Welcome to Litsy!

Wow. So… once I got going I couldn‘t stop. I think the most heartbreaking part of this book is it‘s partially set in the 90s during our lifetimes! It‘s a rough read but so so good. @Chrissyreadit enjoying your gift - hot chocolate isn‘t the same without marshmallows :)

So I am not sure how I am going to use this as a “20“ goal, but ... I am going to go with the “out with the old“ part of this challenge and finish the 3 books I have on my current reading list so before the new year -- That's the plan. I quite a bit more on this one and “From Hell“

I don‘t recall a book being so hard to consume because of its contents. India girl infanticide historical fiction. Janani is a low level caste cleaner who‘s husband hates how she keeps having girls. This is a heart wrenching story. Yet it keeps amazing India perspective of tradition. Split times of her going through that and her daughter going back. Mother daughter bonding over past trauma. Felt like a breaking read, though necessary

This is the B&N book club pick for the month of March. I must say this was a good read but at times a hard one emotionally. The author does a very good job
of immersing the reader in Indian culture. And I found myself doing my own research into female babies and how many go missing. Really a powerful and thought provoking read. #bookspin @TheAromaofBooks
