Welcome to Litsy!

This is the first book in a new series that features Ruby, a young woman, & Cordelia, a 40 something woman who is a ghost and used to live in Ruby's apartment. I enjoyed it as it was a decent mystery about the death of a neighbour and had nice humor and quirky characters. The ending sets us up for the next book, which I look forward to reading. My only beef was why does Cordelia not print using pen & paper? Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC. 4/5 !

This was a good book to check out from the library. Will I re-read it? No. Am I invested enough for a second book? Yeah, if I need something to read. It landed for me between “Meh” and “A Pick”, so if that helps your decision process. Word of warning: do not start a drinking game of taking a shot every time you read, “We need a real way to communicate better”, you will be drunk very early on because it is said a lot 😆😵‍💫🥴

1. Sunsets because I enjoy sleeping in 😂
2. Funny ghost story (so far, I just finished chapter 1 lol)

A New Lease on Death is a special mystery with curious characters that immediately piqued my interest. I found these roommates to be very entertaining and I am excited to see this series continue. I can only imagine the possibilities.

A great #SpookySeason read! This mystery, told through two perspectives— the ghost of a woman in her forties & the twenty year old who takes over the lease on the furnished apartment— makes for a fun read! Cordelia & Ruby work together to solve the murder of the guy living across the hallway in “their”Boston apartment building. With struggles to communicate & plenty of lingering questions, this feels fresh & leaves you eager for the sequel!

“A darkly funny supernatural mystery that introduces an unlikely crime-solving duo.

This hardcover binding debut from Blacke launches a commercial, unique, and genre-blending series that will leave you begging for more.”

I‘m currently reading this Netgalley ARC coming out October 29. I wasn‘t sure what to think about this book at first but it‘s fun. It has a ghost and a human trying to solve a murder mystery together. Since my dog passed away on Friday morning, I feel like this is what I want to read right now since I‘m feeling like I just want to read fun books right now.

I was invited to read the tagged book but I‘m going to wait until Sept to read it because I need a break from reading ARCs for a while. I haven‘t read the Finlay Donavan or Charley Davidson series. Charley Davidson makes me think of the motorcycle brand Harley Davidson. I wonder if there‘s motorcycles in that series. One day at the dog park, I actually saw and heard 2 guys riding motorcycles in my neighborhood. It was cool to see that.
