Welcome to Litsy!

'Living is the challenge, Josie. Not dying. Dying is so easy. Sometimes it only takes ten seconds to die. But living? That can take you eighty years and you do something in that time, whether it's giving birth to a baby or being a housewife or a barrister or a soldier. You've accomplished something.'

This is one of my favourite books ❤ Do I need more copies? Absolutely 😝

Day 18: #uglycover

Listen, I‘ve really enjoyed Melina Marchetta‘s books, but this 1992 cover is so distasteful 😂🤢

Today‘s book haul!! 📚
The Princeton Public Library had its annual sale, and I controlled myself by setting a limit of 3 books and managing to walk out with 4 ☺️ That‘s what I call self-control! 😂💖
1. “Looking for Alibrandi” by Melina Marchetta
2. “Good in Bed” by Jennifer Weiner
3. “Girl Online” by Zoe Sugg
4. “Once & Future” (# 1) by Amy Rose Capetta and Cori McCarthy

I'm beginning to realise that things don't turn out the way you want them to.
And sometimes, when they don't, they can turn out just a little bit better.

Found this gorgeous street library in Newtown! That free Melina Marchetta book is an absolute treasure. 💛

This series is my absolute favourite book series of all time. This book follows the story of Finnikin and Evangelin - but it is so much more than that. A love story, a story about wars and kings, this book explores thoughts of forgiveness, hatred, family, belonging and so much more.
The love I have for this series has no bounds and I highly recommend it for anyone needing a good story! #books #bibliophile #melinamarchetta
