Welcome to Litsy!

A psychological thriller that I couldn‘t put down! Eve has a good life, good husband and is a high school maths teacher. Last year, the school where she teaches was rocked by a scandal involving a student/teacher affair. That student was Addie. This year Addie is in Eve‘s maths class and her husbands English class. There are so many twisting secrets and a great revenge plot. It was such a quick read with short chapters.

I‘m so happy I reread this one. It is just so good. I‘ve never watched the movie. My daughter told me she hasn‘t read the book or seen the movie. We plan on reading it together this summer & watching the movie afterwards. #raisingreaders #readbannedbooks

Spent the morning on the garden now time for an afternoon read 📖💕

For a while I was reading it and was not really into it, Charlie being more of an observer than participant in his own life resonated with how I‘d felt in my life at times but I didn‘t really see where it was going & the ending came & blew me away completely not what I expected. The 20th anniversary afterword was cute.
Excited for the discussion #withthebanned

This was truly a heartbreaking story. It had me crying so much towards the end. It was beautifully written and, incredibly heartfelt. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Next up for my movie/bookclub. I was surprised there was a 6-week hold for the ebook across my 3 library cards.

This book overtly states from the beginning that it is not one of those transcendent “kid dying of cancer” books, and it isn‘t. Main character Greg is a hopelessly awkward not quite lovable goofball who finds his social strategy of being universally forgettable destroyed when forced by his mom to re-befriend Rachel, a girl fighting leukemia. The book is funny, honest, but also so unsentimental that the driving tragedy of it seems hollow.

Anyone else listening to songs mentioned?
