Welcome to Litsy!

This was one of my most anticipated reads of 2025. It‘s a story about grisly serial murders in post-WWII London. We see how two different journalists covered the notorious crimes for both newspaper and legal review case study. It‘s a must-read for true crime addicts, but WARNING: sexual violence to women. #truecrime

I absolutely loved this! Such a detailed study, not only of the two main characters but also of the peripheral players and the town itself.

Catherine and George Clare have moved from the city to a farmhouse haunted by a previous tragedy, when Catherine is also found murdered.

Thanks for sending this to me some time ago @BarbaraBB - it‘s one that I‘m going to be thinking about for quite some time!

Fingers crossed

Satirical and silly—and just a little mysterious! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

An interesting novel of sorts. 3 friends, all writers, decided to write a novel together and head to Scotland for a research trip. As I read this, I felt like this was just a fun little story that juxtaposed the authors with fictional versions of themselves.

This is a cozy novel as much as it is a female empowerment novel. With alternating chapters featuring the 3 writers, it has them playing Miss Marple/Jessica Fletcher types. 3.5 ⭐️ #BookSky

I easily binged this series. The mysteries were fun and i enjoy the relationships between the various characters.

I read three bangers in a row but The Antidote was the best book this year, absolutely incredible. I personally did not enjoy The Long Island Compromise.

Finished this out on the deck and got choked up by the ending. Great read!

Two women traumatized by violent loss meet up in a trauma group, then decide maybe they can help each other. This was an enjoyable enough thriller to listen to, but most of the twists seemed very obvious and the big one at the end was unconvincing.
