Welcome to Litsy!

I wanted to like it. It started off strong, (FMC is taken by the Dragon, no one knows why the girls are taken from the village, but it turns out less nefarious than she guessed, subverts so tropes when the ‘handsome prince‘ arrives) but it got …confusing? Or maybe it just didn‘t hold my attention. But suddenly there were a lot of characters & battles built up to end in mere pages… +forced love story…

This wasn‘t my favorite but I‘m not sure why. I couldn‘t ever decide if I was supposed to like the FMC or if I just thought she was vapid and a bit immature. While I do like the fake dating trope, this one got crazy really quickly, and wasn‘t very believable to me.

I really enjoyed this #AtoZReadathon challenge, just 4 away from a full set! I'll tag my reads in the comments. It's been a great month with some fantastic reads. Thank you for hosting @Texreader

When Louis tried to stop a man from beating his dog, Louis‘s response to the man justifying himself was priceless: “He‘s not your dog. He‘s God‘s dog.“

John learns about his grandfather‘s service as a code talker during World War II in this picture book for older kids. It‘s a story based on the experiences of code talkers as they navigated the army and developed the code that could not be broken. A pronunciation guide in the back helps readers practice the Navajo language. #BBRC #PictureBook #LetterU
