Welcome to Litsy!

This was a cute rom-com!

The premise is so fun. Two authors facing immense writers block decide to “switch” plot ideas for their next books.

The star of the book was the two authors, Allie and Martin, and their writing relationship and friendship. I love that an old male crime author can become friends with a young female romance author.

🌀 this book opened doors that I‘m still learning how to walk-through. & for that, I know I‘ll be returning to it‘s pages later on in life. I feel it reaching toward me, but there are pieces I know I‘ll understand more deeply with time and experience. #nonfiction #audiobook #feminism #naturalitsy #reading #booklover #bibliophile #uncommon

As powerful as Blackie's words are- I have a problem with such stark contrast between lyrical storytelling & the raw, messy edges of everyday life...
However, I admire that she shares voices of other women, offering #ecofeminism & real-life examples of how we can shape our own journey & bring that wisdom back into your immediate world.

I‘m studying the complexities of human behavior and the consequences of misreading people!
One of these fictions will come home from the library with me today, in hopes that it will be the perfect companion read for
Talking to Strangers by Malcom Gladwell.

This is the second book in the Miner & Mulville series, but can be read as a standalone. I have not read the first book and was able to follow this book just fine.

My first impression was that it was very evident the author is a doctor. The medical parts were incredibly detailed.

This was a super cute middle grade romance!

First off, I loved the amusement park setting. The majority of the story took place there and it worked so well. It was fun and added to the playfulness of the romance. The park reminded me a lot of the fictional Walley World from the movie, “National Lampoon‘s Vacation” (which is a movie I love).

What a gorgeous Hawaiian mystery drama!

I‘ve been to Hawai‘i many times, but surprisingly I have never been to Kaua‘i. I was very eager to get a glimpse of the island through this book and it did not disappoint.

This book may be classified as a mystery, but it is so much more than that. It explores Hawaiian life, especially the family dynamics.

This was an incredible look into the Italian resistance and the women involved!

Going into this book, I didn‘t know a whole lot about what went on in Italy during WWII. That being said, I learned so much from this book, not just about these 4 courageous women, but also about the war in general.
