Welcome to Litsy!

Based on actual advice from her father, this debut is is a coming-of-age story with great advice: avoid forks, spoons are dull, and knives are the way to go. Knives are in the middle, they are balanced—not too sharp, not too dull. But they have an edge, so they are sharp when they need to be. Although this is lighthearted with a fun premise, the characters work through some weightier topics and I applaud that. My only criticism, it was too long.

From the beginning, Forks, Knives, and Spoons is a wonderfully nostalgic walk down memory lane! A charming story of Amy heading off to college armed with the words of wisdom from her father. The down to earth journey of roommates who become best friends, the dreams they share, and the boys they fall for will keep you turning the pages! This book was so much fun to read and took me right back to the late nights of dorm life.

Got in some great reading time while on my cruise to Cozumel...so relaxing!! Now to finish this book on the ride home🤗

I just won all these books and bag on Facebook from author Leah DeCesare!!!😬😬😬 #lovegiveaways #forksknivesandspoons

One book resolution I‘ve been trying to stick to this year is bailing on books that just aren‘t grabbing me without feeling guilty about it. There‘s just too many good books to read and not enough time. I only made it 17% into this book, but I really had a hard time following the format in which the story was written, and by default getting a feel for any of the main characters. I loved the forks, knives, spoons premise, but it got old quickly.

Lured in by the tag line of this one. Anyone read this yet? #litsyatoz #letterf

I liked how it was set in the past and not modern day. Some twists were predictable, but I didn‘t mind. Personally I think this is good for filler if you‘re in between books but I don‘t see myself picking this up again.

I am not a rom-com kinda girl but I binged read this one. It‘s full of twists and turns and gives you that feeling of nostalgia with your different kind of relationships. I would definitely recommend!! Check it out!

Also reading this as well. I hope I can juggle three books at once. 📚

When the author of the book you‘re reading gives a shout-out to your book club!! 🤓🤓 #NerdingOut #BooksOnTap #Bardstown #Kentucky #NCPL #NelsonCountyPublicLibrary

Book mail yesterday. Looks interesting

#TBRtemptation post 7! Released in April in paperback. In this romance, Amy York's father tells her right before college that there's 3 types of guys: forks, knives, and spoons. She uses this classification guide alongside her roommate, Veronica, through heartbreaks and soulmates. Beginning in 1998, their freshman year at Syracuse U, they meet guys from slotted spoons to shrimp forks while looking for their steak knives. #blameLitsy #blameMrBook😎

Today I met author Leah DeCesare at her book signing at Barrington Books. Excited to read her debut novel!
