The Quiet American | Graham Greene

It‘s a war story, but it‘s more than that. It‘s an exploration of whether being “neutral” and being “innocent” are the same thing, or even compatible. #bookspin and Q for #LitsyAtoZ @TheAromaofBooks @Texreader (photo is Saigon 1955 from the Internet.)

Ruthiella My first Graham Green and still my favorite. 9h
TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 9h
Lcsmcat @Ruthiella My first was The Return of A J Raffles which we saw in London. My mom had us read it first because she was afraid that with the accents we wouldn‘t understand. 😂 9h
Texreader Oh!! Excellent pick for letter Q! I haven‘t read anything by him. This looks like it would be a good start 6h
CarolynM It‘s such a good book. My first Greene too @Ruthiella & tied for favourite with 2h

⭐️⭐️⭐️ June‘s #DoubleSpin

Leah‘s daughter returns home after being gone for 5 years living on a cultish commune with her batshit father.

I think this book‘s WTF-am-I-reading-page-turn-ability helps to gloss over some of the flaws of this book. Ex: The daughter in this book reads like a 13 year old during a time where she is written to be 18, plotholes, flat writing at times, etc.

I really struggled with this one (and so did my IRL book club). The characters, especially Sarah‘s twin sister Emily, are unlikeable. Cozy mysteries are not typically known for strong plot lines, but this one seemed even more scattered than most. I liked RahRah the cat! I don‘t plan to continue with the series. #Vladimir #CatsOfLitsy #LitsyAToZ #LetterO #HasShortChapters #52BookClub25

I was expecting a feelgood story about mother-daughter relationships and “found family”, but what I got was a woman who sees ghosts, superficial relationships and a confused and confusing story. This one wasn‘t for me, sadly.

Lewis truly had a gift to break down complex issues into bit-size understandable chunks.

Looking into the what, the how and the Who behind some questions everyone asks themselves at one point in their lives; and explaining in a sensible manner the why behind Christianity

Mockingjay | Suzzane Collins

I've never liked this conclusion Collins chose for the series. It always felt a bit forced and then patched up with a very unbelievable epilogue.

Re-reading it just confirmed my dislike.
It's like Collins has a comfort zone of writing, and this was way out of it.
The pacing felt wrong, the tension was non-existing and the urgency the other 2 books held fell flat where I would have wanted it to be pivotal.
Now I'm ready for the prequels!

What a wild ride. Political upheaval, rebellion led by a tyrant's children, genetic engineering, fanciful creatures, non-binary characters. It was everything. #QueerBC @PuddleJumper #LitsyAtoZ I used the author's name @Texreader

Texreader And that cover!!! 6d
PuddleJumper ❤️❤️ I'm excited to get into this series 6d

Loving the series so far. The first in this series was an #AuldLangSpine pick. I knew I was in trouble when I got to the end credits and heard “and was produced in the year 2024”. 🫢😅 I don‘t typically find series while they are ongoing and was already ready to add book 3 to my TBR for March but it won‘t be here till August 🥲🎻

At least August is closer now than when I wrote this in February 🤷🏻‍♀️ #LitsyAtoZ #LetterM

This book is such fun, Vera is a great character, but it also touches on dark subjects. Overall, a good balance.
