Welcome to Litsy!

I have posted this before but with it being New Year's Eve I simply couldn't resist. Happy New Year's Eve, Littens!

This collection of humorous literary comics is an absolute delight! Read my mini review here: https://debbybrauer.org/#revenge-of-the-librarians

Highly recommended.

Gotta love it when an author and publisher both commit to a finished product 🤩😂

This is really witty, I really enjoyed it. Is it too early to be reminiscing about lockdown and laughing about it? Nah. And I loved the library card.

There can't be a book of cartoons out there more perfect for Littens. I laughed. I guffawed. I snorted. So bookish and silly and at times dorky. Love love loved. The attached cartoon is one of my favorites NOT in the book. Published in The Guardian.

Very good. Funny and very observant of book lovers and authors. Nice book to dip in and out of.

This was a treat I got for myself, and it came in handy on a sick day while I was pretending to miss being at work.

OMG it has a library card I love it

Book post is best post

So much fun. 😊
Pithy, silly, occasionally sweet.
Mostly strips about writing and reading books.
Might have to buy this one for my teeny tiny personal collection.
⚠️ A few strips allude to/mention the pandemic/quarantine, they're gently trying to find the humor, but easily skippable if you have trouble with mentions of such.

Librarian-God Schussh! 😁

I want them all!!!

The inside front cover and I'm already having the best time. 😆

Back in stock in the UK on Amazon!

A fun collection of cartoons celebrating books and authors -- definitely worth flipping through!

Ordered this in October. 🙈

How much do I love Tom Gauld? Sooooooooo much! ❤️🧡❤️

👀

As far as currently working cartoonists with literary themes, Gauld is my favorite. Baking with Kafka has long been a treasured volume & although I have previously read several of the pieces collected here, it is fantastic to have a new collection. I checked this one out and will absolutely be buying a copy for my personal library. Gauld gets all of the quirks in a reader's life like few other illustrators manage.

Most accurate year in reading chart I've seen 📚📚

(I‘d watch the movie adaptation)

My husband found this little gem. I must admit I am excited to have it in my office at the library. 🥰

After a bad storm that closed all the roads into my parents‘ town for 2+ days, we were finally able to celebrate Christmas yesterday. The books under the tree were worth the wait!

Tom Gauld is not wrong 😂

A fun collection of literary comics about bibliophiles, classic novels, writing life and covid rules as applied to literary characters. I chuckled at several and related hard to some. Very fun afternoon.

This is my new favorite books! 🤣😂📚💕 If you haven't read it yet, you must fix that immediately! It's filled with hilarious bookish cartoons!

A tiring, but happy, birthday. My sister knows me so well; this was her present that I opened while wearing my hobbit skirt that she got me last year:)

This is a really fun book of cartoons about books and writing. I enjoyed it immensely. Book humor, hooray! 🥳

I love it when I forget I preordered a book!

Tom Gauld has spoken. I'm thrilled that there's a new collection of his literary cartoons being released in a couple of months. Also, considering the shit that librarians have had to put up with for far too long, this is a fantastic title!!
