Welcome to Litsy!

What a treat to read a Christmas story that's not a Hallmark romance. Yes the ending is predictable, but it doesn't lessen the joy of the novel. Oswald Campbell moves from Chicago to Lost River, Alabama because of his health. The community he finds there, including a little girl named Patsy, Jack the cardinal, & Frances, the local busy body, all create the home & family he wasn't expecting. Just the feel-good Christmas read I was hoping for.

This is a re read for me. I love it in both the audio and regular format. It is normally something I read at Christmas, but it is good at anytime.

My holiday plans!

I have many fav books from #LetterR. This is one of the heartwarming stories 🥰 Other books worth mentioning are Rebecca, Reading list, Revolutionary genius of plants ( #naturalitsy) & my current read Railways children.

I couldn‘t think of book starting from #LetterQ except my current read Queen‘s secret. 😬 #alphabetgame

I don't read books based on whatever season it happens to be, but I picked this up in early December and absolutely loved it!

A feel good story about a Chicago man who moves south for his health and ends up loving his new life and community, and the bird who changes everyone.

I'm hanging on to this book as there are recipes at the end that sound amazing.

I LOVED this book! I love the author- I definitely recommend watching reruns of Match Game when she was a regular. This was a delightful small town story about community and love and a special redbird. If I were a Grinch, my heart would have grown three sizes just reading this book! ❤

I really loved this audiobook. Fannie Flagg narrates this herself and does a great job. I‘m surprised I actually enjoyed the story of Sookie more than I did the parts set back in WWII, but it was all good. Sookie‘s mom was a piece of work! I learned about the women who flew planes in WWII — something that never seems to be talked about. If you enjoy southern fiction you will probably enjoy this. FF is quickly becoming one of my favorites! 4.5⭐️

1 When I was expecting my youngest, I had my grandmother record herself reading one of those Hallmark books. She died last year and I gave the book to my mother.
