Welcome to Litsy!

An informative and emotional history of one of my favorite indie bookstore: The King‘s English in Salt Lake City, Utah.

I grew up visiting this store, and it was a true delight to learn how it came to be and how it operates. I really appreciated reading of the difficulties they‘ve dealt with. And many big name authors have visited! Also many, many book lists to peruse and take notes on! 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

A wonderful event with both Margaret Owen and Tricia Levenseller (both delightful people) at the Under the Umbrella bookstore in #SaltLakeCity ! #SLC #AuthorEvent

And shout out to Margaret for being the first person, when I introduced myself, to say “Oh, like the fairy from Ferngully?” 🥹🥹

What a wonderful turnout to the Legendarium in Salt Lake City for Rebecca Thorne‘s book tour for the third Tomes and Tea book! #AuthorEvent #SLC #SaltLakeCity

When your sister has the day off, and your nibling is on Spring Break, it‘s time for a day trip to one of my favorite spots.

A woman claims Blackfoot as her nationality at the border between Canada and the US and neither side knows quite what to do with her. Easy to read and a thoughtful look at how we view ourselves.

New #LocalBookstore alert! #SaltLakeCity now has a sci fi and fantasy focused little bookstore! Legendarium Books! Cozy and nerdy and utterly delightful, with a welcoming atmosphere, I can‘t wait to make this a regular place for me. ❤️❤️

Again, beautiful work, much recommended.

I‘m not sure why no one has checked it out yet.

Do so! It will make you think! 🍁🇨🇦🦅🇺🇸🪶🪶

The art is just exquisite.

#SLCLittens ! For the rest of the month, if you buy one of the queer fairytales in the front display of the Under the Umbrella Bookstore, (that I curated ☺️) 5% of the sales will go to the Trevor Project! ❤️🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️❤️
