Welcome to Litsy!

Anyone on Storygraph or Fable? I'm switching from GoodReads in 2025 so thought I'd see if any of my litsy friends are on there! Bonus photo of Pickles on his new favorite tree skirt lol

(2006) It's the kind of thriller where the lead returns home after a long absence and investigates a murder only to find themself investigating their own past. The lead in this case has made some spectacularly bad choices and continues to make bad choices still. It's all very sordid, and finally lost me when the lead went partying with her kid sister. Others have loved it, and I think I understand its gritty appeal, but it was a miss for me.

This book is not my favorite work of hers? I'm wondering if I'd have liked it more if I hadn't read sharp objects & dark places first? Who knows.

This mystery takes me to KC (my husband‘s hometown) which is so festive this time of year and home to Hallmark.

I seriously dislike the husband, but I'm also not a fan of the wife either. Picture of my cat Pickles, he is mad I'm reading and not petting him.(also yes that is a tp roll behind him, it's Olives favorite toy currently so I have half a dozen around the place lol)

A tale inspired by true events, showing how a teacher in Missouri defied unjust laws to educate Black students in the 1840s.

Thank you @Grissy for everything!!! I love it all, my spooky dog also loved it! 😄 I cannot wait to read the books! I have not read Stolen tongues yet but it sounds very interesting and I am definitely going to put it on my TBR! #AllHallowsReadSwap2024
