Welcome to Litsy!

I didn‘t like We Are the Ants, but I‘m giving this a chance. One book wouldn‘t define an author, right? Hopes high for this one!

My library celebrates Pride with this cute and clever installation made of freeze pops!

Bought this #boardbook for my fairy godchild for #Pride

I read this at exactly the right time and now I‘m a great big ball of FEELINGS about Colin with his eating disorder and Daniel with his homophobic family and all the ways they support one another. This isn‘t one of those drama-filled romances with lots of miscommunication and shouting matches. It‘s about two people who see and accept one another, and who discover what kind of work it takes to build something that could last. 4.5 stars.

I broke with my queer books = Queer Beer tradition so I could try this 1919 Belgian Pale Ale from Little Brown Jug. It had caramel notes but an acceptable sweetness level (ie, almost none), and it went down real smooth.

I‘m still loving this book, too. The whole series is on for $1.99 each until at least June 10th, so I might have to get the other two as well. I do love a good tattoo shop romance (I say, having completed all of one before this.)

The bad news: my Kobo still refuses to download stuff, so I guess I‘ll be reading new purchases on my phone or iPad from now on. Poop.

The good news: I‘m loving this book. It‘s also got me feeling WAY more positive about first tattoo experiences than the last tattoo shop romance I tried (NEW INK ON LIFE by Jennie Davids).

The other good news: Superstore had cartons of Clif bars on sale, so I bought my fave and ate one for lunch.

I‘ve got my book. My reading buddy‘s got his miniature log. We‘re good.

I have this dream for the future where La TBR doesn‘t exist and I always start books the very day I buy or borrow them. Tonight I‘m living at least part of that dream: I bought BACK PIECE three hours ago (thanks, $1.99 sale) and I‘m all dug in.

It WILL NOT download to my Kobo, though, so I guess I‘m gonna live the dream on my phone for now? I sure hope it‘s a temporary glitch and not the beginning of the end for my ereader.

This one has been on my TBR for ages, finally pulling it off the shelf seemed like a good way to kick off Pride month 🏳️‍🌈😃❤️I got annoyed with the story at a few points, but overall found it an enjoyable read. It was gritty but funny, like a modern Catcher in the Rye

This is the feel-good story I needed right now.

What would happen if the son of the president (a woman, by the way) fell in love with the Prince of Wales? In an election year? All. Of. The. Feels.
