Welcome to Litsy!

This chunkster is a soft pick. Powerful generational story of a predominately Black family with Native American and white ancestors woven in. Storyline of the early family members is incredible, as is the modern day one. But dang, this beautiful, heartbreaking and hopeful novel needed an editor! Too many details, words, on the less than interesting love life of one of the young modern female characters. #chunksterchallenge2026. #bookspin

This book is a pick for me - although not a standout. A quicker and enjoyable read about women and how they assisted with the radar work during WWII. Loved learning about how radar played a roll in WWII despite it being a new technology. It was a good blend of learning about how radar technology worked/was used with the other storylines going on. It is pretty easy to see where the book is going but still well written and an enjoyable read.

These are my January challenges picks📚🤓Thanks so much for hosting♥️♥️

excited for this month‘s #bookspinbingo 🙌🏻

#bookspin: echo nova
#doublespin: from the valley we rise

Last but not least, December! The tagged book would have been among my favorites no matter what month it was read, but for this month it was no contest.

Inner Harbor was a page turner, and I appreciated the local setting, but the story was OTT.

The two anthologies were disappointing. I‘d started both previously (should have been a clue?) and wanted to clear them out by year-end. Blanket Cats was my #bookspin choice.

First book finished for #auldlangspine! This book was so good, I started and finished it today.

It was already on my radar and TBR, but this gave me the push to actually pick it up!

My first 5⭐️ read of 2026!

I‘m glad this was on @rachelsbrittain ‘s #auldlangspine list, as I‘ve wanted to read something by Alyssa Cole for a while.

It‘s a pretty spicy romance with an interracial couple during the civil war. Both characters are spies for the north stationed in the south, and their attraction is complicated.

A low pick for me, but I‘m glad I read it.
(Also glad I was working alone today while listening- steamy!)

This was my January #bookspin 😁📚.

Thanks to the Highbridge Company and @Libro.fm for the ALC of this audiobook.

To the right audience, I think this book would be fascinating. I am not in that category.
Do you like the history of science (yes!!!) seen through the lens of its contemporary philosophical view (apparently not me!)? If so, then do I have a book for you! #bookspin #bookspinbingo
