Welcome to Litsy!

My original book club kicked off with this one back in 2010, and my newer book club selected it for this April. It‘s been 14 years since I read this, & I still found it to be an emotionally captivating story. I listened to the truly excellent audio performances this time around & I found myself listening at every chance, even though I remembered the story quite well. Reception to this one has since shifted so I‘m looking forward to discussing it!

Absolutely wonderful

So good! Very hard to read at times, but so so good.

Book 1 - Done ✅

Finally got my list together, in no particular order, for the #readyourkindle #readyourebooks challenge. In sitting down to do this I realized two things. 1.) I have an awful lot of absolute sh!t on my Kindle. Wtf was I thinking when I bought aka freebie downloaded half of what's on there?! 😬 2.) I have a lot of really good sounding books on there so why haven't I read them yet?! 🤭 Super excited for this challenge, @CBee! 😏

Really good book. Enjoyed the different perspectives and had me laughing in some parts.

A bit late in finishing for last months #tbrtarot. Absolutely brilliant on audio, all of the narrators did an amazing job. I can see why this is a bestseller as it‘s just really good storytelling in terms of plot and characters! It did drag on a tiny bit for me, I felt like it could have been shorter. Loved Celia! Lots of funny and touching moments. Not a must-read sort of book but a really enjoyable one.

The audio production of this book was wonderful and probably the only reason why I finished this book and am considering it a light pick. Something about a white woman (who got sued for using a maid‘s likeness in the book) writing as Black women just felt off to me. This was very much a white centered story when it had true potential to not be.
Almost finished with my cross stitch gift for my grandma! #audiostitching #litsycrafters
