Welcome to Litsy!

Rich Mullins was a Christian musician in the 80s/90s, who died in a car accident in 1997. This book, written by a good friend of his a few years later, is an odd sort of biography. It doesn't really outline his life or career, but rather looks at key aspects of Rich's faith and beliefs through his lyrics and writing. I grew up on Rich's music and it definitely has shaped the way I view God and His love; Rich's lyrics still can hit me sideways ⬇

The fourth Dolittle book is set back in England. As usual (because of his generous nature) Dolittle is broke, so the pushmi-pullyu agrees to travel with a circus to raise some funds. So the entire household sets off together. This book was a lot about the importance of animal comfort and care and was definitely ahead of its time in calling out circuses and the like for their treatment of animals. There were some fun moments (Dolittle getting ⬇

Zack tries to cover for his team captain when a prank goes wrong, knowing it‘ll pay off later. During his summer of volunteering, he meets a cute guy who makes the “payoff” much more complicated. Overall, a charming summer romance and coming of age story. There were a few concepts that were a little weak and didn‘t hold my attention enough to remember why some things were significant. #LGBTQIA #Sports #Environmentalism #SummerRomance

This volume took things in an incredibly unexpected direction and I can‘t wait to see where they go with it! Also, I love the casual silly end comic where two side characters meet up and become allies. I‘m pretty sure that‘s going to be important later. #Manga #Comics #LGBTQIA

This book was so much fun! To summarize: senior protagonist dealing with a unique curse, a chaos-loving hobgoblin, a powerful no-nonsense woman business partner, general hilarity, and inclusivity throughout. My husband received this book in a book exchange and it's quickly become a favorite. The audiobook was amazing too! (We haven't read other books in the Iron Druid series).

Three Canandian college friends take a trip to New York City. Their adventures are expressive and so much that happens in this book feels urgent like it burns too hot too fast. I love the character and page designs, especially their trip to the museum. The ending felt like falling flat on my face.

An entertaining thrill ride from the start, this was an enjoyable read. Sun Trap follows a Hollywood movie crew to the Abu Dhabi desert, where the filmmaking gets deadly. This is one of the books with constant action. I was invested in the story although I did not feel connected to the characters at all. Especially after the half way mark there was twist after twist after twist. Also, is this not one of the most gorgeous covers you've ever seen?

This Golden Age crime novel from 1923 is a weak pick. The plot is not terribly plausible and there is a lot of melodrama but I still enjoyed the story.

As usual, lots of implausible things happen to Nancy and friends, but this time involving the Kennedy Space Center, which is an interesting aspect. The plot's a mess, but the book was still fun to read.
