Welcome to Litsy!

A retired detective and his daughter run a successful food recreation restaurant and the new customers bring forward stories of loss, love, misunderstandings and valuing the gifts you have along with painfully good descriptions of food.
5/5 stars, read for a collection of short stories that will remind you of the power of food to shape one‘s life. I also really enjoy the traditional food ware described, it‘s fun to look each piece up for images.

having listened 2 this & physically read We Solve Murders, I‘ve come 2 the conclusion I don‘t find Richard Osman funny. I enjoyed the characters enough in this 1 but there were so many, it was hard to follow listening to the audio. Maybe because I‘m not in the best headspace right now, I just wanted it to be done so I could listen to something else. I heard the other books in the series are better so will give those a listen at some point.

Unfortunately, my ebook doesn‘t seem to have a proper cover, so I copy this one off Amazon. When you look at the cover you expect something completely different - Nancy Drew and the Mystery of the Red Eyes or something. 🤣🤣🤣 Even though it is somewhat misleading, I still like the major plot line because it was interesting.

I didn't like this at all.

I thoroughly enjoyed this Golden Age murder mystery. The characters are almost all over-the-top cariacatures, and as such, were hilarious. Gossip and judgment turns to murder and there‘s suspicion all around—and there‘s no shortage of witty dialogue and clever characterization along the way. This was my December #BookSpin (yes, another belated review!).

Book... rentals?? Ugh!

3.5 ⭐A kid turned me onto this book with his Letter about Literature. When you start a letter with “My mom ‘s dead, but not by a serial killer”, you know something interesting is going on. This kid was talking about the book 14 Ways to Die in which our main character decides to participate in a social media show. She has one purpose: to find her mother ‘s killer. Her mother was the first victim of a serial killer that has not been

Sarah Morton returns home to Anglesey for the funeral of her estranged father. His will reveals that their family has ties to the 1859 shipwreck of the 'Royal Charter' & Sarah is pulled into a race to find the stolen treasure.

This is one of those books where the synopsis sounds more exciting than the book proves to be. It has almost every cliché you would expect & nothing is really a big surprise. (continued)

⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cozy Mystery

Serial killers, murder, and a cute little town à la Richard Scarry! Count me in cause I absolutely loved this book.

In fact, I want a copy to come back to later. This was epic and I don't want to share much to ruin the story, but if you don't mind a gruesome cute graphic novel, check this one out!
