Welcome to Litsy!

My October TBR list. I have no chance of reading them all as I'm a slow reader, but those are the ones I'm excited about and am going to be choosing from.
I made a list of 48, as that's 24x2 and therefore fits for the #TwinPeaksReadingChallenge

The first 20 are my #Bookspin list for #October
I'm also participating in #Spookoween
#31by31 with the goal of reading at least 31 hours in October,
#GottaCatchEmAll and #PumpkabooHunt
🍂🍁🎃🍂🍁🎃

My #WeeklyForecast includes books for:

* #SeriesLove2024
* #NancyDrewBR (playing catch up)
* #BookSpin
* #readyourebooks
* #Roll100
* #readyourTBR

This is book four of a series and the only one I have read. It worked for me as a stand-alone. I liked the story but wished it had more depth. 3.5 ⭐️
I liked enough to read more books in the series.

I loved this month's #BookSpin book, but I'm bailing on my #DoubleSpin pick, which is also my #SeasonalCozies book. There are too many extremely far-fetched storylines based around the main character, and I realized I didn't care about any of them. 😐

My #BookSpin for September was a lot of fun. I could see it being made into a movie. I loved the Star Trek jokes/references. It was a great last book of #SciFiSummer for me (even though the reading challenge doesn't end until the 21st) and a great light-hearted start to #RIPXIX (even though I've already got a fair number of short stories under my belt for that reading challenge).

5/5⭐ I received an eARC in exchange for an honest review.

This Medea is a fully realized character that pays homage to her place in ancient Greek literature but also speaks to a modern audience. The book is a compelling combination of magic, action, relationships, introspection, & character growth (albeit in an atypical direction). #bookspin

Finished reading my #BookSpin pick, which means another #BookSpinBingo book completed in September... this is definitely a better reading month than last month! 😁 @TheAromaofBooks

This was a fun read, and a nod to all of the rom-com tropes we love and why we rely on them for a great story!

I love Melissa Etheridge‘s earlier albums, and didn‘t know much about her personal life going in to this. I had no idea this was her second memoir, and I didn‘t even know she‘d had 4 children.
It was interesting hearing bits of what she was going through when some songs I love were written. And the audio has a lot of little live acoustic clips of her songs.
Overall though, this was just so-so for me. May interest bigger fans more.
Check triggers!

Thanks @LiteraryinLawrence for recommending this book! I really loved it on audio, & I learned so much about the disabled world. I didn‘t realize I needed to learn so much, which connects to a lot of her points. This is a memoir through essays with education. What bothered me the most is her story about disabled people being seen as defects. I wish everyone would read this book. The other books recommended will go on my TBR. #bookspin for sept
