Welcome to Litsy!

Oh goodness, I've delayed finishing this, eking it out almost page by page. A beautiful story of lives and love. Each word is perfect. Each page made me stop and think.
The characters are realistic, no perfection here! But how I rooted for them.
I've been watching Fleischman in Trouble and there are similarities...

March 27, 2025 READ this book very slowly. It is definitely not written like other books. Some words are repeated. The sentences are fragmented but the ideas are there. Overall, the author captured the theme of love through these two characters by telling a love story. I would give the book 4/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

March 27, 2025 These words are simple but mean a lot. Simple words or sentences may look simple but can have a deeper meaning. For example, read the words above. She is likely gone from Abe's life which is pretty sad. You can tell how much Abe loved Jane and how much they had gone through together. He was by her side and cared for her with every last bit of his own heart. He wanted her to feel loved. And I THINK SHE DID ❤️

March 25, 2025 On Chapter 27!!! Very close to the end. I feel like the pace of the writing is picking up speed. It was slow in the beginning and middle and NOW it is getting faster. I read mostly about Jane and how she is feeling after giving birth to Max. She wasnt even sure whether she would have Max but she did and Abe is helping in any way he can. She appreciates it. He also is writing a book while she is making artwork. Abe loves her #love

March 25, 2025 whoa 25 twice haha Anyway, Ik I have posted very little about this book. I have been busy and have not had much time to sit in my bed and read. I enjoy reading but can't seem to find time. Im on Chapter 24 and every page that I read, I can really feel all the emotions and love between the characters. The book is a gift just like Ana Napolitano stated. Jane is reflecting back on how she gave birth to Max and also what it felt like

March 11, 2025 I thought this book was going to be written the same way as other books where the pages are filled from top to bottom and continue to the next page. Nope. This book is set up in a diary-like fashion and most paragraphs begin with "You remember...". I am really liking the way that the author writes each chapter from different perspectives: Jane, Abe, and Max (miracle son).

March 5, 2025 MY NEXT TBR

I am bailing on this, at least for now. Stories told in the second person need to satisfy a very specific mood for me. I can see what the author is trying to do and how epic a love story it could be, but it isn't hitting the spot. Plus, the "Alice" pov suggests a direction I don't care to go when trying to settle into a love story.

This came out today so I thought I should probably read my ARC. 😬
