Welcome to Litsy!

This was the perfect little book-nerdy graphic novel to finish off my #readathon. I ended up with almost 12 hours of reading/audio time and 712 pages. Next time, I hope to sleep less! #ReverseReadathon #DeweysReadathon

Only 5 hours of reading for me in this #DeweysReadathon #reversereadathon.

I did only find out about it a two days ago and already has plans with friends and needed to sleep rather than stay up, but I was able to finish one book and will be finished with another in about half an hour. So I‘ll still call that a success!

It was a good #Pokemon day too! 😉

After finishing All the Pretty Horses, I just couldn‘t jump back into my current audio so I went looking for something else in my available listens. This story of a group of men who attempted to walk across the border from Mexico to the U.S. in 2001 seemed a perfect complement to the story I had just finished. It is a harrowing story of persistence, death, and the situation at the border in the early 2000s.

Finished my first book for the Deweys #reversereadathon (started before).

Loved it!😍 Any book that makes me both laugh and cry deserves all the stars. Ove definitely won me over with his (hidden) big heart ❤️

My reading spot right now for the #reversereadathon. Just about to start this one, a bit hesitant going into it, I must confess. But perfect day for reading out in the sun, that‘s always nice 🤩

Finished my second book for Dewey's Reverse Readathon. This was a great mystery. I liked the character and the atmosphere of the setting. The mystery was good - I did not guess the culprit until I was supposed to, yet after the reveal I can see the clues were there. Will definitely put the next one in the series on my TBR. #reversereadathon #deweysreadathon

I love listening to these audiobooks. The narrator does a great job with the different voices. I slept longer than I intended to, but am ready to devote the day to the printed (or recorded) word!

It took me a while to adjust to McCarthy‘s writing style, and for that reason I‘m glad to have been able to immerse myself instead of reading a few pages at a time. This story has a truly stark and western feel to me. The description of the setting and the travel through it is really what made the book for me. As for the plot, it seemed a quest with no real destination.

It‘s taken me a bit to get used to the punctuation (or lack thereof) and style of this book, but I‘m enjoying it now. It absolutely conveys a feeling of the setting. Also, late night reading calls for ice cream.

I‘m about 1/3 into this and really enjoying it. Hope to get a few more reading hours in before snoozing. #ReverseReadathon #DeweysReadathon #readathon #ToB
