Welcome to Litsy!

Starting this since I finished Station Eleven & learned that there are connections with that book, this book, and Sea of Tranquility. I must say I‘m not enjoying the audiobook narrator - she doesn‘t do mens‘ voices well. Oh well…

Hello #AuthorAMonth Readers! We have one more week with Emily St John Mandel. 😁📚🩷

June brings us SA Cosby. You may want to find him on your shelves or put in your orders or library holds now.

Happy Reading!

I found The Symphony on Instagram!

Diving into this one on a very grey Sunday morning. I see that quite a few Littens have read this for #AuthorAMonth #AAM. I‘m holding off on reading their reviews until I finish reading as well. Hope you‘re all enjoying your weekend!📚

Up next! #authoramonth @Soubhiville

This week I finally started this book. I had more anxiety while reading the ‘buy everything you can at the grocery store‘ scene than I did during our actual COVID pandemic. I‘m excited to see how this book plays out. Thanks @Soubhiville for hosting #AuthorAMonth and finally getting me to read this book I‘ve had on my shelf since 2017!! I do wonder what it would‘ve been like reading this BEFORE our pandemic.

I will always Stan Mandel‘s Station Eleven “trilogy”. I love the alternate timelines in each book and how each picks up on different characters from the previous book and spins them in a new way. But my favorite part has to be the autofictional author on book tour in 2201 when a pandemic breaks out. She is an autobuy author for me, and I can‘t wait to see what she writes next!! #AuthorAMonth

Finished last month for #AuthorAMonth
This was so enthralling, I couldn't stop listening. I loved the interconnected stories of Ruth & Nao and the subtle magical realism throughout. The characters were so well crafted and the story slow & gentle yet compelling. 5⭐

This book has such a 2020-2021 vibe that I didn‘t pick up on the first time I read it. It all comes together beautifully at the end. I don‘t know how Emily St John Mandel did it.

You don‘t have to read Station Eleven, The Glass Hotel, and this all in a row, but thanks to #AuthorAMonth I did and it was a great experience. @Soubhiville

I really liked this although I can barely tell you why. It's just well written. And once it gets going it flows quite well.

My book club at work picked this off a short list of suggestions. It's almost like I planned this. And then the senior director of our business unit signed up. Yikes. I gave my library copy to my intern because there's extra time. Hopefully she won't lose it. 😂
