Welcome to Litsy!

So this wasn‘t what I was expecting- it‘s a stream of consciousness style - which I don‘t care for. I was expecting a thriller, especially because of the cover, but it was not, so it fell flat for me. If you‘re into the stream of consciousness stuff, you might like it. But I did finish my #bookspin book before the end of the month!😁📚📖 @TheAromaofBooks

Finishing my #bookspin book today! 😊

A little behind, but here is my #bookspinbingo board! The tagged book is my #bookspin, and my #doublespin is So This Is Love. The F‘s are the free spaces and I just chose random books for placeholders.😁📚📖. @TheAromaofBooks

This book is stunning. Judith, a teenager in a Puritan village, is kidnapped and held for two years. Eventually, her captor releases her, but first he maims her horribly and leaves Judith to contend with the aftermath as she returns to a village where her family, her love, and her sense of self have been permanently changed. (continued in comments)

5⭐'s. I loved this book more than I thought I would! It's set in ye olden days which isn't something I read too often. A young woman that gets abducted for 2 years and gets her tongue cut out returns home. She has to live her life ignored and thought to be cursed for something she had no control over. Is there away for her to talk again?

This book is about a Puritan girl who is kidnapped by the village crazy and held captive for two years before he cuts out her tongue and sends her back. I actually liked the book, but neither of these covers evokes a single thing about the book for me.

I don't believe in miracles, but if the need is great, a girl might make her own miracle

#BookMail A few are from a used bookstore called 1,2,3 Books, and the rest are from #BookOutlet ? All are hardback and they were all $2 or less and Lord of the Flies was brand new and still wrapped! Even more of a surprise, one of the best things about BookOutlet, Thirteen Reasons Why was a signed edition! Same price and unexpected ? I have every letter except for "I" now, on my #LitsyAtoZChallange list.

This book! Awesome YA story and a killer romance.

Judith Finch is a girl growing up in a /Little House on the Prairie/-esque town called Roswell Station. Her childhood is ordinary enough until she witnesses the murder of her best friend. Her life is spared but she is hidden away for two years until she is released back into the town. Judith must face challenges such as the marriage of her longtime crush, an attack on her hometown, and identifying her kidnapper--all while being mute and illiterate

Judith is a kickass heroine cannot speak after she was attacked and her tongue was cut out. Yet fight back she does.

This book was an unexpected treat this year.

I love the writing style of this book 😍

Two girls disappear, but only one comes back, mute and scarred. This psychological historical thriller is fragmented, has shifting timelines, and is told in second person, but don't let that scare you off! It's intense and unforgettable, with shades of high-pitched emotions evoked by THE CRUCIBLE.

Want something haunting and different? this is it. It is written in second person, and tells the story of a puritanical society where a girl goes missing and comes back a mute. Thriller, historical, just phenomenal.
