Welcome to Litsy!

It‘s raining at the beach today, so I‘m balcony-reading. This was our book club‘s summer pick for the travel memoir genre.

This is pretty cute. I absolutely loved her other book. This one is also entirely enjoyable.

This is a low pick for me. I much prefer The Thursday Murder Club series and those wonderful characters. This was just forgettable to me but I will probably read book two. Maybe it will provide a stronger connection to the characters.

This series is so good. I am thoroughly hooked.

What a book! You have an estranged daughter, a dad losing his mind to Lewy body dementia, and if that's not enough, a cold case! Clark writes in a way that drags you into the book right beside her characters.

Honestly, I don‘t quite know how to feel about this book which is why I gave it 3 stars.

This book started off so slow. It took me a while to get into it. It just felt like the story was meandering and that made it boring.

By the second half it got more exciting and it low key got a little horny, which I typically don‘t mind but in this case it felt random.

I gave The Present Darkness a 5 star read, but the second and final book in this 2 book series was so much better. The salvation of Sally Roe made me cry. It took me a few chapters to really get into this one, but once I was into it, I didn't want to stop reading. I will definitely be reading more books by Frank E Peretti in the future. I highly recommend The Present Darkness and Piercing the Darkness to all readers, especially Christian.

This is a must read. It is so interesting.

I have no idea why it took me so long to read this book. I guess I have too many books I want to read. If you have been thinking about reading this book, start it today! I loved Vera Wong. She cracked me up. The things she said sounded so much like my grandma (though I'm not Chinese). I loved how the other characters came to love her and how they became a family. I was surprised by the culprit. I will definitely continue this series.

Up next on audio..my Libby hold *finally* came in!
