Welcome to Litsy!

I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it (some I‘ve had so long I don‘t even remember why!). Feel free to join in!

I loved this book! Middle-aged spinsters get involved with freeing females from an abusive husband, mental asylum, & a brothel. Told in 3 adventures, set in 1812, a historical look at women‘s status in that time. Adventurous with some romance and strong women. This is the beginning of a series—yay! #bookspin for November

We, of course, learned a great deal about Cook‘s first voyage at school but I knew very little about his other two voyages and had not known what a prominent figure he was in his own time. This was a very informative account but it was also engaging. I appreciated hearing about Cook from a modern viewpoint - Sides did not shy away from the sometimes brutal misdeeds of Cook and his men which no doubt led to Cook‘s death.

A busy week coming up but still hoping for some reading progress🤞🏻🤓

Went deep into my TBR stacks trying to make progress before the end of the year & came across this book—I think I got it for my husband?!? 🤷‍♀️ Anyway, it‘s about a school of sorcerers who protect the world from demons and three students who are just getting started. I enjoyed it, may even read more, but I‘m not sure why I thought my husband would…I must have seen a recommendation somewhere. Anyway, a quick fun read.

All these things, with some very surprising incidents in some new adventures of my own, for ten years more, I may perhaps give a farther account of hereafter.

I've been on a roll with spy stories so thought I'd get to this one that has been in my tbr for some time. Fun story about a 14 year old recruited by MI6. Lots of action, and a character you can like.

Kaiju No.8, volume 1
Sci-fi creature genre are not my usual reads, HOWEVER this series is awesome. I really enjoyed season 1 of the anime and knew I needed to add the series to my library. Why do I like it? First, the main character is a mid-aged adult (not typical adolescent). Secondly, it has humor!!! Not dark and brooding. Third, it‘s fun and I want more!!!!
