Litsy

Good morning, everyone! The moment you have all been waiting for!! Our official #BookSpin number is THREE! Our official #DoubleSpin number is FIVE!! I have thoroughly enjoyed looking at everyone‘s lists & am really looking forward to seeing your reviews!!

My next post will be the #BookSpinBingo card. I am NOT tagging anyone on that post!! If you want to bingo, please just check my profile for the card. This saves me having to double tag ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont‘d) everyone/keep track of who wants to bingo and who doesn‘t!!

I use the same tag list for the entire year, so if you would like to be added or removed, please just let me know. It takes me a while to tag everyone (there are a lot of you!!!) but if I end up missing you, it was completely inadvertent. Sometimes I just spell someone‘s username wrong. ⬇

The King of Torts | John Grisham

pick

This is full of shady high-power lawyers, pharmaceutical companies, and stock investors making as many millions as possible while a bad drug is exposed, regardless of the impact a drug has to a patient. I wanted to be done - gratuitous spending and money-grabbing is all kinds of ick. Yet, I was surprising intrigued by Washington DC public defender Clay pulled into that world and finding his way out.

#DoubleSpin Cat: Author‘s canon

TheAromaofBooks

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 11mo

marleed @TheAromaofBooks It cracks me up how often ‘author‘s canon‘ is picked as either my #BS or #DS. I believe I have 6 more JG books to go from his backlog as well as keeping up with newly published books before I will have read or reread his entire canon since my 2018 starting point. 11mo

TheAromaofBooks The BookSpin fates REALLY want you to read more John Grisham 😂 11mo

See All 6 Comments

marleed @TheAromaofBooks Indeed! It all started when all my sisters gathered and Sister2‘s home for a reunion of sorts. Sister2 had a stack of JG paperbacks in her donation bin. I noted I liked JG books. Sister1 asked which ones, and I drew a complete blank on the title or specific story of any JG read. I silently decided then/there to read/reread his canon. Sister1 has sadly passed away, but I‘m sticking to my JG goal! 11mo

marleed @DrSabrinaMoldenReads Each participant builds there own list of 20 (specific books, categories, combo of both…) On the 2nd day of each month @TheAromaOfBooks draws/posts 2numbers -the #BookSpin and the #Doublespin.

It‘s fun- join us! 12mo

The Sentence | Louise Erdrich

(I love this Italian cover. It's so thoroughly wrong.)

Is Litsy turning me into a person who can understand literary fiction? Or has literary fiction just changed for the better? This is complex yet also so readable. Tookie is one of those unforgettably real narrators, and the old and new traumas she processes as she struggles through 2020 are infinitely resonant.

Ruthiella I wonder if your perception of lit fic is maybe too narrow. At least to me, it doesn‘t mean difficult, lyrical, experimental, etc. It‘s any book that doesn‘t otherwise fit into a specific genre. 2y

Tamra One of my favorite audio books! 2y

willaful @Ruthiella That could certainly be. You don't draw a distinction between literary fiction and general novels? 2y

Ruthiella @willaful Not if the only distinction is “lyrical writing” or whatever. 😂 I personally don‘t particularly like either Jodi Picoult or Johnathan Franzen but in my book, they are both literary fiction. (edited) 2y

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 2y

Spin of Fate | A. A. Vora

Good morning, everyone! The moment you have all been waiting for!! Our official #BookSpin number is SEVENTEEN! Our official #DoubleSpin number is SIX!! I have thoroughly enjoyed looking at everyone‘s lists & am really looking forward to seeing your reviews!!

My next post will be the #BookSpinBingo card. I am NOT tagging anyone on that post!! If you want to bingo, please just check my profile for the card. This saves me having to double tag ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont‘d) everyone/keep track of who wants to bingo and who doesn‘t!!

I use the same tag list for the entire year, so if you would like to be added or removed, please just let me know. It takes me a while to tag everyone (there are over 200 of you!!!) so I will add “FINISHED” to the last tag batch so you know whether or not I missed you. If I did, it was completely inadvertent. Sometimes I just spell someone‘s username wrong. ⬇

The April Robin Murders | Ed McBain, Craig Rice

From Amor Towles and up, some options for my May #bookspin and #doublespin --- a #BOTM backlist pick (#ds), and a thrifted book (#bs), in this case relating to my current reading mood of 80s/90s private eye/neo-noir novels, Ed McBain is close enough. I'm 97% through Manhunt: The 12-Day Search For Abraham Lincoln's Killer, so naturally a novel about John Wilkes Booth family history would fit as follow up, right? I just started Amor Towles' latest.
