Welcome to Litsy!

This was totally not what I expected. But the stories still got to me.
There was a lot about getting older and feminism.
My Evil Mother was especially amazing and The Wooden Box made me put me in the shoes of my grandma.

After walking around Prague all day I was excited to see the #bookspinbingo picks! I've lost track of the day being on vacation 😂 @TheAromaofBooks

1. Daffodils
2. A Town Called Solace
3. Sri Lanka!

Well, devoured the next one in the Rockton Series. There's a number of characters and connections to keep track of between Rockton, the Settlers (encampment 1 & 2), and the Hostiles.
I like how this plot brought up things for Casey & Eric both separately and as issues to work on together.
The backdrop of winter solstice is interesting - the darkest time of year from which point the sun starts regaining its strength.

I enjoyed this curiosity, found it wonderfully done, found the writing, which focuses so much on the sound, always interesting and terrific, with its own rhythm and life. And I say this even I didn't really get it. (I missed a lot, as I discovered afterwards reading online reviews) This maybe should have won the Booker (and I loved the winner, Prophet Song)

This was a great follow up to The Maid. The MC, Molly, blossoms as her self-confidence increases. Juan is away to visit family and Molly is on her own planning and delivering impeccable service at a special reception. The event is marred, when the guest of honor drops dead. Molly‘s attention to details reveals the guest‘s darkest secrets and a killer. It‘s a 4/5 ⭐️ pick for this celebration of family, friends and understanding our differences.

Loved this cold, gothic historical fiction novel set in Newfoundland. The novel tracres the war between siblings in a small coastal village. Great on audio. 4 🌟

I love the voice of Enid, a neurodivergent lesbian obsessed with true crime podcasts. She struggles with anxiety and phobias. She worries about her mother‘s mental health issues and checks in on her often. Enid has a huge heart and a wry sense of humour and she could really use some psychotherapy. A funny, touching novel. #LGBTQ #CanadianAuthor
