Welcome to Litsy!

#HappyFridayReadingHour

Sitting down with a mug of toffee flavored instant coffee. It‘s not very good - more like hot chocolate than coffee- but it brings happy memories of those Suisse Mocha Coffee commercials from the‘80s which I somehow thought represented my future. The lifestyle they were selling is what I thought I wanted. 😉☕️

The books are my attempt to complete the #OffMyShelf challenge in the next five days. 🤞

The thief walked through rolls of milky fog, advancing warily to the base of a wall that rose until the fog swallowed it; his chameleon-web bodysuit mocked the opaline mist until he was a pale shade in the shadows.

I had a complicated relationship with this and for a while was just reading because a friend recommended it. It took too long for the author to invite me into the story (2 hours), I hated how many sections there were before chapter 1, and a lot of stuff felt unnecessary in the begging. After about 10 hours I did start enjoying things and looking forward to what happened next. I wish the women had more page time or there were more women leads.

It‘s here!! Thank you so much @Daisey !! I‘ve been wanting to read this one! I loved the first one so much. I‘m ready to get started ASAP! Also, the purple bag is so cute! It was just like unwrapping a gift 😊 #JolabokaflodSwap

This was an interesting little tale describing an island where pirates arrive seeking gems and ban all items and item names using the letter named in the title. Yet, in this tale, that letter is used many, many times, including in a few very necessary ideas.

Trekked out to this tribute to Roald Dahl in his birthplace of Cardiff, Wales. 🐊

What a way to start a series… this was an epic beginning. I can‘t wait to read the next book

The Twelfth Enchantment is a slow burn—maybe too slow for its length—but the third act saves it. Lucy, cheated out of her inheritance and pushed toward marriage, is drawn into a hidden supernatural war after a mysterious stranger arrives with a message for her. Written in a Jane Austen–inspired style, the dialogue shines, though the long descriptions sometimes stall the momentum.
