Welcome to Litsy!

This didn‘t really work for me although there were elements I liked - the setting of Venice and the Gothic novel tones. Mostly though I was left wondering what the point of it all was. It didn‘t feel that suspenseful, the ending fell flat and it‘s one of those where you wish the characters would just communicate! Definitely a good book for the #titlesandtunes #dramaqueen though 👑

Sarina Summers will stop at nothing to have it all. Nicole Hicks harbors a fierce obsession with Sarina. Nice girl Bitty Jack Carlson is caught in the crossfire. It‘s survival of the fittest. Which girl will come out on top?

This story was insane with an ending even crazier. Lots of girl/mom drama. Highly recommended if you like catty dark comedies. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

If you are a fan of the movie, Labyrinth, then you will like this book. It follows the movie 95% but there were additional scenes and dialogue that replaced the signing from the movie. What I loved best about this book was that it included Jim Henson's notes and Brian Froud's illustrations while collaborating ideas for the movie. 4⭐️

Nothing like a good book and a glass of the golden remedy to ease your mind, am I right? If you've read this, you'll know this last phrase is repeated over and over. After a while, I was repeating it to my cats ('That's some yummy food, am I right?'). It's one of many careless phrases uttered by the happy that serve to irritate the miserable in Awad's theater of the absurd. A perfect dark comic meditation on the gulf between sickness and wellness.

My pick for September‘s #TitlesAndTunes #DramaQueen
I quite enjoyed this book—it was fast-paced & entertaining with lots of twists & turns. A psychopath going after psychopath is students in a secret college program was a fun premise. I did figure out the whodunnit, but it still kept me guessing. Yes, Chloe, the MC is a psychopath (& a drama queen) but you can‘t help rooting for her (or maybe that‘s just me🤪)!!

I chose this book for #TitlesAndTunes #DramaQueen because of its title but it doesn‘t fit the prompt at all 🤷🏻‍♀️ The drama is real in Segher‘s short story collection, which mostly is about nazism and the war.
In the title story, for example, a woman imagines herself with her old schoolmates on a class trip. She intersperses her descriptions of the children in the years before the war with the lives they grew up to endure. A tough read.

If you're looking for a crime novel where you're involved and can try to figure out who did it - this is not it. The story is more about Samsons day to day happenings, following him through Kiev in 1919. Kurkow is more about writing about the town in the midst of history, than actually solving crimes.

It's a very low pick and I often thought about not continuing this series. But there's something about the characters and the narration that ⬇

What a sweet story. Just what I‘m looking for in romantic fiction! Lovable main characters and an adorable drama queen dog. Fun!

I recently received the #ARC from #NetGalley and thought it was maybe appropriate for this month's topic. The title made me think of road trips and that reminded me that, long before I first read Good Omens, we used to listen to Queen's Greatest Hits (on a cassette tape) when on family trips (now I feel ancient). Anyway, my favourite back then was Don't Stop Me Now (link in comments)
