Welcome to Litsy!

Joan and her young son were some of the #lasttoleave the zoo right around the time when shit got REAL- Real effed up. The time frame of this book is only a couple hours and it is NUTS. Totes thrilling. #aprella

I‘m guessing there will be someone that is #lasttoleave in this book. It‘s been on my radar since it came out last year so when I spotted it in the shop a few weeks ago for Qc I had to get it #aprella ??

No trip to Copenhagen without a visit to my favourite bookstore, Politikens Boghal. I could have been the #lasttoleave with my arms full of books, but I‘m on a #bookbuyingban and had Andreas, my bf, sighing impatiently every 30 seconds. So, I restrained myself, and only looked, and sighed a bit myself over all the pretty covers 😍

After a cholera epidemic kills her parents and the servants, Mary Lennox is discovered alive but alone in the empty house. She is the #lasttoleave the house in India before being sent to live with her uncle in Yorkshire.
Love this classic.

#Aprella #LastToLeave I forgot I used this book for a 🎼prompt last month, but I couldn't help but think of Augustine, an aging astronomer who refuses to evacuate the isolated arctic research center he is stationed at when there's a world-wide catastrophic event. He thinks he's alone there until he discovers Iris, a strange young girl who was left behind. In the event that the world might be ending, I wouldn't want to be the last to leave. 😳

This is the first thing that came to mind for #lasttoleave. Not the best part of Dorothy's #adventure, which comes from the original #firstinseries Oz book. #Aprella #readingresolutions #aprilbookishmadness

You‘re going to be the #lasttoleave if you‘re enjoying a three martini lunch. 🍸 🍸 🍸 I have yet to read this but I bought it upon release because I loved The Other Typist so much. Rindell has another book coming out so I should get to this. I haven‘t seen it around much—anyone read it? #aprella

This prompt stumped me and all I have is Ignatius Reilly 😂 Who will no doubt grow up to be the old man who yells at clouds, and will most definitely be the #LastToLeave any place, harassing and haranguing others, delivering one lecture after another about theology and geometry, overstaying his welcome.

After living through generations together, residents of a small fishing island in Newfoundland are offered compensation by the government to leave. Everyone slowly accepts except for stubborn old Moses Sweetland... He is determined to be the #lasttoleave the island and hatches a plan to be able to stay behind. This book is a dark comedy and also a bit of a tragedy... So beautifully written.
