Welcome to Litsy!

6th book finished for #Read2025 and #JumpStart2025 @DieAReader @LizPixie

This was a very good read, and a good suspense book, and good use of Podcasts throughout. This meant it leant itself very well to the audiobook format, which was narrated well. Tension kept up to the end, and some good twists as the story progressed. Definitely strongly recommended.

So much love for this book during #12Booksof2024 that I had to find out for myself!

It‘s the quiet story of Zorrie, a woman living in Indiana in the 20th century. Her life is a bittersweet one but she makes the most of it in her own way.

I kept waiting for something to happen during the first half, then surrendered to the gorgeous writing style and rhythm during the second half. That turned out to be a good idea! A pick for sure.

The last of my #12BooksOf2024 wasn‘t a hard choice since I read the last 400 pages of this in literally one sitting!! I loved it!!

Thanks for organizing this fun end of year summary, @Andrew65 — looking forward to next year‘s collection!

Just started the first of the many books Littens nominated during #12Booksof2024.

Thanks to @BarkingMadRead & @TorieStorieS for nominating this.

Each month I am aiming to read 3 or 4 of the books that were nominated, and this is the first. Altogether I added 50 books to my TBR from #12Booksof2024 #Read12Booksof2024

I am reading this via audiobook, & looks like it lends itself to this format.

Day 10 - 12

Day 10: Deader Than A Wet Hen by Ella Duke
Day 11: Big Little Spies by Krista Davis
Day 12: Babylonia by Costanza Casati (also my favorite of the year)

Sorry I didn't keep up on days, but I was sick, and my brother was diagnosed with brain cancer in November. He had 3 tumors. They removed the 2 biggest ones and are doing radiation on the smallest.

Late to the party, but here are my monthly favorites. #12booksof2024

Other favorites that just missed the cut:
The Evening and the Morning by Ken Follett
Blood Lines by Angela Marsons
And several of the In Death Series by JD Robb

I enjoyed reading everyone‘s favorites and have added many to my TBR list.
Thanks @Andrew65
I hope to participate in real time next year! 😀

Even with only three options, my #12BooksOf2024 choice was still a tough one for November! But, as I listened to this one, it felt like it was written just for me! I immediately ordered a physical copy and I am already looking forward to re-reading it!

Only one more to go, @Andrew65 !

Well, this was yet another tough decision for which October read would be one of my #12BooksOf2024! But, I had to ultimately go with the scariest and the most tense (a very close runner-up was SOMEONE IN THE ATTIC which had me just checking on our own attic before taking my review picture!🤣) which was this listen. Not only did it scare me, but my gasping out loud while walking our dog passed along the scares to him! So this one even scared him!
