pickIf you‘ve ever read or watched anything remotely similar to this tale of two hitmen, you‘ll know which three beats L.A. Witt HAD to hit along the way. (I won‘t share ‘em here in case you‘re new.) She pulls each stage off beautifully via a ton of intense scenes that had me wondering whether all my expectations were about to crumble. It‘s a dark book, leavened only slightly by her trademark talent for emotional escalation, and I highly recommend it.
I made cantaloupe sorbet! It doesn‘t scoop nicely now it‘s properly frozen, but it sure does taste good.
I‘m about 60% into IF THE SEAS CATCH FIRE now. I haven‘t bought any books so far this month and I hoped I‘d get away without downloading any freebies, either, but this was totally worth adding to La TBR. I‘m loving it.
(And hey, look at me reading stuff ASAP after it comes into my life! I‘m living the dream, y‘all.)
Post-bike ride blueberry pomegranate juice in my reading nook, with more of the book I tore through while I cycled. I‘m so, so glad I discovered L.A. Witt in June. She‘s great.
This one‘s about two hitmen—one a mafioso, the other committed to destroying the crime families who killed HIS family—and it was still free on Kindle as of this morning if you want to give Witt a try.
