Welcome to Litsy!

I listen to a lot of book podcasts in the car and when I hear something I think I‘d like to read, I ask Siri to add the title to a reminders list so that I can add it to Goodreads later. She often gets it wrong but close enough that I can guess the title. But not this time... the reminder I have is:

Launch add water

I have no idea what book it is. Any guesses what this title could be?!

Hey all! Does anyone recognize this book? What is the title please?

Fellow Littens,
This book exists somewhere... and I must find it! 😂
The first sentence has me hooked, and I must say, it is just fabulous w/o any context whatsoever. If anyone knows where this literal hidden gem 💎 of a book is, point me in the right direction. Please and thank you.

you are all my most favorite people in this universe by the way, even if it is widely regarded as a bad move, at least we have each other, Litzy, and books!
📚☺️👍

I have a gift card to spend and I would love some book recs. Looking especially for the following:
--intricate mysteries/outside the box styles of writing
--books on social justice
--fun memoirs
--LGBT romance

When you really, inexplicably care what the guy on the next bench is reading, but he keeps contorting himself into bizarre angles in a seemingly intentional attempt to keep you from seeing the cover. #publicreadingproblems
