#LitsyTakeOver
review
TheAstronautPrincess
Me Before You | Jojo Moyes
Pickpick

COMMENT: be yourself like Lou does. Never be ashamed of who you are and if you can't move on like Lou at the beginning of her life, don't worry. Your moment will come even after your 20s or 30s or 40s, no matter what. Hold on.

SPOILER: Will dies. Lou succeeds in fashion's studies and realizes her dreams in Paris.

Shanghai Girls | Lisa See
Pickpick

COMMENT: if you are so lucky to be a big sister to your little sister by blood I really suggest this book. The power of the sisterhood is real and true since the moment that bloodline bond exists in real life. Love your little sister, protect her, be her guide, her soul, her heart.

SPOILER: they'll survive to any life's issue. May will go searching her daughter after she ran away at the end.

COMMENT: believe that you can heal from your disease or sickness in any life's moment. It just takes patience, worshipping, faith and very deep breathes. Never stop to believe that things could change somehow. We sick girls can have a future too.

SPOILER: Maddy's mom is really mentally sick and Maddy has myocarditis for real. She hasn't SCID but she's sick then. She'll be okay.

A Thousand Splendid Suns | Khaled Hosseini
Pickpick

COMMENT: you must be with a very open minded person to this world that shows you the real brutality of Kabul and Afghanistan against women. Mariam is such a strong woman I recognize myself with. We women have to fight for life more than men do cause we can handle everything, everything.

SPOILER: Mariam dies after have made a masterpiece of beauty with her life but she wasn't aware.

COMMENT: The belief of the Red Thread in China is really thoughtful and strong. Believe you are destined to a person in life and if you don't, just love yourself that's your own best friend then.

SPOILER: the main's character daughter is dead.

DebinHawaii Welcome to Litsy! 🎉📚👍😀Hope you enjoy it here! 7y
DebinHawaii Also, just FYI Litsy has a spoiler tag (on the same line as 'add image'when you post) that alerts people that haven't read the book that there's a spoiler in your post. I know you have it marked but it's hard to stop your eyes from going further when you are reading--at least for me. 🤣 @RaimeyGallant has a great blog post with other Litsy user tips--the link is in her profile. 7y
RaimeyGallant @DebinHawaii I think I should add a tip to my list about putting the part of a review that's a spoiler in the comments and marking it as such so everyone can still read the rest of the review/blurb. What do you think? 7y

DebinHawaii @RaimeyGallant That's a great idea! Smart thinking. 🤓👍 7y
RaimeyGallant @DebinHawaii Cool. Thanks. I'll add it next week when I'm doing updates on my blog. 7y
MrBook Welcome to Litsy! Enjoy your stay. 😊 7y

Small Great Things | Jodi Picoult

In case you missed it, #JodiPicoult took over Litsy this past Wednesday. 🎉👏 If you weren't able to tune in, don't worry! You can find all of her posts searching the hashtag #litsytakeover or by scrolling through our account feed. 👌📚

Happy Weekend!

Graciouswarriorprincess So much fun from one of my favorite authors! Thank you!😀 8y
RainbowStar There is nothing written by this amazing, awesome writer that does not catch you within the first paragraph and keeps you in her trance until the final page. I have been her #1 fan since day one (haven't told her yet). When you see one of her books grab it, set aside some time and enjoy. You will never go wrong when reading her books. Her research, her poetry, her ability to make you one with the characters and story...Awesome!! ❤️❤️🌈🌈 7y

Small Great Things | Jodi Picoult

"Sure, you know I work hard on my manuscripts — but working equally as hard without the fame and glory is my editor, Jennifer Hershey. We had a lot of spirited conversations about SGT and in the long run, it led to a better book!" — #JodiPicoult

Thank you, Litsians, for following along Jodi's #LitsyTakeover! We've had an amazing time today and added some great books to our TBRs.

Until next time, happy reading!

Graciouswarriorprincess It was great, thank you!😃💕 8y

Out of Africa | Isak Dinesen (Karen Blixen)
post image

"Whenever I see the beautiful sunset and hills outside my windows I‘m reminded of Isak Dineson and OUT OF AFRICA. I love the way she never describes how she feels about her lover. He meant so much to her that she couldn‘t do that relationship justice with words." — #JodiPicoult

#LitsyTakeover

Dolly Loved the book and the movie is one of my top ten. I then went on a journey reading West with the Night and Circling the Sun. 8y
BethFishReads A favorite book & movie 8y
Vansa I loved this book! The part where she looks after the deer and says..."I know a song of Africa, does Africa know a song of me" never fails to move me to tears. 8y
