Welcome to Litsy!

Sometimes you need to get out of your head (and off your FB news feed) and bury your head in a book. Decided to take a brisk walk to the local coffee shop and knock out some of my library books.

“What?” Umar and I asked in unison.
“That tonight, we don‘t stop dancing until the sun comes up.”
And that was exactly what we did.

From the standpoint of ambience, the good people at Howard Johnson's had decided to carry the colors of their well-known rooftop into the restaurant by dressing the booths in bright orange and the waitresses in bright blue - despite the fact that the combination of orange and blue hasn't been known to stimulate an appetite since the beginning of time. 😆

#sharreadathon @sharread liked A Gentleman in Moscow @TheAromaofBooks

1. N/A; looking for work at the moment

2. I don‘t think Miles particularly likes being a teacher

I think I will read the tagged in honor of @sharread

A Gentleman in Moscow was one of the last books that she posted and enjoyed.

I will also devote my time in the land of Fourth Wing this week.

Oh, was this a journey — I feel like I traveled the 1500 miles (in the wrong direction) with Emmett and Billy. And I‘m now in an absolute tangled mess over the final act — feeling every which way about where characters ended up and the choices they made.

All this to say, it was as engrossing and affecting as I always hope a novel will be.

This was a nice coming of age story about a boy who has no one and nowhere to go. It was a lighter, quick read and I felt connected to the characters. Mostly fiction, as the only real historical fiction is the giraffes being driven across the country. But it was nice to see that story become a story. Giraffes humming is probably my favourite fact I learned.

I just can't do it anymore. They're finally getting together and I'm not even indifferent, I'm actively put off. 😞

I plan to spend a cozy evening for #hyggehourreadathon by starting West With Giraffes with a hot tea while the cold stays outside. Starting my #DoubleSpin before my BookSpin since it's a library book and I'll have to return it in a couple of weeks. This is a perfect way to end the weekend and reset for the week after the kids are in bed!
