Welcome to Litsy!

Graudin imagines a world where the Axis powers won WWII and continued expanding territory. Yael, survivor of concentration camp medical experiments, has a unique opportunity to serve the resistance by racing in the Axis Tour, a motorcycle race from Germany to Japan, the victor of which will meet Hitler himself. Action packed, filled with moral quandaries and a near romance, this is excellent alternate history. Getting right into #2 in the duology!

Another one that I can‘t believe I waited so long to read. This was a depressing dystopian about how humans are awful…at least that‘s how I saw it😂

A beautiful love story that intertwines science with love. Like an exquisite meal made of simple ingredients, this book is fast paced and easy read, but the heartfelt emotions it causes is deeply layered and multifaceted. How one day and a few decisions can completely alter the universe for several people, Natasha, Daniel and even Irene have their life altered because their paths crossed. Poignant, beautiful and hits you in the heart!

#LittensLoveSJM #ToG #QueenofShadows Ch.1-10: wow what a great first few chapters - I‘m hooked! I like seeing Aelin try to cope with all the recurring characters of her past (Arobynne, Chaol, Lysandra - and memories of Sam - and of course Aedion). Coming back to Rifthold is a lot for her. I feel terrible for Dorian. Will he be able to break free of his father and the Valg? And I still dislike Chaol. A lot. ⬇️

The first time I read this, I gave it 3 stars because it was difficult to follow. I recently watched the TV show on Prime, and I loved it, despite knowing the crazy twist ahead of time. The show gives the story everything the book is lacking. It has backstories for characters, fills in the gaps of the story, and essentially gives it much more depth. I‘d give the show 5+ stars easily.⬇️⬇️⬇️

Faridah Àbìké-Íyímídé‘s debut YA thriller is billed as GET OUT meets GOSSIP GIRL for good reason. It‘s a searing high concept novel where racism meets conspiracy to create an intense choking claustrophobia as Aces racks up their campaign against Von and Chiamaka. That said, it doesn‘t nail the final quarter and there are holes in the conspiracy if you think about it too closely but it has pace, it makes you think and it still feels of the moment.

Finished in September - such a magical and whimsical manga with mysterious undertones that I'm looking forward to exploring in the rest of the series

Just when you think you know where it‘s going it changes up … love it 📖

This was a fun, quick read. I kind of had the murderer figured out, but I still enjoyed the ride. The end was WAY too abrupt though. It was like ‘build up, build up, BUILD UP CLIMAX over. Aso here‘s the murderer.‘ Kind of anti-climatic.
