Welcome to Litsy!

I‘m giving this a marginal pick. About two piano players, a middle aged child prodigy and a young celebrity. I liked the exploration of their struggles and their deep love and connection for music. There were just some odd choices in plot and one of the main characters Prudence is 48, but reads in her 60‘s and the timelines don‘t always make sense. If you love music, I recommend though. 3.5⭐️

Catching up with reviews of books I‘ve read whilst we‘re on our hols.

Only 3 books though, despite the rain, as hubby bought me some crossword books for my birthday so they‘ve been distracting me!

I spotted this in a charity shop just after I‘d read Margo‘s Got Money Troubles and only just got round to reading it. I liked it a little more than Margo, I think - it felt a little more expansive and I liked the girls more than those in Margo.

New school year means new books for my class library…except for Finding Grace and Save Me (don‘t judge me; I am completely obsessed with Maxton Hall) #sorrynotsorry

⭐️⭐️⭐️💫/5
This one has been on my bookshelf for a while now so I decided to give it a go…BUT…this started out strong, fizzled a little and the ending was just ok. I had high hopes for this book because the story itself seems so interesting and fun but it just felt draggy…idk maybe it was just me🤷🏼‍♀️

He has slept through most of his thirties, and now here is this person who seems to have come from another realm specifically to energize him, to destroy any feelings of spiritual, psychic, or sexual lethargy. He feels reborn in this dangerously new passion-first and passion-only life.

Would anyone be interested in joining me for a #LMPBC of our own? It‘s not done through Litsy anymore, but I‘d love to do it on our own if a couple of people are interested. I took this picture recently to celebrate the fact that I finally had all of Abbi Waxman‘s books, and might use The Garden of Small Beginnings as my starting book if we decide to make this happen. Of course, I have a lot of others to choose from though. @LitsyEvents

#HaikuADay #HaikuHive

So I thought this week would be easier but work is still kicking my butt & I‘m three days behind in haikus. This one for Tuesday is inspired by the picture I took waiting for takeoff to Hilo last week.

Awaiting Flight

View from a runway
Stillness before the ascent
Sky awaits its wings 🛫☁️✈️

Made it to page 39 and had to stop. Boring, not my type of genre I like.
