Welcome to Litsy!

When Kenichi and Haruto Yamada escape from a Japanese internment camp during WWII, an FBI agent is sent to investigate. What unfolds is a story of a family grudge, an unlikely friendship, and a daredevil barnstorming act. I loved the structure of the story that digs into the history of two families and moves forward as the historical present day investigation works back to meet up with a satisfying resolution to the mystery. My November #bookspin

I took the day off thinking (that I needed a day off...) that I would help my mom with the prep for Thanksgiving dinner. Alas, we axed Thanksgiving dinner, so now I am doing this and hoping it proves distracting enough to keep me from obsessively checking my work email on a day I‘m not working. Work life balance, I have it. #hahanope

I love Suzanne Rindell, a must read author for me, BUT this doesn‘t stack up to her first two books. I liked the setting, the story, and the inspiration. On the flip side, it felt like the action could have started sooner—the pacing was off. The characters didn‘t come alive for me. I used this one for #soldierstory for #booked2019 because WWII was an integral part of the book and one of the MC‘s brothers enlisted, which was the catalyst for ⬇️

WWII love triangle. The escape of two Japanese prisoners from an internment camp brings an FBI agent to town. Soon after, they're found dead from a plane crash in which they were thought to be fleeing. As the agent seeks answers he begins to unravel the story of two young men, two planes, and the woman who ties them all together. Fulfilled multiple challenges with this one.

When you have an appointment an hour after work so you stop at the library...hopefully I can get to these before I have to return them!! #SoManyOnMyTBR

It took a little while to get into it, but I really enjoyed this story.

I read The Other Typist recently and really enjoyed the style and the story so I picked this up at library. It took me awhile to get into but ultimately I enjoyed.

Have some time to kill in New York today, so I discovered a little hideaway.

Amtrak-ing to New York today. Loved both The Other Typist and Three-Martini Lunch, so I'm excited for this one.

Three day weekend means I will hopefully put a dent in this book

I absolutely loved Rindell‘s first two books, so I pre ordered this one. The picture is of Rindell‘s grandfather Norbert, who is the inspiration behind the book. As an aviator during WWII, he often told stories of some of the crazy stunts he saw, including “wing walkers”.

In #Eagle & Crane, two men travel around California during the Depression putting on illegal aviation shows. The novel is about their flying circus. #abbainaugust

I just returned The Other Typist to the library and saw her latest on the new release shelf. #catsoflitsy

I forgot to post my #bookmail from the other day. I pre ordered this as soon as I finished Three Martini Lunch. That and The Other Typist we‘re both so fantastic that Rindell instantly became a must-read author for me! #bookdepository
