TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY!!! 🥳🎉🎉🎉 I had such a great day today! I spent a lot of time in Barnes & Noble! 🤭💕 And then hubby and I went to Olive garden and I ate approximately 100 breadsticks! 🤣😂 Life is good!

The May Book of the Month choices are live! 🥳🎉🎉🎉 They have a lot of really great picks this time around! It was hard to narrow it down to just these five! 😂 What is everybody else getting? #botm

Spending a lazy afternoon with a tall glass of limeade and Brandon Sanderson! 💕📚 AHHHHHH, pure bliss!

YESSSSS! The latest book in Huang's Kings of Sin series came out today and I couldn't be happier! 💚💚💚

Spent all afternoon reading Sanderson in the park! This is the first time I've read this older work of his, and I'm absolutely loving it! 🌿💕📚 I'm also really happy to see that everything is starting to turn green and vibrant again! Hooray for Spring!

My bookstore haul! 🙈💕📚

The ARCs I came home with! 💕📚

HAPPY INDEPENDENT BOOKSTORE DAY! 🥳🎉🎉🎉 I've been so excited about this day for weeks now! I got up extra early and went to my two favorite local indie bookstores - Schuler Books and Road Less Traveled Books! It was a blast! They had a ton of free ARCs they were handing out, lots of other goodies, and of course I came home with a huge stack of new books! 🤭📚💕 What a great day! #indiebookstore #independentbookstoreday

I am so so so happy! 💕 Today is the start of my 10-day vacation! Next week is my birthday! 🤭 I'm going to spend the whole thing reading, eating snacks, visiting bookstores, and running around the park! 🌿📚 I decided to kick off the festivities by picking up lunch (chicken shawarma! 🤤) and eating at the park! It's a beautiful day!

Happy Emily Henry Day for everyone who celebrates! 🥳🎉💕

Okay, I really really loved this! I feel like it definitely needs more hype because it was such a fantastic urban fantasy! 💕📚 #catsoflitsy #jupiterjazz

Happy Easter, Litsy family! 🩷🐰📚🩷

Okay, after reading the first book in this series, I can see why it's getting so much hype! I really loved it a lot!

Sinking into a new Olivie Blake book is always so delightful! I'm only about 80 pages in and I'm already hooked! 😍

Reading Robin Wall Kimmerer's new book outside in the woods really is a perfect way to spend a Friday afternoon! 🌿☀️

This book came at me as sort of a surprise. A co-worker was reading it and mentioned that she thought I might like it. I had never heard of it before, but as soon as I started reading it I was hooked! Definitely helped cure some religious trauma, which I was not expecting! This book is phenomenal! If you have ever felt like an outsider, and especially if you have ever been a queer kid growing up in a super religious family - this book is for you!

The Book of the Month choices dropped this morning! 🥳🎉🎉🎉 This is what I chose, and one of them was free because April is my birthday month! What did everyone else pick? 💕📚 #botm

"Journey before destination..."

I finally finished this, and I am just a roller coaster of emotions! Truly devastating and yet filled with joy and hope. This series has always meant a lot to me, not just because of how much I love Sanderson, but also because each book of The Stormlight Archive I have read with my bestie, @DaveGreen7777 !

So in the last couple of weeks I've discovered this manga and I absolutely fell in love with it! It's called The Summer Hikaru Died and while it's technically classified as horror it's so much more than that! And also, the artwork is absolutely gorgeous! 🥰

Oops! I was determined to leave the bookstore with only one new purchase... well, you can see how that turned out! 🤭📚

I wandered into my local bookstore after work yesterday, and found this really cool sign hanging up! 🥰📚

My March Goldsboro book arrived! I've actually been really wanting to read this book anyway, so I'm excited to start it! And look at those gorgeous page edges! 😍 #goldsboro #goldsborobooks

I've reached page 1100! 🎉🎉🎉 Only 250 pages to go! 📚 This book is destroying me in the best way possible!

It's here! 🎉🎉🎉 Pretty much dropping everything to start reading this!

