the “real” one and everyone in it. She creates a safe place.

Who gets to judge what is a good or happy life or a “ sane” one?

Not a happy read but I couldn‘t put it down.
