Welcome to Litsy!

Read the first of these stories about two disillusioned individuals escaping their professions and finding each other in a ski resort in Denver. It was amusing and had a satisfying ending - just what I want from a holiday short story! #150 #BookSpinBingo #10 #BS #BFC21 #DashingDecember #CSReadathon #RIF #Jinglebellathon #Cosyathon #TheFestiveReadathon #CYO #MERRY&BRIGHT #MerryBookmas #AVeryMerryBingo #AnyWayYouReadathon #Wintercosy #AVeryMerryRead

I‘ve been wanting to read this for awhile, so when Audible offered it as a gift to their members, I grabbed it. It made me feel as though I was there in London during the war. It was very good. @Andrew65 you would like it I think. #147 #BFC21 #CSReadathon #RIF 8 #Cosyathon #TheFestiveReadathon #CYO #AVeryMerryBingo #AVeryMerryReadathon

Just found and listened to this Middle Grade book about a group of kids and their adventures seeing Santa at the Mall. It was hilarious! A million hundred #WGWordSearch words and lots of laughs. #146 #BookSpinBingo #15 #BFC21 #CSReadathon #RIF #Fairytaleathon #Cosyathon #TheFestiveReadathon #AVeryMerryBingo #Wintercosy #LittenListen #AVeryMerryReadathon

Finished the #MistletoeManiacs #TeamBuddyRead. There could have been more festivities and #WGWordSearch words IMHO. There were some twists and turns. But truly, I have never heard of a town having a viewing of Midnight Mass at the Vatican with a bar. That just made me laugh! #144 #BFC21 #CSReadathon #RIF #TistheReadson #Fairytaleathon #Cosyathon #FestiveReadathon #CYO #MerryBookmas #AVeryMerryBingo #Wintercosy #LittenListen #AVeryMerryReadathon

Of the three books in the Men At Work based around holidays, this was second best. If you're looking for something more focused on Hanukkah (but lightly) this fits the bill. Ian is Flash's boss and they hooked up six months ago. Ian is a goody-two-shoes wealthy son of a Senator. Veronica is a lady welder, hence the Flash nickname. This book was just as spicy as the previous two but there was some added light kink in this, too.

My second ever Christie and first Hecule Poirot book. This one kept me guessing who done it and I can see (again) why Agatha Christie is so popular. It felt set in it's contemporary time but didn't feel stodgy by today's standards. I will certainly be reading others by this author.

Set over the course of a year, we follow Jess and Alex, who meet while sharing a home with 3 others. Both are at a crossroads in life and starting over. I felt that we got to know Alex and side characters more than Jess. She was a little bland. It was fairly predictable but light & cute for the time of year. A pick but I'm not shouting it from the rooftops of Notting Hill.

I read this for the December #sundaybuddyread

I loved this one! Given the premise and the way it starts out, I was kept wondering how it would play out. It was full of Christmassy things like a cabin, family, sledding, snow sculptures, and the tree. I will likely read this in a few years.

This was my official #bookspin December book. I didn't read my double spin this month. @TheAromaofBooks

I'm glad to be finished with the series. This very well could be an unpopular opinion, but overall the series dragged and the descriptive language meant to evoke whimsy & wonder grated my nerves. Finale has less of the weird similes, but a few still made it in. This is another book where the Dragna sisters are in a game, or aren't they? Don't believe anything, except this one time, numerous times. It felt like there were too many characters ⬇️

This was my first time reading this book and I really enjoyed it. The narrator was engaging and the story moved on at a good pace. As someone who watches The Muppets version annually, it was fun to know that the "...who did NOT die" line isn't a Grover exclusive.
