Welcome to Litsy!

This is my preliminary #Scarathlon2023TBR for my #ScarathlonEarlyBirdPoints There‘s some great books here waiting to be read! Lots of witchiness, some hauntings, some classic gothic spooks & a few mystery/thrillers. I also have a huge stack in reserve, I‘ll compile them later so I can get another photo to post. This is where my #MountTBRShelvesOfDoom come in handy! #Scarathlon2023 #SpookyGhostClub 21pts

#SeriesLove2023 #rRead during #Rushathon

Was it longer than it needed to be? Yes. Is it Kline‘s best? No, but it is his earlier work published in 2015/2016. Still, I really enjoyed the story in this werewolf romance. Klune has the ability to write endearing characters who make me smile & laugh when his isn‘t making me cry. I liked Ox & Joe (yes, the age gap is a bit 🤔🫣 at first but think imprinting ala Twilight), the whole Bennet pack & ⬇️

Bk4 of August & #Rushathon #readathon is done. Another from my deep dive into my #MountTBRShelvesOfDoom this has been sitting there for about 6yrs I think. A soft Pick, the 1st in Rice‘s Werewolf duology, not the best of the genre I‘ve read but I did love the setting & atmosphere. The house, Nideck Point, sounds like my idea of a dream house. I‘d take being a wolf a few days a month to live there! The writing was a bit meh though. #Booked2023👇

Climbing out of another slump, I seem to be in a roller coaster ride of reading one week then not reading the next! Ended up watching Wolf Pack on Paramount+(Sarah Michelle Gellar rules🫶)& felt like reading some werewolf fiction. Totally remembered I had this languishing on my #MountTBRShelvesOfDoom for years & went in search. Two chapters in & I‘m not hating it. Anyone here read this before?🐺 #Rushathon

Sometimes just a simple shower can make you feel a bit better. Plus it makes me nicer to live with! About halfway through Bk4 of my #JubilantJuly #readathon Yes I went with another reread instead of my ridiculous #MountTBRShelvesOfDoom Can books stare at you reproachfully?👀🫣

1. Oh yeah. There‘s two large wood cases in the loungeroom, two large TBR bookcases in the spare room AND I have a library that was my sons room. And I still have double stacked shelves, a metre tall stack next to the bed and 4 stacks on the library floor. Oh, and a TBR cart! I‘m drowning in books. Which is fine.🫣
2. Alphabetically then chronologically. Except my #MountTBRShelvesOfDoom are also grouped by genre first.

Bit late but this is my final stats from the #JoysOfJune #readathon Almost got all my goals finished, the only one I didn‘t was to read 4 books. But I did get 3 plus 60% of a 4th so I did ok. All rereads again, I don‘t know why, but I‘m really in the mood for rereads. My #MountTBRShelvesOfDoom are giving me death glares again!😑Oh well, they‘ll all get read eventually. I hope🙏. Once again, huge thanks to our fearless leader, you rock!🦸🏻‍♂️

My #20in4 #readathon went brilliantly this weekend! Amazing how much reading you can do when you‘re awake for 2 days straight coz of pain. Plus it‘s distracting, so win-win. Finally finished the Wayward Children series(so far)& got to Cerulean Sea after over 2yrs on my #MountTBRShelvesOfDoom Thanks again to our wonderful leader @Andrew65

So, I kinda have a few books to choose from for this weekends #20in4 #readathon! And there‘s another stack behind these. Plus the #MountTBRShelvesOfDoom in the other room. My goals are:
📚Read at least 2 books
⏱️Read for the 20hrs
🤓Get my reading mojo back for good!

Who else is joining me?

1st from my #BirthdayHaul is the latest book from Sarah Addison Allen. I absolutely adored Garden Spells & First Frost and have Lost Lake & The Sugar Queen on my #MountTBRShelvesOfDoom as well. This one‘s about a building called The Dellawisp on Mallow Island, off the South Carolina coast. Inhabited by tiny turquoise birds & a few tenants, it‘s shrouded in magical secrecy, then Zoe comes to claim her mother‘s apartment after her death.
