Welcome to Litsy!

Ooof, this book… 🫣 #CampLitsy

Library hold finally came in. Starting it today. #camplitsy

#camplitsy “everything burns” summer is officially over when the last Camp Litsy read is done 😭😭 this is really not my usual genre but holy smokes ( see what I did there?) is it good! It took me three days to read the first half and now that I‘m immune to violence and bad choices, one afternoon to inhale the rest 🎶 fire‘s burning, fire‘s burning, draw nearer, draw nearer…..🎶

Oh man this was stressful. Can‘t wait to talk about it on Saturday. #CampLitsy

Finished it, still not sure how I feel. Glad it was a library book at least. #camplitsy25 #summerreads #summerjob

I started this coming off of a minor slump and was so relieved that it was so propulsive. A nine months pregnant woman trying to make it across Portland on foot after a major earthquake, cue the tension and anxiety. The pages almost turned themselves and yet I didn‘t looove this as much as everyone else at #camplitsy seems to. It was like a good action movie- thrilling in the moment but not overly impactful. Still a pick. #14books14weeks Book 13

A survivor tale- how does an expectant mother keep herself and her unborn child safe after the BIG ONE occurs? Intense!!! #CampLitsy @BarbaraBB @squirrelbrain @Megabooks

I think the Wheel of Fortune is trying to tell me something. Two of these were on my list last month. 😂 @CBee (Didn‘t get the tag once again. Curious. 🤔
