Welcome to Litsy!

May's mid-month #bookspinbingo check-in.
I've completed both the #bookspin and #doublespin picks and am having a harder and harder time choosing what to read next as my brain is all over the place lol

Mid-month check in.

This is the story the KKK‘s rise to prominence in the state of Indiana and throughout the US and the crime and subsequent court case that resulted in the high-water mark for the organization‘s power and influence. This is American history that everyone should know, but that no one learns in school. I was left wondering, if it wasn‘t for Grand Dragon D.C. Stephenson‘s violent and criminal behavior, how much more power would the Klan have amassed?

This author is highly entertaining. I will read anything she's willing to put out into the world. Her author photos alone are epic.

Started this because I love the tagline ("be gay, solve crime, take naps") and it all sounded fun (and of course it's on my #BookSpinBingo card), but I'm not entirely sure if it's for me. Not sure what's bothering me, just... vibes. I'm cognisant that it's longer than 400 pages, so I might just be getting daunted due to most of my reading being significantly shorter than that. Silly, but it's a thing that does happen to me these days.

Mid-May check in. 2 bingos so far and a lot of enjoyable reading time. 💙📚💙

I loved everything about this book!!

#bookspinbingo - got a bingo!
#pop25 - a book with 2 or more books on the cover or “book” in the title

This was a really good book with lots of tension, but it‘s also pretty dark. Tons of trigger warnings! And there were some really good twists towards the end.

#bookspinbingo - this is my #bookspin for this month

I read this with the #LittensLoveACOTAR group which made it even more enjoyable. Much calmer than the other stories in the series. I think it‘s laid the groundwork for A Court of Silver Flames which the group has just started.

A late #BookSpinBingo entry. I wasn't going to do it this month, because I've been feeling too pressured with reading goals, but I've decided that sticking to the actual BookSpin list version will fit with what I'm trying to do.
