Welcome to Litsy!

#5JoysFridays Happy Friday All!! 🩷😊🫶🏽 1) reading everyone‘s posts and reviews has put me in a sleepy trance- which is good!!!👍🏽 because I was in a lot of pain before I clicked on Litsy, I‘m comfortable, but now I have to pee. 2) so far I have taken on this recovery from a back procedure with no pain meds and only a little ice. 3) my mom saying I am acting like a toddler because of the looks I give her every time she tells me to do something

My checkouts from the library today! I have a hold placed on volumes 7-9 (deluxe edition) for The Girl From the Other Side…and I‘m #1 on the wait list…so excited!

Book #1 in the Vera Stanhope series. I had a hard time with this one but I think it was because I was distracted. The story wandered a bit & had a couple characters with similar names which was confusing. But overall it was good.

January 2025 Book #1
I don‘t know but there was something in the writing style that I couldn‘t connect well with the story or characters. I found it boring, even in the romance, repetitive. I struggled to finish it because I lost interest in the story in various occasions. However, the grief process parts were so well described and emotional😢 in general 3⭐️ for me.

The book Zuckerberg does not want people to read. The author cannot promote it but Macmillan can sell it- The story is on my IG if anyone is interested.
Anyone one else hear about this book?

@TheSpineView Glad to see you back.

Herland keeps showing up on feminist book lists I'm trying to read through. Noticed it's book #2 in a trilogy. But book #1 is rarely mentioned. Do I need to read the first to understand what is happening in Herland?
