Welcome to Litsy!

W/ the entire family on vacation in Scotland, Peter was just hoping for some relaxing time on the beach. Then a maybe selkie is found dead, a mysterious panther is stalking sheep, & Abigail gets a crush. So business as usual.

Lots of fun, great humor, & fascinating world building, it feel like we skipped a book w/ the time jump. & there were just too many characters that felt incidental. & I did not get invested in Abigail‘s romance. 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

I reread my (2nd hand) H. P. books, because I needed something familiar and comforting to accompany me through tough times. As much as I like the stories and some of the characters, I can only leave a negative review - not because of the plot holes/mistakes, but because I can't understand how someone can write characters/relationships like these and go on to spread so much hate, in a way that would make Voldemort proud. JKR deserves no support.

So much more going on in here than I remembered!
Nutt, firstly his entire existence, but also his actual identity.
How difficult it is to recognize your own worth, especially when fighting internalized and systematized prejudice, how you were raised as much as how people react to you in the present. 1/?

Can attest: I also find math sneaky. ☺️

Hagrid lives near me. Who knew?! 🤣

Happy Tuesday! ☺️😉

Another reread/listen of this first book! My husband is not a huge reader but loved this series as a kid, so I convinced him to start the audiobook with me on a road trip. He really enjoyed it! Of course I couldn‘t wait for our next road trip to finish it (and him needing us to listen on 1x normal speed was killing me), so I listened to the rest on my own. Still holds up!

Another amazing installment from the Dresden files. This one was nonstop action, even for Harry Dresden. I also loved the new crop of side characters, who I hope will be recurring. Can‘t wait to pick up the next one!

Rivers of London books read so fast, which is a nice change before diving back into medieval gender.
I enjoyed this one despite the comparative dearth of local history (there was still some), I had missed Peter's sense of humor. Still a little formulaic, and I feel like too little work was put into the twins.
