Welcome to Litsy!

This book kept me guessing! Aiden has 8 days to solve a murder, and each morning he wakes up in a different body to relive the same day. After 8 different hosts, he has to uncover the truth - who killed Evelyn Hardcastle? The answer, however, is tangled with corrupt characters, other murders, and questionable allies. A mix between Clue and Agatha Christie - I couldn‘t put it down! You really have to pay attention while reading, but it‘s worth it.

This is as close as I could get to candy cane colored spines 😅 With most of my books in boxes it didn‘t leave me with many options. These are all (for the moment) unread though I‘m hoping to get to the tagged book soon. Haven‘t had much time to read amongst all the holiday festivities but I‘m trying! #wintergames #SlayBells #festivephotochallenge @MidnightBookGirl @Clwojick @StayCurious

I wanted to loove this book as much as almost everyone else did. I did enjoy it and wanted to keep reading but I felt it was too much characters to keep up with. The writing was beautiful though just too much going on to figure out the mystery along. So just enjoyed the ride.

This is quite an unusual concept and I have to admit that I found it a bit difficult to follow, particularly in the beginning. The jumping around between hosts and times/days was playing with my head and I had to really concentrate…hard! That being said, it was good. I enjoyed the whole book and was sorry when I finished it.

Reading this again as it totally fried my brain on initial reading. Think I'm concentrating more as I have nothing else to do but sit in the sunshine for a week.

So I read it and listened to it (I try to do that sometimes so that I can pick up where I left off in my commute) anyway, it‘s counting as a audiobook (even if it was about half) #BookishBingo

So I liked it for the most part. It was difficult at times because I couldn‘t remember who I was at times. But I did like how it all came together in the end. (Wish there was a level between “pick” and “so-so”)

I‘m doing a physical read and a audio of this book. My commute to work is being put to good use :)

Keeping my fingers crossed 🤞🏻 that this is exactly this type of book :)

So I‘m gonna start this one today (it‘s cold out and I am gonna stay in bed under my weighted blanket). ❤️ also I downloaded it from Libby as an audio book so when I do my cleaning chores I can pick up where I left off :)

Tedious. I gave up after 73 pages.

It's a bit weird.
You don't realize it's weird in the beginning because it's actually quite fun at first.
But, halfway through you're going to speed up the audio because you're bored now
And then you're going to get to the end and be like....
What?
No he did not
Where are they again?

Hmmm

My sweet husband finished my library!

Loved this audible! Definitely kept me guessing right to the end but plenty of facts / information that it‘s fun to have your own investigation on going throughout 😀

4/5 ⭐️

This was a fun audiobook! It is full of twist and turns that I couldn‘t see coming.

What a wild ride. I loved every moment of this book. The author really kept me guessing. (I don't try and guess while.reading a mystery.. I live the shock of the story as it comes together the feeling that it gives me!)

I am sorry I didn't read this when it came out last year! B but better late then never! it was delightful and a great mystery.

I am going to head over to BookBar in Denver at 10am to do some reading for my #24b4Monday and Dewys Readathon

I am so glad that Denver has Book Haunts!

#TeamSlaughter @Clwojick

#TIL This book has two titles The English title as listed and the American Title which is The 7 and 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle Fascinating!

Below are my books for the Reading Challenge this weekwnd! #Dewys24Readathon

Question: Do any famous authors participate in any Reading Challenges? I very curious!

I just finished "The 7 ½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle" by Stuart Turtan for our Library book club. It was very confusing. I recommend getting a notebook so you can keep track of what is happening. The book was clever and I was satisfied with the ending. It took so much talent to write a novel like this one. I don‘t have enough room to say any more, but you should read it if you like puzzles!

Oh my goodness! @TheSpineView what a package! I could barely fit it all in the picture. I love everything! Two books I can‘t wait to read PLUS a B&N gift card, and tons of Fall/Halloween goodies. I love the book sleeve and the bag. (I might have to go trick or treating!) You went above and beyond! I can‘t thank you enough for such a wonderful and thoughtful package. #screamathonswap

I started this book today. It's interesting so far. A little hard to follow but it's moving along nicely. And I got my swap package! Thank you to Katuia Rodriguez I can't wait to open it on October 30th! #AllHallowsReadSwap

So I finished this mindfork of a book a few days ago. #scarathlon #scaryscavengerhunt I‘m meets a few of the scavanger hunt needs: - a black cover, with a number in the title and where a character dies (yeah) This was a fun read. @TheReadingMermaid #teamstoker

With a familiar premise mashed with a familiar genre, what results is a debut novel that is a breath of fresh air for both and will leave even the most seasoned mystery readers bewildered.

