I like this, especially Amanda's inner thoughts throughout because I don't have enough experience with a trans person's perspective. The guilt she felt over not sharing her secret was tough for me to read-I often struggle with characters keeping secrets in stories. Two author's notes at the end: both great.

🎧 Tried it in audio + just couldn't listen to the Southern accent. Drawl + twang sound forced to me.

Wow!! The ending brought tears to my eyes. I didn't think I'd have such a range of emotions with this book, but reading about two sisters reuniting after the loss of their sister years before should have tipped me off. Lol. Very well written thriller. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #LitsyRC2 #LitsyReadingChallenge

Holy creeper alert!! A basement under the garage?!When we were looking for houses we saw one with a pristine wood shop in a basement under the garage. All the tools were hung perfectly straight on their hooks. Pretty sure that was all we needed to see. Lol. #LitsyReadingChallenge #LitsyRC2

#LitsyReadingChallenge update: Paper Girls for #LitsyRC2 ("Girl in the title," also "P" for #LitsyAtoZ), Monstress for #LitsyRC21 (recommended by...) because I wouldn't have picked it up it it wasn't for Litsy.

I really enjoyed listening to this retelling of The 12 Dancing Princesses set in 1920's New York. Susie Berneis does a great job narrating. The girls have distinct personalities and I cried hoping everything worked out for them. I'm going read read Catherynne Valente's Speak Easy next because it is also 12 Dancing Princesses in 1920's New York. It should be an interesting compare and contrast. #LitsyAtoZ #LetterG #LitsyRC2 #withGirlintheTitle

Reading challenges books read in January. I got slightly sidetracked with graphic novels, Gilmore Girls binge watching, and my country being destroyed. Regardless, I think I made good progress on my challenge lists. #litsyrc2 #litstatoz #readharder #ermadlibs #mounttbr yes, my drawing is a joke. I gave up trying.

TheNextBook Country being destroyed is a super valid reason to be distracted. 7y
