Welcome to Litsy!

I was driving in the countryside yesterday, listening to Wicked and came across a tin man mailbox!!
What a #coinkydink !
I‘m re-listening to this since the movie is coming out soon.
I read the book years ago and really did not enjoy it. It‘s still not my favorite book, but I‘m enjoying it a little better this time.
I have never seen the musical, which must have its own life, with such great music. It will be fun to see the movie adaptation.

I could quote something on every page. This book is my jam! Let me set the connection, the coinky-dink: I‘ve just started A View of the Harbour by Elizabeth Taylor and a character is 20 yo, right after WWII, sitting in an upstairs room looking out the window at the town streets and then this book has this quote:
“Young Christine… Climbs up to the attic room where she has done so much reading and looks out the window.”

Happy 💕 Valentines 💝 Day❣️
“His diseased mind had twisted our words, revised the history of our love. How dare he! My voice quavered with fury as I said, “Did you?”

I really enjoyed this slippery wild tale of grief and inventive experience of dealing with trauma.

On a road trip, trying to read and listen. Strikes me that this book shares some #coinkydink with Benny losing his dad then having a super imagination and with The Kid in Hell of a Book. Similar themes, maybe? Not sure yet. Could just be overlap. #tob2022
I think this might be the longest in length of the shortlist.

“…she birthed half-avian chicks” #birdbaby LINK! To Chouette

I just finished Becoming Mrs Lewis and plan to read
The Chronicles of Narnia in preparation to reading
Once Upon A Wardrobe.
While reading THIS book, I found a phrase that reminds me of Narnia, Susan,& Lucy!
Fun how line brings fun connections!

While finishing up The Children of the New Forest for #ChildrensClassicRead2021 I decided to continue my reading of books about #Doors
 @Mommamanzi told me about her childhood favorite book The Door in the Wall
What a #coinkydink they are both set during the English Civil Wars! 📚 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🚪

OMG 6 pages in and a reference to Hamlet! (I just finished Hamnet yesterday!!) Book Coinky-Dink

I loved We Ride Upon Sticks - perfect book to distract from current events. Lots of laughs for me, my favorite kind of humor. I got it. And my only issue besides the narrator not quite my favorite (not bad, just take a drink more, girl) was too long, lots of characters and we hit every social issue there is, it seemed. #KitchenSink. THEN #coinkydink !! Poem in my current collection hits the exact mark. ❤️#SalemWitchTrials #tourism
