Welcome to Litsy!

The plan is to start this today after doing some straightening up. Our living/dining area looks like a dorm room 😔. The last two weeks have been spent dealing with a MIL crisis which completely sapped our energy, so cleaning feels good. This book is a mystery set in Barcelona during the Franco regime, a time period of interest to me. #booktherapy

"There she lay. Mariona. Pale, blonde, voluptuous, and... dead."
First sentence of The whispering city, a mystery set in Barcelona in the 1950's.

This book is filled with the 'dark' atmosphere of living in Franco's Spain. It is the background for this story.
Ana is a journalist who finds out there is something wrong with the official version of the murder investigation.
Loved the use of language and literature to solve this crime. ?

We were playing outside, but our little boy decided inside was better. 😳
So, even though the sun is shining, we are inside with the toys he could no longer do without.
I have found myself a sunny spot on the floor to read a few pages of this 'darkish' book.

After working in the garden all day, there is some time to read a few pages before cooking dinner.
I hope Morbidelli will let me read 😊
