Welcome to Litsy!

Bk3 of July & Bk2 of #JubilantJuly #readathon is done. I think audiobooks might be the way to go for now, at least I‘m finishing them! I was pleasantly surprised by this testosterone thriller, the MC does some awful things but I completely understood why he was doing it & was cheering him on. The narrator was perfect for the character & the fact the author had been a SEAL made it believable. 4.5⭐️ #BookspinBingo #SeriesRead2022 #AudiobookChallenge

Oh do I wish I could visit Coopers Chase! Just as good as the first in the series, and the audiobook continues to be fantastically narrated. When do we get a 3rd book? Hoping this gets a TV adaptation at some point too!

Bk12 of August & Bk1 of #LittensDressedInBlood is done! Read as an audiobook while #audioknitting the narration was brilliant. Especially the ads at the beginning of each chapter, they set the mood perfectly. A blend of satire & horror, you can just imagine what the atmosphere would be like in one of those IKEA stores after midnight. Add in the site of a 19thC prison. Nope. Uh uh. #PickYourPoison #PennyPerPage #BookspinBingo #AudiobookChallenge

Bk23 of June, Bk16 of #JoysOfJune #readathon & Bk7 of #LittenListen is done! This one was a reread as an audiobook on audible. I love all of Kate Morton‘s books, the fact she‘s an Aussie author doesn‘t hurt either🇦🇺Her sweeping stories always involve a beautiful manor house somewhere in England, sometimes with an Aussie connection. They invoke such a soft English summer feel, far removed from our harsh humid ones here. Loved it. #BookspinBingo👇

Bk22 of June, Bk15 of #JoysOfJune #readathon & Bk6 of #LittenListen is done! Another NF true crime/memoir, this is written & narrated by a reporter who worked with Michelle McNamara, before her death in 2016. After doing the crime beat for a Long Island newspaper, Jensen decides he wants to try & solve crimes, not just write about them. Teaming up with McNamara & on his own investigations he tries to bring answers to grieving families. 👇👇

Bk6 of June & Bk3 of #LittenListen is done! I actually read the 3rd book first so now I‘m backtracking & finished the 1st book in this Alien canon. Another full cast recording, it was brilliantly done with Rutger Hauer playing Ash, the rogue Cyborg/AI from the first movie. It‘s a side story where Ripleys lifeboat is picked up by a mining ship who are having their own issues after stumbling on a nest in a mine. #SeriesRead2021 #StackingTheSeries👇

Bk4 of June & Bk2 of #LittenListen is done. Today was not one of my best days but I managed to add this audiobook to my total & I‘m over halfway through the 2nd Midsomer Murder on ebook, so I accomplished something! This was set in the timeline of Aliens, a little bit of Ripley but mostly about Newts backstory & how she ended up alone on a station full of monsters. I loved it was a full cast recording, audible does a great job with those. 👇

Bk10 of #JumpStart2021 #PickYourPoison #ByAJournalist #AudiobookChallenge #AussieAuthor21 #Pageathon #CloakDaggerChal #ReadItAgainSam #PennyPerPage #362cents & #20in4 #readathon is done! A reread by audiobook again, it also has an interview with both the author & narrator at the end, which was brilliant. Her 3rd novel which isn‘t a Falk book,it‘s set on a QLD cattle station owned by 3 bros, until one is found dead, miles from his well stocked car.
