Welcome to Litsy!

1. Tie between Jamaica Inn, very atmospheric Gothic romance/adventure/suspense by Grande Dame Daphne du Maurier
and
Spirits Abroad, short mythical/ghostly tales by Malaysian author Zen Cho. Blends contemporary & fantasy with a fresh viewpiont. So surprising, so good!
2. no clue. I'm really excited for the numbers of #Bookspin and #Doublespin to be revealed, as I have a few options for mood picks and Gothic reads on my list that I'm excited for!

Here's my #December #Bookspin /#Bookspinbingo list! ❄️

Since this was a library book, I only had it out a short time. But that was time enough to know that I wanted to buy my own copy and walk through 2023 with Patti Smith‘s daily photographs.

Last #12BooksOf2022 #December @Andrew65

I read 12 books in #December with this one as my only 5⭐️.

I loved this debut so much for its wit and charm, but the incandescent heroine trying to overcome discrimination stole the show. ❤️

Honorable mention: When the Moon Turns Blue

#12Booksof2022

My holiday reading wasn't the best last year but this was a bright spot. There's an interesting mystery, a creepy ex, a couple of charming MCs, danger galore, a second chance romance, and a satisfying ending. #12BooksOf2022 #December @Andrew65

#December #12Booksof2022

I read a lot of Christmas themed books during December bu the final part of the Beartown Trilogy is still the overall Pick as this will stay with me a long time.

Notable others
The Christmas Sisters - Sarah Morgan
Snowflakes and Secrets in the Scottish Highlands - Donna Ashcroft
