Welcome to Litsy!

Families have secrets. Some are small. Some are unbelievable. The Sandersons don‘t talk about any of them. In fact, they rarely talk to each other, at all. That‘s when Nora drops the biggest secret of all on her younger sister, Quinn, and we learn all kinds of things that could put everyone in danger. With a little girl at the center of things, will there be a happy ending? It‘s worth a read to find out. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I finally finished it! My brain has been all over the place and resisting finishing physical books. The big reveal at the end was an easy guess from the beginning but the most important and beautiful parts of the book dealt with the relationships between the women. What it means and what it takes to be a mother. I‘m so glad I was finally able to focus and finish this one. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

After getting though a week-long stint of spring cooties AND successfully passing our two day huge onsite audit at work today, I‘m finally getting some reading time in. I don‘t know what‘s up with me but I‘m struggling to get through this book. I‘ve had it as an ebook loan through Overdrive and checked out the physical copy multiple times. I‘m enjoying the book but it‘s like I have some kind of mental block.🤔Anyone else experience this?

It‘s a wild and crazy Friday night over here! 🤣📚💙

#BookMail today...from my rather aggressive Book buying spree the end of May. The Song Of Achilles is a #blameitonlitsy purchase - not my usual type of reading, but so much love for it.

I thought this was a decent book but it seemed a little scattered and I‘m not sure the end really made sense. In fact there are a couple characters that still confused me as to their relevance. Overall, an okay read. Kept me turning pages for sure with a nice little surprise twist at the end.

Relaxing in bed this am with a book and a GREAT movie. The reviews on this book are very mixed and I get why. I‘m a little over half way, I like it but it seems a little all over the place. And I don‘t like the mother. She‘s so whiney! I‘m hoping to finish today if I can ignore most of what I should get done.

Starting this tonight after quite a busy day. Got our new washer dryer delivered and have done like 6 loads of laundry. I‘m loving this new set! We also got new carpet in our master bedroom installed this morning and within 15 minutes my dog peed on it. She‘s now pretty much permanently in a diaper.

This was a very enjoyable read.

I got a little reading in while we stopped for gas.

This one has me at page 1.

Perfect #beachread in this #lazysunday

Hubby has the flu, so the Dorkie and I have moved to the other side of the room.

The dogger demands attention 🐾

The story follows the events that transpired between three women, a mother and her two daughters, after Nora mysteriously leaves a child in the care of her sister Quinn. The character development was EXCELLENT! Some of the revelations came about a bit too late for me but overall, the book was very entertaining and the characters were superb! Thank you Netgalley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review. #💜themrs

Book bingo has begun. Hopefully this gets me back into reading! #5Book5Bingo

The story started off strong and was intriguing but the characters weren‘t well developed and that made the story feel shallow.

This book started really slow it. It wasn‘t a horrible read, just not one I would normally pick. My problem with reading the mystery genre is that most of the time I know what the mystery is so I spoil the ending for myself. This was the first book I read this year and would recommend it only if you like mysteries.

This is the #mypagehabit #mystery box from November. I'm really late posting. But I haven't seen a ton of other posts either. Did we all get bored with it or just busy?

Wow this book was fantastic! I was at the edge of my seat with this one and was turning pages all through the night! I really enjoyed this author‘s writing and multi-layered characters. This was a book that can show you how quick family secrets and deceit can spiral down into chaos! I give this book 5 out of 5 stars and would definitely recommend checking this book out. #bookreview #bookblog #booknerdigans #bookbloggers #bookworm #book #earc

#mypagehabit #unboxing! Can't wait to read these books - Little Broken Things by Nicole Baart and The Spark by David Drake. I love the author's notes inside of #pagehabit books! ps Library themed book tote is nice and sturdy!

Family drama with secrets and the lengths that a mother will go through to protect her child. I‘m somewhere between a pick and a so-so. The twist wasn‘t hard to figure out midway through.

Jennifer‘s review at http://bookishdevices.com/2017/11/20/little-broken-things-baart/

There is so much heart in this story! It‘s a great look at the resilience of humans and how people put their broken pieces back together to make a new life, often with help from unlikely places. The mystery aspect wasn‘t hard to figure out but the characters were wonderful. 🌟🌟🌟🌟

I have about an hour between when everyone else leaves the house and I have to get ready for work. I should be using that time to exercise, however this week it‘s just not happening! It‘s rather be reading #sorrynotsorry

Past secrets and strained relationships are at the heart of Baart's newest novel. Nora, estranged from her sister, Quinn, sends a cryptic text before showing up on her doorstep with a little girl. Nora abruptly leaves the girl in Quinn's care instruction to keep her safe and no questions.

By telling the story through multiple viewpoints Baart slowly reveals the circumstances that led Nora to leaving the little girl in her sister's care.

I am so excited to not only read this book but to be a part of the author's street team! I just love sharing delicious sounding books like this with everyone I know. Thank you to the author and Atria Books for the copy! #bookmailisthebest !
