Welcome to Litsy!

I enjoy haunting memoirs. The author‘s story appears on the tv series Paranormal Witness, Season 2, Episode 2…but her book is much better. For years, she lived in fear in the old Brooklyn house she and her family lived in, until finding out what happened to the restless spirits occupying her home, and why they were there. Fascinating, personal. Books like this help open up the conversation for what many experience but fear to talk about.

I picked up this novella for a quick beach read and that was its perfect purpose. It is a lightweight, feel good story about Scott Carey, a man who finds himself to be less and less affected by gravity, but still determined to make inroads with his married lesbian neighbors who desperately need an ally in their small town. I was disappointed that this wasn‘t spooky, but it‘s still a sweet read about a man working to heal his community. Soft pick.

This was a pretty good book. It was very well described and very imaginative. Im excited to read more of Joe Hills works.

Blue Exorcist, volume 26
It has been a long while since I last read this series. Good thing there are those Story so Far summary at the beginning 😅

Just can‘t do it. If I have to hear about the walls bleeding again, I am going to scream! This book felt more like a cozy horror story than anything actually scary. It has humor in it which is great but not what I was expecting. Looooooong chapters, slow progression in the story, repetitive and a potty mouthed daughter that overly rivals my own mouth, made me say #hailtothebail

A good story about the five children who survived a cult, four of whom have spent 15 years trying to make sense of it. Chapters from the past and chapters from the present culminate in the discovery of what really happened all those years ago. I had to suspend my sense of disbelief to get to the end of this one. A soft pick as the characters didn‘t really resonate with me, yet the mystery kept my attention.

Somehow the adventures in this book were much more high-stakes than usual, and the storytelling was a bit more solid. We got an excellent look into Reiko's past, Nyanko Sensei's motivations, and Natsume's relationship with his foster family. #Manga

Another delightful set of adventures. Always fun to have returning side characters. The arm reaching through the ceiling definitely made me laugh but I would probably panic if that happened to me 😆 #Manga
