Welcome to Litsy!

It‘s time for my fall wrap-up. I was a #rebelreader and chose books out of their season and order. So by the beginning of October, I only had two left to finish. I read the #comicorgraphicnovel prompt. Then I realized that a book I read in February worked for #soldiersstory. So, that‘s my story and I‘m sticking to it!

Thanks to my lovely co-hosts and all you participants for a great #booked2019 challenge year! 😘😘

I managed to finish #booked2019 this year! Yay! Here are the books I completed during the final quarter:

#FemaleDetective: Murdered, My Sweet
#RemindsYouOfYourHappyPlace: The Overstory
#IndigenousAuthor: Future Home of the Living God
#MuslimAuthorOrMC: Amina‘s Voice
#ComicOrGraphicNovel: We3
#PublicDomain: The Turn of the Screw
#PoliticalIntrigue: The Testaments

Ferris creates the art journal and diary of Karen Reyes, a 1960s Chicago pre-teen, balancing the difficulties of her own adolescence with a family that‘s only marginally stable. And what she wants most in the world is to become a werewolf.

If you like a quirky kid, stories of growing up too fast, and fantastic art, give this graphic novel a whirl.

The more comics/graphic novels I read, the more I think they just aren‘t for me. 😔 As I mentioned in my review of “Hey, Kiddo” my typical reaction after finishing one is usually something along the lines of, “Mmkay... Well, I read it...” 🤷🏽‍♀️ which is basically what happened with this. I‘m honestly not sure what to say about it, I just feel pretty indifferent to it. *Sigh* Maybe someday I‘ll find one that‘ll click with me...

I bought this AGES ago, thought maybe I‘d read it for the Halloween season this year. Alas, I‘m just now starting...but it‘s intriguing so far. Can‘t wait to see what my granddaughter thinks of it this afternoon (she‘s nine). #comicorgraphicnovel #booked2020 #lasthosttofinish

I'm not a huge fan of graphic novels, and while this one's artwork didn't quite hit the mark for me, I loved its message to know your own self worth and to surround yourself with people who know it too.

On the street of Via Saterna in Milan, there exists a mansion guarded by a wall, rumored to be a #borderline between life and death. Once Orfi sees his girlfriend disappear behind the wall, he must follow her and find the truth for himself. This is a bizarre read for sure, with trippy illustrations to match... I read this for #booked2019 #comicorgraphicnovel #movember

🙌🙌🙌🙌

Now I just need to find the last volume in my library!

I can remember if I have done this prompt already, but if I haven‘t I‘m using this as my #ComicorGraphicNovel for #Booked2019

“I Was a Teenage Apocalypse”
Sadie Ritter thought having a baby at sixteen was hard enough, but things can get worse. She finds out that her baby, Clark, may be the Antichrist or King of Hell, which opens up a whole new dimension of worse. I really liked this one. It ends abruptly so I‘m definitely going to have get the next volume soon. #Booked2019 #comicorgraphicnovel #GraphicNovel2019 #screamathon #screamathonphotochallenge #graveyard

My #booked2019 for #summer is done! All were picks for me but I think the tagged book was my favorite.
