Happy Easter to littens who are celebrating. A joyous Sunday to those who are not observing the holiday.
Happy Easter, litsy family! 🐇🐣💕
My goals are to:
1️⃣ Read 6 books fo finish up #bfc28 😳
2️⃣ Track my reading for the week by page count instead of hourly. I‘m always curious as to how much reading I actually do in a week, but I‘m horrible at tracking time, so I‘m going to try pages for my exploration.
3️⃣ Catch up in my reading journal. IM SO BEHIND.

Happy early Easter to all who celebrate, and peace and good wishes to each and every one of my fellow Littens, regardless of which holidays you observe! Even if my fiance and I can't be with our extended family tomorrow, quarentine won't stop a festive meal (even if it's just for 2 this year)! Dinner will consist of my late grandmother's govadellis (that's South Philly for ricotta gnocchi 😉). May you all find comfort and joy during this time!
Happy Easter, Everyone! 🐰 I thought I‘d share this adorable statue I found on eBay.
Feeling so blessed to be a part of this kind-hearted, generous and FUN community. Enjoy your day! ❤️

“It‘s Easter morning! Look — bunny tracks. And chocolates! And there‘s a jelly bean.”
This is a great book to read to children around Easter time. Since this book has both simple and more complex poems included in it, this gives the children the opportunity to relate the two with one another.
pickGenre: Poetry
I really enjoyed reading this book, especially since Easter is right around the corner. The book has simple poems in big text in the middle of the page, and more complex poems surrounding the text that relate to what is being said in the bigger text. I thought this was a really clever and interesting way to format the book, and gives different interpretations of what is being said.
Kate Christensen is appearing at next year‘s Unbound Book Festival and I‘m reading this ahead of that to work out how she will fit in the program. About half way through. Tension has been slowly, brilliantly ratcheting up... a master at work.
pickWarning: Do not, I repeat, do not read this book on a cruise. However if you‘re not planning to be on a cruise, this is a great read. The story takes place on final voyage of a 1950s ocean liner - no internet, no kids, a return to luxury cruising. It‘s told fr the perspectives of the sous chef, a member of a string quartet, & a farmer whose friend is writing about hidden workers (ie the crew). An entertaining thoughtful read. Just not on a ship.
so-soShe really captures what it feels like to be on a cruise, the gorgeous luxury of it, but also touches on the uncomfortable disparity between the experience of the traveller and that of the employee. This complex political issue is forgotten as they all face the challenges of life trapped adrift. The author is more focused on the characters finding fulfillment through romantic love. I do have to say the ending gave me chills.
Has anyone read Day Four? There are similarities to that one. Although I guess one stalled cruise ship has the same horrors as the next.
pickI don‘t quite know what to say about this book; please pardon the brain vomit. I found it to be funny, terrifying, and poignant. It was a harrowing read. A cautionary tale. A beautiful love story. It reminded me of Bel Canto. The ending was a good one, but I‘m not happy with it. I truly love some of the characters. Heroism figured in here in both large and small ways, as did hubris & cowardice & kindness. I will be thinking about this a while.
pickI will read anything that Kate Christensen writes. This one grabbed me and wouldn‘t let me stop until I‘d finished the book. (Thank goodness for the light on my paperwhite. My youngest has a migraine and light hurts her. So I‘ve turned down the light to where I can read and it doesn‘t bother her.)
pickI read this while on vacation and it was a great disaster vacation novel. Very well written with a dash of intrigue to make you think. If you enjoyed novels like Fierce Kingdom or Do Not Become Alarmed , you‘ll like this one.
pickI read this novel about the last sailing of vintage ocean liner Queen Isabella while at sea, and had some interesting dreams! I did enjoy the story, particularly the crew members that are featured as events escalate. eARC from @randomhouse through Edelweiss, out July 10.
