Welcome to Litsy!

Actually loved this. Not as light as I thought it would be, which really worked for me. Lots of grief and confusion here.

About halfway done. Pretty good so far!

Number 78 for #roll100 and this was great! Not what I expected but really enjoyed this sad coming of age story. Definitely reminiscent of Stephen King‘s works from a teenage POV, with some really poignant moments.

Sad book rather than spooky book.
Bittersweet mix of childhood nostalgia (imagination, adventures, making friends, first crush, ghost stories, standing up for yourself), and encountering grown up realities (mental health concerns, life threatening neural injuries/conditions, trauma and danger). 1/2

I admit the word search slows reading way down for physical books but it‘s kind of fun too. 📝 #BatBrigade #Scarathlon #Ghost #Moon #AutumPlease #31by31 #BookSpinBingo #Spookoween #Rushathon

Finished this on my first solo road trip with my little superhero.
I found this to be a promising start, a very slow middle, and an unexpected, heart wrenching ending.

Currently reading. Just started it. Hope its good. Looked good. #scarathlon #batbrigade

I really enjoyed this non-fiction account of the Hill family of daredevils who each had a close relationship with Niagara Falls. Reading of their exploits along with others who attempted to go over the Falls (some more successfully than others) was fascinating. The author knew the family and area well which added to the book.

Looking for a Halloween read that isn't scary or gory, here it is. A moving, coming of age, family story. Jake, his misfit friends, and oddball uncle start a ghost club the summer of Jake's 12th Bday. They investigate local ghost stories, myths, and legends, and lose a little innocence along the way.

Also, who knew Nick Cutter had an alias? Actually I think NC is the alias, and Craig Davidson is his real name. 🤷‍♀️
