Welcome to Litsy!

Saved this #auldlangspine rec from @meganann specifically for a summer read! It was a fun family drama. I really liked the creative way things resolved in the end!

🎶🎵On the seventh day of #12BooksOf2022 my book log gave to me… my favorite book of July 2022!
@Andrew65

#12BooksOf2022 Day 7- July
This was such a fun read and had all the nostalgia vibes! The older generation is ready to hand over what they've built to the younger generation, but they're not quite sure they can handle it. The younger generation wants to make changes to what they see as an outdated way of doing things, but the older generation doesn't think it will work.

July #12booksof2022 I‘m not sure this book would normally be a 5⭐️read but it was the impulse read I bought for the summer and it led me to #sundaybuddyread and in a totally roundabout way to this yearly book round up. My Sundays are so much fun now. This book was spectacular in its pacing for our weekly chats, always some dramatic bomb went off just before our chapter break. Litsy became a whole new place because of this book

I loved this one! It was great fun and definitely had some Dirty Dancing vibes. Perfect book to end the year with.

Thanks again @TheBookHippie

Christine! @TheBookHippie Thank you so much for the awesome #jolabokaflodswap package! I‘ve been wanting to read the book for awhile, the bookmark is adorable and so are the napkins. It‘s 12 degrees in South Carolina today so the hot chocolate is going to be consumed very soon 😂 Thank you and Merry Christmas!

@MaleficentBookDragon Thank you for hosting my favorite swap!

If you love character driven novels, you will like this one. I love books with lots of characters and perspectives, it draws me into the story and I don‘t get bored. But not for you if lots of characters in a scene is confusing or uninteresting for you.

I really liked this book. It was the perfect summer read. I could just picture what it would have been like to spend a summer vacation at the hotel in the Catskills. I enjoyed all the characters and all the secrets that came out from their long history as hotel owners and friends and moving on with the next generations as they came together to decide whether to sell the hotel.

Great end of summer reading. A total #blameitonLitsy read. #Booked2022 Set in an Inn, Lodge, or Hotel

Nice summer read!

Still catching up on reviews from last month. This one was a delight to read with the #sundaybuddyread crew. Tons of family dynamics and Catskills nostalgia. I fell in love with all the characters despite their many flaws and was rooting for them to figure out their best futures and the fate of their beloved hotel.

Picked this for my book set at a hotel or inn for #booked2022 and I LOVED it. Multi generational family saga set around a holiday resort in the Catskills this was soapy but so much fun…

4.5/5 ⭐️ Summer in the Catskills! I enjoyed the different generations coming together over their family hotel. #sundaybuddyread

A fun summer read! The story of an iconic hotel in the Catskills and the drama between the two families that own and run it including whether or not to sell. Some style choices I didn‘t love, but didn‘t take away from the overall story or enjoyment. Read for #sundaybuddyread

Read for the July #SundayBuddyRead this is the perfect book for any summer reading list. The author brings the Golden Hotel & summers in the “Borscht Belt” resorts of the Catskills to life. Lots of nostalgia, family dynamics & secrets & a mostly likable cast of characters as three generations the Goldman & Weinberg families try to decide whether to keep their fading hotel or sell it to a developer. A charming & engaging story that made me smile.💚

I had so much fun reading along with the group for the #sundaybuddyread. Loved the families and the setting in the Catskills. I had a little trouble remembering which grandparents, parents and children belonged to which family. Still a definite pick!

“Mothers and daughters. Was there any other relationship so achingly complex?”

This was such a fun read and had all the nostalgia vibes! Can't wait to discuss this on Sunday! #SundayBuddyRead

Thank you for sending this to me Debra! Now I can finish reading the last section for Sunday's discussion! 😁 @kdgordon #LitsyLove #SundayBuddyRead

It was KILLING me to stop reading at all the #sundaybuddyread predetermined sections and now that I‘m finished it, I‘m so sad!!! What a perfect summer read! I loved everything about it, the history of the Borscht Belt, the multigenerational story, the twists and turns and the ending. I picked this book up because it had summer in the title and discovered a few days later @TheBookHippie was doing a buddy read with it ❤️❤️ July has been wonderful

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ loved every minute of this book! It was fun and scandalous and heartwarming and a great book to read in the summer. Thank you to #sundaybuddyread for great discussions this month!

Books are on their way.

It's about 101°F/38°C out there but luckily it's a dry heat here in NJ. I ran my errands & did some cleaning. My guy is at his parents' house for a while. Hopefully I can finish three chapters, answer the #sundaybuddyread questions, and read some more!

What a perfect book to read during the summer! It makes me want to watch Dirty Dancing on repeat and has a beautiful nostalgic feel to it of the bygone era of family resort vacations in the Catskills. Told in multiple viewpoints, this novel is the ups and downs of operating the last remaining resort in the Catskills and all of its complications. It‘s hilarious in parts with a sweet ending. Perfect choice for #SundayBuddyRead !

What a gem of a summer read! Joining in discussion today then I have to finish this! #sundaybuddyread #booksandcoffee #porchlife
