Welcome to Litsy!

Super late getting my #BookSpinBingo August wrap up posted since I finally unpacked my printer. Only read 2 books because moving took most of my energy and focus but both of these were great. The tagged book will surely make you feel great about your failed relationships too 😂 This is also proof that DNFs are not always forever. I came back to this book 4 years after shelving it in “library purgatory”.

Thank you so much @Avanders what an adorable fall fun package! 😍😍 I just love the scarf, it's soo soft! The book sleeve and pillow cover are so cute! I'm going to light the candle and curl up with the tagged book this evening. 🧡🍁🍂❤️ #FFFS #FallingForFallSwap @Chrissyreadit

I didn't know much about Queen Victoria so I learned something new. When I think of Queens and Kings I think of older people, so it was interesting to read about Victoria taking the crown when she was 18 years old. This book covers the first two years of her reign, including her meeting with Prince Albert, her future husband. I felt like I was reading a history book. The characters did not have enough personality for me to see this as a fun read.

Was this prequel to the American Royals series in any way necessary? No, it wasn‘t. But I love being in the world of the Washingtons, so I‘m not mad about it! 😂

This was okay. About the last son of the Habsburg dynasty, and what a complete ass he was. He unfortunately took his wife and mistress down with him, his mistress much more so. I do think the authors make a good point about people needing a purpose and if these old guards keep gripping tight to everything the new generation flounders. But maybe I am looking too deep given my country's current climate.
Good if you like a rich family drama

Arsinoe, fugitive queen of Fennbirn Island, sits stone faced before the desk, surrounded by crumpled balls of parchment. She has not slept but a few hours, and the light spilling in through the cut-stone window hurts her eyes; it shows the dark hollows beneath them and the gray hue of her face.
