Welcome to Litsy!

Four female cousins and their relatives endure the Year of Four Emperors.

Thrills and spills as the four cousins navigate personal and political turmoil during this tumultuous year. Absolutely unputdownable.

Kate Quinn is becoming one of my all-time favorite historical fiction novelists. This one is about 4 cousins who try to stay out of the men fighting for their chance to be the next Caesar. Although they do realize they have to fight in their own unique way to save those they love. #Italy #Jubilee #FoodandLit #letterq #AtoZLitsy @Texreader @Catsandbooks

I went with a pick for this book because the last third of it was so good - but if I had based it on the first two thirds it probably would have just been ok. It just felt like a bunch of women gossiping and not much happening even though so much was happening. The last third is full of action and I couldn't put the book down! The ending was fitting for all the characters. I'll definitely be reading the third book in this series.

Haven't done much reading the last few weeks....not really a slump but just felt like doing some puzzles and such with my free time instead. Looking forward to spending the evening getting back into this book with a grilled cheese and some orange juice.

Can't believe we've gone from snow and freezing rain to a random day at 20 Celsius!! Heading back down to colder temperatures tonight though ☹️. Staring this one for #authoramonth . I enjoyed the first book in this series so thought I'd give book 2 a read. Looking forward to journeying into Ancient Rome! @Soubhiville

Although this series is really well written and has lots of action and is intense and I like that about it it is also really gory and gross and a bit too much sexual stuff for me ! ( Still rated the first one a pick and this one Soso but just thought I‘d make that clear)
