Welcome to Litsy!

Random book from our home library:

📖 Eleanor of Aquitaine by Alison Weir

Recent fiction acquisition:

📖 The Serpent's Tale by Ariana Franklin

I don't have words for how much I love this book.

So here's some stats:

82 days to read
758 pages read

I bought the book cause I couldn't read fast enough.

Love this book enough I bought the other two in the trilogy.

I am so glad I started, stuck with, and finished this book!

Technically, I finished a book last Sunday but included that book in the previous wrap up.

I have been reading on my chunky book-about 20-25 pages a day at lunch (about 35-40 minutes). I have hit the limit of renewals at the library and may have to purchase this one cause I do want to keep at it.

Tomorrow, I am going to sit with my coffee and read a few kids books. It's imperative I switch things up, bookwise.

I'm in medieval England and Normandy this week (and next week and probably the week after 😭). I am enjoying this but, man, this is taking me a while to read!

I am really enjoying this book even though I am reading it so slowly.

Mini readathon this weekend to conquer some of the books that have come in and I can't renew!

Due to lack of internet, I didn't get a chance to post this yesterday. #Bookhaul from a new-to-me used bookstore. My little picked up a decent stack as well. 📚

Forgot to post yesterday! For some reason can't concentrate on the Penman novel so it's off to the west.
Really enjoyed the Le Guin book and looking forward to the hygge book next weekend.

Started this chunkster last night... Okay, read 6 pages our of 759 pages. I think I'm going to enjoy this one!

I had to finish reading Wolf Hall before I started this one, so I wouldn‘t get my Henries mixed up 😆

I didn‘t know much about Eleanor of Aquitaine going into this, but now I realize why E.L. Konigsburg found her so fascinating. Headstrong, determined, wife to two major figures of her time, mother of Richard the Lionheart and the infamous King John—and with a finger in a LOT of different political pies! The narrative frame here felt a bit odd:⤵️
