Welcome to Litsy!

I slowed down for Grayson. He shuffled to keep up, his boot scrapping the asphalt. I felt better once we had stepped into the trees, into cover-that was in my blood, the impulse to hide, to sneak. If you kept secrets for a living, you start keeping them all the time. You kept secrets for practice, for no reason at all.

This chilling dystopian novel was perfect for early morning reading while huddled under a blanket. How would you survive if winter never ended?

I can‘t thank Goodreads enough for this advanced read! I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I‘m not sure if the author intended it, but I identified some Wizard Of Oz parallels. It‘s a story about the search for “home” and all of the different characters you meet on the road. No worries if you‘re not a WOZ fan. It is also quite different. It‘s definitely not set in a beautiful landscape. In this story, it‘s winter all year round.

If I could pick one season to have as never-ending...winter would be the last one I would pick. Winter all-year-round would literally be a dystopian hellscape for me. Although, this particular hellscape feels like it could be an all too real scenario and this makes for a compelling, albeit alarming listen...one that I was completely there for.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

There's nothing that I'm specifically disliking about this book 50 pages in, but it just isn't grabbing me. Probably a case of it's not you, it's me.

Starting chapter two of this dystopian novel. It's supposed to be a mix between The Road and Station Eleven, but I haven't read either so I'm not sure what that means. Also ... that ring on my finger is new, I just got engaged!!! 💍💘

I really enjoyed this dystopian! It‘s dark, gritty, and perhaps a little too realistic, which makes it even scarier.

My 6th book for #NetGalleyReviewathon, but I can‘t post my full review until 8/29... I‘m doing a blog tour for the first time, and that‘s my day. 😬
