Welcome to Litsy!

Loving this book (audio version on Spotify) so much! It‘s about the women authors that influenced Jane Austen. It might take me a whole year to get through it because after each chapter, I want to go read something from the author she‘s talking about! Fascinating! #ThankYouLitsy for the recommendation!

#MerryChristmas #bookstack #thankyouLitsy Thanks so much fellow Littens who sent books and cards.(the stack includes family gifts too).I never got to cards for anyone this year;illness got in the way.But now I have many cards to send as aThank you,for all the generosity & good tidings I received. Love this space. Love all the book reviews, suggestions, life sharing, photo posts.You all have become an integral part of my life- 3 yrs this spring! ❤️

I use to be ashamed I read YA and Romance. The main reason I got a kindle was so I didn‘t want to be judged based on the books I read and on a kindle I could hide them and still enjoy them.

Since joining litsy I have grown out of that and now don‘t care what others think. Just because I‘m in my 30‘s and read YA (teen books) doesn‘t make me less of a reader.

I took a longer lunch today so I could finish this one. It was very good! It was touching and really liked the characters in this one. I love realistic characters. This was a read I classified as #blameitonlitsy but it doesn't feel right to blame a community for opening your eyes to a new author. So I'm changing it to #thankyoulitsy and I will definitely be checking out the other novels by this author everyone has raved about 😀

“Justyce is a good kid. An honor student. On his way to Yale. So, why is he the one in handcuffs?” Remarks on back cover. This first novel by Nic Stone is an attempt to examine current affairs through the lens of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.‘s teachings. #thankyoulitsy #fiercefeb #tobeyounggiftedandblack #blackhistorymonth

I loved this 💓. It was written in a sparing and gentle way, yet was brutal at times. I had been completely ignorant of this period of Korean/Japanese history. I came to love all the characters, so much so I wanted more time spent with the characters in the final third of the book - for me this book could have been twice as long! Rather than a #blameitonlitsy this is a #thankyoulitsy as I might not have discovered this otherwise.
