Welcome to Litsy!

Finished this audiobook yesterday during the #LitsyWalkathon. I really enjoyed it. I thought it was a perfect light and easy summer read. 💕

Orpheus was the only character that kept me from bailing on this book numerous times. I was confused if this was supposed to be a tale of finding ones self, romance, or an In and Out Burger commercial.

Wonderful!

Nopity nope nope. Just can't do the sexy but infantile man and uptight woman thing. No.

Trying a short light book for some morning reading for the #24in48readathon #24in48
I was still up at 5, so I got ready to go to the Y and then discovered they don't open until 7 on Saturdays. I was so annoyed, I went to bed. 😂

Because I like pics, here's one of my cat, Tikki, staring at my rabbit, Mister. I promise Mister wasn't terrified. I also promise he's not always in that cage, but he likes to chew cords, so this is for safety!

#TBRtemptation post 3! A debut romantic comedy considered Jane Austen in Los Angeles. Richard's a struggling and broke Hollywood producer. Elizabeth's on track to make partner at the law firm and has made friends with a Venice homeless man. A mysterious benefactor offers them a million dollars to split if Rich & Liz talk for two hours together every week for a year. He needs the money, she likes the challenge. #blameLitsy #blameMrBook 😎

I did not expect to like this book because its premise seemed too outlandish- a stranger pays two people $500,000 each to speak with each other for two hours per week for a year. But I got hooked because it takes place in Los Angeles, and the author's author's lyrical descriptions of the City of Angels indicate that clearly loves the city as much as I do. I kept reading to read about Los Angeles, and the plot hooked me

Not really the cheerful fluff that I had anticipated. Instead it's a slow reveal of how love can blossom, redeem & to an extent, heal wounds of the past. This is the story of Richard & Elizabeth who are thrown together, seemingly randomly by a mysterious benefactor who promises big money if they agree to spend 2 hours each week together over the course of a year and how they get to know each other (in part) by discussing movies and books.

I'm on a 'read some of the books you've bought' kick at the moment 😅 I'm halfway through this book which pitches the main characters together by an unusual proposal - spend 2 hours a week together, talking, for a year and share a million dollars.

A modern-day twist on "When Harry Met Sally," set in Los Angeles... I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The characters had real chemistry on the page, and I was rooting so hard for both of them! Kemper Donovan weaves a tale that's funny, poignant, romantic, and suspenseful. I just wish I was more familiar with L.A.'s neighborhoods since the city is practically a character in the book!

Normally I stay away from romances, but this one intrigued me. We follow the MCs through mutual distaste to the gradually deepening affection. It's not just romantic love either! Deepening, platonic love is given equal time and space. It was wonderful, relaxing book.
