An astonishing account of an astonishing man‘s life.
Probably could have been better with some more editing. But I still enjoyed it, even though it took me forever to read, and I learned A LOT. Wow. I didn‘t know barely anything about Luther or the Protestant Reformation before reading this book. The book is a biography of Luther‘s life — not the Reformation — so it ends when Luther dies. Would be interested to learn about the Reformation after his death.
3.5/5⭐️
Read “twittered” and immediately thought of Twitter as we know it today. I then started thinking about what the Reformation would have been like with social media.. and then I found this gem of an image on Google. 😆🐣
1. Who knew a long book about a 16th century German monk would be so enthralling.
2. 🤷♀️ Small town - we don‘t have much going on.. but according to the newspaper there‘s supposed to be a “Trashion” show lol
3. If only.. I would love to read all weekend
4. What do you call it when a Catholic remodels their kitchen? — a counter reformation 🤣
5. 👍🏻

Why does tomorrow have to be Monday? ☹️ I need at least one more day of chihuahua cuddles and books. #dogsoflitsy #petsoflitsy
My hold came through from the library for the tagged book finally. Hope to start it soon!
Meme found on google.. I couldn‘t help it lol it‘s just too funny. No offense to the Catholics out there (I was raised Catholic myself) 😂
#TBRtemptation post 2! I've heard a lot of gold things about this recently released book as well. On the 500th anniversary of the 95 Theses' posting, comes an extensively detailed biography of one of history's most influential figures. It's the tale of a humble man who revealed the ugliness of powerful men and whose protestations resound through today. #blameLitsy #blameMrBook 😎
About 30 minutes after I returned all my library books I was notified that my library hold was ready. 😂 time for this lapsed Lutheran to review church history (last visited over 25 years ago in Confirmation)
