Welcome to Litsy!

As in American slang, where we have someone “on the side,“ directional phrases are big in the rest of the world as well. Swedes and Russians both “sneak to the left,“ Israelis “eat on the side“ (I'm told this is a particularly crude way of putting it), and Japanese “go off the path.“ The Irish “play offsides,“ a sporting term, while Englishmen “play away.“ For the Dutch, cheating is a jouney in which the culprit “goes strange,“ or, more...

Clever, tech‑driven YA mystery about a video that ruins reputations—even though it may be fake. High‑school rivalry, viral gossip, and shocking twists keep this page‑turner grounded in real‑world media weirdness. Compact, relevant, and suspenseful.

This one was my least favorite of the three, but that‘s like your third favorite ice cream flavor. It‘s still really good and well-written and entertaining, but there were some real extra-dramatic things from the past brought up and one fight due to Magnolia being a complete nimwit that I didn‘t love.

These UK covers might just be my favorite covers of all-time 🤩

This description of the “free-spirited hipster.” Lol, I love Magnolia! 😂🫶

I've loved so many of Jesse Q. Sutanto's mysteries-- Dial A For Aunties and Vera Wong's Unsolicited Advice for Murderers, anyone?--so I was dissapointed when this one didn't live up to my expectations. Perfectly find YA thriller; it just didn't have the same fun writing and incredible, lovable characters I've come to enjoy in many of her books.
