Welcome to Litsy!

I was not prepared to be so affected by this book! My first Atwood and I must say I am impressed. It‘s disturbing and sad and totally plausible. It‘s the female version of 1984, and being a woman, this hits closer to home.

Read this for this month‘s #ReadWithMrBook prompt that was #LitsyAwardWinner. I have started to read a lot of picture books this year and I really liked this one.

This was a bit up and down for me. I‘m not usually a fan of fantasy so it took me a little while to get into this one. I then really started to enjoy it, but it dipped a bit in the middle to then end strongly.

I could have done with knowing before I started that there was a glossary of Russian terms at the end...

But overall a pick, and it ticks off two challenge prompts.

They help then know what to expect.
Sometimes, though,
I think labels stop them from
Thinking.”

Easy and funny book by my fav author. It emphasises how little things matters in life. It sheds light on both the best & annoying part of parenting! It‘s a book that makes you laugh. Some stories are really emotional, but narrated in a honest and humorous way. I listen to this whenever my little girl took nap 😛 3.5🌟

Done with my #9 book of #bookspinbingo

I reread Ninth House for #bbbbc and I think I enjoyed it even more this time. I loved the magic systems, Darlington, the New England setting, the secret societies and I really need Bardugo to publish the next one 🖤

I loved this book! Totally worth the hype! I was laughing and crying throughout parts of this. Though focusing on two individuals in the spotlight, McQuiston does well making everything seem so realistic. The complications. The secrets. And, the trust and hope in this book. A perfect distraction read.

Challenge prompts below: ⬇️⬇️⬇️

Okay, I thought in the first few pages I was going to bail- Alex comes off as an immature jerk. Luckily that passes quickly. I ended up breezing through.

I don‘t read much romance, but this was great. The political aspect added a lot to the story. It was fun that part of it took place here in Austin, too.

Thanks to all the Littens who posted love for this. You were right.

I loved this book. It was funny, heartwarming, romantic and just fantastic. In an altered reality of ours we have a female President and a first son who starts a relationship with the Prince of England. Its complicated and adorable 💜
