Welcome to Litsy!

I loved this one so much! Set in Georgia in the 1960‘s, Doris is a very religious teen who needs to have an abortion and turns to her favorite teacher for help. The duo embark on a weekend trip to Atlanta for the procedure, which gets delayed. While waiting, Doris meets a cast of characters who completely change her worldview and broaden her life choices.

Definitely a favorite read this year!

This was such an interesting read. I liked how it led you down one path with what might be the reasons only to turn it near the end. I actually found that clever. I especially enjoyed how it was all explained. The plot jumps timelines a bit and follows Maisie and a detective throughout the story. It never gets confusing and it really allows the story to develop. The plot is fascinating and i was easily hooked. #Netgalley 4*

On Wednesday afternoon, wealthy businesswoman Ilaria Cavendish checks into a luxury London hotel as usual. Shortly afterwards, her lover discovers her dead & submerged in a bath of scalding hot water. Accident or murder? The CCTV shows that no-one went in the room or came out during the time she was killed, so if she was murdered how did they do it?

DS Maeve Kerrigan is working on the case which is being run by DI Josh Derwent. (continued)

In true Kevin Wilson style, this book deals with dysfunctional families. A group of strangers who discover they share the same father set out on a road trip to find their dad.

Although this isn't my favorite by him, it was still a good read. At times, scenarios felt too easily resolved, but I enjoyed seeing the relationships between the characters grow as the story progressed.

As a young boy, Christian dreamed of being a fashion writer for Vogue and living in NYC. This is the story of how his dream came true. It was kind and hopeful and I loved it. Thanks #netgalley for a copy of this audiobook - it felt like a friend telling you a story.

I just did my best impression of a tea kettle just now. I was so sure I wasn‘t going to get this, but I did! #NetGalley #ARC

This was so wonderful to see after the day I‘ve had.

I loved the premise of this book and it started out like a very promising read. I loved how the author used a lot of stereotypes to portray racism and privilege. It started going down for me at around 60%, I just felt like it started to become predictable and the ending felt very flat. I wished the author had taken a few more risks with this one.

Okay I liked this one, but I thought the dark library was actually dark and scary 🫣. I guess it is kind of 🤔 but not in the way I thought. 😂 Anyway…it‘s a 4 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ to me. I recommend to anyone who likes mysteries, and stories with timeline around WWII. There is hardly no language, if any, and no sexual content. (Just in case some would like to know) It kept me interested from start to finish. 🙂📚
