Welcome to Litsy!

#LittensLoveSJM #ToG Queen of Shadows Ch.11-20: A lot to unpack in our chapters. First, when your suspicious and smelly “allies” wants to experiment on you with demons from another world - you say no. Hands down, claws out. Manon needs to find a way out of this mess or all the witches will pay. Her grandmother sending threats through the mail is annoying. Down with grandma! ⬇️

Last week was so bonkers I didn‘t make it to the library for this book until Tuesday ( yesterday) and I‘m finally sitting down to a cup of tea to start it so I can go back and comment on Monday‘s #littenslovesjm post

repost for @StayCurious

#LittensLoveSJM #ToG book 4 We‘re back with the main story and it‘s a long one with 89 chapters, over 600 pages. I decided in order to take some of the pressure off the #buddyread, I would “assign” 10 chapters a week and we would check in once a week, on Mondays. This will take us to end of November but of course you can read at your own pace, as always. Please let me know if you want to join in - all are welcome!

#LittensLoveSJM #ToG #QueenofShadows Ch.1-10: wow what a great first few chapters - I‘m hooked! I like seeing Aelin try to cope with all the recurring characters of her past (Arobynne, Chaol, Lysandra - and memories of Sam - and of course Aedion). Coming back to Rifthold is a lot for her. I feel terrible for Dorian. Will he be able to break free of his father and the Valg? And I still dislike Chaol. A lot. ⬇️

Brunch and a book! #throneofglass @StayCurious #littenslovesjm

Finished my reread.

This is the 1st Maas book out of the 9 I‘ve now read that I genuinely enjoyed. But darn, it should not take until the 5th book in a series to feel invested…also, there definitely are some plot choices that feel weaker than they should given the build-up. P.S. peep those lil toe beans!

1. Got the tagged book back from the library with minimal down time.
2. Went to a car show finally.
3. Got some good photos too.
4. Kelly Bishop's autobiography is in for me to pick up.
5. My craft feed on bluesky is almost NSFW free.

Going in the mail this weekend. #autumncomfortswap

just finished getting my book recs together for my #autumncomfortswap match! some finishing touches then it will be off to the post office.

My pumpkins have sprouted (two of four). And my tomatoes have settled in nicely. Now all I have to do is monitor my empty garden patch until I can get some high strength acetic acid to kill off the last of the thistle.

Edit: all four pumpkins have now sprouted!!!!

I feel like this series just gets better with each instalment. The tension in this one was peak, with so many secrets and mysteries coming to fruition and being uncovered. Celaena/Aelin really comes into her own and claims the power meant to be hers; Manon struggles to find her true path; NOTHING is how it seemed at all. An excellent read , and SJM always ramps it up so much at the end so that you can‘t wait to get to the next book.

I am in Rifthold (QoS) and LA/New York (funny thing happened on the way to the future). #whereareyoumonday

This series keeps getting better with each book. I loved the growth of the characters and the continuing of the series. I rated the book a 4 out of 5 stars.

Fantastic on audio

Next audible

5/5 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕

I crochet, watch movies and shows, I have great set up on blue sky for interest based feeds. Right now I'm keeping up with American Idol.
I recommend reading something fluffy.

Love love love

🔥 best book in the TOG series so far! “You make me want to live, Rowan. Not survive; not exist. Live.”

Did i stay entirely way too late to finish this? Yes. Was it worth it? Yes. Those last 100 pages again. Up and down with my emotions.

I have been listening to this series on libby. Well my library doesnt have all of them. So i guess i will read it. Lol

So, again, the french edition is two books for the 4th in the series... But the cover is gorgeous :)

Another good one. I‘m going to take another breather from the series…just for a minute!

Finally…silence.

I loved this book. To me it's the best in this series so far and they are all good.

I know this is a constant subject…..but abraxos IS Toothless. I can‘t get over it 😂😂 also queen of shadows is utter chaos.

Book break from a touristy day in porto. We are more interested in our books than the port wine.

5/5 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕

Absolutely loving reading this series. I got very grumpy with anything which took me away from reading this. Manon is probably one of the highlights of this book - such a great character with amazing development. Need the next one ASAP!

This book is pretty much an adrenaline rush from beginning to end. So much action, so many reveals, some unexpected turns. I find myself drawn to so many of the characters, even some of the less sympathetic ones. This does not stand on its own; it won‘t make sense if you‘re not reading the series in order. And oh, am I looking forward to the next book!

There are about a hundred other books I SHOULD be reading today - but all I've wanted to do was finish my reread of this book! 🤭💕📚 #catsoflitsy #rumpel #littenkitten

I spend a lot of time sitting in doctor‘s offices with my hubby these days, but at least I‘m getting a lot of reading done. I am so hooked on this series. Trying not to binge read—I‘ve made a deal with myself to read at least one other book before I start the next in the series.

One of the most frustrating things about the early parts of this series is how often the young women dismiss each other as shallow, vapid bimbos who automatically qualify as The Enemy.

One of the best things about its later parts is how they realize this is bullshit and they team up to support each other and maybehopefully save the world.

I finally finished all the novels I had out from the library (and, sadly, bounced off a thriller I purchased a couple months back and really looked forward to), so it‘s on to QUEEN OF SHADOWS! Jade‘s sister, Ivy, is a solid reading buddy for this one, since she avoids household sunbeams at all costs. Give her a shadowy napping nook and she‘s a happy, happy girl.

Have been waiting for all that goes on in this book for a long, long time, and SJM delivered!!! This is the best one yet from the TOG series. More there is to come and cannot wait to see how it develops. Again I must say Aelin is one of my role models, my hero.

So intense!

FULL REVIEW: https://abookandateacup.blogspot.com/2018/11/review-queen-of-shadows.html

about half way through! so good so far. i can't put it down

Anddd 20 pages into Queen of Shadows!

Chugging along and now starting the 4th book in the Throne of Glass series. I'm really getting into it now.

Holy frick. I‘m at a loss of words. So much happened and I soaked it all up. The last books were incredible world building for this one to go full blast the whole time without any real confusion or hiccup. Usual Maas manner, built up to final 100 pages. Though here, it was earlier. I adore Rowan and am glad Chaol is over himself. Did not expect this glorious book to be so GOOD. Still not sure on Manon. I love Lysandra. #sjm
THAT ENDING TWIST 😱
