Welcome to Litsy!

So my Litsy friends. Which one should I start with, which should I skip?

First time annotating a book! This is my spare copy of The Sea of Monsters, and I really have no idea what I‘m doing. I‘m a wimp and won‘t take chances, so we‘ll see how this goes.

I‘m loving it so far

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This book was PHENOMENAL! It was packed with backstory, lore, character development, comedy, and tragedy. I can‘t even say much more other than the fact that I LOVED IT. The definition of a 5-star book in my opinion. March was actually a huge reading slump for me, and I didn‘t even get through this book until today (apr 2). But this book would‘ve been my pick for #readingbracket2025 even if it wasn‘t the only book I read that month.

Percy Jackson journeys to the Bermuda Triangle in a quest for the Golden Fleece.

Another enthralling adventure. I hope it's not the last we see of Tyson.

I don‘t usually like Greek myth retellings, though I‘ve had some luck with some of Haynes‘s books and I liked this one, too. I didn‘t read the description and actually didn‘t realize who Jocasta was until about halfway through, which was fun.

I think I've changed my mind about pursuing further Medea adaptations. While the original tale is enduring and memorable, it is also very dark. This version does its best to present flawed humanity more than supernatural/godly influences, but that presents even more starkly the limitations placed on Medea - while she has violent impulses, she also is at the mercy of any number of political machinations and the realities of being a woman 1/?

Damn.

Yes! Madeline Miller was friendly and approachable at my local indie bookstore. #sundayfunday

A reread for me, as I stopped reading the WEBTOON a year or so ago (I think) and have some catching up to do! Love this series. #TBRtarot
