Welcome to Litsy!

44/100 I've always enjoyed Chris Hayes' TV show, and this book is very relevant to today's information overload society. Our attention is divided by many sources fighting for our views, twits, posts and likes. As readers, we all know the struggle to maintain our attention, when the cellphone, the internet, and the TV is trying to lure away our attention. Donald Trump is the first president of the "Attention Age", someone pathetically unqualified⬇️

This was such a cute middle grade romance!

The book is about tween girls and their crushes which reminded me of when I was that age. I always had crushes and would obsess over them just like the main character, Julie. Having crushes at that age is so fun and the book encompasses that.

I normally zip through Douglas's books. In this one, I reached a point where I guessed what was going to happen and I couldn't finish. Therefore, I put the book down and picked it up again a couple of days ago. No surprises. Just as expected. The plot was good just predictable. 3.5🌟 #Read2025 @DieAReader At just over 500 pages this is one for #ChunksterChallenge2025 @Amiable #AllergicToChunksters @julieclair

I so need a guy like the MMC, Ford. Just don't tell hubby. 🤫😉😅 I loved the characters and the snarky banter between them. The plot was good too if a bit slow in places. Already looking forward to book two in the series. 4🌟 #SeriesLove2025 @Andrew65 #Read2025 @DieAReader

Finished the Sunday before last for #EBBR & I need to review these right after finishing them or take notes because I promptly forgot the (2?) that stumped me & I returned the library book.🤔Ah, well… also I couldn‘t get the ebook or print from the library at first so I tried the free audible version but I find I like reading these more than listening to them so I transferred the print copy in. Fun nostalgia as always.⬇️

Finished this weekend for #BobWhiteBuddies there is always a chance of #Danger when Trixie Belden is around. This one was a favorite growing up probably because of the NYC setting & finally, Dan gets to go somewhere! (Granted it‘s within state lines but anyway…) I can still recite the first 2 lines of the fortune Trixie is given by a fortune teller she helps at the airport which is pretty impressive since ⬇️

Lovely story about teenage love. Great plot with characters to die for. Pacing was a touch slow but the story was so good I easily overlooked it. 4🌟

This was just okay for me. It was character driven, so there‘s not much actually happening. I prefer plot driven stories!

I finished this last week but I‘m behind in reviews. Read for #MonthlyNonFiction it was also one of my April #Roll100 picks (#16 Any Non-Fiction). It was an interesting juxtaposition to read this book while watching random famous people try to pass themselves off as astronauts & having Nancy Drew solve a mystery with exploding oranges at Cape Canaveral. I remember being in class (college) in the morning when they wheeled in a tv & ⬇️

This is age gap (10 years), forbidden romance where the MMC falls in love with his best friend's little sister. I liked it. It was all fluff. Yet, the author did a great job making me care about the characters. 4🌟 #SeriesLove2025 @Andrew65 #Read2025 @DieAReader
