Welcome to Litsy!

When Shrike is crowned Oak King and fated to be killed by the Holly King to preserve the change of the season, he scrys for someone to help him and is lead to a mortal man. This was a fun but wandering read. There were a few things that felt like if cut, the book would be no less ritch. Due to this, the climactic battle feels very short. Overall, though, a fun fantasy story. I'd read more in this universe. #LGBTQIA #Fantasy #Birds

March 2025 Book 2 A re-read for me but I only read the first 2 books. Now I‘m planning to finish the series, obviously, next year 😂It was enjoyable to go back to this world and I could say I enjoyed more the story now than the first time. Looking forward to see the dynamic of this “romance?” triangle. We know things will drastically change in the next books. I have the first edition cover and this new hardcover edition🤦🏽‍♀️book collector⬇️3.8⭐️

Have just finished this book, 2nd one is out soon. Quite liked this read was different

I read this in 2013 and I liked it, I may have read more of the series? I can‘t remember, but I have plenty of catching up to do regardless. So since 2006 we as a society are more aware of cultural appropriation & Briggs is not native & the fae are sent to reservations which is… not ideal. Urban fantasy around that time would throw in any & every culture with little to no research, I don‘t know how the indigenous community feels about it here

#LittensLoveSJM #ToG QueenofShadows Ch.41-50: wow! I can‘t quite believe what happened to Arobynne-When he slipped the ring on Aelin‘s finger, my heart nearly stopped. Dorian under Valg control is bad enough. His chapters are hard to read -but to think of the Queen being a puppet - nope. Not having it. And neither is she apparently 🙌 I think she‘s going to need to keep Aedion in the loop though for future plans. He‘s going to get pissy otherwise

I‘m psyched to participate in the November #bookspin after a long hiatus. It seems like recent literary fiction and new thrillers by my favorite authors are what I‘m in the mood to read. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Let the reading begin!!

Newest #audiobook listening!

Two chapters in and Saeris is in a lot of trouble. No fae yet, but I feel we‘ll soon get to their realm.

Half a Soul by Olivia Atwater. A sweet Regency romantasy. Started a little slow but then found its pace and turned out to be a quick and lovely read.

Meet Feyre, the youngest daughters to a failed merchant. The families survival depends purely on Feyre and then she is taken away from her family by a faerie as punishment. During the first two hundred and fifty pages we watch as Feyre continuously goes back and forth to if she is escaping or not. Round and round we go.
I do not understand the hype around this book.
