Welcome to Litsy!

#roll100 I always enjoy a book that references Greek tragedy so this was good, but not great. I was expecting some sort of twist or reveal which didn‘t come but good nonetheless!

I‘m not totally sure what I feel about this one. It made me want to keep reading, but there were elements missing for me; main character Alex didn‘t gel with me.

An intensely readable page turner, I very much enjoy this author! I found myself thinking a lot about the universality of our stories in the aftermath of trauma. Well drawn characters and the reader of the audio book had a great voice and a great balance of reading/performing. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I found this to be an interesting story — especially with the eerie echoes of my own short-lived teaching career held within — highlighting a type of relationship that rarely gets explored, and showing the impact, both positive and negative, we can have on a person without ever realizing it.

Found this book for only $1, and was not disappointed. 📖

Snuggled up with my pup and ready to read.

Intrigued to know where this one is going - billed as a crime novel but I'm not sure what the crime is yet....

Simply amazing. One of the best ten if fifteen novels I have read this decade, maybe even this century.
