Welcome to Litsy!

I have to admit that the cover caught my eye first - but it sounds so fascinating I had to buy it. Archeological thriller mystery I'm not sure if this is a genre but reminds me of Matthew Reilly? Anyway I bought it 😂 book buying ban be damned!

This is weird and definitely interesting at about halfway through. One of those books that after finishing, I'm not sure even then will I know if it's good or not. But damn, check out this amazing cover.

This TBR pile will never stop growing (and by pile I mean piles, plural, because let's be honest I have wayyyyyy more than fives books on my TBR list).

Guys!! Look at this cover!! 👀 I had to buy it. I have no self control. I hope it's good. 😱

Not sure how I feel about this one. I enjoyed the cultural insight and the discussion on the production of masks inherent in the culture of Mexico and the people of Mexico. However, none of the characters were likeable or terribly relatable. I am sure the author was trying to draw some parallels between the cultural concepts of masks and the masks that we wear, but I found the characters in this book annoying!

Made me laugh out loud. The book is interesting so far although it has taken a while to find the groove. Looking forward to seeing how it all turns out 😊

"When I went to Mexico, I understood just how far a mask can take you. In the dusty streets, villagers turned themselves into jaguars, hyenas, the devil himself. For years I thought wearing a mask was a way to start over, become someone new. Now I know better.”
― Lili Wright, Dancing with the Tiger

This was a fun and exciting read. This was a host of some of the most dysfunctional characters ever, but it worked with the storyline. I read this while I was on vacation in Mexico which made it even more fun!

This morning's Brooklyn #stoopbook #bookhaul from the dog walk. My pup was being rather impatient so I couldn't read descriptions and just grabbed this one because I remembered seeing the vibrant cover here on Litsy! I'm pretty pleased with this find!

The cover is absolutely stunning! The plot makes it a page turner and very interesting however I have to question the overtly used Mexican dichos (sayings). It made the novel seem unauthentic. I see the point the author wanted to make by including them but it just did the opposite for me. Would definitely recommend it for the plot.

This is so good so far! I am happy I won it in the Goodreads giveaways. Love the fact that it's set in Mexico.

TBR for August. Hopefully I make it through all of these! First I'm reading Dancing with the Tiger. I'm really liking it so far. The writing is phenomenal.

Alright! Time to start this baby that I won from Goodreads! 😀😀

Tonight's read. Love the cover and the first sentence. Hope it's good. @penguinusa

"What gives this novel its psychological power is its multifaceted exploration of how we hide ourselves in plain sight."

I picked this up because of the amazing cover...and at about two thirds through, the story within is every bit as colorful. Really enjoying this!

Another one that straddles being a pick and just so-so. The characters are all messes, making one bad decision after another, and there are a few too many viewpoints thrown on. Still, the story and plot were intriguing and kept me turning pages. It's definitely worth giving it a shot.

Dancing with, chewing on. It's all the same in our house.

Happy to finally be starting this one.

Ok, I'm interested.
