Welcome to Litsy!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Reading this book for the 3rd time,but with the knowledge of what follows in Silver Flames,made this almost a completely different experience.I found it more emotional than before,&I am still just as glad that there are many more pages with these characters to read.With this series,I read the 1st so fast to get to book 2,&then book 2 is just so good, I can't read it slowly.This one slows me down a bit, but I wish there was more to savor.

I have high hopes for this upcoming month, and plan to average 3 books a day.😅 Overly ambitious? Probably, but I couldn‘t narrow down my list anymore, so I‘ll just try to read them all! 😂

Currently listening to the tagged audio, then onto a few mystery/thrillers before the month is up. February first brings all the romance for the start of #Loveathon.

January 30th to February 5th #weeklyforecast

Finished all but the 24 hour tagged audio, so I‘ll be bringing it into next week. These were read for #sharreadathon #20in4 & #Jumpstart2023.

They also counts towards various challenges: #ReadtheRainbow #SayMyName #MonthlyMayhem #ISpyBingo #SeriesLove2023 #Buzzwordathon #Foodie2023 #CozyReads2023 #ReadySetRead #AtoZlgbtq+ #DigitalCleanout

Just read this series, you will NOT regret it

#booksculpture it didn‘t turn out how I wanted to, so I took a new approach! I didn‘t have enough space to make a heart out of books. So I made hearts. Out of book pages. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I can only listen to audiobooks while doing mindless things so I‘ve been listening to this since October. SO ready to be done with it so yesterday I fired up my Kindle for the first time in quite while and now I‘m reading it with my eyeballs as well. The sync functionality between the two is fantastic! This is the first time I‘ve ever read and listened to the same thing at the same time. (This is a reread before I read ACOSF for the 1st time.)

I must say, I‘m quite surprised to have liked this book more than I thought I would! Can‘t wait to see what‘s in store…

..what we think to be our greatest weakness can sometimes be our biggest strength.

I would have waited five hundred more years for you. A thousand years. And if this was all the time we were allowed to have...The wait was worth it.

#20 Court of Wings & Ruin Finished!

Besides this being a chunkster, it felt necessary compared to the previous. Last two pages were superrrr corny but they deserve it after everything. Not cool Sarah, you know what you did! Scaring me like that. The battle was emotional, wholesome seeing who aids & powerful. Everything was interwoven so well. Rollercoaster of a ride.

This was so much fun! I had forgotten how much fun this kind of easy fast phased books can be! This is quite a big book but it went by really fast. I enjoyed the story and would like to read more similar type of books.

If I read the term “mate” or “vulgar gesture” one more time I was going to burn the book. I try to cut YA slack because it‘s….YA. But this book was annoying. The plot line was great. But these characters made me nuts. I‘ll finish the series but I can‘t wait until I‘m done

#17 Court of Wings & Ruin Ch 30 - 43 #doublespin
#18 Court of Wings & Ruin Ch 44 - 54

Hybern attacks Summer Court only the Night Court helps. All high lords come to the meeting even Tamlin who only insults Feyre.🙄 Antitode to counter Faebane is made but heavily questioned. Pieces of what is going on with Elain start to get put together. Some BIG things happen, the battle will begin. More in comments.

I honestly feel like this series just gets better and better. Absolutely a page turner, and a fantastic choice for my summer vacation.

#16 - Court of Wings & Ruin Ch 21 - 29

Feyre visits the Bone Carver to negotiate, wants the Mirror of Ouroboros in exchange. Mostly about gathering allies from each court for the upcoming war. I‘m in the middle section where a lot of what happens atm will be used/discussed during the major climax if the trend continues from the past two books. Elains state is about the same & Nesta‘s training has begun.

Fav of the series! slay

Every Christmas I buy these handmade chocolates to eat while reading. This is my this year's selection! These are sooo good! 😍😋

This is the 3rd book in the Court of Thorns and Roses series. It's such an awesome series!

First book of the year.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

Train reading. 🚂🚃🚃🚃

Going home from spending Christmas at my parent's home.

Lunch & reading at the cafeteria 📚😋

My favourite reading time and set up! Christmas night, tea and chocolate! 😍 I'm sooo glad that I chose this book as my Christmas reading this year! It's so full of action and I have really missed the world and characters.

Feyra‘s back at the Spring Court pretending to love Tamlin, while gathering information on Hybern‘s plans. She has to return to the Night Court at some point, but how? Will she escape before the war?
This 1 was also a great read. I enjoyed getting to know more about the secondary characters. I also liked how some other characters came into the war against Hybern. I definitely liked the ending, despite the sad parts that came with it.

Going to my parents place for Christmas. 🎄

Wanted to take something easy and fun with me to read during the holidays. This is also big enough to last the whole week. 😁

Early Christmas gift 🎁

As before…some parts I liked some a I didn‘t! Nesta isn‘t one of my favorites though!

This is one heck of a series. Leading up to anticipated events, thowing curveballs left, right and center, SJM draws such an imaginative world that you feel every colour, texture and emotion. A rollercoaster of pages flying by! Just when you can't see any hope, the devastation is too much, she makes your eyes leak just a little bit more!

Book 3 is all over the place - in a good way! It picks up soon after the end of #2.

My complaint is the timeline is too fast. Books 2&3 take less than a year. In that time she gets combat skills, figures out high level magic, masters political maneuvering, and handles the trauma thrown at her. Too much too fast, yet it's all a ton of fun. I love the characters, the maneuvering, the world building. Just suspend a little disbelief on timelines. 🙂

Love this series so far!

Library hold finally came in! On to the next!

Probably my favorite book in the series so far.

Whoa! This one just about gave me heart failure! This third installment of the series felt like nonstop action. I‘m not including any spoilers, but I did not see several aspects of the final battle coming. I definitely need a breather before the next book.

I think this was my favorite of the series yet! The characters and their intertwining relationships are so compelling, sharp, and full of emotion. I‘m not usual a fantasy reader, but these are so well written, they keep me coming back for more. Are they a little predictable? Sure. But I love them all the same! And this is my 200th book of 2022 and a 699 pg one at that! And gave me my 6th #BookspinBingo @Thea

I started the latest Verity Kent mystery, but @Alisnazzy handed this to me last night, and I‘m having a hard time putting it down.

Tackling this doorstop! #currentread #chunkster

What do we do for love? Reading books we don't like for example.

These kind of books just aren't my kind of jam. So I just read this book because Wifey gave it to me. TBH, after a few hundert pages I actually thought it wasn't as bad as expected, and that I could read the following books as well.

But then it all got so ridiculous. I wasn't sure if I should laugh at this Hunger Games mock-off or simply cry. No offense to those who like it!

I like this series so far, not as much as her other ones but it is good. Now Nesta is about to drive me crazy!

Tried to read A Court of Thorns and Roses again today and dnf to be honest just won't catch my attention fast enough

Wow. I‘m wiping away the tears from my face as I write this but honestly, a beautiful story. I experienced so many emotions and I‘m content. I know I still have two other books to read but wow.

This book was outstanding! It really hit all the feelings. #acowr #booknerd

I have been reading this for two months and while I enjoyed the first two in this series, l am going to tap out. I like the relationships developed in the prior novels, but everything in this one is very big and very anticlimactic. I read a summary and I guess this isn‘t my thing even though I really wanted it to be. #bookjournal (How do you guys deal with DNF shame? Because I am feeling it right now.)