So I did a thing and ended up ordering this box set! I remember reading the first few books when they first came out and loved them! Now that a new book in the series is coming out next month I decided that it might be a fun time to revisit the series! 💕📚

I was at Subway the other day and saw this picture of a book made out of cheese hanging up on the wall and got WAY too much amusement out of it!😂📖🧀 A book made out of cheese?! What's not to love?! 🤤

Sunshine, FINALLY! ☀️ Also, I think this is definitely my new favorite Kingfisher book! It's amazing! 📚

The best part about having a weekend off from work is getting to spend it reading! 💕📚 The kitties have also been very grateful for all the cuddles this weekend! Happy Sunday, littens! #catsoflitsy #jupiterjazz

Ava Reid's new YA dystopian book just came out this week too! I love everything she's written so far, so I'm really excited to start this! Also, look at those page edges! 😍📚

EEEEEEK! THE THIRD BOOK IS FINALLY HERE! 💜💜💜

I was so excited to see the Book of the Month choices today! 🥳🎉🎉🎉 I absolutely could not resist the pretty page edges of The God of the Woods! Do I already own a copy of it? Yes! 😂 But that's okay, because the new one will have pretty pink pages! 🤭💕 What did everyone else end up ordering? #botm

I decided I wanted to reread books one and two in the series since the third one comes out next week! 📚💕 I'm super excited! Sometimes when you revisit a series you find it loses some of the magic, but in the case of this book every time I read it I am more and more amazed and entranced by it! I honestly think this is one of the best YA series I have ever read! 🤩

So I got the Barnes & Noble special edition for The Rose Bargain, because I liked the color change on the cover, but I had no idea that the end papers were so beautiful too! 😍🩷🌹

Despite the snow, I ended up going to Barnes & Noble over the weekend! 💕📚 TOTALLY WORTH IT! 🥰

Happy Valentine's Day, littens! 🩷❤️🩷❤️

YES! I can't believe I'm reading the final book in this trilogy! I'm so excited! So far I'm totally hooked! 💕📚

I feel like the last couple of weeks have been really rough. And why does 2025 feel like it has already lasted a decade?! 😵‍💫 So I'm very grateful to have off today and the weekend too! Of course, no long weekend is complete without a trip to the bookstore! Books always make everything better 🤭💕

My happy place! 🩷📖📚

LOOK WHAT CAME OUT TODAY! BEST DAY EVER! 🩷🩷🩷

I think this is Random Riggs first book since his Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children series! I was never a huge fan of that series, but this one is absolutely fantastic so far! Also, how did I never know before that he is married to another awesome YA author - Tahereh Mafi!? 😱 So very cool!

Pretty much obsessed with these covers! 💛💜💛💜 The second book (tagged) came out today, and I pre-ordered it to spite not having read the first one yet! 🤭 I have a hard time resisting pretty covers!

The absolute BEST day of the month is when the Book of the Month choices drop! 🥳🎉 This month was very interesting in that I definitely picked more from the add-ons section then from the regular monthly picks! This is what I chose for february! Not included in the picture is the tagged book, because it wouldn't fit on the screen! 😂🤭💕

What did everyone else choose for this upcoming month? #botm

More snow! 🩵❄️🩵

This was a recent impulse purchase that I couldn't resist because of the cover! 🤭

Who wore it better? 🤔🐉🖤🩶🤍

Did I stay up until 3:00am just to order the Target special edition of Onyx Storm even though I already had the deluxe edition? Yes. Yes, I did! 🤭💕

Okay, so the main difference for the outside is that the Target edition has a different image on the page edges, has gold letters for the title, and is overall more metallic looking!

ONYX STORM! 🖤🩶🤍🖤🩶🤍

I went to the midnight release on Monday night and it was SO MUCH FUN! They had games, trivia, coloring stations, and all kinds of other fun stuff! 🐉 They also gave us all goody bags that had stickers and a dragon pin! 📖

Bubble tea and Grady Hendrix! 📖💕🧋

HAPPY NATIONAL DRAGON DAY!!! 🐉 📖 🐉 📖

January 16th is the BEST day of January, in my opinion! 😋 What are some of your favorite dragon books?

I have two more videos featuring favorite books I read in 2024! One highlighting thrillers and the other highlighting romance! ❤ 📚

My happy place! 🥰📚📚📚

Had two doctor appointments today. Ugh. Nothing's wrong, they were just regular checkup things. Still, I felt entitled to some little treats afterwards - which included a trip to McDonald's and then the bookstore! 🤭💕📚

I'm almost finished with my re-read of Iron Flame before Onyx Storm comes out next week!
