Welcome to Litsy!

Very cold temperatures yesterday (high of -6 F) meant lots of cozy reading time. Finished #auldlangspine book 4.

This was a fun music inspired retelling of The Little Mermaid. I loved the Disney movie as a girl so it was delightful to find all the connections with that story & see how the author brought Ariel & Eric to a modern timeline. The music theme w/ Eric‘s up & coming band + Ariel‘s pop princess background added a fun element to the story.

Does a creative library display draw you in and add to your TBR?

Took longer for me to get into this one than it has with some other books I‘ve read recently. I think this was a good retelling with a hint of Nightmare on Elm Street. Not my favorite of the Twisted Tales so far, but I still enjoyed it overall. #onceuponadream #lizbraswell #library #hardcover #disney #sleepingbeauty #aurora #fairytale #retelling

A Disney twisted tale. Very good twist on the original story. It was complex and a wee bit dark. It wasn‘t spicy but if I could put a half chili I would. Overall a great book.

As an elder emo, The Nightmare Before Christmas will forever have a special place in my heart and life.
I was nervous about how this story would go since I‘ve tried to read some Twisted Tales and they didn‘t keep me engaged, but this one was fantastic.
It was such a fun read! I love the adorable banter between Jack and Sally.
The epilogue was beautiful and I teared up while reading. Definitely a favorite read for the year. #sallyslament #tnbc
