Welcome to Litsy!

Jason Fitger is a Professor in the English Department - writing letters of recommendation - they are funny, critical of administration, and tell the reader a lot about him (egotistic, not liked by colleagues, brutally honest at inappropriate times). If you have worked in academia you would be able to relate to Professor Fitger‘s rants. Funny and poignant (not all laughs) , overall very good read.
Make a great day everyone 🙂

This book is laugh-out-loud hilarious. It lives on my nightstand as a palate cleanser and joy-bringer.

I finished 8 books in December. My two favorites were The Scholar and the Last Faerie Door and an ARC of Emily Wilde's Compendium of Lost Tales. Both books with faeries!🧚‍♂️

Emily and Wendell embark on their journey into Wendell's realm. Having previously defeated his step-mother, taking the throne should be a formality, yet it is not so easy. A dark curse is threatening the kingdom and Emily soon realises they are living in a "fairy tale" whose many versions don't seem to have a happy ending. Emily is determined to use all her scholarly powers to find ⬇️

This is a pick x1000.

If you enjoy SF and LitSF I would highly recommend this. It's very short, it's beautifully written, and is highly political. I want to force strangers in the street to read it. So please stack add, go read the first chapter, let yourself get sucked into the writing.

If you thought grumpy Cambridge scholar Emily Wilde‘s research into faerie-kind and their mysterious realms was enchanting, intense, or quite seriously ill-advised before…just wait until she becomes the queen of one! This series is so clever, delicious, and fantastically conceived—I‘ll walk through any faerie door on the heels of Emily, her dandy of a faerie prince, and their expanding world of colleagues, companions, beasts, friends, and foes!

I'll never tire of Emily Wilde and her Faerie adventures. But this time, Emily isn't just researching faeries-- she's becoming their queen. Alongside Wendell, Emily is ready to retake his Irish realm. Unfortunately, their story is following a dangerous precedent that is sure to get someone killed. Not if Emily has anything to say--or research-- about it though. Another wonderfully fun historical fantasy romp from Heather Fawcett.
