Welcome to Litsy!

As always, I‘m grateful for my kitties, Sadie and Nicky. 😻 They just turned 12, and Nicky is having some health challenges, but they‘re still the best reading buddies ever. #catsoflitsy

Thanks for the tag, @eggs 😸

Adventures in weeding. I tried reading the Warrior series and DNF after 5 pages. Maybe I should start with book 5? I almost never read a whole series.

If you know, you know!!!! 🐈😽📚💳

(But, this is what my husband and I refer to as returning books to the library…dropping them off in the Dewey Box)!

This is a weird book. And it is about how cats tamed us. However, I think it's rather hard on cats, and I refuse to believe that Druzy's only interest in me is that I feed her. The historical parts are rather fascinating. The little cat in the corner is the felis silvestris lybica, the most direct ancestor of the housecat. Unlike dog breeds, different cat breeds are the result of breeding mutations, not different ancestors 🐈

June turned out to be a reasonably good month for reading after all. I had my doubts a few times! Starter Villain was my favorite, though there were some other contenders.

I finished Cocaine Blues in the wee hours of the morning and enjoyed it. Entertaining and compelling, while also addressing some serious issues that unfortunately persist today.

I almost skipped this month because this seemed way outside what I typically enjoy. But I decided to give it a try and found it to be a lot of fun. It's a quick, lighthearted, quirky read that gave me Megamind and Despicable Me vibes. Genius cats, foul-mouthed dolphins demanding unionization, and a secret volcanic island lair all make for a bizarre and clever adventure. #AuthorAMonth @Soubhiville

Charlie is in a really shitty place in life when he hears his super wealthy, estranged uncle died. Then, his uncle‘s assistant shows up on his doorstep to ask him to host the funeral.
This sets off a series of events that Charlie could never imagine including spy cats, guard dolphins in the middle of a labor dispute, and a secret society of villains who all know his name.

Audiobooks narrated by Wil Wheaton are always a yes for me.

The 6th level takes the crawlers to the Hunting Grounds, where the universe‘s wealthiest families and organizations can send members to kill crawlers with abandon.
But they‘ve never met Carl before. He makes it his personal mission to kill as many hunters as possible, which paints an even bigger target on his back and makes things uncomfortable when crawlers and hunters meet at the Butcher‘s Masquerade right before the floor collapses.

Doing much better now. 🤍

If I hadn‘t left
you when I did, I‘d still be lost —
alone in the snow.
