Welcome to Litsy!

This is quite good. It's journal entries. Does that make it epistolary? Or is that just for letters? 💖📚

“I wondered... whether dreams were like a vandal rampaging through a library of memories, tearing out random pages and turning them into paper boats...”

When I bought this beautiful metal bookmark (crafted in my own little city & based on vintage designs from the 20‘s - 50‘s), the shop owner asked if I wanted to purchase a tassel for an additional cost. I thought they were all a little tacky. What do you think? Should I leave it plain or give it some flair? If the latter, what kind? 🤔🥀🌹

“Luckily, the notion of a chauffeur named Parker helped divert me from any foolish speculation about where Simon was going, or how long he might be away.”

I mean, I‘d still prefer budding trees & birdsong... but I ain‘t mad. Not bad for a Tuesday. #snowday #inlikealion

It took me a few pages to get back into this story, but the characters are so well drawn and three dimensional, that it was a pleasure. This series takes real moments in history and gives them a truly unique perspective. #litsyatoz #c

Snap! I'm sure I've seen another book cover using this same photo too but it's slipped my mind. I already knew about the Tessaro and the Thynne but discovered this one after Fitzosbornes in Exile was recommended to me and I went off to find it on Amazon!

Still, with 3 covers at least this girl, her dress and her enigmatic look are already super popular!

Not as good as book one but still really enjoyable. A story of a family in decline trying to brace up for the war.
