Welcome to Litsy!

I‘m bailing, not because the topic is uninteresting but it‘s a very dry read.

This was a very disappointing DNF, because 1. It‘s really short yet I still gave up. 2. I have enjoyed this series overall. The first two books had a strong lead character and lots of gothic creepy vibes. This book has a lot of unnecessary, tedious conversations and very little action. I still love T. Kingfisher, but this was a miss for me. #hailthebail

I do not care that I will probably end up eating this pumpkin cheesecake by myself.
And I do not care that I bailed on another book.

As popular as this author is I can't get into her.

This is a bail because of content, not writing quality. It contains Broms beautiful writing and art. It is also a very interesting retelling of Peter Pan. Just the violence against children is very extreme and just not something I enjoy reading. #hailthebail #dnf

I really wanted to like this, the premise was very interesting, but I just couldn't get into it. After almost a month, I've only finished 100 pages, so it's time to quit. I'll hold on to it and maybe take another run at it in 2026. #hailthebail

I can't continue with this one the writing is driving me nuts. Who even calls a travel mug a go cup.

Well, I previously mentioned I was struggling with the author's overblown language, which was a distraction from the genuinely interesting stories, and I thought I'd look at reviews to see what others had made of the book to see if it's worth me continuing. The reviews for *this* book are ok, but I saw reviews for another commenting on the author's transphobic, terfy views, and that was the clincher for me to bail.
