Welcome to Litsy!

I apologizes for my absence this week. Work has been nuts, would be nice if people could stop committing crime Got this lovely #cbbc package from @Kshakal and the gummies are gone in my quest for dopamine #coffeebeanbookclub @Mommamanzi

A really good cozy with magic and a sea serpent 💜

First in the series and a solid start… a cute cozy with a witchy twist. Fun characters and fun to read!

@Kshakal I mailed your #CBBC package today. I still have The Lost Bookshop, I'm not quite finished with it but I sent along Sprinkles and Sea Serpents 🐉

Fantastic, loved it. I‘ve been collecting as many Dorrie the Witch books as I can find. This one was elusive, so I resorted to eBay and had to get a little paperback edition. All the others I‘ve found are the hardcover school editions like I read in elementary school.

This is a sweet cozy fantasy about 3 seer sisters who run a tearoom where they read tea leaves for their customers. Positive the tearoom and home is their future, all 3 are surprised to find themselves called to different pursuits just when it seems they most need to be united to the job of helping elder witches find their life tasks. Leans hard on the “failure to communicate” trope but is ultimately a satisfying story about finding your own path.

One thing I know when reading a C.J. Cooke novel is that it‘s going to be unique and it‘s going to be mysterious. This is no exception, weaving together two timelines of motherly love and devotion, magic and witchcraft, and finding your place in a world that doesn‘t always make room for you. Definitely recommend!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟

This is really freaking cute. I definitely recommend. If you like cozy fantasy.

This was a reread, and sadly not as good as I remembered it (first read when I was about 15 so a lonnnng time ago!) Really not a fan of the pedophilia that was completely romanticised. Did get me a line in #bookspinbingo though for Jan!

And #bookspin list for Feb!

#monthlywrapup 18 books finished - 2 bingos, 2 #readyourkindle finished 🎉 super successful month! No #bookspin or #doublespin. Highly doubt I'll finish anymore. Final #BookspinBingo board for January. @TheAromaofBooks
