Welcome to Litsy!

And finally December #12BooksOf2025 The latest #12 in the Fjällbacka series. My fave! The last 50ish pages were fantastic! Lovely series, some lagging in parts of the books (we get it - it‘s tough to be a mother), but otherwise mucho enjoyable. This book ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

October 2025 Book#5

I like this retelling of Beauty and the Beast but love it. But I like to read retellings from my favorite fairytale. 3⭐️

Septiembre 2025 Book #6

I wish I could have that cover, my copy is the ugly tv show edition😝I expected more due to the hipped but still it was creepy. It gives that nervousness if they are going to make it to go back. I want to continue the series but not in that ugly tv edition. I haven‘t see the tv show, have you? Sometimes tv shows or movies mix more that one book, that‘s why I will like to read book 2 first. 3.8

August 2025 Book #12

Beautiful cover but this novel didn‘t work for me. I found it so boring. Even with a good premise and interesting character, well at the beginning I struggled to finish it. I have found that when you have more than one author in a novel there is a disconnection if that is the correct word. I didn‘t see like an integration in the story. It was like reading chunks of different stories. It didn‘t feel like the same tone⬇️

August 2025 Book #10 love that cover. I found an old secondhand copy not in the best condition but it is hardcover with the original cover 😍

I liked this story but didn‘t love it. I need to confess that not always speculative novels work for me🤷🏽‍♀️I was expecting something else. I didn‘t feel connected with the story because it didn‘t make sense to me why all these voodoo situation which means that I did f love the ending. 3.5/3.7⭐️

#12 of 2025 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

June 2025 Book #3

I keep reading this author thrillers because they are entertaining but I don‘t love them. Usually the premise is good with various good twists but nothing that impact me. With that said, I liked it but not loved it. I probably read her next novel🤷🏽‍♀️3/3.5⭐️

So excited for my #auldlangspine list from @Singout ! I haven't read ANY of them, although I have read the tagged author before & loved it (Braiding Sweetgrass), so I'll probably start there.

Top right shows books I already owned (and/or purchased recently), & bottom right shows books I'm interested in.

Books #2, #5, #6 & #12 aren't appealing to me at mo, but might later in the year! 🤣

Thanks @monalyisha for another 👍 match!

This book is completely different from Out, that I loved. I was a bit disappointed by the story about a surrogate mother and all persons involved in the pregnancy and the circumstances surrounding it.
It‘s a story about women‘s choices in how to live their life, I can imagine it being a big theme in today‘s Japan. But to me it felt like a story I‘ve read before.
