Welcome to Litsy!

There's no copyright on plots, but nicking a good one can still have consequences... Jacob Finch Bonner is about to be massively inconvenienced.

This is a slow paced thriller that didn't quite manage to build enough claustrophobic dread and tension to make it worth my while.

Also the premise relies on "The Plot" being truly original and mind blowing, and it just... wasn't all that.

Not a bad read, but... unsatisfying.

Well. I wanted to read this after listening to Books Unbound, my favourite podcast. But it's only available in Canada. I'd asked a Canadian friend to purchase it but she wasn't able to get a second hand copy. Brilliant husband got it for my Christmas present 📦. Thrilled!
Odd story but so readable. I loved the gentle humour throughout and the way it's a novel about writing and effort and rewriting.

Thank you so much @Meshell1313 for this book & chocolate! I love this author & am excited to read this #historicalfiction about Margaret Fuller, the heady times she lived in, & the transcendentalists she interacted with. I plan to start tonight right after our traditional lasagna dinner. I imagine you crafted the card? It‘s now an ornament on my tree! #jolabokaflodswap
Thank you so much for organizing this @MaleficentBookDragon !

The premise of this #audiobook caught my attention, bringing it onto my radar. However, the story itself bordered on boring for me. I did enjoy the twist and found myself more engaged in the later portion, but overall this was just a bit meh for me.

Fun diverting mystery. 3 🌟
