Welcome to Litsy!

Only 5 hours left of listening to this but I imagine it will probably take me at least 48 hours to finish

Hit my goal for #novelnovember with a few hours to spare! This is one of my favorite cozy mystery series. Whenever life feels overwhelming, I love to read a book in this series. It‘s set in a small town with a coffee shop that I would love to visit. Plus it has cats. This was my last prompt (#animalonthecover) for booked2020. Another great year of great books because of great prompts!

Who doesn‘t love a good apocalypse book during a pandemic? This book was recommended to me as like The Stand but with magic and I have to agree. I loved it so much and can‘t wait to get my hands on the next book #summerfun #onaudio

Whenever I read a book like this I am astounded by the imagination some people have. These stories were strange and surreal and used their otherworldliness to illustrate trauma, mortality, and autonomy. I particularly loved the women as silkworms story and the title story. Eerie and strange in the best ways. #animalonthecover #booked2020

Brilliant! Oliver expressed so many feelings and observations that I‘ve had with my beloved dogs in my life. That is the magic of poetry, isn‘t it? To put feelings we are unable to express into words. We are so lucky to have dogs in our lives! #Booked2020 #animalonthecover @BarbaraTheBibliophage @4thhouseontheleft @Cinfhen

This book focuses on Lea and Ettie, and the golem called Ava who was created by Ettie and Lea‘s mother to protect Lea. Set in 1941 and continuing for 4 years, the novel is beautifully written focusing on the 3 lives. Other characters include Marianne, Lea‘s family and partner, and a host of other minor characters. I also enjoyed the information about being a Jew and the religious aspects were not overwhelming. #booked2020

A good example of “be careful what you wish for.” Lucy and Owen decide to try an open marriage, for a limited amount of time, and with a set of ground rules. Of course, things don‘t go as planned. A quick, enjoyable read!

Was an entertaining read and reminded me of a case my mum had where the woman told her to ask the dog what he thought 😂🐶

This is very, very YA. It also appears to be an attempt at Twilight minus vampires plus extra werewolves. I enjoyed some bits quite a lot, but there was also a lot of eye rolling. 😬

I didn‘t hate it, but I decided to read the summaries of the rest of the series and definitely won‘t be continuing.

⭐️⭐️1/2

This was my #AnimalOnTheCover book for #Booked2020. Circled for the convenience of our lovely hostesses. 😂
