pickI have very mixed feelings about this book. I love architecture and World Fairs, but I wasn‘t the biggest fan of The Devil in the White City. It was good, it just took me a while to read because of the other books I read at the same time as it and because of that the pacing of the book was a bit off.
3.5/5 ⭐️
(I finished this around a week ago but just never got around to posting about it)
pickI absolutely loved this book! It was a great, action-packed #diversereads with beautiful writing. Now I need to wait all the way to June before the next book in the series is released.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
I managed to read 4 books this January... I wish I could have read more, but 4 is still a pretty good start! I am also halfway done with both Children of Blood and Bone and The Devil in the White City.
Starting Children of Blood and Bone at my local Starbucks today with a Chai Latte!
pick“The sky was a dying fire, embers turning to ash, as night settled quietly over the great Kalahari.”
Well, this was a fun, action-packed quick read! I read the other two books in this series around a year ago, and I was hesitant to pick this one up, but I ended up enjoying the plot and overall story.

pickI loved Muse of Nightmares! Laini Taylor uses beautiful language and imagery, and I never wanted the book to end! I would completely recommend this novel!

pickMy first 2019 read! This is one of my favorite books ever written by my favorite First Lady! Michelle Obama is truly an inspiration.

I just signed up for the #LitsyAtoZ challenge! I‘m super excited to try for my first ever reading challenge and I am really determined to complete it. Thanks, @BookishMarginalia , for organizing this challenge!
Looking back at 2018, I‘m pretty proud about how many books I was able to read. For 2019, my goal is going to be 41 books. Of course I would love to read more than 41, but as long I make improvement on how much I read this year, I‘m happy with that! Happy New Year‘s Eve!

so-soI just finished Wildcard by Marie Lu! It wasn‘t my favorite book ever (but it was still good!) and I liked the first book in its duology better. Now time to read Paper Towns by John Green!
Merry Christmas!!! 🎁🎄🎁
There is nothing better than starting the day with a cat and a book! #CatsofLitsy #Cat
After a month of waiting, I finally get to read Marie Lu‘s sequel to Warcross, Wildcard!
So glad to have helped vote one of my favorite books of 2018, Obsidio, into 6th place in the Goodreads Choice Award! Which books did you vote for?
Overall, I liked Insurgent more than the previous book in its series. I found the political drive of Insurgent very interesting, and though there was less action than in Divergent, I still thought that it had the appropriate amount of action for balancing the plot.
There‘s nothing better than going into a store to see shelves full of old books!
My TBR for the next couple of weeks:
-Insurgent by Veronica Roth
-Allegiant by Veronica Roth
-Paper Towns by John Green
-The Hazel Wood by Melissa Albert
📚Happy reading!📚
