Love the Will Trent series

CatLass007 I haven‘t read any of this yet but I think I‘ve got the first one on hold. What I really want to say is that the bookstore in the picture looks so homey, comfortable, and GORGEOUS. Where is it located? (edited) 21h

CoverToCoverGirl Me too!🙂 13h

Hooked_on_books I agree about the bookstore! Fabulous! 11h

The Evidence of Things Not Seen: Reissued Edition | James Baldwin

pick

Honouring the contributions and achievements of the Black community this month and every month. What better place to start than with the brilliant mind of James Baldwin!

The murder of 28 children in Atlanta between 1979 -1981, is used as a jumping off point to dissect race and race relations in America, as only the great James Baldwin can.

What‘s your favourite work by James Baldwin?

PurpleyPumpkin This sounds so interesting. Strangely enough, I‘ve not yet read a JB book. I must rectify that! Would this be a good book to start with? Or is there another that you‘d recommend to begin with? 2w

PurpleyPumpkin And a big welcome to Litsy!😉 2w

TreenaReads @PurpleyPumpkin A really great one but not sure it‘s an appropriate one to start with. I‘ve only read 4 of his works, so I am not sure I would be the best to advise you. However, the Guardian- my trusted source for all things book has wrote this article https://www.theguardian.com/books/article/2024/aug/02/where-to-start-with-james-... 1w

TreenaReads @PurpleyPumpkin ❤️Thank you! 1w

Gotta say, I liked this one a sight more than ‘Triptych‘. I‘m still not a big fan of Angie‘s but, I‘m willing to give her the benefit of the doubt for now.

This may be my favorite installment. I also appreciated her subtle plug of Uncle Nearest.

I almost gave up on this book in the first 30%
But I'm happy I stuck to it.

I'm a big slaughter fan, in fact I re-read the entire Grant County and Will Trent series before I picked up this one. So there wasn't a year gap of me trying to patiently wait for the next book. And I think that makes a difference.
I was in this Slaughter flow and this book just wasn't what I expected to be next in the flow

Enchanted_Bibliophile It did however turned out brilliantly as all Slaughter's work does. My problem was that I just couldn't care less about Mercy and the McAlpine family. I still don't really do, and that's weird, because Slaughter usually makes me care even when I don't feel like it.

I am however very happy with all my other favourite characters showing up and growing into more lovable people all around.
I'm curious to see where Slaughter will take us next year 2mo

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ book 2 of the Will Trent series was pretty much episode 1 of the show, so a few spoilers for me. (I‘ve stopped watching the show to prevent this moving forward 😁) but I love Will!!! Sometimes my heart breaks for him.

Listening to tagged book and enjoying some Christmas ambiance before work this morning. Anyone know if there‘s a #holidaycardswap this year? I signed up for a lovely winter themed one, but I really enjoyed the Christmas one I did last year. Litsy is my cozy holiday home.

PuddleJumper @LitsyEvents is keeping track of things happening. I think that's a winter card swap 4mo

dabbe @TheBookHippie is the lovely host of the Winter Solstice Card Swap. Head to her page for details. 💚 4mo

The Untelling | Tayari Jones

There was a (black owned!) bookseller (The Soul Book Nook from Waterloo, IA) at the conference, so I picked up a couple titles. Then I got myself a candle and cute wrapping paper to treat myself this afternoon.

Suet624 Oh! You‘ve just reminded me that I want to read more McCammon. 4mo
