Welcome to Litsy!

Thankful for #ohcanada group for choosing this and enabling me to get it off my Death Tower where it sat for 10 years? A raw look at war, the horrors of trench warfare and an informative look at indigenous life in Canada in the early 1900‘s and their roles in the Great War.
My favourite part was Niska‘s story - she always had hope, Xavier and Elijah‘s story in the war was reflective of the awfulness of the killing fields

I am going to attack my To Do list but first Jane Goodall 💚💙🦍🦧🪾🐒 #ohcanada

Started today on my drive to school #ohcanada

The #OhCanada book club is going to head to Three Pines for the last read of 2025. Read any of the Louise Penny books depending where you are in the series or a book you maybe want to reread. There will likely be a few different books read so discussion question(s) will still be posted at the end but will be high level as to spoil any of the books.
All are welcome to join this low key bi-monthly read of Canadian authors.

All are welcome to join this low key bi-monthly read of Canadian authors. We will continue in 2026.

In September I caught up on ALL THE THINGS!!! Summer is my least favorite season. Everything happens then and it's not like I get the summer off from work. 😜 #bobwhitebuddies #beyondtheyellowbrickroad #kindredspiritsbuddyread #ohcanada #KLBR

Just a reminder that there is about a month left in the September/October #OhCanada read for those who are interested in this book.

Also wondering what the interest is in continuing in 2026. I've enjoyed hosting so I'm happy to keep it going if there is still interest. The bi-monthly cadence works well for me, does it work well for you? Also, if you are interested do you have any authors you would like to read? Types of books you enjoy?

Voting is open for the next #ohcanada buddy read.

⭐️⭐️⭐️💫

This is the story of two Cree soldiers who travel from Canada to fight in the trenches of WWI. I found the beginning very slow and didn‘t enjoy the stories told from Xavier‘s POV about the war until it got to the end but I did like Niska‘s stories about life in the bush and Xavier‘s childhood.

I think I just done like historical fiction much.

The book is good in the last third and I‘m glad I stuck with it.

A very hard-hitting and honest memoir, about the author's struggles with addiction and sexual abuse. Her resilience, leading to her recovery and ability to share her stories through her writing, is truly admirable.
