Welcome to Litsy!

I've signed up for three 2025 #readingchallenges already, and it's not even December! #WickedWords is a given of course if it's running, #ISpyBingo I very much enjoy, and I like the look of the prompts for #booklistqueenchallenge25 too. And I'll be running Four Fours again, hashtagged #fourfoursin25 this time.

What are you thinking of signing up for? Or running?

I started reading this immense tome in January and finally finished it! The first third was a slog and all of it was challenging, but now I'm sad it's over. I'll spend the next month reading articles explaining what I just read and I may even do a reread one day. I think I must be a real glutton for punishment! 😂

This was the obvious choice for the “Grimmsnarl: Read the longest book on your TBR“ prompt. #gottacatchemall @PuddleJumper

#TodayILearned what a terrible leader Henry III was. That's probably why there aren't many films or books devoted to him. Still, I'm really enjoying Costain's Plantagenet series. It's very readable, even if some of the feelings and thoughts the author attributes to these real-life characters might have involved some guesswork.

Nathan is flung into an unexpected adventure when he meets up with the mysterious Haven and crosses path with the volken chasing after him. This was a fun read. I wish it was a bit more developed, but I loved the characters and how the story unfolds. #Nonbinary #Hispanic #Fantasy #Comics

Hello, November! The end of the year is coming up fast. The only challenges I really want to complete are the #gottacatchemall, #nonfiction2024, alphabet challenge, and the diversity across genres challenge (hosted on Insta). I'm so close to finishing them. This month will be dedicated to filling most of the remaining prompts so I can have a low key December full of bonus reads.

Explore human culture after becoming a space faring species out of necessity for generations, and then a species split between planed and the ships wee survived on. A scifi slice of life: Another excellent read in this series exploring the many aspects of being human. I loved this as much as Chambers' other books. #scifi #SpaceColony

This just got recced for #GottaCatchemAll I think my phone is listening to me 😂

It was pretty cool learning about the women of Disney Studios history. They had to put up with a lot in order to follow their career dreams. I also really enjoyed learning the history of many of the films these women worked on, and learning a bit of cinima history along the way.
