This is Latte, my newly adopted pibble. She photo bombed my picture and made it perfect. #dogsoflitsy #pitbullsoflitsy

This novel was a magical and transformative fairy tale. I loved the idea of waking up every morning and singing to willow trees. The bonus short story was also good. I'd like to call attention to the acknowledgments. I think the author had important things to say to tie it all together.

I saw one of these on a childhood trip to Wall Drug. I‘m scared of dead pheasants (yes, really. It‘s the weirdest fear ever), so I found it TERRIFYING. Ditto the many, many full pheasants in the place.

Wall Drug really wasn‘t my favourite road trip spot.

I‘ve stuck with this book, obviously, and I‘m really enjoying it now. Even though it feels very long for its story, it‘s got good vibes. I‘ll put up with a lot when the vibes are good.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
It‘s a beautiful little book.
On this read through, I found what it had to say about healing through creating especially moving.

I loved this novella! A retelling in the form of a fairy tale. Two sisters, who love (and like!) each other more than anything or anyone, torn apart by their neighbor‘s greed for their family‘s land, which borders the Faerie realm, refuse to accept their fates.

The magic system (“grammar”), the world building, the setting, the sisters—loved every minute I spent in Thistleford.

Borrowed from the library, but I‘ll definitely buy my own copy.

flying_monkeys If you don‘t normally read them, read the Acknowledgments after The River Has Roots. Heartfelt, genuine, vulnerable—the author didn‘t hold back. 6d

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️There is a reason I make myself wait 2 years before I reread these books. Because this is my 4th time reading this & I still cried & cried (& cried) through so many heart-breaking & breath-taking moments. Last time I read this one I remember finding it a bit tedious, but I didn‘t feel that way this time. Excellent wrap up to the first section of this story.
Ps.It‘s honestly shocking how many Suriel things there are in my house 🥰💀

A fun read which has me excited for the sequel (due out later this year). It‘s a generally familiar story—girl living on the margins (stealing to survive) has unexpected powers & finds herself thrown into the midst of a war centuries in the making. Near death, she is saved by an angry, damaged but yet honorable fae warrior…& then things really get going. As familiar as things are, the story is well told, the characters entertaining. I enjoyed it.

I get to hang out with Casey on this rainy morning! He‘s gonna help me see if I can click with OAK KING HOLLY KING. I read the first 12% last night and didn‘t find myself engaged with either character or curious as to how they fit together, but I‘ll give it a couple more chapters this morning.
