Welcome to Litsy!

Another soft pick, but this one is more on me than the book. I got this one as a free ebook a while back. It's a novella and even shorter than I anticipated because the last 30% or so of the book is actually recipes. Not much really happens in this story - some people come and stay at an inn. An old lady owns the inn and a younger woman helps her run it. The younger woman is sort of magical and floaty and literally, because I'm broken, I kept ⬇

Macomber is one of those authors whose books always sound like ones I would enjoy but somehow just don't hit the spot for me. This one was perfectly pleasant, but just a little too melodramatic somehow. It was very obvious what the Big Misunderstanding was going to be and I honestly felt like Finn was kind of a jerk about the whole interview situation. Still, a fast read even if it was on the soft side of pick! Also I got this copy secondhand⬇️

I read several of Thayne's books last year and really enjoyed them, so I was excited to read her newest, which happens to be Christmasy!! This one was due back at the library so I had to read it before #WinterGames begin, but it was actually just the piece of relaxing fluff that I need. I would definitely recommend this one if you enjoy romances that don't make you think too much 😂 It was also clean, which I like, plus it took me to Wyoming ⬇️

After a month of thrillers and mysteries, I was in the mood for something fluffy. The latest book in the Well Met series had come in for me at the library, so it felt like the time was right!! While I did enjoy this one, I have to say it's a soft pick for me, mainly because April is sooo bitchy about everything and everyone. I felt frustrated with her because she kept going on about how excited she was to "finally" be an empty-nester and how ⬇️

Here's another updated challenge #ReadtheUSA2021 from the beginning of the year. Added Rules of Prey and Pieces of Her so these will also be added to my #Scarathlon2021 numbers for #TeamSlaughter.

I don't think I'll get this one finished. I'll have to try better next year.

Current read! This is a hefty one, so I'm going to try and get through what I can today while I'm off.

Good news: I finished another book. Bad news: Apparently I also accidentally started another series 🤣 This was a decent read. Margolin always keeps me engaged & for once I didn't have to get out a note card to keep track of all the characters. Despite enjoying this one, it somehow didn't hook me as hard as his writing usually does...but this didn't stop me from reserving the rest of the series at the library!

FINALLY got a #BookSpin BINGO!!!

This really was just the perfect bit of fluff to read between mysteries. Don't worry too much about the world-building or major character development, just go along for the ride. Snarky, sexy, and sassy, I overall enjoyed this one even if I don't see myself reading it again. I also could have done without all the casual f-bombs; I'm not a huge fan of being bombarded with vulgar language in my fluff reads.

I enjoyed this clean romance for the most part, but it was, frankly, a bit on the boring side. The ending also got rather melodramatic. But if you are just looking for something relaxing & sweet, this one should fit the bill. And it also knocked off Iowa for #ReadtheUSA2021 & #SeparatedbyaPondTour @Andrew65

This one wasn't especially on my radar, but it was August's pick for #thatsclassic and seeing as it is quite short, I thought it was a great time to add another beautiful Penguin paperback to my collection!!

This is definitely a book that had me wondering how I would have felt about it if I hadn't known the spoiler. The writing is super atmospheric & I loved it. Stevenson is one of those authors that every time I actually read one of his books⬇️
