Welcome to Litsy!

Today's 'scratched my brain just right' sentence. 💭

'Banned it?' Andrew said with a grin. 'How do you ban being patronizing?'

'Well, there were certain phrases he used that made me mad because they didn't sound rude but you knew they were. You know, things like "If you think about it," which means you're not thinking about it, and "With respect," which basically means without respect. "I think you'll find" is another one. I fined him twenty-five cents every time he said something like that.'

I see,' he said again. You've been planning this for some time, then.'

He made it sound like a bank raid, Megan thought, or maybe premeditated murder. But she would not allow him to make her feel guilty; she had done far more than her share. 'Yes,' she said briskly. I'm twenty-one and I think it's time I started my own life.'

2.5⭐️ While the book was written very well, I just didn‘t connect very well with the characters. Partly it had to do with the fact that I was unable to put a time period to the story. #bookclub #canadian #fiction #historicalfiction

I didn't love this one, and the ending was a little vague for my tastes. But I did enjoy the Indigenous spirituality aspect of it. The story follows five generations of Metis women as they struggle with their heritage and generational trauma. There were so many POVs but the audiobook did make it easy to follow with a full cast of narrators. The writing itself was beautifully done

Love this author! This was a good book. I feel it wasn‘t the best book that Carley Fortune had written. For me it was a bit slow and somewhat drawn out. But still a good read.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
This was the perfect book to kick off summer reading! All of the island friendships and romances were spot on for this beachy setting🏝️

No....girl, say less

Waiting to meet a friend for dinner & coffee at a coffee shop that is new to me. Only 12 minutes from work, by the airport. A little further for him, but he doesn‘t mind. He was my mentor- I student taught with him. ❤️ Delicious looking croissants for tomorrow‘s breakfast are in the white boxes.🥐
