Welcome to Litsy!

I‘ve been wanting to read this book for AGES! And about five pages in my brain went: ‘well he sounds a bit pretentious‘ and then I had to put it down and I walked away... I don‘t know why, I just didn‘t jive. I love true crime, and I wanted to know about the current city I live in but... it‘s a very sad, nope.

What better way to spend a lockdown than to read about all the serial killers your current city had?? #currentlyreading

Wow. What a wild ride this has been! It‘s incredibly informative, provocative, and terrifying. I think it‘s an important read; and while it is a difficult read it was worth the discomfort and the many many breaks I had to take. #truecrime #mustread #bibliophile

1. Chilling
2. Yes, ordered two books I‘ve wanted to read for quite some time that weren‘t available online at the library 📚

A frightening statistic in my hometown around the time my mother was growing up...

Now that I have more than a little free time, I‘ve decided to try and finish this one! It‘s snowing here and I can‘t leave the house so I‘m curled up with a cup of tea and my slippers. #mustread #bibliophile #truecrime

I‘m lounging in my sister‘s cabana enjoying a summer drink and an eerie book about my hometown‘s history while enjoying nature :) perfect day to read! #bibliophile #truecrime #mustread

I never did get to finish this book before because it was recalled from the library. I have to admit that it is a little eerie reading about my hometown; especially since I recognize a lot of the places mentioned even though decades have passed! #truecrime #bibliophile #michaelarntfield

One more from The Forest City Cookbook. Goat Stew. Now goat isn't all that common around here but I have had it before (the first time was in a trip to Haiti in 2007ish) and it is quite delicious.

Some (okay quite a few) local chefs got together recently to publish this delightful cookbook full of recipes from around the city. It's absolutely wonderful. And it's over 500 pages with beautiful photos. I'm so happy I purchased a copy before they ran out.

Tagged book semi-unrelated. Local professor who wrote about the city's awful past.

Don‘t think I‘ll be able to sleep tonight. #truecrime #bibliophile #bookchallenge

London, Ontario littens, I think we should have a spring meet up, what says you? I have a book to return to @Jenshootsweddings at least I think it‘s hers 🤷🏻‍♀️

Kinda creepy that this is about my hometown but very interesting.

Started this one last night. It's the last book left on my #readharder challenge: A book set within 161km of your location. This is actually a book about the city that I live in now. And I'm incredibly glad that it is not full of serial killers anymore😱🤤 The city has changed so much since the books time period. #londonontario #forestcity #canadiancrime #notabouttheblackdonnellys
