It is easier to track an animal, or a person, if it is bleeding.

I've been craving a fairytale retelling and was thrilled to stumble across this one!

I've decided to do a cleanse... a news cleanse. I'm attempting to not open any news apps this week (though I've left my breaking news alerts set so that I don't miss anything major). Instead of doom scrolling, I'm turning to Litsy. When I need to scroll, this is where I'll be 😌📚📚📚📚 Loving my current read, too (tagged)
Ugh Mondays... so glad I have a good audiobook to look forward to later. 60% in and totally hooked!

He was determined to carry them all downstairs alone.
Approximately 3 secs after this photo was taken, the books all tumbled down the stairs 😅
Let's declare this International Bury Your Head in a Book Day, cool?
I think most of us need a NOPE day, today.
And I'm not even American.
In spite of all the evidence that humanity has made great strides towards equality, empathy, and self-awareness, the most powerful country in the world once again stands for oppression, sexism, racism, and corruption.
I am as surprised as I am not at all.
And yet, my heart is broken.
I am Canadian, so while today's very big and very important US election will impact my country, the fact is I have absolutely no say in what happens down there. All I can do is sit, wait, and hope for the best (so, yeah, KAMALA PLEASE!!). That said, this audiobook is the perfect read while I practice patience. Love and patience to all you American Littens today 💖 vote, vote, vote!

The vampire‘s footsteps thudded against the pavement as he chased the girl through the back alleys and dark streets of New Sunnydale.

I don't know if this is casual racism or pointed foreshadowing of relation... but it really irks me when the only 2 black characters end up being either related or a couple 🙄
Appointment-waiting is never fun, but at least I have a fun book to keep me company. Excited to see how this Buffyverse trilogy ends and even more excited to get it in before spooky season is over 🦇🌕🦇
panThis is a tough one to review. I have a lot of mixed feelings. For the most part, this was a solid slasher filled with Halloween thrills. I was prepared to give it 4 stars... until the very last page, which made me want to scream in frustration! I'm so disappointed 😞 Now I hear that Preston does this a lot, and I am NOT here for it, so this will be my first and last of hers!

My son is a little Halloween fiend, and he can't get enough of his Halloween books 🎃📚
pickThis was such a fun ride, with thrills and twists that were both unexpected and WAY out there. Puppets have never been scarier 😳 A great Spooktober read!

It's been years since I read this #standalone zombie book, but I recall it being a very slow burn that I couldn't put down. A close examination of death and grief that stops just short of being a full zombie apocalypse story.

Not loving the narrator's voice for this character. No shade to her, but she sounds about twice the age of the character, and it's a little distracting in that I have to keep reminding myself that the character is only my age, and clawing onto that mental image.
Still, I do love Sager, and this is on my #HauntedShelf TBR, so I'm willing to power through.

What a way to start a book. I was immediately hooked. 100 pages later, and I'm still fully engaged 🖤🩸
#FirstLineFridays
Spooky bookish romance, anyone? I'm not a lover of paranormal romance in general, but this was very different from what I think of when I think of that genre. This was more like a romcom written for spooky season.

Thrilled to be bringing in fall with a new Rachel Harrison. I really enjoy her quirky horrors.
Reading a Buffyverse book on the grass at a metal concert (husband head banging at front of crowd). Life is good.
Happy Friday the 13th to the Spooky Littens 🖤
