Welcome to Litsy!

Thank you Barbara for my lovely gifts!

As you know, the tagged book has been on my radar for some time after all the Aussie Littens read it and raved about it!

And Slanting Towards The Sea is a fairly new addition to my wish list, having seen stellar reviews from @Jas16 @Lesliereadsalot .

I‘m looking forward to reading both at the same time/ similar time to you - maybe even a #buddyread at Gladstone‘s?!

We are a little less than 1.5 weeks away from our next #LiteraryCrew #BuddyRead discussion! I‘ve seen some positive reviews already from group members, so I hope this sparks some great discussion on the 31st.

As a heads up, our next book is Ragtime by E.L. Doctorow. I‘ll post the official graphic either today or tomorrow, when I have a free moment and remember (!), but wanted to make sure everyone was aware now.

September‘s #NancyDrewBR takes us away from River Heights and into another mystery that includes the kidnapping of Carson Drew! Oh my!

Discussion on September 15th. All are welcome to join. Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from the tag list!

Sorry for the late post on the vote for the next book! Two different types of books by two authors. Please let me know which book you would prefer to read for the September/October read of #OhCanada . Moon of the Crusted Snow is the first of two books (so far) and Three Day Road is the first in a trilogy.

Anyone welcome to join in this easy going book club where we explore different Canadian authors every two months.

I have kiddos in the house! As a non-mom, I don't know how you moms and grandmas do this! My godson (9-year-old), cousin (14-year-old), and mom are all visiting from Texas, and I am EXHAUSTED! Trying to entertain them - but also trying to have quiet time (my husband and I live in a dark, quiet home, usually - we aren't a fan of the “big lights“). Anyway, I am super behind on #HashtagBrigade #BuddyRead

This was a quick read and very odd. The premise isn't the oddest thing; the oddest thing is how the characters jump to bizarre conclusions as though they're not just plausible but the only rational explanation and get essentially no pushback. It feels a little like the author is a kid coming up with weird stories while playing with his action figures. I don't love Uketsu's books, but I'll keep reading them.

Just a friendly reminder that we'll be reading #FifthElephant next! Dig out your books, put in your library holds, or place your orders! The next Discworld adventure continues on September 8th! Woohoo!

If anyone wants to be tagged/untagged for future posts please let me know! Happy to oblige!
