Welcome to Litsy!

I know this was a novella but I still think you can have more fleshed out characters even in a shorter story. I couldn't relate to these characters.

This was pretty creepy and atmospheric, but I am just not a big fan of cosmic horror. I didn't like the writing either, it just made my mind wander and I had to concentrate really hard on reading.

I know some really love this. This was a decent story but I just prefer other horror genres.

A collection of Vonnegut‘s short stories. Some were very enjoyable, some were mediocre. I actually laughed while listening to a few3.75/5

Scores from the book swap on the way to ballet during the school holidays.

I‘m not sure about this one. I tend to avoid short stories. I never like them. But maybe because they are connected I‘ll be okay. lol we are skipping White Sand. It‘s only short, but there‘s something about where it fits into the Cosmere. We will read it later. This reading order has worked so far, so I‘m going to trust it. #CosmereBuddyRead

@Allyneedsbooks and I got to visit the BEST little bookstore in upstate New York. It‘s a mix of new and used books with some antiques thrown in, all under the roof of the most precious old house turned perfect bookstore setting. Hardwood floors, porch to sit on, completely beautiful surroundings for book wandering. It was EVERYTHING!

Ray Bradbury mysteries for some weekend reading…

This is a collection of 4 stories and I thought it was great. The stories are creepy and the artwork was amazing. I recommend this book.

I enjoyed this much more than I expected because I typically don‘t go for short stories. But this was quite lovely. Obviously some stories were better than others but how everything was pulled together at the end really made it for me.

I didn't *adore* this one, but as I've observed before, with these short story collections from the British Library Crime Classics collections, they're often more than the sum of their parts. It makes for a fun survey of classic crime in the period, and there were a couple I liked quite a bit -- R. Austin Freeman's stories are always so detailed, for instance.

Aaand that was my #BookSpin!
