Welcome to Litsy!

You know how you go into a story thinking you‘re reading one thing and it ends up being something completely different? That‘s this book. I thought it was going to be some sort of feel good mystery and it ended up being more of a sci-fi conservationist call to arms. I think the message was awesome, but it just wasn‘t what I was expecting. That being said I enjoyed seeing the main character learn to love life again. Strange but interesting. 🌟🌟🌟

5 stars and more for me. This should be a high school read! Grace has lost her husband and son and she herself feels done with life. A house on Ibiza is gifted to her and the story takes off. This is my ya/adult Wrinkle in Time. Anyone else feel that? Loved this read. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

sucked me in. almost wish it was longer to develop more of the tension of the story and the character of the villain, Art. seems like it could have almost been a series of books. great mix of a good story with philosophical and life affirming truths. 4 out of 5.

“We aren‘t just a person, we aren‘t just a gender, we aren‘t just an age, we aren‘t just a nationality, we aren‘t just a species. The walls between us are imaginary. The thoughts we have that our ours are gloriously unique but also gloriously in the same continuing spectrum.”
Not my favourite Matt Haig, but still worth the read.

This is my first novel by this author and it was beautifully written. I will definitely read more of his novels!

This book takes forever to get going and reads like a self-indulgent “I had a hit book and now don‘t need to be edited” project. Bailing at the halfway point.

I ate this Lotus Biscoff Cheesecake without the cheese 🧀🧀 while I listened to Matt Haig. I decided to use Greek yogurt which I absolutely love, in place of cheese in this recipe because the price of cheese is prohibitive in my corner of the world. It turned out really divine 😋😋😋

Salut...Starting now with an afternoon snack of home made cookies and milk. I think I'm in for the best Friday afternoon ever.

Hoping to finish this tonight but I guess we shall see 🤞😜

Ready to jump into this one 🙌🏼
I‘ve been looking forward to this for a while now. After a new release, I usually wait for the price to go down before buying anything. But I recently scored tickets to attend a reading event with Matt Haig in October, so basically *had* to buy and read it NOW in preparation ☺️☺️😇

This one was kinda odd but I enjoyed the message of living your life and not wallowing in the past and your regrets. A lot of magical realism to make the story fantastical and creative. Overall, I enjoyed listening to it.

Eeeeeeee! My Book of the Month box arrived yesterday! I feel like the choices for September were really incredible! Probably going to start with the tagged book first! 🥰📚 #botm

Yes, yes, yes! I always say books come to you when you need them and Matt‘s latest certainly has. Go read it, then enjoy and find joy with all the small things 🌞

This enlightened eco-mystery is set in Ibiza and stars a retired math teacher on an inspiring adventure about healing, feeling, self-forgiveness, and a transformative love for the natural world. While this didn‘t speak to me personally like The Midnight Library did, it won me over in the end. I really appreciate Matt Haig‘s distinctive voice and his earnestness about mental health, so much.

Matt Haig's exquisite words permeate these novel combining magical realism and fantasy. A retired mathematics teacher vacations on the Spanish Isles where something miraculous makes her question life's existential purpose.
