Welcome to Litsy!

I‘m spending a very quiet night reading this book, book 1 of a series set in Venice, recommended by my father-in-law. I really like the author‘s writing style. I‘m hoping it will be the start of a love affair with a new series! #serieslove #foodandlit #ItalyJubilee @Catsandbooks @TheSpineView @Andrew65

A reminder that we are celebrating #Italy all year long with #foodandlit thanks to it being “Jubilee,“ a Holy Year celebrated by the Catholic Church, a year of hope and a time for reflection and forgiveness. Religious or not, every time you read about Italy or eat Italian food, we want you to celebrate it here! Post what you learn about Jubilee, Italy, the Roman Empire, etc! All other planned countries are still going forward.

That was...underwhelming. So little was actually revealed that I might even pick up the sequel in hope of getting some closure. The ending feels extremely open and after 400 pages I'd like something with more substance to it. On the bright side, there was a lot of Dutch history, food and culture depicted.

Have been eating Vla pudding all of last week since they come in 1l packs😂

Here‘s my next audiobook! #foodandlit #Netherlands @Catsandbooks

If it‘s Tuesday, it must be Hilo. Well, most weeks anyway. The usual airport breakfast & hanging in the lounge until boarding. I finally started this one for #FoodAndLit #Netherlands. It‘s been on my Kindle TBR for a while now, so this is a good excuse to get ‘er read. 🇳🇱

Jace & I read these for #foodandlit this month. Strega Nona is set in Italy for #Jubilee - and the others are all set in The Netherlands. Strega Nona was very cute, and I also really liked The Hero of Little Street, which has no words but is quite the adventure when a little boy gets sucked into a 17th century painting in Holland. 🇮🇹🇳🇱

Reading too many books at once so nothing gets finished quickly!

I'm enjoying The Idiot, but the ebook was taken back by the library so now I have to read the paperback, which'll take longer. I'm about halfway through HF for #RiseUpReads I finished TDoE for #Netherlands #FoodandLit. Ooft, what a book, what a surprise ending. I'm working through TSoAwM and forsee a Met Museum hunt in my future. Tagged book was for a global reading goal. #Bolivia

Isn't it nice when you read today's date in your book 😁It feels so fitting...
Also, Happy Birthday Eline!
