Welcome to Litsy!

I throughly enjoyed this one. A great mix of suspense, drama, and romance! A fun find in my school‘s library!

OH MY GOODNESS. I have so many feels about this book! Like, part of me is so intrigued by a ton of the things (crime family, blood disorder the MC has, mafiaesque, the characters in general) but One Thing kind of killed it for me (hint: #romance). I still enjoyed it and finished in 2 sittings but it had some potential to be much better

I'll be posting a full review on my blog: www.crimson613.wordpress.com and Goodreads bc word count

I bought the first one last year, and it's just been sitting in my stacks, waiting to be read. I saw the second at the library yesterday, so I figured it was a good time and incentive to pick it up and tackle the first one, too. (And look at those covers! 😍) #tiffanyschmidt #onceuponacrimefamily

I usually don't read young adult books but decided to take a chance on this one. It was decent. Not the typical YA book. Loved the subject matter of organ transplant which is unique. The author did a good job of adding crime, mystery, suspense and romance all into one. I can't say I loved it or hated it but I know won't be reading the second one in the series.

Just finished this one and I must say that I was pleasantly surprised because this turned out to be a pretty good read!

I would love to curl up with my current read instead of reading a bit here and there. My friend that recommended it to me said it was a twist on the Princess & the Pea, and twist it is! Crime family that deals in human organs?! I have enjoyed all I have read so far! But it is now time for work. At least the book will be waiting for me after my shift!!

Starting a new book while waiting on my daughter to get out of dance. I'm so not a dance mom lol!!!

Well that was okay. The good: the thriller/suspense plot moved at an excellent, edge-of-your-seat kind of pace. The bad: Somehow, SOMEHOW, the author manages to include an insta!love subplot and only JUST shies away from a full-blown, sappy love triangle. Good story, but nothing stellar. ★★★☆☆.

CURRENTLY READING | Despite the melodramatic title, this is actually about a a girl who comes from a crime Family that deals in illegal organ trading? (And may or may not be a retelling of The Princess and the Pea?)

I frequently visit the local book store near my parents. For the month of May they have been doing this! The first line of this one is cut off : retelling of the Princess & the Pea!
The other surprise title today was Falling Kingdoms by Rhodes.

I had the privilege of working for 2 days at the scholastic book warehouse sale this week. They pay you for your time in books. You just have to set everything up like a book fair and help people find books. Easy peasy. This is my haul for 7 hours.😃
