Welcome to Litsy!

"Please, dear, I'm not angry, really I'm not, but you must tell me: what have you done?"

I really enjoyed this distinctly Capote in the writing the story and vibe remind me of Gatsby. The hot NY summer, young people mixing in and out of their socioeconomic classes and getting themselves into trouble, this is a perfect hot day read.

For minutes, like a circulating presence, the sour sweet sweat smell of him stayed in the air, but a trifling breeze passed through the room, taking him with it: so she opened her eyes, lonely.

Thanks for the tag @jenniferw88 !

Starting off my May reading challenge with a classic! #books #amreading #bookstagram #Mayreads #May #booknerd

This novella was only discovered in 2004 and is said to be the inspiration for Breakfast at Tiffany‘s. I loved the story of a privileged girl meeting an unsuitable boy told with Capote‘s waspish words.

The only thing I remember about this book is that I‘ve read it. 😆😆

It sounds lovely though. Grady McNeil spends the summer living alone in the family penthouse, carrying on a torrid affair that leads to a series of decisions that will affect the course of her life.

It's a waiting game today at my interpreting assignment. I've already finished Yoko Ogawa's Diving Pool (164 pages) and am getting started in Summer Crossing now (126 pages) and I've still got about 4.5 hours to go. Guess I should have packed more books 😔

This book is perfect if you just want a quick, easy summer read. And it's by one of the greatest authors!
