Welcome to Litsy!

Interesting mystery that tips it‘s hat and pays homage to the best mystery writers through history. It has an unique 4th wall format going on but it was a bit too cute and pretentious for me, it kept pulling me out of the story. Pretty bold for a debut though so I will definitely read more from him. Releases October 24th. #netgalley #ARC #BookspinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

Good. Interesting concept but somehow it got lost and so the story just seemed so out of order and rationality. I felt sorry for the main character at first then as the story went on I hated her as actions throughout the story just went from bad to worse. The ending was as if the story just didn't happen it just felt too good for the actions leading up to it. Thank you for the free copy #Netgalley.

I had high expectations for this book but it just didn‘t gel for me. Ava Carson & her young son are looking to start over but the world isn‘t kind to black women and the system set up to help is often cruel and crooked. Not an easy read 💔 #ARC #NetGalley

Hello fellow #NetGalley users! Do you, like me, have an embarrassingly large backlog? Do you need a way to represent accomplishing something for it to mean anything? Me too!

I‘m setting myself a little #Readathon challenge for October and November.

#NetFalley is for anybody else who needs to work on those ARCs. 🖤💜💛

In 1993, Jess's mother, Nora, enrolled on a charity hike to walk a stage of the Appalachian Trail in the US. Nora never returned from the hike & Jess & her father were left without answers as to what had happened, just that she had disappeared from camp. Thirty years later, Jess (now an investigative reporter) receives an email with a link to a headline saying that a body has been found just off the trail - has her mother has been found at last.

Will has a lot on her plate, what with her new cheese shop, a friend maybe murdered, an ex implicated, & her former mentor leaving her a treasure hunt to the recipe for his priceless blue cheese.

This was delightful! This story kept me guessing because all the suspects kept making themselves more suspicious. Delicious recipes I can‘t wait to try & a solid, clever ending. I do wish we could have got to know the side characters more. 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

This is really clever. Women caught in weird scenarios straight out of their favorite book genres.

Smog has destroyed most of the world‘s crops and food has become scarce. A young chef joins a mysterious mogul in his mountain eyrie in Italy, where seeds and crops are brought back to life and rich food is plentiful. She builds a relationship with the mogul‘s charismatic daughter, but what happens when she is asked to give more than expected.

This book really made me think, covering dystopian themes of scarcity and greed at the end of ⬇️

This was a really good read. Its told from many persepectives so you get a really wide picture of everyone's story. The plot is a slow, steady story without the need for a big ending. The ending though was so well done. I liked how every story was settled and especially Esme's final showdown with the developer. The characters all draw you in and i think I enjoyed Cora's story the most but loved how Niamh's story finished up. #Netgalley 4*
