Welcome to Litsy!

More outdoor reading with my favourite little dude. I wouldn‘t normally start something this long during the Readathon, but I‘m in a fantasy mood and I can put at least a small dent in it before I fall asleep. #deweysapril2024

A very fun story about a friend group of queer girl gamers who are competing in the championships for Renegade Rule. The narrative follows our team both in and out of the game. I loved this! I wish we could have more of these characters as they navigate post-college life. #DeweysApril2024 #Readathon #GraphicNovels #GirlGamers #LGBTQIA

Just hangin around outside with FMA while we wait for the rice to cook. Casey gets a small portion with every meal (he eats four times a day thanks to a pancreatitis bout a couple years back) and I plan to steal some from his pot to go with my leftover beans & lotus root. #deweysapril2024

I enjoyed this book, my first from Tananarive Due. It was spooky while also dealing with heavier themes of death, grief, the foster care system, and overall the experience of being Black in America. You really can‘t help but feel for Aisha since she‘s so young and has lost so much. Maybe we all need a lil dark entity to take care of us every once in awhile 😭 #DeweysApril2024 #readathon #GraphicNovel #Horror #TananariveDue

That‘s another volume of SKIP BEAT! in the bag! This one didn‘t flow quite as well as the last couple, so I regular-loved it instead of being all OMGOMGOMGZZZZOMG, but I still laughed and gasped and had a great time watching the Japanese Route actors practice performing together in English. I can‘t wait until they land in the US and more superdramatic plot stuff comes to fruition. #deweysapril2024

Due to a curse, everyone is immortal and wears their heart outside their body. Only finding a soulmate allows you to become mortal and leave the island. This has a great concept but it was hard at times to follow the story and art. It‘s incredibly fast paced with a lot happening in the panels. There‘s a beautiful message throughout and plenty of queer representation. #DeweysApril2024 #readathon #graphicnovel #LGBTQIA #fantasy #youngadult

I finished the tagged book during my daily Candy Crush time, and I loved it. It‘s fun, funny, emotional, and perfectly in tune with that state of being where you‘re desperately trying to figure out what it seems like everyone else in your situation has already mastered. #deweysapril2024 #audiogaming

I enjoyed this! It was a quick and fun read that told the stories of multiple guests checking into Hotel Diablo. Unexpected in some parts, horror in some, while heartfelt in others. I would love more stories set in this hotel. #DeweysApril2024 #readathon #graphicnovel #horror #fantasy

Part 2 of my TBR for today‘s #Readathon! Forgot to post it yesterday 😅 #DeweysApril2024

First read of #DeweysApril2024. This was a wonderful non-fiction graphic novel exploring the author‘s decision to not be a mother and her experiences with societal pressure to impose motherhood on her. It‘s got humor and lovely colorful art. The only thing I would‘ve wanted to read more about was her relationship with her sisters; whether they were mothers and if so, the experience of being an aunt. #Readathon #graphicnovel #autobiography
