Welcome to Litsy!

A change of genre.
Let‘s see how this 1950s political novel is. I love the cover! My copy is very much an original with very brittle pages /binding.

I don‘t watch tv during the day but I had to turn on C-SPAN to watch Senator Cory Booker during his marathon resistance to what is happening. ✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿

This novel had lots of twists and many turns. I had a little trouble figuring out the plots and where the characters fit in for the first couple of chapters. The layers were waiting for the reader to catch up. Then things were starting to make sense. I was surprised by some of the layers and certainly didn‘t expect the ending. This was my first novel by Margolin and I will read more of his work. 4.25/5

Inspired by the idea that American Democracy is on the verge of ending. Definitely written from a specific point of view. It‘s an interesting look at a fictional behind the scenes look at political campaigns. The book was ok. I could put the book down. Which is often the best compliment for a book, “I couldn‘t put it down”. I could.

Loved seeing everyone's nominations for #camplitsy24 and here are mine. Focused on books in translation for my picks. Thanks again for hosting @BarbaraBB @Megabooks @squirrelbrain ! 📚🏕️

I‘ve have a completely nutty work week, so I am ready to be back in BOOK mode 📚
Just fininshed the one by Patterson, and it‘s a timely book about an out of control POTUS that has a vendetta against China and will do anything to put us in WW3.

An unusual novel about mental illness and family, violence and revenge, love and secrets. It had a usual structure, cutting back and forth in time and the narrator occasionally speaks directly to the reader. Lots to think about in this book.

Here‘s my review for a book I didn‘t finish. I had a feeling before I started reading this book that it wasn‘t going to be for me but I wanted to give it a fair chance. You never know if a book will be for you until you try reading it.

I also decided to start this book. I own a physical copy of this book that I won from a Goodreads giveaway but I‘m listening to it on audio. It‘s only 5 hours. I‘m feeling bored with this book but I‘ll stick with it for now.

Today, I‘m sharing this book with a red cover. I own a physical copy of it because it‘s a book I won from a Goodreads giveaway but I‘m going to listen to it on audio. I found the audiobook on Libby. I don‘t know if I‘m going to like it or not but the audiobook is only 5 hours. If I don‘t like this book, I‘ll DNF it and unhaul the book too.
