Welcome to Litsy!

⭐️1/2
I like the idea behind this book, but the execution just didn‘t work for me. I felt like I was being held at a distance the whole time, so I couldn‘t truly engage with anything. Several aspects of the story felt underdeveloped, and I spent a lot of time confused while trying to understand what was happening.

Thanks for a great round, ladies! 😊 @magyklyXdelish I‘m planning to mail this tomorrow. I‘ll let you know when it‘s on the way.

Next up for #lmpbc #GroupS!

So strange. I felt lost often and it was hard to stay engaged in the story. I love the cover on this one so I was disappointed that I didn‘t enjoy it more. I hope the rest of you all do though! 🌟🌟

Well I never thought I‘d read anything about a “Hair Mafia” before, but here we are 🤣 I love Sofi‘s vivid imagination and this interesting world she created. I was just left with a few questions and this did seem to drag a bit.

I hope you girls like this one! I‘ll send this out this week :)

Sometimes when stickers are too cool, I use them as bookmarks.

I should have finished this one a week ago but I got sick again. Hoping I can finish it in the next couple days.

I definitely judge books by their covers and I‘ve been obsessed with this one.

This has been sitting on my shelf since I think last summer so I‘m definitely excited to finally get around to it!

Newest Sofi Oksanen as a holiday read. (Not found in Litsy library so that's why I tagged Norma) 😊📖

Today I went to listen to Sofi Oksanen. Her new book was published yesterday. Also got my copy signed. My second signed book from her. ❤ I told her I loved the themes of her books. She has a true talent of finding interesting point of views to history and current day. This new one is set to Ukraina. (It's not in the Litsy database so that's why the tag is on Norma)

😍😍😍❤❤

Silly plot but I‘d like to read more by this author.

Ermmmm......didn‘t hate it or love it - in fact I didn‘t understand a lot of it 🤷‍♀️ don‘t know if things were lost in translation- a lot of the time I didn‘t know what story the book was actually trying to tell.

This was pretty crazy 😁
Crusty bread and hummus
Woman mad hair
There is not a single thing anywhere near me that‘s orange!
5.4 when standing straight.....

An iteresting, often strange novel from Finnish writer Sofi Oksanen. After we spent a few days in Hesinki a few summers ago, I have tried to pick up some Finnish lit in translation when I can. Such fantastic, creative, and completely unique stuff going on! In this one, powerful rumination on ownership of women's bodies, a heroine with super-powered hair, and the underground world of trade in hair extensions and surrogates. And some cool cover art!

Thanks to @miralunasbooknook for Norma 😁
The James Patterson one is the only series I‘m still reading of his as I like the characters. Not sure how much he‘s still writing of any of them.

1. Catching up over dinner with people I used to work with
2. Not very. 5'6"?
3. Forever
4. Norma by Sofi Oksanen. I'm about halfway through & I'm still not sure what I think of it or exactly what's going on
5. I have wet hair at the moment, so here's a selfie from my recent Euro trip

Sweet birthday gift from a sweet friend! I love this cover 😍 #birthday #redhead

They're here and they're beautiful! The Last Hours is massive. Thank you to @ScorpioBookDreams for putting me on to #readersfirst I love it so much! First up is The Last Hours for a buddy read with @TrishB @Birdsong28 and @emily_m_tubb
Feel free to join in if you got a copy. They've also created one for US readers called #bookishfirst!

Meh- I liked parts of this more than the overall book...it has fantastic elements mixed with a sort of unbelievable criminal plot... I finished it but it wasn‘t a favorite! #AllAutumnColors #OctoberLibrary17 @librarylooter @anniekslibrary

⭐⭐⭐⭐ bom, embora um tanto estranho. Merece uma releitura.

Uma vinhaça e uma nova leitura

This cover is 🔥🔥🔥

I love vintage looking photography! #ReadJanuary #EndPaper

Norma is one of my favourite books ever. I don't think it's translated to English yet but the Nordic translations exist already. #titlewithapropername #readjanuary
