Welcome to Litsy!

This was a lovely read. Just the mood I needed.

repost for @PuddleJumper:

January's author is Malinda Lo!

I've read and enjoyed some of her YA/retelling books. I enjoyed Huntress and Ash. Anyone else have any recommendations? Drop them below

I'm going to #QueerBC May-May so I'll refresh the author list then and I'll do some feedback stuff March/April to see how to improve it

Thank you to everyone who has participated. I hope you are enjoying yourself and discovered some new authors

This is easily my favorite book of this month. You sure know the feeling when you have to put your book down and do something dull like working, always longing to dive back into the story? This was this kind of book for me. Exactly what I needed and wanted.
So, where do I drop my vote for reading the next volume in the series with #queerbc ? 😉

@Puddlejumper

A group of friends decides that an abandoned haunted manor, full of the ghosts of women buried alive, is the perfect place for a wedding party. The house agrees.

I really wanted more out of this. At the end of every chapter, I felt like it needed to be twice as long. I needed more set up of the friends, more set up for the climax. The descriptions were visceral & unsettling, & would have been better suited for a more gradual horror.🌕🌕🌕🌑🌑

I‘m not big into holiday themed books but this one was an absolute joy (😉) to read. Hex was a lovely pumpkin spice roll of a book boyfriend. Coal wasn‘t perfect and somehow that is what made this book lovely. He acknowledged his faults, tried to make amends, and never lost sight of what Christmas means to so many.

I have #wintergames points questions:
1. Can you count hours read for buddy reads, even if they aren't specifically readathons? Like the buddy read for #queerbc, for instance?
2. Do my #christmascheer and #poetrymatters posts count for points?

Second set of bookmarks for the #QueerBC buddy read

If you want better quality email me at eommods@gmail.com

These are all from the publicity/book club pack which I got from #Netgalley

Printable bookmarks are next! There is another set that I'll post under the #QueerBC tag

I love bookmarks. I never use bookmarks because receipts, leaves, random bits of wool work really well ... All my pretty bookmarks stay in a drawer 😅

If you want better quality pictures email me at eommods@gmail.com and I'll send them. I'm getting them from a publicity pack

Well... Why were these people friends in the first place? They all seemed to hate each other, so I didn't really care about them. Maybe the horror in this was too subtle, and I might should've tried to find a translation to get into this a bit better. Next time maybe.
