Welcome to Litsy!

Was 🏡 for the hols but leaving 2morrow. Went 2 Salvos with mum 2day. She found me the linen tea towel (a steal at $2) of my fav country & godson & I scored some $1 📚! Lots of dvds to watch over the school holidays plus some crafty projects. The 👖 are Uniqlo for $6 & perfect 4 work. They‘ve functional pockets! There r some travel sized toiletries 4 my waterskiing trip in a wk or so & 1 can never have enough tea strainers. Total🟰 $34.40.

Just finished watching season 2 - was hooked just as throughly! This season featured an actor who was in a show I watched growing up so it did hurt a little to see him play a baddie.

Reading the book synopsis makes me think that storylines were blended - if anyone has read it - I am curious about the fate of Twist. Unfortunately it hasn‘t got enough traction online for someone to have written one of those handy book vs show articles.

This thought-provoking book is a mix of unusual personal/family memoir and what feels like a NF version of Labatut‘s How We Cease to Understand the World. It ruminates on life, death, war, and more. I found it fascinating and I‘m glad it serves as my final completed book of 2024. #TOBlonglist

The perfect start to NYE… Be safe all going out to celebrate!

All these were great!

As we get ready to move into this last week of 2024/beginning of 2025, remember to take time for self-care, everyone!

This was hands down my favorite from May! I just loved the way the story was told and I‘ll definitely read more by this author.

On my second book of the day (the first was a re-read of Christmas Cupcake Murder) while the hubs plays Witcher and we wait for the Independence Bowl to start. Have to get in all the fun reading I can while winter break is still on! Hope you‘re all having a good weekend!

Book 9 for my #TenBeforeTheEnd and one I‘ve had on my shelf since it was long listed for the Women‘s Prize years ago. An entertaining tale based on true events in a whaling community in 1908. The main character Mary is funny and the writing had me laughing out loud a few times. Glad I finally read it!
