Welcome to Litsy!

I really loved this unique story. When I first heard the topic, I thought it sounded crazy. I was wrong. This was beautifully written and I enjoyed it so much. The passages where Lewis professes his love for Wren are especially poignant. This is honestly so good!

A rare 5 star from me.@loved the book (though not lots of information) and the paintings and art that was included. A very quick read too.

Reading day at the park with hubby.

To start tomorrow.

A beautiful story about love and the resiliency required to sustain hope. Shortly after Wren and Lewis are married, he is diagnosed with a genetic mutation that is turning him into a great white shark. This novel follows our two main characters, as well as Wren's mother, Angela. Most of the chapters are short (one or two paragraphs), making this a quick read.

Well written but it just wasn‘t for me. I thought I would struggle with the magical realism of people mutating into animals but that surprisingly wasn‘t an issue. I was bored and really had to push myself to finish it. ⭐️⭐️

“ Wren looked at her hands first thing every morning and pretended they were her mother‘s hands — hands that never left her, hands that lived on in the foggy transition between sleeping and waking.”

While very strange to the unsuspecting or shallow reader, this is a story about love and hope, and change. Change is presented physically as people literally morphing into wild animals, but it‘s also about emotional growth. Book #123 in 2024

Beyond excited to dig into the amazing @monalyisha 's #AuldLangSpine list in the new year! I've read (and largely loved) 6.5 (didn't finish Bear during #CampLitsy due to time, not disinterest!), including the tagged, which I read because it was on @Deblovestoread 's #AuldLangSpine list for 2024! 🦈❤️ Quite a few others were already on my TBR. Feeling lucky with these titles to choose from!
