Welcome to Litsy!

This is the second book that I have read in the Dear America series, and I really did enjoyed the book!!!! I listened to the audiobook of the book. I enjoyed the narrator of this book. I rated the book a 5 out of 5 stars!!!

My own “Dear America” story in the making… Rivvy helping at my event this past weekend. @ValerieAndBooks should recognize this celebrity face!

Remember this series with the pretty ribbon bookmarks? We‘re finally chatting about it on my podcast! On Episode 96, we discuss the Oregon Trail installment, Across the Wide and Lonesome Prairie. Tune in to hear my guest and I talk about my Oregon Trail obsession, the lack of access to mental health resources in the nineteenth century, the book‘s depiction of race relations, and our odds of making it on this trip. Link to listen in bio!

Trying to work Tylenol PM out of my system, slow start to the day 😬 but these #YA #historicalfiction Dear America books are darling.

I loved the Dear America books growing up and continue to pick up new ones at book sales. They briefly did a miniseries of the original books but think they would make for interesting tv. Maybe tie them together through a preteen girl who finds the diaries or treat each episode as a single standing story. Technically it would be hard to pull off due to changing eras and sets but still think it would be cool. #fallintobooks #thisshouldbeatvseries
