Welcome to Litsy!

This book was completely ridiculous and a fun read between some more serious ones. The characters are an eclectic group that all work for a tabloid magazine company and share story ideas constantly. I‘m not sure why it‘s on the #1001books list, but I enjoyed it as very different from many of the books I‘ve read.

I‘m taking a break between some school work and some garden work to start this book in the hammock. Based on the reviews I‘ve seen, this sounds like it might be a lighter read and a good change of pace right now.

Found this on openlibrary.org, not thrilled about reading “online.” Here goes nothing! #Reading1001 #1001books

Set in NYC's tabloid industry, it starts slow with the eccentric employees of a disreputable paper. But then a caper-plot creeps in--a model needs saving from a mob boss. Which leads to a battle between gangsters and newspaper staff, a voodoo priestess, crazy cab rides, kidnapping, and an assault on a gated mansion. I loved the way the characters framed events with potential tabloid headlines. It may not be great literature, but it was great fun.
