Welcome to Litsy!

Some of my old favs with #Witch characters.

Jones creates a school full of loveable and hateable students and tells this story in an interesting manner. I liked it a lot better now rereading it with my husband, but didn't care for this when I first read it as a teen. It's an interesting entry in the Chresomanci series. #Witches #Magic

I enjoyed this but it has a very different feel than the first three I read. The story is set in an alternate world where magic is illegal unlike the other worlds where it is openly practiced. I found this installment was slow to start and only got really interesting once the magic started showing up.

Late night reading with my girl Sierra. This story has a different feel from the previous in the series so I‘m wondering what will happen next. #CatsOfLitsy

I‘ve gone and picked up two Instagram photo challenges for the month... cause I‘ve got all this spare time 😂

Please enjoy this green stack! Any favourites?

W is for Witch Week!

Cause what wouldn‘t be improved by a visit from Christopher Chant, amirite?!

You never quite know what is going to turn up when you buy books via eBay, but I was quite happy with this retired school book, first edition of #WitchWeek by Diana Wynne Jones

✨ Favourite Title for #RiotGrams ✨

Continuing with what *I think* is Book 3 of Diana Wynne Jones's Chrestomanci series.(It might be Book 4. It's not quite clear...) But this one is just right for the season!

Witch Week by the late, great Diana Wynne Jones.

I never met her. I bought this signed.
I am not Eva.
But I sure wish I knew what she said!

Gin & Tonic and children's fantasy about witches!

Yes, now I am being obnoxious and just showing off more of my various copies/covers for Witch Week. But can you blame me? Only awesome books can inspire so many amazing covers!

A school for witch orphans. Where magic is strictly forbidden. And yet magic keeps popping up. Time for a visit from the always well dressed and enigmatic Chrestomanci!

Obviously, someone in this class is a witch because people on the covers fly on brooms! Of course it's not that cut & dry in this fun Chrestomanci novel.
