Welcome to Litsy!

I really enjoyed this book so I‘m a little confused by the lower Goodreads rating for it. This is for mystery thriller book club at the beginning of January; it should make for an interesting discussion. Some of the revelations were predictable but some weren‘t and it was an easier read. Definitely an interesting premise! If you read the book synopsis & thought it sounded good, I‘d recommend you read it. You‘ll probably like it!

This is a poorly done thriller with a super thin plot and a main character who is a little hard to root for. Plus, the audiobook narrator is not good and repeatedly pulled me out of the story with her odd pronunciations. Disappointing.

Picked up I NEED YOU TO READ THIS @jessamaxwellauthor @atriabooks at our local bookstore yesterday @dollysbookstore ! Really enjoying this book so far! Highly recommend! ☕️📖

August Wrap-Up 💚🫶

3⭐
-mystery suspense thriller
-advice columnist
-the exerts from the “Dear Constance” column were rather tedious
-The MC deliberately keeps important information from the reader, which can be frustrating.
-a twist that I didn‘t see coming, but…
-While the twist was unexpected, I didn‘t buy into it, much, and I actually laughed out loud at the absurdity of it.
-NARRATION: Carlotta Brentan was fantastic.

Anybody else have some books they want to finish for the month? These two are my goal. I'm enjoying both so far and have plenty of reading time this weekend. I have an infusion tomorrow and on a completely separate issue I'm down with a severe hip sprain. Not a fun time that's for sure. I do have some cards and some other happy mail to send out tomorrow. #LitsyLove

This is one of my few 5 star reads this year and it is spectacular!

This is a book full of tension that twists you up and an ingenious plot driven by a protagonist who alternately frustrates the hell out of you then has you pumping your hand in the air yelling “go girl!” Every character is well-developed and plays their part to perfection.
