Welcome to Litsy!

Here are the books I want to finish during the #JoysOfJune readathon hosted by @Andrew65:

- Catfishing on CatNet
- The Ladies of Missalonghi
- Babel-17
- She Who Became the Sun
- A few more short works from the nominees lists of the 2022 Hugo and Aurora awards. #hugoawards #hugo2022 #auroraawards

Good luck to all the readathon participants!

This science-fiction adventure is a 2022 Aurora Best YA Novel nominee. I liked the characters and enjoyed the story, though the editing was somewhat sloppy. It feels a bit like the Heinlein juveniles I enjoyed when I was young, without the 1940's stereotypes. #auroraawards

A 2022 Aurora Best Novella nominee, this story describes the horrors encountered by survivors of an apocalyptic invasion, as seen through the research of an anthropologist 50 years later. #auroraawards

Nominated for the Aurora YA and Lodestar (Hugo YA) awards this year, this novel is a hard-hitting, fast-paced story that plays around with the usual YA fantasy tropes. I really enjoyed it and I love the gorgeous cover too.

I'm at a bit over 12 hours for the #20in4 readathon. @Andrew65

This sequel to Beneath the Rising is one of this year's Aurora Best Novel nominees. The premise is interesting (especially if you like Lovecraftian cosmic horror), but I couldn't get excited about the plot or characters.

I'm at just over 9 hours so far in the #20in4 readathon. @Andrew65

Time for another #20in4 readathon hosted by @Andrew65! I managed an hour already before work this morning. I'm hoping to spend most of the readathon reading from my Aurora Awards Voter Packet. #auroraawards

A brilliant conclusion to an outstanding series! This saga of rival clans in an Asian-inspired fantasy world is a moving story of family, loyalty and forgiveness but also features great martial arts sequences and a suspenseful plot.

Nominated for a 2022 Aurora Best Novel award and a 2022 Hugo Best Series award.

This third book in the Quantum Evolution series has been nominated for a 2022 Aurora Best Novel award. This series is excellent space opera that explores the consequences of genetic engineering on human races. #auroraawards

4th book finished for the #MarvellousMay readathon, and another spot marked on my #BookSpinBingo card! @Andrew65 @TheAromaofBooks

This novel was nominated for the 2022 Aurora Best Novel award and the entire series was nominated for a 2022 Hugo award.

I liked this final book very much but it didn't amaze me the way Witchmark, the first book, did.

Second book finished for #MarvellousMay and another on my #BookSpinBingo card! @Andrew65 @TheAromaofBooks

Finished my first book for the #MarvellousMay readathon, one of the 2022 Aurora Best Graphic Novel/Comic nominees. The story is lighthearted and fun, and I loved the cheerful colours of the artwork. I'm sure the story would resonate with anyone who has had to live with an annoying sibling! 😄
