Welcome to Litsy!

I was more into the backcountry hiking trip and wilderness aspect than the romance, but still enjoyed it all.

Kate Quinn is an auto buy for me. But I had never heard of Jamie Chang before, so I was a little worried. They flowed really well together though. Great character development and wonderful story building. Not as good as Kate Quinn alone. But still 4 ⭐️.

I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it (some I‘ve had so long I don‘t even remember why!). Feel free to join in!

Good but not great. I can both see why this made the women's prize long list and why it didn't make the short list. Similar to Wifedom I thought there was too much of the author in this book. The time she is choosing to talk about is fascinating and it didn't need personal story embellishments. I feel like authors do this when they cannot find enough source material. The book itself is gorgeous, and I did learn a lot so it is still a pick!

1. I don't often go on picnics, but I'd take either hard-boiled eggs, deviled eggs, or an egg salad sandwich. Homemade iced tea to drink.

2. The tagged book 📖

"I cannot get enough Dutch art. You can turn to this other world - and it is a picture world as no other, a whole society visualized through time and place, seasons and generations, moment by moment - and live inside it in your thoughts."

The painting that starts the book.

"We see pictures in time and place. We cannot see them otherwise. They are fragments of our lives, moments of existence that may be as unremarkable as rain or as startling as a clap of thunder."

Elin Hilderbrand‘s books feel like going on a summer vacation! Well… this one in particular might feel like watching a reality show drama of a summer vacation. Grab your popcorn and a beachy drink and be carried away to Nantucket (without even leaving your own house)! 🎧
