Welcome to Litsy!

It‘s hot today, so Daisy decided she‘d rather sleep than perform her reading buddy duties while I finally started my KINGDOM OF ASH reread. I should be able to finish it by the end of the month, but I‘ve got a big, distracting project on the go and the book‘s pushing 1000 pages, so maybe it‘ll carry through into August. We‘ll see. I remember it being tough to put down at the denouement.

Phew ... I've finished the 'Throne of Glass' series! It's definitely not ACOTAR, for me, but I do get why people love it so much. I found the sheer amount of battle scenes a bit too much, too intense .... I kept having to set it down to take a break. I like the softer character moments in between the pain and brutality ... Maybe that's why I like ACOTAR more ...that and Rhysand is Henry Cavill in my head 😘

Whew… I FINALLY finished this tandem read. It was so long, but so so good. I‘m taking a little breather before I jump into finishing out the series though.

Morning, I hope everyone is having a lovely summer (it hasn't stopped raining in NI). However, I'm reading lots of good books and getting lots of snuggles from my kids and kittens. I hope you are too... wherever you are 💕

If any group of people can appreciate my mug, it‘s on here. It‘s a coffee and ghost show kind of morning 👻…

Well, finished this today. Another entertaining read. Do I just keep going with the series or take a break and read something else? We‘ll see what I‘m feeling tonight when I go to bed and want to read.

How do you end a 5,600 page saga? With battles, love, epic goodbyes, & so much more. I‘ve loved reading about these characters & I‘ll miss them. I loved the character growth & felt like they had wonderful arcs from beginning to end. One thing about the TOG series, is that I really didn‘t enjoy the 1st book until the end & it took me a little bit of the 2nd to really get into the series. It‘s totally worth it but don‘t give up on it too soon.

I forgot to mention that I finished this and just went straight into Assassin‘s Blade. Yes…I am a publishing order kind of gal. But, another enjoyable read. These are definitely holding my interest.

I loved it!! Now on to the next one 🙌🙏

Onward over breakfast! I didn‘t get a huge amount of reading time yesterday since I did a bunch of pre-birthday stuff with my family (including a Chinese feast and a trip to IKEA, where this rainbow cake‘s full purchase price went to support queer refugees who hope to settle in Canada), but it‘s raining today and my job got cancelled so I hope to make up for that. I‘m feeling very just-one-more-chapter about my TOWER OF DAWN reread.
