Welcome to Litsy!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️This book has been on my shelf since basically the minute I finished Williams‘ Seven Days in June, so I hadn‘t read a summary of it in a long time, and that was actually a really fun way to go into it.
There‘s romance, Black history, Harlem Renaissance, and some magical realism thrown in to make it extra special. I listened to this one except the very end and I thought the two readers did a great job.
Tia Williams is a must read for me.

This has the right title, I feel like I've been reading it for an eternity and nothing has happened. I don't know if it's because Mack Reynolds passed away before finishing it, and Dean Ing completed the story, but it moves like s friggin glacier. I don't mind a slow burn mystery but this is ridiculous. #hailthebail

The girl he had met on a bench in the plaza near the bus stop had told him the only hotel in town suitable for a gringo was the Casa de Sierra Nevada.

Oh, yes please. The blend of sci fi how could technology help to figure out the origins of immortality - and history/archaeology - looking back on how the continuity of an unkillable human would affect the civilizations they interact with, the flow of myths, information, even artifacts. And then there's the plight of the immortal warrior - so much loss and no rest - and then there's the very well plotted/paced intrigue 1/?

I loved this. I really appreciate this smart and funny author. Magical realism and romance aren't necessarily my thing but I'm here for it regardless.

I have really been looking forward to reading this because I loved Seven Days in June. This one didn't come near to living up for me. I'm not sure I can pinpoint why, but it felt less mature to me. Maybe it was because of the mc, who I found annoying. It didn't feel like the same author wrote this one. It's gotten lots of praise, though, so count me as an outlier 🤷‍♀️. I'm calling it a soft pick.

#ShadowCat is doing yoga. Guess he needed some time on the mat.

I'll give him a few more minutes and continue with the tagged #ARC.
