Welcome to Litsy!

I‘m getting real creeps from the cult. Seriously, what is up with them. I‘ve got a weird feeling about them. I don‘t trust them.

Thank you, sweet friend. I smiled when I saw this was from you. I have something for you, but I am stuck home with pneumonia so will mail when better (whenever that is). I so look forward to reading this and I love our book friendship. 😘

This book made me want to cancel my lunch plans yesterday and stay home all day and read. I am so glad the higher praise Wait get on Litsy convinced me to give her another try after not loving another of her books because this story about a young mother and her daughter‘s journey through their involvement with a cult was fantastic.

Indeed!! 🤓

Such a creepy/atmospheric read, just how Joe managed to create such a palpable, mesmerising read in a novella is a true credit to his writing skills. I devoured this in one sitting as I couldnt put it down, I just had to see where it would end and it did not disappoint as some novellas can when they seem to end abruptly once they have reached a certain word count. Such a well woven story for a compact read. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

“Slowly, over time, God had moved further and further away, until He was eventually nothing more than an idea - and someone else‘s idea, at that.”

No, it‘s not as good as Our Fathers, but this story about a young woman and her 12 year old daughter, falling under the spell of The Prophet, pulled me in from the first page and I read it in a day!

My October stats. The holidays are coming which means Christmas reads so I'm expecting vastly different numbers in a month lol.
My average time to finish is skewed because it took me so long to finish the newest Robert Galbraith novel, a #chunkster at over 900 pages. #chunksterchallenge2024

I didn‘t get to this short story (part of the Creature Feature collection on Amazon) last year, so I listened to it today as a warm up to #HauntedShelf. Creepy for sure!
