Been reading this today. It‘s coming along. It‘s full of wisdom from his grandfather. I know it must be precious to him to have all this his grandfather wrote in the 1960s.

Been reading #WhenPeopleWereThings by Lisa Waller Rogers. So far it‘s a great book. I haven‘t read too far into it, because I just started reading recently, but so far it‘s spot on in the truth of history. It‘s an arc from #netgalley . Looking forward to reading more. 🙂📚🍂🧡🍂🙂

I bailed on this one. I just couldn‘t continue. I was too bored and the chapters were way too long and I just couldn‘t finish it. Sorry anyone who might have liked it. 😔 It just wasn‘t for me.

Just started today! It‘s my #BookoftheMonth for October and my spooky read for spooky month.

Scooting in at the very last minute…….What kind of word is this??? ☺️ Who would say I am verklempt?? I‘m sure there are some out there who might 🤔 but I don‘t know any 🤭.
“I‘m so verklempt today due to my friend‘s passing.” Make it make sense 🤭😂 All I can say is “What a word” 🫨😵‍💫

Been reading this evening. It‘s somewhat interesting, but not enough for me.🥱 But will continue to read for now.

Very nice book on Winston Churchill and his life and career with the Windsors! He lived a great life serving the monarchy whether they liked it or not 😂. Sometimes they butted heads but mostly were intrigued and respectful towards each other. Each King and Queen he served with he was respectful of and they of him. He lived through some trying times with them. Ty Net Galley for the arc!

This was a really good historical account of the mess ups in the United States, from slavery, to the Challenger disaster, and to collapses in our economy or the stock markets. It gives a really good account and shows how mistakes and failures can help us, if we move forward in a positive way, to survive and thrive again.

True crime story of Janet March‘s murder by her husband Perry March. They lived in Nashville, Tennessee and to others, their life looked like a perfect life, but it was far from that. Janet paid with her life for trusting in Perry March. It was a good story but kind of slow for me. Lots of law talk and evidence talk. That was good but it can go on too much for me sometimes and I get overwhelmed by it I guess.

#LitsyReads #KindleReads #TrueCrime

Really good! Great for spooky month! 😃 I don‘t want to spoil anything but a grieving mother who‘s life is kind of in a downward spiral because of her grief and loss, gets a job to finish a job of finishing a build of a home of a woman who has disappeared and was the home‘s builder before disappearing. Did you get all that?😬 It‘s a great read! I read it fairly quickly for me 🙂 Thank you to Net Galley, publishers, and author for arc

Been reading this book most of the day. It‘s starting to get more interesting to me because I‘m getting to the place in the book where I know more about the time in history when King Edward III abdicated and his brother and late Queen Elizabeth‘s , father, King George VI had to take the throne….so been reading most of the day, should finish sooner than I thought, but not sure.

By Rebecca Lafferty this is a compelling true story of the Rebecca in her childhood, tells of her father‘s crimes, and her thoughts through it all. I just rated it three stars because it was kind of slow for me reading, but it is a heartbreaking and devastating story. Had some language but only 2-3 times mostly. There is mention of abuse, of course, so if you are sensitive to that you might not want to read. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

I didn‘t finish.😔 I thought I would like it and I still might, I‘m just saving it for another day,maybe, if I decide to give it another try. Everyone seemed to like it but I just couldn‘t get into it.

I thought I‘d reviewed this 😔 I finished multiple books at a time and was trying to review them all and forgot some along the way, I guess. This one is a hard one to review which might be a reason as well. But Columbine was a really interesting and gripping read, but a heartbreaking one. It still left me wondering and still wanting answers. I can only imagine what the parents and those who lost loved ones feel.
#LitsyReads #Read2025 #nonfiction

I thought I had already reviewed this one here but alas I have not 😬 so here I go 😁…I love history. Not all history, mind you, but still lots of certain history. Anyway, this is on the Plantagenets. The rise and fall of them. There was much turmoil within all this family. I believe it was the reason for their downfall. A house divided cannot stand. .Great read, ifyoulikehistory.

