Welcome to Litsy!

Jay is an artist; lives his life as one (many?) experience-immersed art project/s. When Covid hits, he is in NYC just barely surviving when he delivers groceries to a wealthy enclave — he comes face 2 face with his lover Alice from 20+ years past who had run off with his best friend. I liked it mostly for amazing sentences but the drug use was extremely off-putting to me. Lots of interesting thoughts on “what IS art?” 🖼️ Low pick #Aug2025 #ToF

The vividness of these radishes provoked me to take this picture, continuing my habit of posing my books with gardens, plants, flowers, produce. This is my last book for #ToF and it is already capturing my attention; page 10. This will be my 3rd by this author. I expect it to be interesting, philosophical, culturally relevant.

I found this harrowing and so so sad. Also, I will say it touched my heart and I learned a lot; I am glad that I have read the Epic of Gilgamesh (tho it isn‘t necessary for understanding this story and the characters.)

Had to pull a pic from the archives; this glorious rushing stream is near Gunnison Colorado.

Up next and I am so excited and hopeful that I will love it that I‘m almost scared to begin 😱

#ToF #LibraryBook so I best get started.

Grand so.

“It‘s hope that makes us afraid, and I remind myself that a man should be grateful for his fears, ‘cause it means he has something to lose and to win.”

“Directors without a producer are like a ship without a sail, the medium of wind to endeavors nautical being equivalent to coin in all theatrical,…”

Some really great sentences in this! 🌟 #debut #drama #ToF

Next up! #ToF

Wow. WHAT is this?! Somebody here needs to read this and come sit next to me and let‘s talk. I have to think some more. Easy read, extremely-well written, fast-moving, full of heart, good vs evil or balancing act? 😈 🤠 💗 🖼️ 🍅 ⛰️

While catching up on the zombie rounds of our #ToF Tournament of Favorites (LaRose takes down Hamnet in the Battle of the Dead Children), a comment mentioning the tagged book incites me to get eBook from Libby. The books behind it are up next.
