Welcome to Litsy!

This is the leader of the #whimsicalreadsbookclub. Did she block me? I went to her profile to see if I can find out what we‘re reading this month and this is what I saw when I went to her profile. What did I do? All I wanted was to participate in the book club. If she wanted me to leave then she should‘ve told me what I did wrong and then removed me. Does it have to do with my review I wrote for When The Tides Held The Moon? This is so hurtful.

Here‘s how I did on my #readyourkindle list in June. I started Royal Assassin for #realmofelderlings buddy read but I only read the prologue. I finished a series for #serieslove2025. I read some of the books on the #naturalitsy list. I started the short story for #christiescapers but I didn‘t finish it before the end of the month. I read the short stories for #noplacelikeholmes and I read the #whimsicalreadsbookclub book.

The first book was a book I read for the #naturalitsy buddy read that‘s about insects. The second book is a #whimsicalreadsbookclub we read in June. It‘s a cozy fantasy book. The third book is a dark romance ARC I read for The Smuthood PR. The fourth book is the short stories I read this month for #noplacelikeholmes. These are all very different books. I like to read different books or I get bored.

Benny, trying to find a place for himself in NYC, instead finds himself helping a Coney Island sideshow capture a merman. Only, when he starts connecting w/ the merman, Benny must decide what his new family is worth.

I really enjoyed this! It‘s a very slow start, setting up all the fun side characters & the show, but it‘s worth it when the plot really kicks in. & NYC was such a fantastically detailed setting. I did predict the twist. 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

I just finished reading When The Tides Held The Moon by Venessa Vida Kelley and I earned this achievement. That was easy because this is the #whimsicalreadsbookclub book for June and it‘s on the list of LGBTQ+ qualifying books on Goodreads. I didn‘t even realize it was on there until I looked.

Here‘s my review for the #whimsicalreadsbookclub book. The song I‘m choosing to match this book is “This Is Me” from the movie The Greatest Showman.

Yay! I was approved for this ARC I signed up for from Daria Quinn and The Smuthood PR. This is the second book in a series. I looked on here and it‘s not on Litsy so I‘ll tag it under Super Smutty Sign Language. After I finish the #whimsicalreadsbookclub book then I‘ll start this book. I‘m looking forward to reading this. I forgot that this book was going to be released on June 26.

Just started the #WhimsicalReadsBookClub book today and I am so invested already!

I started this book last night. This is the #whimsicalreadsbookclub June book. I‘m an hour into the audiobook. I‘m not feeling pulled into the story at all yet so I‘m not sure if I‘m going to like it but maybe it‘ll get better. If it doesn‘t get better then I‘ll DNF it.

Here‘s my #bookspinbingo list for June. I probably won‘t have time to participate in all of the book clubs I want to participate in but I‘ll probably have time to participate in #litsyscifibookclub, #whimsicalreadsbookclub and the Wednesday Addams book club on Fable. I‘ve already started reading the ARC I need to read this month. It‘s good but I‘m not having fun reading it. I‘ve only read 51 pages. Maybe it‘ll get better. I don‘t know.
