Welcome to Litsy!

Dear lord, this book.

Not only was it incredibly thought-provoking, witty, and well-written, it was a total takedown of the way our society is built around stereotypes and sexism.

Me to Alex throughout the whole book: PREACH. 🙌 YES GIRL. UR AMAZING. UR MY ANTI-HERO I LOVE YOU.

I loved this book.
I wanted to fricking cry at the end. T_T
Totally would recommend.

Hi everyone I'm Madison and this is my first post on Litsy so I'm trying to get the hang of things. I don't know how active I'll be on here but I figured I'd try something different but similar to bookstagram. If you're not following my bookstagram already it is @maddithereader but yeah, I'm hoping that things go well here 😊

Our reviewer had this to say about @bigblackcat97's new book, "I loved #TheFemaleoftheSpecies, but #GiventotheSea had so much more. It was fantastical, romantic and heartbreaking; it transported me to another world. McGinnis‘s excellent writing was in full-force, and I could not stop reading."
