Welcome to Litsy!

Everything that Littens have said about this book is true! I need more of Greta and Valdin…and Xabi and Linsh and everybody in this splendid book. 💜

I am loving everything about this book! I'm desperately going to need more cozy sci-fi in my life!

A nice collection about all sorts of existential and global crises. You have to not worry about if you accept the worldview to enjoy it, because it‘s ideological.

It‘s cool in terms of the forms used…inspirational really. I could feel Choi pushing herself to come up with new ways of writing.

It also has a great balance between experimental and more accessible. Way to go!

I don't read a lot of poetry, and I won't pretend that I understood everything in this collection. But I really appreciated the way these poems were written and the glimpses you get of the author's struggles with being indigenous & trans, internally & interpersonally, and growing up in foster care. It also made me want to listen to Florence + the Machine, which I'm not mad about

This week‘s library haul consists of the final volume of FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST and some exciting stuff for Gay May. I‘m amazed the librarians processed A SWEET STING OF SALT so quickly. They normally drag their feet on anything genre, but I guess they‘ve decided this one‘s literary enough to merit better treatment.

Then again, THE BAKER AND THE BARD has been out less than two months, too. Maybe they‘ve checked their genre processing bias. #gaymay

THIS WAS ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE. not only was it a GREAT horror read, it followed an autistic trans lead character, was all about trans and womens rights and just had me engaged every step of the way. The plot twists weren‘t incredibly surprising but they were satisfying. I ripped through this one!!!!

Book 78/100 of the year.

I actually just finished this YA Victorian horror novel and it perfectly fits today‘s #springskies prompt since the main protagonist is a transmasc autistic teen. #neurodivergent
This was really well done if brutal and touches on so many very modern issues that the historical setting only helped to highlight. I‘ve been on a YA-avoidance kick lately, but I‘m happy the cover of this one made me dive in anyway.

#LitsyLove members… one more week to work on your April #LitsyLoveBingo boards! Have fun!

Loved this contemporary romance. The story is sweet and hot. The audiobook was excellent.
