Welcome to Litsy!

Aw summer reading! I‘m sorry to see those lazy days go, but I got some good reading done and 4 more books off the tbr pile this month.

This week I read my friend‘s book, essays of grief, first with the loss of her father followed by the loss of her grandmother. I thought I already read them all, but discovered I hadn‘t when I had to read a local author to get BINGO. Reading them compiled & sequenced, I got to experience the essays all again in a new way, and read some new material too. I was really moved by the progression of pain throughout. You should read it too.

Yesterday was such an exciting day! My friend of 22 years launched her first published book! When I very first met this talented lady she told me she was a writer, & that is who she is to the core. I‘ve watched her through the years grow, evolve, & never give up on her dream despite the rejection letters and obstacles life put in her way.
📕 You can buy her book of essays on grief from Barnes & Noble. I can verify it IS something she might say.
