Welcome to Litsy!

I lost my Dad the day before I turned 11 years old. This quote resonated with me deeply. It truly is a “go at your own pace” life experience. Those who have known grief understand.

Some days are just harder than others.

As a result of my #libbyapp loan of the #audiobook of #janetskesliencharles‘s #theparislibrary ending in a day or two, I‘ve picked up the audiobook of #hilarymantel‘s #bringupthebodies, the sequel to #wolfhall. I‘m enjoying it so far, although I‘ve picked up the speed to 1.25x.

My #libbyapp loan of the #audiobook of #janetskesliencharles‘s #theparislibrary is sadly ending in a day or two, and I‘m unable to renew it this time around for whatever reason. I placed another hold on it of about 6 weeks, so I‘m not sure if I‘ll be able to finish this book in November, but we‘ll see!

Happy November! This week‘s #currentlyreadingpile is 4 books: #europeansthemakingofmodernity by #robinwwinks, #chronicles by #froissart, #sixcrimsoncranes by #elizabethlim, and #theparislibrary by #janetskesliencharles. Stay tuned tomorrow for my #novembertbr pile!

Read my review of The Paris Library - A well-crafted World War II story that's bound to grow on you.

Odile has been volunteering at the American Library of Paris and has finally been employed by the directoress, Miss Reeder(an American citizen). I love ⬇️
