Welcome to Litsy!

Day 6 of #37by37

Read a bunch of monster books yesterday which seemed suitable for a 13th. Was surprised at how much I actually enjoyed most of the Amazon Original series from October.

My favorite book read yesterday was Unwrap My Heart. ⬇️

‘Warning: After you read this book you will believe in alien life.‘

A decent sequel to Strieber‘s memoir Communion. I will have to get the rest of the books as I didn‘t realize there were more in between.

Book 5/Communion

This was a posthumous publication of four previously unpublished novels, four short stories and an essay by Pym - a must for any Pym fanatic. The title novel is the longest and the probably best, but I loved all of this collection. I just love Pym‘s sedate and subtly humorous style. Each section has a short introduction by the editor and Pym‘s long time friend, Hazel Holt.

I adore anything Emily Austin writes. These poems were excellent.

Loved Holy Runaways. Recommended for those who have left broader evangelicalism. Or if you know someone who has left and would like to gain some perspective. Very relatable even if you are not interested in pursuing a less horrible community of faith.

A very soft pick. It was a bit of a meandering hodgepodge. Taciturn, middle aged, and slightly witchy charwoman, Ivy Gover, inherits her uncle cottage outside the village of Nethersham in 1930 or so. There are a few village romances, a poignant foster son situation, a mean girl, class consciousness and class clashes. And then there‘s an epilogue 40 years later. It felt a little unfinished.
