Welcome to Litsy!

Listened to this book today and it was sad, it was amusing, and it was wonderful. How does Bachman have so much insight without actually being in that situation. His imagination certainly has not left him. For anyone who has a parent or loved one suffering the ravages of altzheimer‘s or dimentia, this book will make you look at it differently. I do. #108 #BookSpinBingo #20 #TAILSandTALESforADULTS #35 #BUZZWORDATHON #HSREADATHON

Finally got to read book #3 in the Beezus & Ramona series: Ramona the Brave! These stories are so cute and Ramona truly was brave - she was in first grade after all. My great-niece starts first grade tomorrow. I know she will be brave, too. She loves school! #107 #BookSpinBingo #23 #TAILSandTALESforADULTS #34 #SERIES2021 #HSREADATHON

This book was ridiculously funny. I thought I misread when I saw “flying houses”, but no, that was correct. And the etiquette of the ladies of the Society was just too much. Anyway, it will be on it‘s way to you very soon, Sarah! #105 #BookSpinBingo #1 #TAILSandTALESforADULTS #32 #THEROYALREADATHON - GusGus a cheesy book #HSREADATHON #7

I liked this book. It made me laugh and nearly made me cry. I thought the characters were endearing and I was rooting for them. Casey McQuiston wanted to give us “a spark of joy and hope” and she did! #103 #BookSpinBingo #10 #BFC21 #5 #TAILSandTALESforADULTS #30 #THEROYALREADATHON - Sidekicks - HerHer #HSREADATHON

Finished this one today. I love the way Ashley Clark weaves her stories together so that the characters from one book support the characters of the next. This book touched my heart as did the first one: The Dress Shop on King‘s Street. There‘s another coming soon! #102 #BookSpinBingo July DS and #25 August #BFC21 #4 #TAILSandTALESforADULTS #29 #SERIES2021 #AwesomeAugust #THEROUALREADATHON - Abu #HSREADATHON

Listened to this audiobook yesterday - it‘s only 4 hours - and it was so funny! I mean with a hero by the name of Hiccup, how could it not be. As part of his initiation to his Viking tribe, he has to capture and train a dragon. Loved his method. I laughed out loud at the antics of the Vikings and dragons. Scottish narrator was great! #101 #BookSpinBingo #21 #BFC21 #3 #TAILSandTALESforADULTS #28 #AwesomeAugust #ROYALREADATHON Mushu #HSREADATHON

This was a short book by JANE Austen. It was full of mismatches and trickery by Lady Susan. Very entertaining! #100YEARS100BOOKS #100!!! #BookSpinBingo #4 #BFC21 #2 #TAILSandTALESforADULTS #27 #Classics #LITSYSUMMERCAMP #AwesomeAugust #THEROYALREADATHON Olaf

First book of August! This book is a must-read. It tells of a black family in the south struggling to survive, dealing with racism and “the way things are”. Excellently done. Don‘t miss reading/listening to the Author‘s note at the end. It made me cry. I want to read the rest of the Logan family books now. #100YEARS100BOOKS #99 #BookSpinBingo #BS #11 #BFC21 #1 #TAILSandTALESforADULTS #26 #THEROYALREADATHON #SERIES2021 #LITSYSUMMERCAMP #1

I have wanted to read this book since March when I first heard about it. I finally managed it. It seemed very long, but then ebooks often seem long to me. The story was sweet at times and the effort to protect children from people that would take advantage of them was admirable. #100YEARS100BOOKS #98 #BookSpinBingo #19 #TAILSandTALESforADULTS #25

This book is from our local library and it was a wonderful read about Martha Washington‘s life. It portrayed her as a strong woman, very empathetic and a fierce protector of her family and especially George. The inclusion of many things about their daily lives were very interesting and made me feel I could understand her better. She loved being a mother. #100YEARS100BOOKS #97 #BookSpinBingo #12 (Bingo!) #TAILSandTALESforADULTS #24 #FIRSTLADIES
