Welcome to Litsy!

My #DoubleSpin for June. I looked through my shelves multiple times, thinking I had the paperback, only to discover that, no silly me, I have the ebook! Despite the darker subject (the MC is dying of cancer & reflecting on his life) while I'm going through some very stressful stuff, I decided to start reading it. I really tried, but OH did I really dislike this guy & how he treated people, particularly women (especially his wife). #HailTheBail

I asked my mother for one of her favorite books that wasn't a "classic." She gave me The Death of a Beekeeper. I started it today and while it isn't uplifting or what one would call "enjoyable," it is incredible for its depth and how well it is written. I am half through and will probably finish it. I want to savor it though too.
