Welcome to Litsy!

When the younglings of Redwall are kidnapped by a gang of vermin, it‘s up to Buckler, a Blademaster of the Long Patrol to rescue.

This still had everything I loved from reading Redwall as a child. Charming characters, fantastic feasts, epic battles to protect the vulnerable. It was like coming home. But, I‘m also a lot more aware of the slow plot, uneven pacing, & the black & white nature of good & evil with the animal species. 🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑

3.5 ⭐️ That got me out of my reading slump!

This was a cute, light read that had all of the holiday feels. I really enjoyed the storyline and characters.

Right before the Fall Festival, the mayor of Larkspur is found dead. With that, a rash of vandalism, & a standoffish reporter, Greta must hurry to solve the mystery before things escalate.

Disappointing. I really wanted more development with the relationships, & that didn‘t really happen. Greta felt inconsistent from what she said & what she did. & the solve of mystery felt like it got solved off page. Sweet setting, but that was it. 🌕🌕🌗🌑🌑

Bk1 of #WinterGames & #20in4 #readathon was finished Sunday. Sorry I haven‘t posted till now, we‘ve had a bad start to December here. I have read a few books still. This NF is one I‘ve wanted to read for years, Watergate is fascinating. Written by the two journalists who persevered with the story even under pressure from government agencies who just wanted the incident to go away. Nixon & Trump have a lot in common! #TeamEvergreen #4866pts 👇

This is my 2nd book of both #WinterGames and of the #20in4 #Readathon #CandyCaneCrushers. I finished it last night. I didn't like any of the characters, and while that might have been the point, it wasn't fun in the “Knives Out“ sort of way that I was hoping for. Also, I had difficulty keeping track of everyone and it probably would've been easier to do that had I read the book in print instead of audio.

Although this book wasn‘t in my #20in4 #readathon plan, I needed so@Ethi g quick, light & fun & so I finished it. This is Book 3 in the Charming Cove mystery series & follows 2 new characters Aria (witch) & Callan (broody werewolf) with the MCs of the previous books making appearances. It‘s a typical paranormal rom-com but sometimes that‘s what I need. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I‘m on board for more of Charming Cove. Tagging book 1 ⬇️

1 did not get much reading done- holiday shopping & lunch with my family Friday, movies, etc. although our #sundaybuddyread book (tagged) is not due to be finished yet,I can‘t put it down! It‘s a historical cozy mystery,set on a manor & in its surrounding village in the UK in the 1920s.
I plan to finish tonight.
I‘ve read just a few chapters of the other Murder in the Snow, also a historical mystery.

Cozy Sci-fi Murder Mystery set on a sentient space station

Second book in the Midsolar Murders series.

The station is acting up. Mallory's connection to the Sundry hivemind is on the fritz. There are visitors from Earth, some of whom are from Mallory's past. And, of course, another murder occurs; and all visiting humans have a motive.
