Welcome to Litsy!

Tagged book is #9 and in progress but there‘s no chance I‘m finishing it today, I‘m like 40 pages in. So 4 bingos for June.

King of Ashes was the best book of the month. 🔥

2 DNFs and probably 3 more that should have been 😩

My #bookspin list for July. My library is starting a new challenge for the next 6 months, so I‘ll be working on that. Some of the prompts on the bingo card are really easy this time—read what you want, read comfort fiction, read a book set outside North America, & read a book with a crime. So, my usual books. @TheAromaofBooks

😬Forgot to include this book for the month of February 2025 Book #9

What can I say about this book? For me was more like a reflection of these characters about themselves and life during their travel. A philosophical thinking, but didn‘t feel it like a novel with a plot. But judges have more literary experience than me. 😄 3.5⭐️ I liked it but didn‘t love it. Maybe a re-read? 🤷🏽‍♀️

February 2025 Book #5

I really enjoyed this book but I understand is not for everyone because is slow, maybe story was dragged a little bit and some convenient actions present that helped that ending. I usually don‘t like or enjoy stories about addictions, maybe too close to work, but there was something in the writing style that I loved, how author described the characters, that self talking, reflection, so deep, so many wonderful quotes⬇️

January 2025 Book #9
This is the conclusion (supposedly) of Mirren Triggs trilogy) I know first book is already translated (The Snow Girl) which is a Netflix series.
I liked the conclusion. At the end we see a mature Mirren who decides to make a choice in her relationship and life in general. The case in this story is so sad. A body was found with his “mouth sewn” and a father looking for his son who disappeared 30 years ago. 3.8/4⭐️
