Powerful. A story told of life through the eyes of 3 sisters and their Meemaw. It reminds us how much big tragedies influence all the days of our lives, even our hopes and dreams. Yet it is the small joys of day-to-day life and the love of others that keep us going and growing. Savannah‘s twin disappears while the family plays at the lake beach. Later, as adults, the girls search for clues and find some surprises.

If Harper Lee & Mitch Albom had a love child, the child would‘ve been Allen Levi. I was 223 in line for a Libby hold and suddenly I was offered a skip the line copy. (Skip the line copies have a much shorter lending time). I seized that opportunity and am glad that I did. This read landed in my hands at the perfect time. It gave me hope. It reminded me that things can be better.

Iris and I finished up our second book of the new year. While it wasn‘t ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ it was a good story that kept my interest. The story did feel rushed at the end to get all the family issues resolved.

I have a goal to read more physical books in 2026 to lessen screen time. Starting the year with The Griffin Sisters. (And trying to remember how to post on Litsy since it‘s been a bit! 🤭)

BookmarkTavern Good luck! 🍀 1w

When stars (or in this case, heavens) align and I‘m in the mood for a slow roll of a book, it can be a beautiful thing. Beauty was here. It warms my soul thinking of an 87 yo man taking up residence in a new town and discovering a unique way to positively impact one stranger at a time. I was settled in for those sweet actions to continue through the last page, but there‘s a fascinating twist in the last quarter.

Amiable I‘ve seen a lot of love for this book but haven‘t read it—good to see you enjoyed it ! 1w
LeeRHarry I loved this one, glad you did too. 😊 1w

marleed @Amiable I didn‘t notice it when it first came out either. Litsy made me do it👏👏 1w
marleed @LeeRHarry it‘s one of those books that I just settled into at exactly the right time. 1w
Amiable I see it‘s tagged in Goodreads as “Christian fiction.” Does it push a religious message? I hesitate to pick it up if it does. 1w
marleed @Amiable I‘m very cautious of that, as well. I didn‘t realize this was Cristian fiction but as you mention that, I realize the connection. I would say that it definitely speaks of a faith in a higher power, but not of organized religion or Cristian nationalism. 1w
Amiable @marleed That‘s fine — faith is a whole different conversation than Christianity. Especially that being practiced by today‘s “Christians.” 😖 1w
marleed @Amiable completely agree. I firmly believe in the separation of church and state (if I were a single issue voter, that would be it). Christian nationalism scares me more than anything right now - I don‘t want to be ruled by religious ideology. 1w

I kept seeing this one on Book Tok and I was influenced to want to read it so my Secret Santa got it for me. This is supposed to be a beautiful and touching story so why not start the new year off with this one. #1of2026
