Litsy

so-so

I am not as mad about this as other Litsy members seem to be. I thought this was fine. I liked that the Senator was not named. This was not his story. I prefer this - a side character story vs books that take a still alive famous person & novelize their story
The writing is good, I liked the pacing. Overall though it is a book that didn't make an impact on me and I will probably forget I read it by end of the year. I would read the author again.

AmyG I swear….I don‘t think anyone liked this book. 🤣 1w

ChaoticMissAdventures @AmyG I thought it was fine. I didn't dislike it. I feel like there are worse books on the list LoL 1w

mcctrish I ended up bailing because school got too busy and the library clawed back my audio book loan. I liked it but I wasn‘t driven to find time to listen that I didn‘t have 1w

ChaoticMissAdventures @mcctrish I totally get that. The book didn't seem to draw anyone in. Which is a shame I really love the cover. 1w

ChaoticMissAdventures @BarbaraBB it will be hilarious if it end up winning! 1w

BarbaraBB It definitely won‘t in our parallel#LitsyToB25! 1w

mcctrish The cover is fantastic 1w

James: A Novel | Percival Everett

We do have our #CampLitsy24 winner and it‘s a good one. James received by far the most votes, followed by Clear.

Meg, Helen and I have so enjoyed camp with all of you and we are very happy with all your thoughts and insights during the discussions, which have add so much to the books and the reading experience.

We thank you all and hope to see you next year again, or maybe during #LitsyToB25 😀🤍

Megabooks, squirrelbrain
