Welcome to Litsy!

February wrap up! Not a bad reading month. My favourite was the tagged. Let's see what March brings.

The audio on this is only 3 hours, and if you liked Horrorstor or like the idea of a story that takes place (partially) inside an IKEA-like store, this is for you. It‘s less horror that Hendrix‘s book, and leans scifi and multiverse. LGBTQIA young adults searching for a missing grandma. Good times!

Not my cup of tea, even though there were some scenes I really enjoyed. Like the combined girl power at the end. But all in all it couldn't convince me. I didn't felt the chemistry between the MCs at all. Sure, they're cute together, but went from 0 to 100 in like half a page? Also, what's up with that guy who has like a ton of ex-gfs while being what? 20?

This said,” pick me “ ,at a local bookshop. Thought it might be good for my grandson but also thought I would read it first. I‘m not a graphic novel fan but this was an easy read. For anyone grappling with gender issues or wishing to understand these things , a easy and interesting read. I will be giving it to my grandson.

Read 13 books in February. A lot of just okay romances. The tagged was my favorite read of February and I never would have picked it up or heard of it without #auldlangspine

This was a unique ghost story about a haunted street named after the first residents, Talitha Velkwood and her family.
One night, the whole neighborhood just vanished. The only survivors were three of the girls who were away at college. Now, a research group and Talitha are going back 👻

My mom loaned this to me. So now I don't need to wait for it to come out in paperback.

This book was quirky, but in a good way.As the author will tell you in his note at the end,it is a bit weird.I really fell for these characters,and deeply felt their feelings of sadness towards the end.This book reminded me a bit of ET. There‘s nothing like a lovable little space creature, or a”space princess”in this case. This is the second book I‘ve read by TJ Klune. I will be reading more. I recommend this book,it‘s an action packed love story

A compelling novel about two siblings, shifting between children and teens, trying to survive as Chinese Americans during the California gold rush. It vividly describes a father who is convinced that he can “make it,” and two very different siblings, who have to head out on their own, navigating one‘s desire to fit in and the other‘s desire to fulfill their father‘s dream. (Too many plot twists to summarize it all!) #LGBTQIA BIPOC
