Welcome to Litsy!

Thank you @BookwormAHN for books!! I am excited to start on the a new adventure. The 3D card was super cute. Chloe Okoye freaked out the first time hearing it, but 2 sniffs later she was fine. The snickers are not photographed because I have a teenager who wants to split them because I do need all that sugar alone, he is helping me. Lol thank for everything 🥰

October Reads - Part 1

I think I beat my record of most read in a month. I ended up reading 31 books

Meh, it was an okay novel but nothing great. I‘ve read other books that feel similar and this one never felt particularly suspenseful or tense. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I was excited for this one after loving My Lady Jane so much. Unfortunately to me it wasn't nearly as good as the first. The audiobook performance was still good and I think that's why I'm giving it 3 stars. If I had been just reading the physical book honestly I think I would have added it to my DNF list. Maybe just not a fan of Jane Eyre times in history. I like that they are all standalones though.

That was how I felt now, like wheels had been set in motion and we were about to plunge together into something terrifying and exhilarating and entirely unknown.

Once again reading retellings of classics, but wait! I have actually read and enjoyed Jane Eyre. As the title suggests, this is the story from Edward‘s perspective. We meet him as a young boy, and follow him up to and through the story we know of him meeting and falling in love with Jane. Your heart will break for him as a boy, you may dislike him as a young man, he may/may not redeem himself; thoroughly enjoyed it.

I‘ve been wanting to read August‘s #Bookspin for a long, long time (and it gives me an excuse to reread Jane Eyre ❤️).

My #Doublespin is yet another short story collection in the Sookie Stackhouse series.

Another Jane Eyre retelling. There is always room for one more. With the Brontes as characters and Helen sticking around for a bit longer, the plot is a bit more convoluted but still great fun.

Jane moves to a new town. She meets Eddie, who is handsome, rich, and above all single. As time passes, Jane is intrigued by the legend of 'Bea' Eddie's ex-wife who died in an accident. Turns out, everyone has not so pleasing secrets.
As interesting as the premise is, the book was pretty flat. It felt a bit stretched out too. There wasn't any character development. A classic whodunnit!
3/5🌟

Jane meets Eddie after his wife Bea (and her friend Blanche) die in an alleged boating accident. Jane, Eddie and Bea all have pasts they are hiding from others. Jane is the MC, but we also get Eddie and Bea's POVs - past and present. None of the characters are reliable, so there are many twists and the ending left some questions unanswered in a very good way. Overall a very good thriller.

Make a great day everyone 😊
