Welcome to Litsy!

My March through the Betsy-Tacy books continues. Enjoying the high school years!

This series is a sheer delight! These installments cover Betsy‘s freshman and sophomore years at Deep Valley High School, and all of the angst and excitement involved in coming of age. (Surprisingly, I don‘t find Betsy‘s angst annoying, unlike that of more modern protagonists. 😆) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

That time I dressed up for #BetsysPartyinPlace and had afternoon champagne tea. No time for party today but plan #avisittodeepvalley in celebration of Maud Hart Lovelace's Birthday today. 🥳

My favorite quote about a #picnic! I feel just the same way. #WindsOfMarch #MaudHartLovelace #BetsyTacy

I re-read many, many books every year, but without a doubt #IveReread these #3Books more than most others. I guess when I really need a pick-me-up, I'm turning to children's historical fiction! #FarmerBoy #LIW #betsytacy #maudhartlovelace #julieandrews

I‘m enjoying Betsy‘s senior year SO MUCH, @rubyslippersreads . ❤️❤️

In need of some major comfort reading, so I‘m pulling out the big guns. And by big guns I mean the coziest book series of all time.

Love the illustrations in these books. I remember reading about Betsy and Tacy as a kid, so I was pleased to come across their continued adventures into adulthood. #betsyandtacy #book #bookaddict

As usually this book gives me all the feels. I love it so much 💕💕 And I love my sweet kitty cuddles too 😻

Oh my goodness finally, officially on vacation. Photo sessions uploading and all I have to do is send them 🎉🎊 So time to settle in with a book! I hope to finish this one before I fall asleep.

I love this book ❤️ When I first read the Betsy books I started at the end with Betsy's Wedding. I wasn't able to read this book or Betsy and the Great World for a few years because my library didn't have it. So I was always missing part of the story. I still to this day remember going to a far away library with my dad to do genealogy research and finding this book and reading it in one sitting!

"The older I get the more mixed up life seems. When you're little, it's all so plain. It's all laid out like a game ready to play. You think you know exactly how it's going to go. But things happen...." #betsytacy #betsytacytib #betsyandjoe #maudhartlovelace

I don't own many romances, but do love a romantic story. ❤️❤️❤️ #augustphotochallenge #romancenovels

The perfect wine for re-reading Maud Hart Lovelace books.

Every now and again I need to revisit the books I loved as a girl, the books that kept me company when I lived among non-readers, the books that convinced me that writing was an ambition other "ordinary" people had. Even more than Jo March, Betsy Ray was my secret soul sister.
