Welcome to Litsy!

Milly has a depressing temp job in a depressing office. The rest of het life is depressing too. She lives alone, with no friends or hobby‘s. So Milly has the right to whine. And whining she does. The comparison with Moshfegh‘s My Year of Rest and Relaxation comes up, but that one is much better. Although I did feel sorry for Milly, especially because she wrote such sincere job application emails and was treated unfairly.

And with my final book of 2020 finished today, I completed #booked2020 🎉
✅Makes you LOL- My Family & Other Animals
✅About Genocide- Ordinary Men
✅Animal on Cover- Owen Meany
✅#wineorwhine- The Liar
✅Gothic Horror- Dracula
✅Bottom of your TBR-Frog Music

For the first time, I read completely out of order this year. Seems fitting for 2020, when mood reading was a dire necessity. Here‘s my full run-down, since I‘m not entering the drawing (obvi). If you‘re posting a #Booked2020 #FallWrapUp, please just include completed prompts you haven‘t submitted before. You have until Jan 3, 2021 and we draw / announce by the 5th!

1. Millennial - The Bone Season
2. Hat on Cover - Women Talking

This book was interesting with glimpses into the world of wine that I loved but also moved really slowly in places and went off on tangents that I just didn‘t care about. If it wasn‘t for a challenge and I wasn‘t reading in audio, I likely wouldn‘t have finished it. #Booked2020 #wineorwhine @Cinfhen @BarbaraTheBibliophage @4thhouseontheleft

Trying this one again for the #wineorwhine prompt. I didn‘t finish it on audio the first time I checked it out. Will try again :) It has a lot of info about smells. #Booked2020 @Cinfhen @4thhouseontheleft @BarbaraTheBibliophage
