Welcome to Litsy!

My first book of 2026 is actually two books 😂 Poison Study, written from the FMC's POV, was published in 2005. In 2023, the author published The Study of Poisons, which is the same story except from the MMC's POV. I found a handy-dandy graphic on IG that had a suggested alternate-chapter reading schedule to keep the two books moving side by side. I really enjoyed this series when I first read it about ten years ago, so I'm excited to revisit it ⬇

#GottaCatchemAll Alola has finished and we will be moving on to the Kalos region!

If you want a catch card graphic then please log your books before January 11th

I'll do a final stat update and show how many books were logged etc

This reread of an old favourite completes my Gotta Catch Em All and 52 Book Club challenges for the year! I love Bilbo and the dwarves!

I picked up an old “Canadian Educational Edition“ of this play about the murder of Thomas Becket. The notes helped but I expect I still missed a good number of references in Eliot's verse. The story was seasonal, as the drama took place during the Yuletide season.

Very charming and cozy watching these two work hard to figure each other out and grow closer. I wound up looking qualia since it never came up in the book, and understanding this concept of fleeting moments and one-time experiences really heightened my experience of this quiet, slow-paced story. #Manga #LGBTQIA

I dove back into my dusty Audible library (haven't opened this thing in years) to fulfill one of my few remaining #gottacatchemall prompts. It was a quick read about a tree nymph opening an ice cream store in a new town. Cute but not memorable.

Prompt: a book I forgot I owned

A fun novella in the Vampire Knitting Club series, perfect for the season!

Three siblings take a crash course through how not to handle holiday romances, and the punches keep coming. I read this over the summer and enjoyed it. Each character's story is interesting and well-paced, with a satisfying conclusion. I almost felt overwhelmed by so many things happening at once but it felt balanced enough to keep me going. Do read the content warnings. #LGBTQIA #Holdays #HolidayRomance
