Welcome to Litsy!

See how I got those love glasses on; it‘s because I love this book! I love the author. I love that she is from an island but now lives in my home away from home. The book is amazing. It was heartbreaking but also so life giving. I saw a lot of similarities between Bahamas and my island and it breaks my heart but in a motivating way; inspiring me to be better. That‘s what we need in all literature. This book pulled me out of my slump. 🙂 #blitsy

Janice Lynn Mather's debut novel resonates with warmth and purpose in a style that is almost poetic. It worked for me and made the characters real.

“A powerful, poignant story about refusing to let the past dictate who you are or who you will become.” —Kirkus Reviews When Indy is sent to live with relatives in Nassau, trouble follows her. Now she must hide an unwanted pregnancy from her aunt, who would rather throw Indy out onto the street than see the truth. Indy is about to discover that home is much bigger than just four walls and a roof—it‘s about the people she chooses to share it with.

Highly recommend this YA fiction book about family relationships, struggling to be more than a stereotype and perseverance. Loved the main character Indy. This is a part of the blurb inside the jacket cover that sums up the premise of the book.

Enjoyed Indy‘s story of wanting to be normal and learning to breathe. Set against a backdrop of family bonds, broken trust, and finding your own identity when everyone around her kept telling her who they thought she was, in unflattering terms. Vivid descriptions of places and especially food. Also liked the yoga retreat and its staff.

Heard this was good, but so far it‘s even better than expected! #bookaholic #pleasantlysurprised #reading

Back to some ereading. I've been told this one is super good.
