Welcome to Litsy!

This book is a mixture of history and fiction. It's about Isaac Newton's suspicious circumstances surrounding his appointment as a Fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge, in 1667. I learned about Newton's involvement with glassmaking and alchemy. The book switches back and forth between the present and the 17th century.

I read this book about 6 years ago and I probably won‘t forget it. I really enjoyed this book and still have it on my bookshelves.

I‘ve only been on Litsy for about a year, so there are plenty of books I read and loved!

The tagged book is one of them. Others would be Tell the Wolves I‘m Home, Water for Elephants and The Storied Life of AJ Fikry.

It's a nice speculative, historical fiction about Newton. This book gives you a different perspective on Newton, a very different one. The only thing I didn't like about it is the lack of excitement leading to the BIG reveal. Stott just dumped everything in one go and I didn't quite expect it (not in a good way).

#TBRtemptation post 1! Based on a real-life historical mystery. Cambridge historian Elizabeth Vogelsang, dies with a glass prism in your hands and her magnum opus on Isaac Newton's alchemical secrets unfinished. Her son, Cameron, asks his former lover, Lydia, to ghostwrite the final sections. What she uncovers links a series of murders associated with Elizabeth's research. Heavy on the scholarship. #blameLitsy #blameMrBook 😎

When I think candy I think chocolate. So for today's #candycolouredcovers I have chosen a Snickers match. (Candy is courtesy of my son's gift bag he brought home tonight from a friend's birthday party at the rodeo. Mmmm... will it last the night?) This book is on my tbr stack and it looks so good. Anyone read it yet? #feistyfeb
