Welcome to Litsy!

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.37-40: Sigh, poor Eleanor and Park. They have so many issues. I can see why they‘re labled as star crossed lovers. 😢 Eleanor, for good reason, has really low self esteem. (That darn Tina! I feel violent tendencies towards her.) And Park needs to have a bit more empathy when it comes to what Eleanor is dealing with. At least when it comes to Tina. ⬇️

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.33-36: I think Park‘s mom was sweet trying to share her love of make up with Eleanor. Even if she may have been a bit overzealous. And I think Park‘s dad was sweet telling Eleanor she was always welcome at their home. Was his reaction to Park‘s new look a bit upsetting? Yes, but also very typical of the time and his character. I think Park is lucky to have his parents. As we know, not everyone is so lucky.

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.29-32: this book just keeps getting sadder. I can‘t imagine Eleanor being stuck in her room for 3 weeks of Xmas break thinking she‘s broken up with Park. How bleak. And her mom really isn‘t any help. I couldn‘t believe what she said to Eleanor on Christmas about being like a family. So wrong. I‘m glad Eleanor and Park made up but the more I read of this book, the more depressed I get. I‘m trying to see the good moments.

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.25-28: as Eleanor‘s home life grows increasingly tense, as she worries about being kicked out again, she starts to take refuge at Park‘s home and with his family, bit by bit. Park is starting to be less embarrassed by her actions and appearance as they get used to being with each other. It‘s sweet but I‘m feeling very off kilter thinking of what Ritchie is going to do next. I can‘t imagine living in that environment.

The above three books are the ones I worked on this weekend. Eleanor and Park for ##LittensLoveRomance @StayCurious and Under An Endless Moon for #ReadYourKindle @CBee and The Wedding People just because.

#LittensloveRomance Ch.21-24: well that was scary. Ritchie is so dangerous. And those cops were useless. I mean seriously useless. I was also sad about Park‘s mom‘s opinion of Eleanor. I was expecting better. I think Park was expecting better. He‘s learning some tough lessons as he navigates his relationship with Eleanor.

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.17-20: ah the joys of talking on the phone - that‘s a flash to the past for sure. Now if someone calls me I‘m like who died!? How do we feel about her dad? He seems like a flake. Like he‘s of no use to anyone - which sounds mean but he needs to take charge and make sure his kids are being taken care of. Ch.19 was an important chapter and Eleanor and Park each went out on a limb. ⬇️

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.13-16: holding hands with your first real crush is the best. Rowell reminds us how this feels when you‘re young. Also, Why does Park need to learn a stick shift first? Because it‘s more manly? cringe. His dad seems like a jerk. But his home life is still a thousand times better than hers.
