Welcome to Litsy!

A melancholy, unsettling book that left me with more questions than answers.

You'll “never know what it‘s like here.”

That's pretty much how I felt. Is it speculative fiction? Magical realism? Female dystopian? Folk horror? A bit of all of the above? Maybe. Kind of. I'm not sure.

I was that strange visitor from Elsewhere in this surreal, particular world. In the end, I'm not even sure what to think.

Book 2 #fabulousfebruary
#roll100 roll 3

A story of two teens, each with their own struggles, who meet & become BFFs. It was okay. The writing felt like it was meant for more middle grade than YA, but some of the subject matter was more teen than MG. While a sweet story, it really wasn‘t my cup of tea.

I did like the message “Be Awesome”

Book 7 for #joyousjanuary

Book 6/50 for #readoffmyshelf

The start of my February TBR:
Roll 1: The Singles Table by Sara Desai

#Roll100 is definitely helping with my #ReadOffMyShelf challenge.

I also set-up my TBR spreadsheet to randomize the titles. So each month it will be a surprise which ones will be that month‘s #roll100 & #bookspin 😀 I do love a good spreadsheet!
