Welcome to Litsy!

Listening to a new book!

Up next on audio for a bingo. I love books about books and reading! ❤️

#bookspinbingo

Something happens near the end of this book that I think is highly unbelievable; however, I still liked this story of second chances. I loved the characters and the parrots. Night #audiowalk today.

I‘ve got about 2 hours left in this book. Troy is a hateful one. It was quite chilly this morning. I even had to wear a jacket! #audiowalk

Because of this book, I am also simultaneously reading Spoon River Anthology, which I apparently never read in school. I‘m enjoying it too and am reminded of Lincoln in the Bardo. #audiowalk

It was 43° when I left the house this morning; it eventually got up to 74°. Still liking this book. #audiowalk

I think I‘m going to like this book; I feel invested in the characters. I picked up my granddaughter from school, and we went for a walk by the bay and out to dinner for sushi (her) and ramen (me). What a lovely day! #audiowalk

I inhaled this on audio - the perfect book to listen to while I tackle chores and be lazy on a Monday
Violet is in jail for vehicular manslaughter and belongs to a book club, we meet all the book club members, the volunteer running bookclub and learn all their stories while they connect to the books they read

My latest on audio, I have this Monday to myself and a massively long list of To Dos that may or may not get tackled cuz it‘s going to feel like 32° today #lastblastofsummer

There's so many big concepts to discuss in this one; perfect for a book club. Violet is a recently released prisoner struggling with guilt and grief. Harriet is a widowed woman who leads a prison book club. Frank is a widower attempting to move on to a new future. The concept of forgiveness is a big one. Also, I kept thinking about the motherless daughters in the book: Sophie, Kristy, and Violet. Each one struggles with grief in a different way.
