Welcome to Litsy!

This series is so much fun! I love the mix of witches, vampire and knitting in the Oxford UK setting. This installment also featured the cast of a Shakespearean production and romantic chaos when love potions get administered to the wrong targets.

This sci-fi/horror story is creepy and atmospheric but the plot dragged along and there wasn't much character development. It's too bad, as the sci-fi elements were interesting and had lots of potential for a great story.

An alternate universe “Frankenstein“ story. A dedicated scientist tries to bring her sister back to life but another spirit inhabits the body, desperately afraid of being driven out or further experimented on. A poignant story about identity and found family.

Works for #URC prompt, book by an Asian author. Also for nonbinary/genderqueer prompts.

This book traces the history of the United States in its geographical landscapes & how these have influenced its culture. The Gothic genre found in British novels is different to American Gothic, & the author posits that America is haunted by its own past & history, even if these take very different regional forms. (continued)

This has been my absolute favorite book of this series so far! It was a very Agatha Christiesque whodunit mystery with our favorite characters Georgiana, Darcy, Belinda, and Queenie.

An enjoyable historical novel set in 1920's London. It started slow but I liked how the various plotlines eventually wove together, and I also found the morally ambiguous characters (which, frankly, were almost all of them) interesting.

This is a spin off from another series. I haven‘t read it and I didn‘t think I missed much. It‘s a mash up of ghosts, romance, save this failing business, and surprise grandchild.

All of the characters were awkward and adorable. I really hope this develops into a series as there were some interesting ideas and plots that weren‘t fully developed in the book.

Based on the 2001 film by acclaimed director Brad Anderson, this book is set in Danvers State Hospital, an abandoned mental institution. The local council are looking to renovate the place to use as offices & the company chosen for the job consists of boss Gordon, supervisor Phil, & workers Mike, Hank, & Jeff. (Continued)

Someone is trying to murder Lady Catherine and if you're a fan of Pride and Prejudice, you won't be surprised to learn *everyone* has a motive. 😂 Amusing, but dragged on a bit and the omniscient narrator was overdone. Also, the excruciatingly slow burn of the romance is getting to me!

#WordSearch: “the upcoming harvest“, “such dark work“, “I entirely forgot to pack the book.“ 🙀

2.5/5 ⭐️ This was just OK. It's a murder mystery in a fantasy setting. I just never felt invested in the story and don't feel compelled to continue with the sequel.
