And my first T. Kingfisher is in the books! This one was creepy and funny and there‘s a dog and now I just have to decide which one to read next for #authoramonth.

AshleyHoss820 I‘ve got this one on my radar to read for Kingfisher too! I‘m starting with this one: 7h

I‘ve been so happy seeing all the T Kingfisher books popping up on Litsy lately, and all the Littens that are newly enjoying her writing thanks to #authoramonth 🎉
I took the opportunity to finally get to the second book in the Sworn Soldier series and while I loved the Poe allusions in book 1 more, I liked continuing Alex‘s story in this book. I also love Kingfisher‘s asides, like in the quote above. Relatable, and funny 😆

Soubhiville The more I read by her, the more I like her. 🙂📚 10h

Even though you know how the plot is supposed to end, it still takes you by surprise! Princess Marra, now almost a nun, sets out to save her sister married to a brutal prince. She completes magical tasks and hooks up with an insane entourage—all of whom bring something special to the group, and yet in no way could possibly pull off their plan. And they meet up with some creepy characters along the way, too. Other than Marra‘s excessive ⬇️

Texreader apologizing and stammering, I found all the other characters endearing, especially Bone Dog and Finder. Agnes can be quite fun, too. I mean, how can you not? If I had a wish, it‘d be Marra growing more mature than she did by the end. This is a really good book even if it took awhile to get on its feet. #authoramonth @Soubhiville 1d

The mail just came! Thanks so much for the books, @Soubhiville - I enjoy reading for #AuthorAMonth with every new story.

As I‘m sure many of you will attest to, this week has been a difficult one and the package on my doorstep definitely brought a moment of joy amidst *all of this* going on out in the world right now.

Soubhiville That was fast! Yay! It has been a hard sad week. I‘m glad to bring you a bit of sunshine. (edited) 1d

For January‘s #AuthorAMonth, I chose the first book in this children‘s series by Ursula (aka T. Kingfisher) in honor of my childhood pet hamster Squeaky. ☺️It‘s a sweet retelling (with a hilariously fun “girl power” twist!) of the Sleeping Beauty tale. Loved Ursula‘s spunky heroine Harriet, her cool illustrations and witty sense of humor. Will definitely be reading more! 🙌🏻

Soubhiville It looks cute. 1d
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick I'm so glad I saw this! I didn't realize they were one in the same. I have the first 4 Dragonbreath books by Ursula Vernon and now have an excuse to at least read the first one. 1d

#HaikuADay #HaikuHive

This week has been a week & I‘m behind on haikus. I wrote this one last night inspired by Silent Book Club. I missed December‘s meeting due to work events so it was nice to be back, although the early bird small talk was an effort!😉

Early to book club
Awkward small talk with other
Early introverts

The tagged book is the book I brought (along with my Kindle for after dark) reading it for #AuldLangSpine #AuthorAMonth

DebinHawaii @TheBookHippie @dabbe @BiblioLitten @JenlovesJT47 Right?! We covered what we were reading, the weather, post holiday back-to-work blues, the weather some more, NYE fireworks (big topic in Hawaii) & by the time to start “the silence” I was exhausted! 😉😆🫢😳 2d
TheBookHippie @DebinHawaii I would need a nap. 2d
CatLass007 I don‘t like small talk but I enjoy a good conversation. I don‘t like meeting new people because that‘s often what we‘re stuck with, small talk. But every once in a while you meet someone and you just click. 2d
DebinHawaii @CatLass007 Same! I was disappointed last night that the person I have clicked with at SBC didn‘t make it last night. I would have not been exhausted chatting with her. 1d
CatLass007 I‘m sorry she didn‘t make it last night. Does your SBC meet once a month? That‘s a long time to have to wait to reconnect. 1d
DebinHawaii @CatLass007 This location which is close to me is monthly. They do other events at other locations & I may decide to do one of those this month if I can. 1d
CatLass007 Sounds good! 1d

My first T. Kingfisher was exactly what I wanted! A new fairytale with clever sisters, daughters claiming their own power, selfless girl friends, and one evil witch - I mean, sorceress, excuse me.

Love that #AuthorAMonth encouraged me to read a new to me author who‘s been on my TBR for too long!

Merethebookgal I need to read more of their stuff! 3d
Soubhiville I‘m so glad you enjoyed it! 3d
