James: A Novel | Percival Everett
post image

#ToB25 and #LitsyToB25 have taken very different roads this year (which makes it so fun!) but in the end we all agree (at least a majority does 😉) on James as the winner of both tournaments. Percival Everett finally takes away the 🐓!

Thank you all for participating in this year‘s LitsyToB and I hope to see you next year. But before that, it won‘t be long until we‘ll be back with #CampLitsy25! Meg, Helen and I hope you‘ll join us there!

AmyG Thank you so very much. Camp Litsy will be here before we know it! 4w
ChaoticMissAdventures Yay!! Thank you! This was fun to see, I know people wanted to root for underdogs but I really feel like this book deserves all of the flowers. And we all got to read some other interesting books along the way! 4w
Suet624 Thank you so much for doing this. I really appreciate it. 4w

Lesliereadsalot Chiming in with my thanks Barbara! Added lots of new books TBR! I did love James, so happy it won out. 4w
Bookwormjillk Thanks very much! Can‘t wait for Camp Litsy and hope that next year‘s books will be a little less awesome than James so that the winners won‘t be quite so obvious. 4w
Hooked_on_books It‘s a wonderful, worthy book and deserves accolades, but I would also like to see the love spread around a little bit. Thanks for hosting once again and all that goes along with it! 4w
Kristy_K @BarbaraBB Thank you for organizing! I‘m glad to see James won. 4w
squirrelbrain Yes, I was only thinking about that the other day! @Megabooks ☺️ 4w
BarbaraBB @squirrelbrain @Megabooks Looking forward to doing this again with you two ❤️ 4w
Megabooks @squirrelbrain @BarbaraBB already thinking about the 4 I want to nominate!! 4w
kwmg40 I'm happy with the result and had a great time following both #ToB25 and #LitsyToB25. Thank you so much for hosting! 4w
cariashley Woop woop, what a great year all around! I‘m happy and unsurprised with the outcome as James was probably favorite read of 2024. I still think he should have won TOB for The Trees. Thank you so much for organizing again, it‘s been so fun! 4w
sarahbarnes @BkClubCare that‘s another great one! He really is just a phenomenal writer. 3w
Butterfinger My first year that I read so many from the list. I enjoyed it immensely. Thank you. 3w
BarbaraBB @fredthemoose @lesliereadalot @GatheringBooks @Butterfinger Thank you so much for joining. I am glad you enjoyed it. I‘ll tag you for #CampLitsy25 this Summer, which is the best! 3w
BarbaraBB @Megabooks @squirrelbrain I need to dive into the booklist but I can‘t wait to do so. We‘ll email soon - I always forget when we start posting and in what order things go! Xxx 3w
Gissy I really want to read it but I will read Huckleberry Finn first 🤷🏽‍♀️ 3w
Megabooks Usually we start talking now and post around late April so people have time to vote and then buy winning books before June. @BarbaraBB @squirrelbrain I‘ll try to pop an email today or tomorrow. 3w
squirrelbrain Look forward to hearing from you! @Megabooks 3w
