Happy almost-New-Year, #LitsyLove members! It‘s time to turn in our December #LitsyLoveBingo points to @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks , to be entered in the drawing for a “happy”. Each bingo line is worth 1 point, and a coverall is worth 10 points.
For 2025, #LitsyLoveBingo will be a sporadic, pop-up game, rather than a monthly one. So keep your eyes peeled! 👀😎

pickI love these books, I will finish them when they‘re available! The 6th and 7th books were a little slower plot wise than the other 5 but it could be because I binge read all 5 in a day hahahaha and I know this is a picture of number 7 I‘m sorry, 6 is under it.
pickThis final volume of Locke & Key is nothing short of epic.
pickClearly one of those books that just must be read. I appreciate the style of the graphic novel, though I did find the bold lines made me take pauses in my (almost) one-sitting read. The portrayal of various races/citizens using different animals was effective. Another addition to the perspectives of the Holocaust. Hard to believe some want to ban this from schools. So glad I finally got around to reading this.
Have you always wanted to tackle War & Peace, Les Miserables or any of the other giant books that double as paperweights, but the page counts intimidate you? Join us for the 5th annual #ChunksterChallenge! It‘s structured with levels to help build up your stamina to take down those super-sized tomes and claim the bragging rights. Because the secret to completing the Colossal Chunkster is simple math – one page at a time!

pickFinally got my hands on a copy...
I feel I should have waited to read this, until Volume 6 was out though. But I just couldn't stop myself.
As always Oseman's topic relevancy is so on point. I remember when I was too scared to go to university, I wish I had this as encouragement back then.
I can't wait to see how Nick and Charlie's story will end.
pickThis is an absolute treat. It‘s the 3rd Christmas in a row that I‘m reading this and it‘s not even very Christmasy.
Inspired by the Cinderella story, I just love the humor in this one. It‘s not laugh out loud fun, but more the tone it‘s written in. This is written by Julia Quinn‘s sister, but if you read anything by Quinn you know what I mean.
“Those missing kids aren‘t missing anymore. They‘re where they‘ll always be, dead and in Ohio.”
pickThis reminds me of It by Stephen King; the story has the same sort of cyclic horror and abuse hiding behind a the facade of a “nice” town. Unlike It, the monster in loving is a religion (or cult), and the religion is a pyramid scheme, and it remains undefeated by the end of the story. That tension of the monstrous thing confronted but not defeated, just escaped, feels very adult.
