I've never studied advanced literature or creative writing or anything of the sort and sometimes I think maybe this book isn't written badly, maybe I'm just not sure of the definition of good writing... Sometimes I feel that despite the big amount of books I've read I'm just too much of a layman to determine if a book's well-written or not 🤔

It's always a win when I can find used English books around here 😁📖

My first ever batch of #LitsyLove mail just arrived! Thank you so so much @Lovesbooks87 @BookwormAHN and @Stacypatrice ! This made my day 💌💌

I started this as an audiobook but soon realized it's a bit too complicated for me to follow that way. I heard so much good about this 🙂

Wow. Alicia is found with slit wrists next to her beloved husband who has been shot in the head five times. She never speaks again until a motivated psychotherapist takes it up as his personal mission to help her.
I haven't read such a good thriller in a while.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Twenty years after a deadly virus sweeps out most of Earth's population, a group of musicians and actors travel the post-apocalyptic North America to perform Shakespeare and give concerts to residents of this new world.
Interesting book, interesting world, although I wasn't really satisfied with the ending. Worth a read though.

So I spotted a hippie van speaker/radio in my uncle's garage a few months ago and I made it quite clear that I'd love to have one too. So here it is, I have my own now! It's so cool, it makes an engine-starting sound when you turn it on. 💜 It'll be perfect for listening to audiobooks in the house! 🎧

How funny that the narrator of this audiobook and one of the main characters in the book are both Kirsten!

Performed by the author himself, this bok was equally sad and funny. He writes about the struggles of being a "colored" kid in post-apartheid South Africa. I really liked the parts where he was speaking in different South African languages, it's remarkable.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Kate Quinn superbly intertwines real historical characters and true events with fictional details here and there, never twisting facts too much to fit her storyline. I devoured the author's note at the end (something I don't always do), learning which characters and events were real and which parts were made up by her. Brilliantly written and very well researched historical fiction. Recommended for those who like to read about both World Wars.

Love this guy! 🎧

This audiobook took me quite a long time to finish but that wasn't for my lack of interest. I just loved listening to this strong, hard-working, focused and driven woman who could make the most out of the vague job description of a First Lady, and for very good and important causes as well. I can't help but admire her, even though I'm not an American. That the author herself was reading it just added even more to the book's authenticity.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The literal book thieves! A man and his two younger sisters stole 73 books in an hour, worth around 650 USD 😮 They got caught on the scene and everything was returned to the shop. I assume they didn't steal all that to read them.

This was a pretty nice and sad book about family, love and trying to do the right thing. But it just didn't really come alive for me. It was just meh. :/
⭐⭐⭐☆☆

Awesome giveaway by @Kayla.Adriena ! Hope it's okay that I live in Europe 😁

This was the last title I added to my #TBRjar and after a good shake it came right out. @my.books.in.squares it was your review here on Litsy that made me add it to my tbr so thanks for that, I hope I'll like it 😃

It's Hungarian poetry day!

"What moves me so deeply, about this little prince who is sleeping here, is his loyalty to a flower – the image of a rose that shines through his whole being like the flame of a lamp, even when he is asleep…"

I won't deny I bought this book (that's not in the Litsy database) because I'm Vera too! 😁

A private plane plunges into the ocean 16 minutes after takeoff. Only two survive: an average painter and a four-year-old boy. We get a glimpse of the events leading up to the tragedy, from the perspective of the deceased as well as from the view of the investigators trying to figure out what happened. Mechanical error? Human error? 🤔
This was a good book, but not breathtaking.

I just love historical fiction and especially World War II, and this book didn't disappoint. First I felt like it was a bit too fast-paced with those big leaps ahead in time, but this actually helped to show a more encompassing view on the characters' fates. This is no corny love story but rather the tale of two people struggling to love again after so much loss, with the shattered pieces of their hearts.(But boy, was it also so damn witty!)

I'm in the dormitory with only this book and no Kindle, so at least I don't have to think about what to read next! Any thoughts about this one?
#RuthWare

It's a serial killer's dream to murder in a country that doesn't acknowledge any criminal activity and does everything to blame obviously connected murders on invalids, drunks or enemies of the Party.
An interesting and well-constructed book; although I'm not sure I'll read the next one in the series.
⭐⭐⭐⭐☆

Very well depicted and interesting setting, brought to life perfectly by the voice of Wil Wheaton. I can totally understand this obsession with video games and unfortunately I see this as a not very unbelievable future for humanity. And although the story was never boring, somehow I felt like the hunt for the egg was sometimes too easy and effortless.
Can't wait to see the movie! ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆

This was so fun, thanks for the tag @Hope_a ! Let me see yours @oOArankaOo and @ReadingisMyPassion 💕

"For you, a thousand times over."
Very well written book about family, love, loyalty, sin, guilt and redemption. Hosseini writes in his foreword that readers often tell him how this book helped put a personal face on Afghanistan for them, how it made them see it more like a real place. I think the same goes for me. It was a really nice read overall.

Started #ReadyPlayerOne audiobook today! 🎧 Love the voice of Wil Wheaton 🙂

Wow. I don't regret reading this book despite the number of DNFs it got on GoodReads. Hard and powerful and really sad sometimes, but still inspiring in the end. Do not read if you hate books with domestic violence.
I also loved how medically correct it was with fancy words like serosanguinous fluid 😆 oh, and the voice of Alex McKenna...? 💚
⭐⭐⭐⭐☆

1. Teleport!
2. Finished tagged book a few days into the year

Oh my 😭😭 what can I say about this book... I fell in love with Charlie's character at the very beginning. Gripping, emotional and devastating.
