Welcome to Litsy!

Meh. I thought this was going to be really good but I really didn‘t care for the writing. It was super sarcastic but it just didn‘t work for me. It was all over the place and I was just bored with it for the most part. I thought with a story line of spontaneous combustion it would have been really entertaining and fast paced, but I just couldn‘t get into this one. At least I had my reading buddy, Edgar, here to snuggle with on this rainy day!

Still a few chapters in with the book but was blown away with the movie. This film left me in awe, made me swoon and laugh, felt sorry for the lead character then hopeful. A must read/watch! Just see it now!!! #bookstoscreen 📖🎬

"When Katelyn Ogden blew up in third period pre-calc, the janitor probably figured he'd only have to scrub guts off one whiteboard this year."

This YA novel about a school stricken by a series of spontaneous human combustions is certainly vying for weirdest book I've read this year!

Finished my #bookspin #doublespin pick for the month of May. The idea behind the book was good (senior year scavenger hunt competition), but the writing wasn't great. However, this has been on my shelf for years and I'm so glad I finally read it. #MountTBR #bookspinbonanza

This also earned me my Squire status and a goat in the #medievalathon

Such a precious story, especially viewing the ending in context with the beginning of book #1. Messy, lovely, complete.

File this one under a good so-so book. It is not great, it is not bad, but it is good/ok. It has a great premise-teens spontaneously combusting and it has a snarky, jaded protagonist. Somewhere though I just stopped caring what happened. Rushed romance, blurry message, and maybe too much snark lost me after a bit. I sped through the last few pages to see why these teens combust (spoiler/answer in comments). It was good for the first half.

When high school seniors start spontaneously combusting in a New Jersey suburban town, the school year is halted and the seniors get a green light to do whatever they want while everyone, including the government, tries to figure out what's going on. #ChampagneSupernova #90sInJuly

#funfridayphoto Jealous of all those who were closest to the Kindle. This one is fun so far, but it wouldn't sustain me long 👽👾 @Liberty
