Welcome to Litsy!

For my 2026 #BookSpinBingo, here are my personal rules to fit my life!

- #BookSpin & #DoubleSpin are priorities.
- The #BookSpin book is replaced by my book club's monthly pick. Original book in that spot moves to #25.
- NetGalley reviews go in #24 & can swap with any spot. No NetGalley means #24 becomes a free choice that is fixed.
- #23 is a mood read. I can swap it with any other spot on the board, but I can only do this once per month.

I‘ve spent the day enjoying this one.

2.5⭐
• horror thriller • psychological suspense • mystery involving kidnapping • theatrics • isolation • the will to survive • single POV

Overall, it's an ambitious idea that may have been beyond the author's reach. That said, I'll give her credit for a truly original kidnapping premise. Like, this was wild AF. I couldn't get into the mediocre writing, and some believability issues compounded the problem.
🎙️Carolyn Jania was okay, but not great.

First book of 2026 and it was…fine I guess. Really should have been like 200 pages shorter. I found myself skimming a lot over the more science dense parts. Image of the view from our hotel room in Chula Vista, CA which is our new home for the next 60 days while my husband is here for work!! So looking for any must visit indie bookstores in San Diego!

I feared this would happen, that either Wood or Marsons would be on the list twice. At least this is another series, so it doesn‘t really count, does it? Anyway, one of the best series and authors ever ❤️ #12BooksOf2025

Ugh. Not really worth the slog. I loved the idea of this book, but had t realized before now what a horrible writer Dan Brown is. The science was cool, though!

5 Stars • 6th Robert Langdon thriller: Robert Langdon joins girlfriend Katherine Solomon (from The Lost Symbol) in Prague for her lecture on human consciousness. Her research proves consciousness persists after death as scientific evidence for an afterlife. Katherine vanishes; Langdon races through Prague's landmarks, tunnels, and secrets, evading assassin and a shadowy organization.

Sitting in my living room, under a blanket, in a recliner, and listening to the audiobook. Hubby is watching football. I‘m feeling very comfy and cozy.

Started off pretty interesting, had me gripped for a bit. Then it just went off and became something less exciting and more eye roll inducing. Just felt like a nothing burger book that tried to be a huge conspiracy, but ended up falling flat.
