Welcome to Litsy!

My incredibly ambitious TBR pile for the upcoming period of time. At least I have some good ones! #tbrmountain #upnext #toomanybooks #notenoughtime #sendhelp 🤩💙🥹📚

I'm glad I stuck with the trilogy There was a little too much graphic violence and a bit of a "horror" feel to it all, but a fun read nonetheless. I much prefer Crouch's Dark Matter and Recursion though.

I've gotten back into the #1001books list a little more consistently, I've read I think 4 in the last few months. I'm using Serial Reader to tackle some - currently it's Erewhon, and honestly I'd be finding it a slog if it weren't for the bite sized installments.

Anyone else reading the #1001books list have recommendations for real gems you've found on the list? The last several I've read have all been fine, but I'm hoping for more than fine.

I‘m not a fan of #Zombie films or novels, but this was an interesting take on the genre, where a fungal infection puts people into a zombie-like state, with the exception of some children, who are sort of “high functioning” zombies.

They did such a good job on this movie. Dare I say, maybe I liked it better than the novella? The friendships were done beautifully and the ending was better. It was very moving overall.

Book cover scavenger hunt: landscape

Selected because the titular landscape sounds delicious.

“New York City in life was much like New York City in death. It was still hard to get a cab, for example.”

Who else but Whitehead could write a tongue-in-cheek zombie pandemic novel set in NYC!?!

Happy October #AuthorAMonth readers! My post is late this month as I had a visit from my sister and my Mom just moved in with me. I hope you‘ve already picked up your October author, Octavia Butler. Please take care of yourself while reading, as she goes dark and her fiction feels timely as she addresses inequality and other fights we are currently in politically.

What are you hoping to read?

That was a struggle to get through. I didn't like Snow. Lol it felt like it drug on.

Started the tagged book last night while having a good hot dog and a fruity beer.
