Welcome to Litsy!

Book 66🎧
Sisterhood gone sinister🩸
Lois has a way of keeping you hooked on “what‘s going to happen” literally 2 minutes before the book ends👏🏻
Is justice served?😶

Vaguely remembered reading this book in high school, but couldn‘t recall all of the details so I read it again. Dark twist on feminism for sure. Just wish there would‘ve been more of the story, it ended pretty abruptly.

Another dark one. Apparently I‘m really feeling the Halloween creeps lately. This one was good enough, but not great by any means. 😂💁🏻‍♀️

#SummersEndReadathon Book 20

The audiobook was available via library Overdrive & I was feeling nostalgic for this book & Lois Duncan. For me the updates to the original 1979 version didn't quite fit-it seemed like mostly random mentions of cellphones worked into the story for the 2011 audiobook. It's not that I believe there aren't places where the extent of the sexism in this book still exist, it just didn't flow as well. Still a pick but I'd grab the original book instead.

This book really messed me up in junior high. I recently reread it and can't figure out why it upset me so. ⭐️⭐️1/2

Inspired by @LibrarianRyan. My choice for #octphotochallenge #disasterouskids is the girls in this book. I read this in high school and really enjoyed it. I wanted to be part of a feminist group (not happening in TX in the '80's), but these girls are lead astray in their search for equality. Try to find the 1979 version - apparently the publisher tried to update the book with horrible results.

Orig 1979, rev 2011, this is feminism gone batshit crazy. With 10 MCs, it takes some focus but the tension builds up beautifully. This left me very uneasy: the attitudes and actions of many seem very '70s and feel creepy and crazy and over-the-top until it doesn't seem crazy or dated at all...
