Welcome to Litsy!

This could have been a brilliant, sharply observed satire. There are moments of brilliance, where the author takes a pop at giant corporates and corrupt politicians, but running through the novel is the protagonists lewd thoughts, and vulgar sex scenes. Perhaps I‘m too prudish, but they dragged down both the tone and the pace of the book.

This was my #BookSpin read, glad it‘s off the TBT!

My #BookSpin and #DoubleSpin selection for December

We started rearranging furniture, had to empty out the bookshelves. I embraced the opportunity to re-sort my books. It will be fun to categorize them properly, I said.
It has now been a week and I have lost steam. I forsee things staying this way for quite a while.

Back to the depths of my TBR stacks I go—tagged book is next up. Love the cover!

This is what happens when I find a thrift store in the city over the weekend. I come out with a pile of books in a mini #bookhaul to add to the #TBR mountain. All for $8. #newin #bookworm ❤️📚⛰️😂

I noticed a trend. I am officially enforcing a book buying ban. 🤔😜🤐

Today‘s #GrabandGo book and a little treat to start the day. With the archaeology volume I wrote/edited going to layout next week and the YA book festival I worked on over and done, I have a little time to decompress. Better yet, the dusting of snow on the ground is melting, the sun is shining, the birds are warbling and I think, at long last, spring is in the air! ❄️☀️🐥🌸

A year ago, a friend passed me his unwanted books. He knew that I would adopt them without questions. I have them under my desk at work for the longest time, and now it‘s time for them to come home with me.

Do you see anything interesting? All of sudden, my TBR has gone wild!!!
