Welcome to Litsy!

Okokok. Last post and I gotta get back to work.

You know what's really f***ing cool? When you find out your new apartment and other buildings in your new neighborhood were built by the Clamorgan family--an interracial family that developed much of early St. Louis. Check out this description! 👆 I have a feeling this will be all sorts of fabulous. I suddenly found my #ReadHarder #SetInYrCity book!

I live just north of Toronto where these stories are set. I find it fascinating to read about places I often visit but take for granted. And these are pretty good books too! #day13 #setinyrcity #readjanuary

This series was seriously the best! I only have the first and last one and not even the same design, which sucks, but both have appealing fonts! #fortheloveoffonts

I didn't do #setinyrcity year's because all the books I've read thus far set in Portland have been underwhelming. I could go with my previous city, Dallas, but haven't read anything set there. Suggestions, anyone??

Lovely Edinburgh (or Auld Reekie as it is also known) has a long literary history. Here are just a few books for #setinyrcity #ReadJanuary. It's odd how many of these have and orange and white colour scheme

#setinyrcity Without Remorse is the only book I have that's listed as taking place in Baltimore. This is the hubby's book and I haven't read it so I don't know too much about it. Blood and Chocolate is one of mine, and is a werewolf story set in Maryland. #readjanuary @RealLifeReading

I couldn't find any books set in Nashville that I have read, so I chose one that I recognized. #readjanuary #setinyrcity #day13 @RealLifeReading

Day13 #readjanuary #setinyrcity I feel like I've shown most of my books set in Honolulu/Oahu on Litsy but here's two nonfiction Hawaii history books. I'm currently listening to 'Countdown to Pearl Harbor' on Overdrive (although I'm about an hour in & starting to think print would work better for me). 'Lost Kingdom'-about Lili'uokalani, the last queen & Hawaii's annexation is in my Kindle TBR stack. I like learning all I can about the history here.

This was the first series I begged my mom for as a child! Adenville,Utah where these books are set, doesn't exist. But Price, Utah is the author's home town and it's not too much of a stretch to think there's some connections between the fictional town and Price. So this is my pick for #SetInYrCity. #SetInYourCity #ReadJanuary @RealLifeReading

I have been wanting to get my hands on this book since I heard Lucian Perkins and Alec MacKaye on the Kojo Nnamdi Show on WAMU. It's been almost 4 years and I think I may finally treat myself to this book. I need this. #washingtonDC #punk #readjanuary #setinyrcity #setinyourcity

this post-apocalyptic novel (modeled by Sofia) is set in Colorado, and my hometown of Grand Junction plays a small but crucial part in the story. I liked it very much, though it did make me cry 😭🐕🌟#readjanuary #setinyrcity @RealLifeReading
