Welcome to Litsy!

I was excited to read this follow up with the #pemberlittens crew. This time Miss Tilney & Mr Darcy are reunited during separate visits to the same area & are witnesses to the poisoning of Mrs Willoughby. They once again team up to find the killer. The mystery was less engaging this time (I suspected the murderer early on) but the slow burn romance between the two young people is really what carries thestory

I haven't had much time to get on Litsy between work and family shenanigans (why is all my out-of-town family visiting during my busiest time of year?! Get it together, people! 😂) BUT I have still been reading quite a bit, which is great because I really felt like my mojo was lacking for a couple months. This week was a mix of #LMPBC, #LOTRChapteraDay, #KindredSpiritsBuddyRead, and some random books for #Scarathlon. All were enjoyable but ⬇

I have mixed feelings about this book. The main timeline involving Connie is rather dry and condescending. Hence, my new pet peeve the witch books that are critical of modern witches trope. Connie is a researcher who studies early colonialism but for the summer, she is clearing out her mother's childhood home. The other timelines are mostly from Deliverance and Mercy, who were caught in the Salem witch trials.

A charming collection of some of Pratchett‘s early short stories.

Delightful to listen to! Varying from average Pratchett (which is still good!) to really great, we see the beginnings of Pratchett‘s wit and imagination! Gnomes in a department store, a Wild Welsh West heist, a time traveling TV, and a revolutionary ant! 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

I absolutely loved this story. It's the tale of how Jack became the Pumpkin King, and it has all the feels of the movie 🎃
Also, it has a ton of points for the #ScarathlonWordSearch.

I enjoyed these graphic novels of Edgar Alan Poe's stories. The graphics were cool and diverse. They were a fun read 🐦‍⬛

I loved both of these books. They were both really cute.
In Kitten's First Full Moon, the kitten thinks the moon is a bowl of milk and tries different ways to get to it.
In Strega Nona, good, honest help is hard to find, especially when you have a magic pot that will instantly make pasta 😸

Yesterday for #fridaythe13th, I finished reading my #scarathlon team read. It was not my favorite, as I don't enjoy cozy mysteries. The writing isn't great. I needed a lighter read, though.
