Welcome to Litsy!

After an entire month of madness busyness, I am spending the week en reading three books for 2 book clubs both next week! #readingandreviewing #backtoreading

I can‘t believe I haven‘t posted for three months. But I have been reading. Maybe not as much as I hoped, but I just seem to lurch from one busy week to another. Anyway, my two week semester break helped. Some of these are already released, but I am also loving all the books about to be released mostly in September. #readingandreviewing #RSO2024

Very much enjoying this queer romance set in Liverpool. It‘s also a story of friendship and ADHD (dealt with separately). Out in 🇦🇮 in July. #preview #julyrso2024 #lgbtqia #readingandreviewing

I am not a big non-fiction reader, so this is taking ages. But also it‘s pretty tough going, watching these Australian nurses suffer as prisoners of war. But also inspirational and educational. #readingandreviewing #biography #worldwarII

I have read all of these recently. Loved them all. Two mysteries and one fantasy (not sure that is the best description of ‘Liar‘s Test‘). All Australian, all targeting teens. #readingandreviewing #schoolholidays #grchallenge

I have been reading. But I have not been posting. Here are most of them from Jan and Feb. All different, all mostly good. Some coming in April, and some in May. And of course, some like the tagged book are already released. #readingandreviewing #youngadult

I read about 100 young adult novels in 2023. Here are my 23 favs. #bestoflists #fav23in23 #readingandreviewing

We are going through a two day heat wave. Temps up to 37 degrees C (sorry, don't know what that is in f... about 98?) Not much else to do than sit in air conditioning, watching cricket and reading. Finished this one. Cute little diverse #ukya contemporary romance. #readingandreviewing #schoolholidays #summer and thus I reach my #grchallenge 120 books 📚 for 2023.

Already reading for Riverbend Books standing orders. This one is a #marchrso2024. #currentlyreading #fantasy #sirens #romance #quests #nautical Have managed to avoid many of the siren books, but I suspect this one is similar. Plus a #treefern #summerholidays #readingandreviewing #noschool

My school Easter holiday is almost over. Baaw! These are four books I read, although I am still working through the tagged book. Differing opinions on all of them. I read other trashy romance ones, as well as books for a panel I am moderating at my local writers festival in May. But also busy with marking, Minecraft and (can‘t think of another appropriate M word)… volunteer work. #readingandreviewing #previewbooks #holidaysareover
