Welcome to Litsy!

If you‘re used to Marian‘s fiction stories you won‘t be disappointed by her essays. She uses the same writing style and depth mixed with humor when discussing her own life. She somehow forgot one key thing in the giant subtitle: Booze.
🍀🍀🍀🍀

I read this for the #WhatsInANameChallenge - I needed “footwear” and “Shoes “ is in the subtitle.

Also read this for #bookspinbingo last month but am late posting my reviews!

Had to read something I knew I would love… AQ never disappoints. #WiaN2023 #WhatsinaNameChallenge #WiaN_Celebration #essays #NonFiction #DogsofLitsy #EstherWhiningforIceCubes #CopperSprawl

No doubts that when asked my favorite authors, that Ann Patchett is in the mix! I was impressed with her #debut and will continue to work through her oeuvre.

Also, this fits the Mythical Being category for #WiaN2022 #WhatsinaNameChallenge
