Welcome to Litsy!

Hagworthy a mystical village - my current bus read 📚

Fantastic, loved it. I‘ve been collecting as many Dorrie the Witch books as I can find. This one was elusive, so I resorted to eBay and had to get a little paperback edition. All the others I‘ve found are the hardcover school editions like I read in elementary school.

“The worst thing that good cold do to evil.was ignore it.“

The 1st in the Critically acclaimed Trilogy

Photos from our Saturday walk. We picked chestnuts: not only were they pretty, shiny and pristine, with not a maggot in sight and hardly any mud on them, but they were also delicious.
And Little Witch Hazel is a fantastic book for children. Grandkid loves the stories & I like the underpinning “hippy“ outlook on life - kind, understanding and tolerant (including of leg hair on women 😅)

Twelve-year-old Elizabeth is sent to spend the summer with her distracted, scholarly aunt at a Scottish manor house and finds herself mysteriously able to interact with the 18th-century family who once lived there.

“Time-slip” stories were a huge childhood favourite of mine and this 1975 novel is such a good addition to the genre.

Stormed yesterday. Took down 3 trees. Half the town still doesn‘t have power. Including me. Thank goodness we have a generator for the fridge and freezer. But dang it‘s hot.

All my vacation reading time has become free and tractor time. However. My little library survived and was dry. The tree fell a foot from it.

So much for finishing my reading challenge.

Here‘s the fiction I bought from Green Dolphin books - Joan Aiken, Noel Streatfeild and tiny editions of Baldwin and Buck. #greendolphin
