Welcome to Litsy!

Joining! After work today (Friday), I have a long weekend off from work; so that looks promising. No work tomorrow and next Monday 🥳
After a particularly unpleasant week at work I hope to make some time for pleasant distraction (i.e. reading😁)

#JubilantJuly Check-In: Not as much as I hoped timewise, but got two #EarlyReviewer ARCs finished and my outstanding #reviews done, so: success!!!😉
