Welcome to Litsy!

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Tom Violet is having, um, bedroom performance problems. 🥴 His job sucks, his marriage is suffering. He‘s a damn mess. What he wants is to become a writer like his narcissistic, literary award-winning father. As expected, everything pretty much goes to hell, but I couldn‘t help pulling for Tom, even though he‘s not without fault. I like a good male-authored relationship/family fiction now and then. Plus, Norman brings the dark humor.

I absolutely love everything this man writes! Although a slightly unrealistic and silly family drama, in 'Domestic Violets' Matthew Norman has created a wonderfully complex family of quirky, imperfect, flawed and totally lovable characters. His writing is fluid and funny, amazingly relatable and the story of the Violet family is uplifting and heartwarming. An absolute must read! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #Booked2020 #covercrush #LitsyAtoZ #abecedarianTBR #D

Dewey's Readathon countdown, Day 8: The prompt is "funny." One of my favorite genres is "humorous midlife existential angst," which I just made up. And this book nails it. #readathon #30DaysofReadathon ???

"So I'm following the map that leads to you." This story is told from the view of a 30 something smartass. He's in a midlife crisis. Things are not looking too hot on the home front or at the job. Luckily he has a #map in the form of a philandering father who happens to be a well loved author to help him find his way back. This book is about relationships, familial and spousal, and is funny and poignant. Good stuff.

This one was boring. It was a meandering story of a 35 year old man re-evaluating his life. A lot of self pity involved. Did read it all the way through so that's why 2 stars.
⭐️⭐️

I loved this quick read! It was funny and vulnerable and very human. If you're looking for something quick and witty and touching, this is the perfect read.

Finally squeezing this one in. Yay!
