Welcome to Litsy!

Not much of a plot but so, so sad. Not feeling very patriotic after this one

#BookReport 28/20

I have been spending the week in my parents‘ beach cottage. Working, reading and doing daytrips across the border into Belgium. Things could have been worse!
Of the books above I enjoyed the tagged one and Loner a lot. Such a Fun Age was enjoyable too, The Shepherd‘s Hut was okay.

Leroy, a wounded Iraq war veteran tries to kill himself. He winds up on life support and decides to retreat into a morphinated fantasy life. In the mean time Freddie, who witnessed Leroy's suicide attempt, and Pauline, his nurse, are engaged in their own struggles with modern America: the inequities of health care, the crush of debt, loneliness. Their kind, brave characters are touching - as is the book

First book down for the #bookfitnesschallenge!

I love all of Willy Vlautin‘s books, but be warned that all of them will make you cry. They‘re all about good people in seemingly hopeless situations, but it‘s worth seeing it through to the end every time.
“I know we‘re all tired. But the main thing to do when you‘re tired is to remember to be nice. Remember to be kind...”

Starting this tonight. How do people who don‘t read even enjoy life? 😂🤓🤓🤓

This seems like it will be depressing and heartbreaking. Sure, why not? Let's read this next.

Fantastic book. Wonderful. A must read for Fans of Brautigan and Atwood. Loved it.

Love the tenderness between the characters. Yes, when having a crap day, be kind to yourself. Great advice.

This book made me tear-up more than once. Such tender characters. On a train, hence the blur.

My father-in-law lent me this a while ago. I've had Bookclub books log-jamming my tbr pile but I've cast one aside for something different and this certainly fits the bill. Am loving it so far.
