Welcome to Litsy!

This was another #auldlangspine2024 from @BennettBookworm and was a lovely gentle read. I really liked how our main protagonist Meg had a full life outside of the love interest - rich yet complex female friendships and a hard earned creative career. As someone bit obsessed with signs and fonts I loved the game Meg and Reid played wandering the city looking for interesting and lost typeface it was like a private world in the city

My God, this book is magnificent! I had literal chills by the end of it. A sprawling work that encompasses multiple genres and centuries and characters, with entanglements and intersections that move forward and backwards and demonstrate how we are all connected to the environment and to history —and it to us. This would have landed on my #AuldLangSpine2024 list if I‘d finished it in time, @JoeMo

Before embarking on #AuldLangSpine2025 with my new reading partner @JoeMo , I decided to read one last book off the list from my #AuldLangSpine2024 partner @MallenNC . 🙂 I enjoyed it ! As much as I can now enjoy books about global pandemics caused by viruses that originated in China, that is. 😖 I even wanted it to continue. I don‘t know what that says about me. 😳

This was such a brilliant fantasy. The world building was phenomenal & the storytelling was thoughtfully paced. It was so interesting following Kai's quest to find answers in the present, balanced by the story of the past which revealed more & more of his and the world's origins.
This book was on my radar but I was hesitant to dive into such a sprawling fantasy. I'm so glad Sarah put it on her #ALSpine list, which encouraged me to pick it up!
