When holiday visitors bring hand-made surprises…#catsoflitsy
It‘s here! It‘s finally here!! Sick day??!!! 🤔
I think someone needs to fix the cover art in the listing. Also, having just finished this, I‘m gonna need a hug. Also, don‘t plan to see anything but YA and Romance content from me in the near future. Yikes my heart has been through the wringer. Really good audiobook as well.
#firstlinefridays I‘m running a bit late but this is a great first line of Unseen, the second in this Widdershins spin-off series. First book is tagged.
My supervisors of current audiobook listen, Under The Whispering Door. #freddiethetacocat #gingercatsunite These are my oldest and youngest fur babies. Freddie the pumpkin 🎃 is about 7 months and Franklin the tuxedo is almost 19 years.
My very first #bookspinbingo !!! Thank you so much for the breakdown @BkClubCare @TheAromaofBooks I‘m so excited to play this month!!
Inhaled this one and so thankful I don‘t have to wait for the sequel!! Great audio narration.
Recommended by famous authors, including Eloísa James, AND the Big Gay Fiction Podcast, AND with a title like that?! How could I NOT read it?! ? BRING. IT.
Cute ya m/m romcom. Get ready for random statistics and lists. Lots of lists.
The first line of Maurice Blanchot‘s The Writing of the Disaster reads, ‘The disaster ruins everything, all the while leaving everything intact.‘ Teju Cole writes about art in troubled times and he quotes this phrase. And, yes, that‘s it exactly. Incredibly astute commentary puts into text what I‘ve been feeling about the pandemic. https://www.artbasel.com/news/a-defense-of-art-in-troubled-times
Current read is Heartscape by Garrett Leigh Weekend visit to a local art studio tour Thankful I get to wfh today!! @Eggs #wondrouswednesday

My reading buddy, #freddiethetacocat is a master of camouflage. #tacotuesday #littenkitten #catsoflitsy
I have to admit the first book was boring (the novel is divided into four sections called “books”) but I read a comment that said it really picked up after Baz comes back. And that is completely 💯 true. I‘m also totally in love with the audiobook narrator and must now listen to everything he‘s ever made.
#firstlinefriday Thanks for the rec Big Gay Fiction Podcast!
This is my new motto.
Y‘all. I am not okay. The beauty of these words. Oh, my heart.
It‘s every bit as good as I hoped. And Lin Manuel Miranda is BACK as the audio performer! I‘m trying not to inhale it..but it‘s a real struggle. Can we also talk about this amazing accidental picture?! I was going for the cover when it opened to the first page and my screenshot caught the transition. Couldn‘t have done on purpose but wow. I@love it@so@much.
#freddiethetacocat is my reading companion today! He‘ll be ready for more rounds of fetch in about 3 seconds 🤪😩✋
@Eggs 1. No. I‘ve been tempted but I‘m an eclectic reader and picky. 2. I use all the things! (For book recs, of course😜). Actually, I use some for work like Twitter and Pinterest, and some for chonky kitties like FB. Insta and TikTok are my book media. 3. To finally have in my hands Aristotle and Dante book 2. I‘m melting!
Learn about titles you wouldn‘t hear about otherwise, and listen to in-depth convos with authors like TJ Klune!! Professional and totally entertaining!! Found everywhere podcasts can be found!!
That time my friend connected with an octopus 🐙. Red color indicates happiness!! Happy World Octopus Day.
Happy World Octopus 🐙 Day! Thank goodness for Sy Montgomery and her incredible talent for illustrating many of the ways octopuses are incredible. This book remains one of the reads most often mentioned in my conversations.
pickLike this reviewer, I‘ve been here all 23 years…and counting. This person gets it. What they said: http://beauty-in-ruins.blogspot.com/2021/07/fantasy-book-review-winterlight-by.h...
This is a great list of Africa-inspired YA fantasy. Check it out, then add to your TBR! I want them all!!! https://www.tor.com/2021/10/04/five-african-inspired-ya-fantasy-novels/
#firstlinefridays @ShyBookOwl Also, fun fact: the author herself is an actual Druid. Of the Order of Druids.
Two days late…that‘s how this whole week has gone. 1. I love all the colors!!! Especially vivid ones. Bright pink. Bright orange. Any hue of blue or purple. And my most fav color at the moment is a light blue turquoise. 2. Color doesn‘t influence my TBR but cover design def does. I will read a book with a bad cover (cough, cough, Playing the Palace)… but I will judge it for that
As I sat home at that same time, I wondered what effect the pandemic would have on our books, movies, and other forms of creative expression. As we grapple with a world that is opening up but is still deeply at risk, I‘m still wondering. I look forward to the time this is all a difficult memory.
There was something deeply pathetic about lingering in town for days after graduation, but Peter Cabot had long since made his peace with being deeply pathetic.#firstlinefridays @ShyBookOwl
Not sure if it‘s always this price, but if you haven‘t got it yet…now is the time!!! #lbgtqia+ because my TBR needs one more!!
This actually surpassed the hype…it was even better than I expected! It‘s hilarious, sex-positive, with diverse characters, and spicy!! Love the witty banter, the fine nuances of the story, and the bisexual mc. She‘s thick, smart, rich, nerdy and did I mention smart? #Dr.Rugbae for the win!
And Felix makes…101.
I finally grabbed this one…and inhaled it. I guess I was afraid it wouldn‘t be as good as people said. But it is 💯%. Great themes of identity, worth, friendship and love. Well done, Kacen Callender.
Omg omg omg. This is coming October 12. I can‘t breathe. I mean wait. Or breathe. Or wait. Ack!!! Get here NOW! 🥰🥰🥰
1.Delightful YA #lgbtqia romance. 2. Anything by Laini Taylor!! 3. I‘m so thankful for my #freddiethetacocat 😻🌮 @Eggs
Playing fetch with #freddiethetacocat while listening to the sequel to The Extraordinaries. #catsoflitsy #littenkitten @BookishMarginalia
@Eggs 1. When I grew up in the 80‘s there was famine in Africa. And WeAreTheWorld. I also remember the space shuttle blowing up. I watched it on live tv—killing all aboard including teacher Christa MacAuliffe. And fear of nuclear war. Geez. 😭 2. Ebooks, wherever I can get them! 3. I loved The 🌈 Goblins! The Secret Garden. And A Swiftly Tilting Planet. Nancy Drew!
When discussing multiple universes: “There even is a universe where the doctor dropped me on the floor after pulling me out of my mother‘s womb, and sometimes I wonder if it‘s this one and no one ever told me about it.” Same, Lars. Same. Heartmates by Marcus Herzig (not listed in the database. #lgbtqia
It‘s kitten season in much of the US and someone threw this baby out onto the street from a moving car. Across 4 lanes of traffic. He survived, healed and now is the cutest, sweetest cuddliest kitten ever. I named him Freddie the Taco. #catsoflitsy #littenkitten
What a waste. These are hours I can‘t get back. I wish I‘d bailed. So disappointing—misogynistic baloney. Gah. I feel like I need to rinse out my brain.