What a wild and intricate plot. I'm not very into the mystery genre but this takes it to a new level. Looking forward to whatever this author does next.

Yaasssss! Who else is excited for this? - October 2020!!!

Wow, this was a stunning debut. The writing was impeccably executed & kept the reader engaged. A murder mystery novel, that is atmospherically enthralling. The reader follows along the MC who is tasked with solving a murder that happens at the end of the night. This character will experience the day 8 times all from the perspective/body of a new host. If you are in the mood for a thrilling murder mystery, check this book out! Perfect fall read.

Peculiarly good read, unique in some ways but also predictable (in a good way). Agatha Christie, Clue, Back to the Future, Quantum Leap, Memento among a few things it reminded me of.

“I‘m any face in the crowd; just the Lord‘s way of filling in the gaps.”

Don‘t know why, but this line just struck me and is staying with me. So far, enjoying the book!

More books recommendations for the #Scarathlon , #TeamSlaughter and #ScaryScavengerHunt .

I haven't read An Unwanted Guest yet but I think I'll read next month. :)

Everyone brings a library book to their favorite bar right?

@Avanders Sorry for the delay in posting, I took the pic but then got busy. I absolutely love everything! The coffee is fantastic and Murder in the Orient Express actually just broke me out of a reading slump! And the kids thought it was amusing how happy I was to get socks 🧦 ☺️#SFMBC

One of THOSE days

♟ The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle was fantastic. I couldn‘t put it down, I put off housework to keep reading (and I‘m paying for that today 🙈)
⁣
This book was the perfect mix of being able to guess twists and never seeing them coming. It kept me guessing and also satisfied with my ability to figure things out, exactly what I want in a mystery novel. ⁣
⁣
I have recommended this book to every I see since finishing it!

Labor Day reading while we monitor Dorian. We are inland FL so don‘t plan to evacuate, but I‘ve got loads of snacks, flashlights, water, and books. So I‘m kinda looking forward to some power outages 😝

Love me a good mystery

On #ADayInTheLife of Aidan a myrder happens - the murder of Evelyn Hardcastle. However, this doesn‘t just happen once. No, Aidan must re-live the same day again and again in different bodies until he solves the murder of Evelyn.

I have been on a photo challenge break for too long now! Let‘s see how long I can keep up with the posting schedule 😅

#RedRoseSeptember

Alright so I'm loving this one...and the author seems like an absolute dear...and it's getting me in the mood for more historical murder mysteries. The spookier the better. I haven't explored this genre a whole lot, so I'd love some recommendations.

Kept me on my toes the entire time. So good!

This was a murder mystery unlike any I‘ve read before. The main character inhabits the bodies of eight hosts in order to attempt to solve the murder of Evelyn Hardcastle. Helpfully there was a list of characters at the front to keep everyone straight although you still really had to pay attention to all of the twists and turns in the story.

This book is straight up addicting and blowing my mind...

Ella says, 'stop reading! It's time for rainy walkies'

Starting this this morning and it's pure bliss with this cooler weather...

#bookhaul #bnbookhaul It‘s only day one and I‘ve already picked up 3 books so I can get my free tote!
Couldn‘t resist the a favorite from my childhood, in a lovely illustrated edition 🐭🐸🦡🛶💕.... this could become a very expensive week at work!

Amazing and wonderful. The book caught me from the first page and I didnt want to stop reading!

So so confusing at the beginning, middle and then I loved the end. I think a major part of my problem is I tried to read this at the beach during family vacation with lots going on. It's not something that I was able to easily jump back into after a break. Would have been better for me if I had several uninterrupted hours to devote to Evelyn. But overall, it was so inventive and for that it's a total pick. #audiobook #familybookclub
