Welcome to Litsy!

Overall good story. I LOVE the way the ebook was presented. It had some fantastic colored and moving illustrations in each chapter. My biggest issue with this novel is the name. The daughter is nowhere near a main character. It's just odd. I'm hoping because it was originally written in German that they just scrapped the original title and gave the English speaking world this.🤷 #55 #2019 ##justlikeharrypotterone

Really enjoyed the book. Loved both Lucy‘s personal story and the pregnancy facts that she presented. I‘m one of the 5% who was born on my due date and my mom also had pre-eclampsia (dr caught it and put my mom on bed rest immediately) and I was an emergency c-section as well. Excellent book. 5⭐️ #2019 #bookreview #graphicnovels #memoir #bookstagram

First book I read by Francesco Recami and must say: I like It! The story is a little bit too convoluted but all in all the reading is pleasant and keeps the pace all through the book, with few funny parts reflecting the life in what was once the Old MILANO. #2019

Finished this afternoon. While not my favourite book in the series, it does do a lot of set up for the remaining books. 4 1/2 ⭐️ #2019 #bookstgram #bookreview #harrypotter #gobletoffire

While I found the read to be dense and difficult to follow at times, the discussion with my bookclub on Saturday was fascinating. We barely referenced the book but talked a lot about the marginalization of women in general. 4⭐️ #2019 #bookstagram #bookeview #canadianliterature #litsyatoz #litsyatz2019 #w

Kind of good idea and story but not so easy going while reading it. I don‘t think I‘m going to read others by Simon Morden. #2019

I absolutely loved this book. I loved Eleanor‘s journey to hopefully becoming completely fine. It‘s interesting I read this book as I am struggling with loneliness and depression and anxiety as well. I thank Ms. Honeyman for tackling mental illness in a novel. 5⭐️ #2019 #bookreview #fiction #bookclub #bookstagram

This was between a so-so and a pick for me. It seemed like all the thriller stuff came right at the end. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this cover though. #54 #2019

Gosh I'm really torn about this book. It's a case of if this book were written present day would it be as well loved? I really liked the mythology presented in Dune and the world building is stunning. I didn't like the idea of Space Muslims. The author seemed like he was taking words like hajj and jihad and twist them from their true meaning. I don't consider myself to be super "woke" or anything like that but I am sensitive at least. #53 #2019

Hard to believe you can make a non fiction story out of such a period of Italy history. Just a few years, from the birth of fascism to Mussolini‘s rise to power, but such an involving storytelling, with a lot of references to actual documents: all together Scurati makes of this a book to fall in love with. #2019
