Welcome to Litsy!

The stakes in this volume feel much higher than other volumes as Natsume draws the attention of a terrifying clan of exorsists. Very interesting developments and setting the stage for later conflict. I adored the bonus chapter where Natsume tries to teach the yokai human games. #Manga

We get to see more growth from Natori, who as usual pushes growth in Natsume as well. The episodic nature of each chapter is starting to drop off a bit more in this volume for something more cohesive, which I'm delighted to see. It was also fun having the bonus chapter about Reiko. #Manga

Of course it‘s a pick. I don‘t think I‘ve ever read a Stephen King book I didn‘t like…or at least that I couldn‘t find aspects of to like. Ostensibly a whodunit (to a degree), this book is also an examination of the human condition, the lies we tell ourselves & others, the emotional toll of working on death row, racism, the abuse of power, & wonder & hope & the possibility in the seemingly impossible. King just knows how to tell a good story.

December #bookspin ~ such a fun, low pressure challenge. Thank you, @TheAromaofBooks for hosting. 💜📚

December is all about trying to finish reading challenges, so instead of books I've listed the prompts I need to fulfill to complete them. And two mood reads because I failed miserably in November 🤣

Any recommendations for good books for these? The genre chosen was romance.

Book 2 of the Mercy Thompson series was so good! Mercy ends up in a race against time to track down a preternatural serial killer and save her friends. The pacing was perfect, lots of action. Also really liked the way that the werewolves dominance woo woo was explained. Samuel needs to gtfo though, I hope Mercy kicks him to the curb sooner than later.

So I just starting watching the show. Finished the 2nd episode of the 1st season. Im liking it so far. I have never read any of Mr. Joe Hill's books. Is the show different from the book? Are we liking the show? I need the dets, Littens....

The internet's completely dead and has been for five hours now. Is that an excuse to drop my other reading and start vol 4? Probably not... Unless?
