Welcome to Litsy!

The second book in T. Kingfisher's Sworn Soldier series, this novella works as a standalone. A gothic horror story that's both creepy and cozy. It's been nominated for the #hugoawards Best Novella.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I took this as satire and it worked for me. Beguiling and dark; gruesome and funny. A weirdly fun, fast read!

This is my pick for #fictionaltraveler for May!

This book was SO FREAKING GOOD!! I loved the story, but it was honestly the writing that made this for me. Not only will I be looking to read more by this author, but I'm afraid it will leave me with a book hangover that causes a slump. There were also some historical facts at the end that just added to the vibe. Oh, and make sure to look for the last chapter that comes after the author notes at the end.

This book was incredible! I stayed up past my bedtime the last 3 nights and read during my lunch break and blew through this almost 500 page book! Very few books have me yelling out loud and this was one! There is a lot of gore but it isn‘t pointless gore and I should have used my smut bookmark for this one! The main character does have OCD which can be a trigger so heads up on that! I can‘t wait to start the second one on my lunch break!

"That's how the history of Starling House feels to me now, like a story told so many times the truth is obscured, caught only in slantwise glimpses. Maybe that's how every history is."

This book has me in a choke hold! I'm only halfway through, and I have realized that I might need to read everything this author has ever written!!

This duology was quite entertaining. I know it's very popular and I liked it a lot but it didn't like blow my mind. I may need a break from the fantasy books if they're all starting to seem mediocre.
