Welcome to Litsy!

My #20BestOf2020 is actually only nine. Not nearly enough reading this year given that it‘s been...you know...2020. But still, these were really good and the best of what I did read. Several new to me authors and my favorite is tagged. These lists are really helping me get excited about my reading plans for the new year and it‘s nice to look toward to that.

Here are my #top6reads so far for 2020. My favorite is tagged and they appear in order of favorite-ness. And looking at this graphic, I‘m realizing my tastes are strangely eclectic. 🤔

1. Currently the back patio. But once it hits the 90‘s in Georgia, it‘ll be inside until September. 🥵
2. Mediterranean Chicken. I have lots of olives due to my use of olive juice in dirty martinis...so I finally found a recipe for all those olives. SO YUMMY. https://toriavey.com/toris-kitchen/mediterranean-olive-chicken/
3. Tagged
4. Two - Cat & Dog

Just finished and I am immediately jealous of the person who gets to read this novel for the first time. Two women meet in the streets of London during VE Day celebrations. We follow their unlikely friendship for twenty years through successes, failures, jealousies, jobs, men and even an estrangement. An intricate look at the messiness and reward of friendship - I wish I were meeting them for a gin and tonic later this evening. 5⭐️

“...it was a sanctum for the sort of people who regarded daylight as an unsatisfactory hiatus between nights....”

I‘m loving Quinn‘s putting-together-of-the-words in setting the mood. Perfection.

“The bus, which had been snailing up Whitehall, had nearly come to a standstill in the crowd.”

This is such a good book. It opens in the streets of London during VE Day...thus the stalled bus.
