Welcome to Litsy!

This is only really a so-so pick for me because while it had a lot of things going for it (vampires, New Orleans) the main character, Victoria, drove me nuts. She and her former bestie, Henry, fly to NOLA to find a vampire- they‘re real- so Victoria can get turned so that she can turn her beloved father who is dying. This is a book about what it means to live and while I appreciated the message, the execution fell short for me.

I have been mostly off the grid due to school and a wild weekend moving Con (and three of his friends) to a new place to live this weekend. I wish I had read this book in one or two sittings, I think I would have enjoyed it better. The story of a cult based on a remote Scottish island. Because I read it in fits and starts, I often found it difficult to follow. It wasn‘t the page-turner The Last House on Needless St. Was, but still good.

A lovely quiet book about a man wrestling with his conscience. Perfect rainy day read.

This is a pick, kinda sorta. Norma has never felt like she fit in. Joe has spent his whole life running away from his guilt. This is a story about family. It took me forever to read. #theslumpisreal
Hopefully we will get a chance to chat about it @ShelleyBooksie & @dabbe
