Welcome to Litsy!

Maybe I wasn‘t in the right mindset to read this book, but I had trouble connecting to the characters. It‘s got a cute, Hallmark feel to it, but I felt like the storyline was a bit all over the place. The main character was also particularly gullible and annoying, leaving me wanting to shake some sense into her, and the people who wanted to help her, more than a few times.

I enjoyed the last Kelly Harms book I read, so I‘m hoping this one‘s a winner too! #letterm #litsyatoz

#TBRtemptation post 7! I like this cover. Lily, a young artist whose career has yet to take off and who can no longer afford her city apartment. While packing, she finds an annulment letter from 10 years ago from her husband. He left a wealthy tech job to return to the simple life in Minnow Bay. She rooms at the town's inn while reconnecting with her surprised husband and making friends in its thriving art community. #blameLitsy #blameMrBook 😎

It got kind of annoying sometimes, but the over-the-top obliviousness of the main character worked for her, too. And it totally made me dream of living in small town middle America. Which I would actually hate, but I'm a sucker for that ambience in a book!

After finishing A Mother's Reckoning I need something light, fifty pages in and I'm enjoying the writing.

My favorite indie bookstore is Next Page Books in the New Bo District of Cedar Rapids, IA. Author Kelly Harms will be giving a book reading and signing there is October! #getindie

A really cute beach read. Other people have told me this book could totally be the next Hallmark movie and they are right. My favorite aspect of the novel was the setting of Minnow Bay. Can I live there please? It reminded me of Gilmore Girls' Stars Hollow. Not a mind blowing read, but a charming one that's perfect for vacation.
