Welcome to Litsy!

I picked up way too many books at the SF Friends of the Library Book Sale.

I've read several books about comedy and comedians, and this is definitely one of the best. Instead of just a who's who of the famous and infamous from vaudeville until today, the author shows the evolution of comedy, how certain comedians or styles of comedy influenced future generations. Only one knock on the author/narrator, stop doing impressions, they're terrible!! 5 💥💥💥💥💥 out of 5.

The thunderstorm is perfect for music and snuggling. I shut off the air and opened the patio door to hear the thunder. The Husband is gonna complain in the morning that it was muggy in here when he got home from work; I'll feign ignorance: "oh, it was hot in here? Sorry, babe, I dunno. That's so weird."

Snuck out for fish and chips by myself yesterday at lunch. I like my coworkers, but sometimes it doesn't feel like a real break if I don't get away from them.

PS, I love my Kindle. 💕 I decided on the Kindle over the Kobo, but eReaders in general have improved so much I probably would have loved either.

From Vaudeville to Podcasts, here‘s a rundown on a bunch of funny people, and where they brought the funny.

Nacho average lunchtime read ;) I started reading this for our monthly book club pick so I can't really give a detailed analysis yet but I've heard nothing but good things.

I'm not sure why this Latin phrase isn't used more.
