Welcome to Litsy!

I bucket this into my favorite type of book "Women going a bit mad because of life" but Jane ..oh, Jane is really not doing anything to help herself here. I thought Senna did a great job of ramping up the uncomfortableness as we go along, the worse Jane did the more panicked I felt for her family. The writing is well done and tight I think it would be great for open minded bookclubs who can handle uncomfortable race conversations

I know so much about the transcendentalists time & its men from reading & teaching, but not enough about Margaret Fuller, who is neglected in history.This is fiction, But I will see if I can find a biography as well to eventually read as well. Anyone know of one?

I have a small procedure on Thursday and am taking through the weekend off so going to read a ton! I am finishing In every Mirror today, I am half into Challenger so hoping to finish that mid-week
I started Beautyland yesterday and it isn't hitting as much as I had hoped but going to finish it anyways, hoping I connect with it more as it goes along.

Nope… not for me. My April #ReadOrDonate book is going straight to the donate pile.

I have no idea where or when I acquired this book, so I think that makes it a perfect #ReadOrDonate candidate! What will everyone else be reading?

Well, March whizzed by!
🌸 Did you read this month's #buddyread
🌸 Did you like the author's style?
🌸 Were there any particular women that stood out for you?
🌸 Did it give you more of an insight into VW?

The premise seemed interesting, and the book definitely wasn‘t. There was not enough difference in characters‘ voices, their personalities kept shifting, they behaved like middle schoolers, and wrote like middle schoolers. Lots of telling, not nearly enough showing of anything. Unconvincing romance. Cringey sex scenes. I felt the author was writing what she thinks a romance reader would like, so the story is all over the place. Mature content.

Truth.
