Welcome to Litsy!

This was languishing on my Kindle…actually a pleasant little romance! Part of the Westcott Bay series. Two former HS sweethearts meet at a mutual friend‘s holiday gathering at San Juan Island-will sparks ensue?

“There is a bright full moon, and boats in the harbor are lit up and dancing in the inky water.”

With seven older brothers and a love of adventure, May Amelia Jackson just can't seem to abide her family's insistence that she behave like a Proper Young Lady. Set in Washington in 1899 - HF MG by one of my favorite Newbery authors.

I loved this book. Salem's sister supposedly committed suicide at her college but Salem doesn't believe so she enrolls to investigate. There she meets Cass, a man with his own dark past and someone she can't stay away from 💙

This was an entertaining read. Plenty of possible suspects, including several members of the local “Whodunnit Book Club”. The likable main character is on her first case as an assistant Private Investigator. As a “Christian cozy”, faith and prayers are woven throughout the narrative, and the sweet budding romance is very “clean”.

This was my August selection for the #ThematicCozies prompt, #Books .

OK, Road Trip does have one redeeming feature, which is that the title is Damson colour, completing my New York autumn/winter #Pantone2025 #readingchallenge !

I attempted to read this before, but I just couldn't bring myself to care about the characters.

This time, I decided to get the audiobook, which made it a little easier to listen to and complete the story. However, I'm not a fan.
The narrative felt redundant since we already knew Snow was an evil tyrant. The details of how it happened didn't interest me, and I believe that contributes to my dislike.
The story wasn't bad, it just wasn't needed.

“Sometimes it's not the people that change. It's the mask that falls off.”

Dark psychological thriller with several POVs and timelines that threw me around a bit and became confusing. But good twists and voices to for audioscrapbooking.

“I was trying to get him to understand that it‘s not just trying or wanting to change. I believe you have to make a choice, you have to decide.”

Arshay‘s story and that of his teammates is a winner. They persevered and looked beyond their scary and dangerous streets to become a cohesive rowing team, who became confident enough to plan a future. Inspiring❤️‍🔥

Despite his siblings' doubts, Ben is determined to build the barn Father had planned (before his tragic accident), in the hope of waking him from his weak and frozen state. Solid writing for this historical tale set in 1855 in the rugged Oregon Territory.
