Welcome to Litsy!

Book 31 of 2024! Another good thriller from Shari Lapena! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Super cute mystery/romance. This was a book club almost pick (we settled on something else). Not sure where my friend found this but I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Good but not great, not as twisty as I expect from her & lots of time spent not on the main mystery.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I was a huge fan of Backman‘s “Anxious People”, so when I saw that my library had a well-loved copy of “A Man Called Ove”, I took the chance. This book is simultaneously heartwarming and heartbreaking, and I‘m so glad I read it. The found-family trope was well done and even the ending was very satisfying.

“Then you arrive at home again, and you look at your window from the outside. Someone you love is waving at you, and you can't wait to go in. So you do.“

This can teach children to fully embrace the beauty of all of the lives around them. This would be good to have in a classroom where students have a habit of being negative. We can work on bringing positivity!

“Windows“ by Julia Denos is a colorfully illustrated picture book with a beautiful sunset on almost every page. This story shows how each window you can look into holds another unique and beautiful life happening inside. It teaches young children to appreciate their own life as well as the ones happening around them.
