Welcome to Litsy!

I finished the KC Davis book in February but it took till July to read Kilrone.

So, my February #BookSpinBingo is done! 😂

I'll either get caught up by December or just start fresh in 2026!

I usually love the Sackett family novels by L'Amour. This one, though, didn't do it for me. I rated this a 2.5 across multiple platforms but rounded up for the graphic.

I've got one more by L'Amour in my pressing pile but now I don't know. I'll give it a shot. If it's a mediocre as this one, I may just circle back to it at a later date.

Shout out to Moffat Library, Midwestern State University, Wichita Falls, TX for the copy of the book from ILL!

Finally made my way to this classic because a friend wanted to watch the John Wayne adaptation (it couldn't hold a candle to this novel, if you were wondering). The dialogue is every bit as delightful as you've always heard and Donna Tartt's narration is phenomenal. A book I could revel in but it was so engrossing I ended up finishing it in a day. Here's to the rereads to come!

The Sisters Brothers is marketed as a dark comedy Western. Dark comedies are one of my fav sub genres. However, I could not for the life of me find the humor. The writing style was very simple and straightforward musings from Eli Sisters (who I found naive and annoying). The plot felt repetitive following their journey and I did not like the callous violence. A scene with a child was when I decided it just wasn‘t my cup of tea.

It has been a while since I have read a Western novel. I loved it, the characters were believable. l loved the plot of the book also. I rated the book a 4 out of 5 stars.

Finished today for #AuthorAMonth May. I loved James & wanted to read more Everett & ended up with this one because it was available from my library. I don‘t read a lot of Westerns it‘s just not a genre I gravitate to, but Everett drew me in with his sly wit & dark humor that had me laughing while also wincing at the racism & ignorance of the MC, Curt Marder & other characters in the book. I did not love the ending.

I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it.
