Welcome to Litsy!

A murder she wrote / Angela Lansbury mention! Consider me charmed!

+ I enjoyed reading the family scenes
+ Description of Venice was fabulous
+ I liked Commissario Brunetti and his interactions with the other characters (his children, suspects, his boss)

- I vehemently disliked the public prejudice of lgbtq. It implies a mother, identified as lesbian, could lose custody of her children
- (TW) child abuse
- Translation at times was confusing.

Books, you know, Charles, are like lobster shells: we surround ourselves with them and then grow out of them and leave them behind as evidences of our earlier stages of development.

The search for the killer of Jenny, the resident ghost murdered 10 years ago, takes Jackaby and Abby to new and scary depths. In undertaking the task, they learn that something evil has been collecting the best scientists of their time (late 1800s) to build the future—without humans. Ending in a cliffhanger, be prepared to read the last book in the series as soon as this one‘s finished. #serieslove @TheSpineView @Andrew65 #litsyatoz #letterG

I‘m really enjoying this book, first in a series set in Venice, recommended by my father-in-law. Reading it tonight for #hyggehourReadathon @AllDebooks @Chrissyreadit @TheBookHippie

I‘ve been reading various other things this week, so I‘m back on Sunday again. Watching football and eating potato skins. #hyggehourreadathon

My pick for February #thematiccozies! It sounds fun!

My February picks for #ThematicCozies are going to be the tagged book & my ebook ARC copy of She Doesn‘t Have a Clue (linked in comments). Set around a dating service & a destination wedding respectively, I think they meet the #Romance tag. 💕💐🍾🥂💕

“He rooted around in the top drawer of his desk and found half a package of bussolai, the salty Venetian pretzels he loved so much.”

I love it when my #foodandlit read mentions food. So I looked up buying bussolai pretzels on Amazon. Nope. 😕

Starting this one; third in a series about sex therapist Dr. Morgan Snow and the Butterfield Institute. The last two had potential; looking forward to seeing if this is the one where the author realizes that potential.
