Welcome to Litsy!

4.25/5 I loved this book! I was really disappointed at the ending (no spoilers) but I‘m looking forward to the next book in the series!

I've been having a lot of bad days lately and today was no exception. In the past, I would console myself with a trip to the bookstore where I would spend way too much money. Since I'm doing #ShelfLove this year and have an extremely limited budget, I decided to go to the library instead and check out more books than I can get through in 2 weeks (I also have 2 other books checked out already). It was just as comforting, but 100% free.

Overall, I loved Race to the Sun. The characters were vibrant and fun. I loved learning about the Twin Heroes and the Trials. It was an amazing journey, and I was disappointed when it ended with a proper wrap-up. There were lots of unanswered questions. However, I still gave it 5 stars because I loved it so much. (I am catching up on January books)

I wasn‘t sure about this book at first, but I‘m really starting to enjoy it! I think Daxon agrees lol.

Wow. So powerful, heartwarming & heartbreaking. My review couldn‘t do it justice. Look it up. Read it. So, so good!!

I read this with my 9 year old. We both loved the story. We watched the movie over the weekend (a big thumbs up from the 9 & even the 15 year old). I liked the movie but liked the book more. We have borrowed the next 2 books from the library to continue following Roz‘s adventures.

The tagged book was a heartwarming tale of adventure and friendship. I adored the idea of bison being the wise ones everyone reported to in the park.

A big thank you to @MeganAnn for an outstanding #auldlangspine list. I read 6 books off her list so far and plan to keep going. I have full confidence the rest of the list will not disappoint.

Thank you very much @monalyisha for hosting and organizing #auldlangspine!

Ahh! This was cute! Not quite what I was expecting coming from what I‘d seen on insta - but a lovely story aimed at a middle grade audience.

Where was this book when I was a child. As a 46-year-old woman I am all in my feels about a book that makes me 11 again. I am lucky that I did not have Ellie‘s mother, but my aunt and my grandmother were just like her. Ellie is a girl who is not small. She‘s been big all her life. She‘s been picked on by people at school, people in neighborhood, and even her mother. This constant referring of “you could be pretty if you lost weight”.

Wow. An amazing book. Between the constant cycle of mysteries being solved and bringing up only more mysteries as well as the character development, it's been an amazing read. The action scenes are well written and everything in between has so much life to it. Totally a pick.
