Welcome to Litsy!

This was just not for me. It was slow to get anywhere. I hated the characters. I felt like it just went in circles to go nowhere. Just not a fan of this one. Definitely a pass for me.

Just not the right season for me. Rather than sympathizing with Mia, I found that she just annoyed me. Off to the Little Free Library it goes. #HailTheBail

This is my #ReadOrDonate choice for July. Some of you have already posted. What is everyone else reading? 🤔 I love seeing everyone‘s choices! 🙂

I was looking for something lighthearted last night and started this…Got to 18% and it was just not doing it for me.

This is a VERY old #NetGalley ARC 😅

Despite the fact there were a few laugh out loud moments it wasn‘t enough to sustain this one. Although not horrible (⭐️⭐️⭐️) it wasn‘t anything I‘d rush to recommend. Mia wakes from a coma with no memory of who she is…and that might be a good thing. Great setup just dull follow through. #readingchallenge2022

Sammy is rubbing himself on book. Do you think my sister‘s cats will be pleased about his scent all over it once I give it to her for Christmas? 😂 #catsoflitsy

This was a quick fun read. The twists weren‘t exactly surprising, but it was a satisfying rom com type story.

Hi to all my Litsy friends! I‘ve missed you guys!

I‘ve been in a bit of a reading slump lately but I‘ve eased my way back into it with a few romance novels, and I just used my teacher appreciation gift from last spring to get this #bookhaul that arrived the other day!!!

I‘m super excited about some of the pretty editions and about the tagged book which I‘ve been waiting to read all year.

Predictable? Yes. Realistic? No. Worth picking up? Yes. If you need something light and easy but with a touch of introspection, this is a good pick. Mia's "journey" to figure out who she is takes some fun twists and ultimately ends in an entirely ridiculous way. But it's cute and fun and great for summer.

Started this one today! So far it‘s super cute, funny, and light...just what I wanted. 🤗🥳

I enjoyed the first 2/3 of this (once I got over the absurdity of the hospital releasing her in her condition) but then it became #toomuch
Too ridiculous
Too convoluted
Too hard to believe
I guess I wanted a little more depth. Still, it was entertaining and contains several truth bombs about our image obsessed society.

Siri, Who Am I? is laugh-out-loud funny – as in splitting-your-sides, tears-running-down-your-face, can‘t-even-talk-you‘re-cracking-up-so-hard kind of funny!

A big thank you to Sam Tschida, Quirk Books, and NetGalley for providing a complimentary Advance Reader Copy in exchange for this honest review.

On the surface, Siri, Who Am I? by Sam Tschida from Quirk Books is a fun novel combining a love story and amnesia, but Tschida goes further by diving into identity in the time of social media. Does identity drive social media, or is social media influencing identity? The footnotes are the inner monologue of the novel passing judgement, asking questions, and making statements. https://onthebl.org/2020/05/14/siri-who-am-i-by-sam-tschida/

I just want to start off by saying that you have to suspend your disbelief to fully enjoy this book. If you go into the book thinking it‘s going to be super realistic, you‘re not going to enjoy it. There are lot of things that are pretty unbelievable. So if you read this book, just follow Mia and just go with it. Don‘t think too much about it.
