Welcome to Litsy!

I had to bail on a book so I‘m one month behind but I‘m hoping to catch up with a couple of smaller teen books (my favorite!). 🍎🍏

I have traveled thousands of miles, through many decades and read about all walks of lives. Some read to remember and some read to forget. Whatever your reason, just read and enjoy. #34of2023

Today‘s Prompt: BOOK WITH A WEEKDAY

HISTORICAL FICTION - MYSTERY

Have you read this book?

Ms. McMorris knows how to tell a story and keep you interested.

SOLD ON A MONDAY is a beautiful story about caring and compassion.

And was heartwarming as well as heartbreaking.

Based on a true story, young Muhammad Najem broadcast to the world (using his smartphone) about the unrest and violence in Syria. By starting with social media, the news was spotted by CNN; the rest is history!

McDermid sure knows how to keep one reading! This was a quick moving, suspenseful read that had me hooked from the first murder.
One thing though, Lindsay should really consider changing her friend circle. All of them ending up suspects for murder, it would make me think.

A so-so rating. Not great, just okay. I was invested in the part of the tale that was a mother selling her children in the Depression Era. I think the story started out well and ended up just okay. It was bogged down by too many twists and sideplots until it was a little bit about a bunch of things rather than a tale I could get lost in. It sort of felt like a YA book to me and the title and cover felt misleading 🤷🏻‍♀️

63 degrees and sunny ☀️ I‘m finishing up my Book Club selection ahead of this week‘s meeting. Husband is fishing in the backyard-you can see his red shirt in the background. And our dog is (of course) rolling around in the pollen. A perfect day to read outside.

Starting to read this backlist book in preparation for an author event! Oh my! What a sad, profound premise!
