Welcome to Litsy!

During a delayed and stressful Australian flight, an elderly passenger tells the other passengers how and when they will die. After the flight, some of her “predictions” begin to come true. Is the “Death Lady” a psychic, a fraud, or just a confused old woman? The ride to find the answer is a rollicking one.

Why? Because Hozier holding a snake is hot 🥵.

Second audiobook in the series. Superb, clever, and darkly funny. 5 stars.

Finally got around to reading this book. Amazing. It‘s my most outstanding read so far for this year. Australian it may be but the themes are applicable to many places, the world really. I learnt a lot about the Tamils. As a child we immigrated to Australia and we stopped in Ceylon. After the noise , smells and rush of India, the previous stop, it was pure bliss and peace for my 9 year old self.

I should have known this was going to be a heavier novel by the synopsis, but I was still surprised by how much it hit me. The complexity of emotions Kate experiences throughout the book is so well written. I loved the depth and intention put into it. I consider this a novel about a woman who experiences a great loss and learns to become whole again. Really well done by the author (and the acknowledgements make it all the more poignant).

I binge watched this show last week & loved it. This is one of the rare instances where I prefer the show to the book. But the book was still enjoyable & I liked the ending. 9 strangers go to a health resort called Tranquillum House. The eccentric owner has some very interesting ideas about therapy & hallucinogenic drugs. It‘s a good character study but perhaps a bit too long. 4⭐️
