Welcome to Litsy!

Shenanigan Swift has always been known for mischief. A family reunion turns into a murder mystery and Shenanigan is ready to solve the case. With the help of her sisters, Shenanigan looks for suspects and finds out about hidden family treasure along the way. I was expecting a great mystery with some laugh out loud moments. I felt it was quite slow and lacked excitement and pace which was disappointing for a middle grade book.

It was a bright, well dressed morning in early May, and the Swifts were in the middle of a funeral.

Starting this today. Just picked it up from the library.

The cover caught my attention and then I read the blurb about how each family member is given a name from the Family Dictionary. I knew I had to read this book

All the Swifts are meeting up at the Family House for the big Reunion which is a pretense to look for the hidden treasure. Then the Matriarch is pushed down some stairs and things escalate from there. Our heroine Shenanigan and her sisters have more than enough to figure out

Book #2 of 2024: “Choke” by Chuck Palahniuk

This is the first book I‘ve read by Palahnuik and boy was it intense. Sex addiction, mental illness, scams, and a look at the prisons we put ourselves in. I liked it and can tell it‘ll be the kind of book I‘ll have to sit with for a while.

Kids mystery about a family full of quirky characters, a reunion, a treasure, and some murders.

One of my favorite quotes.

La ficción tiene que ser, parecer creíble mientras que la realidad no. A la realidad no se le exige que sea creíble... Noticias increíbles si se pusieran en novela. La novela sería rechazada. No aceptamos en la ficción cosas que ocurren en la realidad. Que paradoja!
