Welcome to Litsy!

I‘m on the fence between a pick and so-so. I‘ve read enough of Jacobs to know what to expect. This was entertaining enough, though maybe not his best. But not bad either.

Working on these books this week when I can, depending on work & my mood.

#Irishroots #IrishAmerican #ancestry

The author, a professor of English with a specialty in Irish American studies, & a traditional Irish storyteller or “seanchai”, has written about Ireland, its history, its people, its myths & its ancient traditions. This is a complement to Thomas Cahill‘s earlier book. Each section ends with an annotated bibliography, which I found invaluable.

I found this great book at Dollar Tree. Always stay on the lookout. You never know what you will find. 😊

Adorable!! I want a cat who plays in ink to change rules. #AuthorAMonth @Soubhiville

I switched it up for #AuthorAMonth and read Amy‘s children‘s titles. She reads the #audiobooks herself and is a fantastic narrator! I much preferred the tagged book about the cat. The story is fun, simple, and memorable. The main reason I didn‘t enjoy The Moon Lady (tagged ⬇️) was the music in the background all throughout the reading. I found the music loud enough to compete with Amy‘s voice and to be distracting. The story is good, though!

This is so freaking cute. I love Amy Tan.

#AuthorAMonth with @Soubhiville

This was an adorable children‘s book by Amy Tan, one I had never read before, but while my other book was on hold I decided to check it out and listen to it today on my drive. I loved this tiny tale about a spunky mischievous kitten, who after an accident is terrified of the consequence, but the unexpected happens and lessons are learned by all. It was also read by Amy Tan and delightful on audio. What a great way to start a new #AuthorAMonth

What a cute children‘s story about a mischievous little kitten that helps to change the selfish and greedy ways of the local magistrate purely by accident. #AuthorAMonth #BookspinBingo