We do not care that ____ is happening in the world. Wait 🫢….yes I do care. But I don‘t need to hear about it each second ! Please news give it a rest!! Who started news every second of every day anyway??!! When did that start?? It should never have started that‘s for sure! Thank the Good Lord we can change the channel!
Rant about news constantly, over 😂
#wedonotcarewednesday

WOW is all I can say on this one. I gave it 4🌟s. It‘s about a southern church town and you won‘t believe what‘s going on in that small town. Shew. I‘m just glad it‘s fiction 😂 but if you like psychological thrillers you will like this one.

Happy Weekend you all! I‘ve been reading this book all day. I‘m almost done so should be reviewing soon. I have to say I‘ve never really read a book quite this disturbing with the characters. I‘m glad it‘s fiction just saying 😂 #LitsyReads #weekendreads #saturdayreading

The Last Secret Agent: My Life As A Spy Behind Nazi Lines by Pippa Latour and Jude Dobson
Genre: Non-fiction
POV: Author Pippa Latour
Location: Early years: South Africa and years in World War II: France
Rating: 5/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I loved this book! Pippa Latour was the last secret agent in WWII. Yes she was a woman. Yes there were women secret agents behind enemy lines in France and were in many dangerous situations. This is an absolute Must Read.

Started this one a week or so ago and I‘ve been reading it most all day. I‘m getting to the good part now or at least I think it is 😆 . It was a slow start for me but it‘s picking up now. #LitsyReads #psychologicalthriller #sundayreading #fiction #ReadYourKindle

Happy Sunday everyone! Hope your day is full of reading blessings!

Just started this recently in the last couple days. About 2-3 chapters in. I don‘t know if I‘m going to like it or not. I‘m sure it‘s good but not sure if it‘s one of those I‘m indifferent to right now. But I will keep reading and find out. This is my Book of the Month for June and I‘m just now getting to read it. 🤨🙂🌷Hope everyone is having a good Thursday!

This book was good but okay good. It was up and down for me so I gave 3 ⭐️⭐️⭐️s. I thought it was more of a history of Mount Rushmore, but it seemed more of a history of Native American people that lived there and lives there now. And I sympathize with them for sure but just thought it was a different type of story & it was up & down on that. So it was good but just so so for me this time.

1. The Pastor‘s Wife - Just started today. Downloaded from Kindle Unlimited so it was free.😃
2. The Last Secret Agent - Started recently . Will be continuing. 🙂 Net Galley Arc.
3. Columbine - Started recently as well. Will be continuing. This one is hard to read. 😔 Received through Kindle Unlimited.
4. The Plantagenets - History doesn‘t hurt anyone, if taken in the right context. And I love me some history🙂. Also an Arc.

Sorry I‘ve been MIA but I‘ve been really busy and tired from trying to organize my house and take care of my mother at the same time. But The Last Secret Agent is a new book I‘ve started reading this past week. I am only into it a chapter or two, maybe three, but so far it‘s very interesting. Can‘t wait to read more. #LitsyReads #2025Reads #SundayReading #NetGalley #nonfiction #memoir

I really liked this Christian fiction by Jill Eileen Smith! Great fiction faith-filled writing . My first by this author. I will have to get more of her books because I really liked this one. A fictional story of what maybe might have happened from her point of view. I can only imagine what it was like to walk with Christ face to face. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
#LitsyReads #ChristianFiction #2025Reads #NetGalley #DawnofGrace

Just giving a heads up…I didn‘t finish this book. I will be shelving and maybe giving another try another time. . I just couldn‘t get into it. Didn‘t want to pick it up and read it. So I don‘t like forcing myself to read something I‘m not interested in. Nothing to do with the author at all. Just me. I may pick it up again sometime. What I read there was no bad language or inappropriate content that I remember. ⭐️⭐️ #DNF #LitsyReads #fiction

I thank all who serve and those especially who gave all serving. #memorialday2025 #memorialday

A Last Hope by Verity Sandahl. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I really liked this beautiful faith entwined story of a Royal couple to be married when they came of age but evil always comes to mess with everything good. I loved it! Clean romance. From not trusting to realizing they‘re the only one who they can trust. It is a beautiful story to me.
