Welcome to Litsy!

🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗 Great little romance with wonderful commentary on heroism and expectations. My brother gave me this for Christmas as well as this adorable Elphaba funko pop and book sticker!

Hitting my sweet spot of graphic memoir, this one is deposits the reader directly into the shoes of a family living in and escaping from the conflict in Vietnam. The author‘s mother gave birth in a refugee camp, while they risked everything to give their children a better life. But making it to America wasn‘t the answer to all their problems. A note in the front says the author learned to draw to tell her family‘s story. Amazing!

I went to the post office for mail before they closed for the holidays and found a Christmas card. Thanks, Stacy, 😊 you know me well. Love Snoopy. @Sleepswithbooks

I saw this at the library and couldn‘t resist taking it home with me. The art is so cute, and the titles of all three are so quirky. I think this book shows that we grieve in different ways and that‘s okay. Also, ghosts really just want to be friends. What a clever idea for sheet ghosts to hang out at the laundromat! 👻🧺

Pretty interesting comic plus awesome graphics!

#DashingThruDecember Day 21: I made personalized hand #craft-ed notes marked with cutesie stickers on the 40 books I bought to be given away to family and friends this Christmas - I feel like a book deity dispensing book blessings. ✨🌟🌙 Note on the left is for the tagged book, “The Arrival.” It was our baby gay‘s 24th birthday on the 21st so I am posting late. Here‘s my review of tagged book: https://wp.me/pDlzr-1ne

The publication of (the first title in this trilogy edition) A Contract of God in 1978 "marked the birth of the graphic novel". This is a collection of Eisner's stories set on Dropsie Avenue, the Bronx, NY. I cannot say I enjoyed this, it is not "enjoyable" - very dark, very messy of the "human condition", but I am glad to have experienced it. I consider it an historical document. #Dec2025 Book113

This is such a cute series. I‘m going to enjoying what happens next for Sakura and her friends. I‘m going to enjoy reading this series. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I‘m “allergic” to chunksters, so I tend to avoid them. But there are SO many great books that are chunksters! So, #AllergicToChunksters is back for another year! If you would like to tackle a few chunksters yourself this year, do join me!

My definition of a chunkster is any book over 500 pages long, but feel free to use whatever definition makes sense to you. If it scares you, it counts!
