Welcome to Litsy!

I really liked the first part where we were following the story in real time. I lost some interest in the descriptions of what other people thought happened in the following 50 years.

Word for Day 21 of #ScarathlonDailyPrompts was Missing.

What happened to the missing crew of the Mary Celeste?

I love history and this story has always intrigued me. This is an in-depth look at the mystery that surrounds the Mary Celeste. Highly recommend this title if you are interested in maritime history.

Well, these characters are a bit mysterious, as they have disappeared.

In 1872, the Mary Celeste was found with little damage but no crew onboard, starting an enduring mystery and much drama. Ghost Ship details the history of the ship and it‘s crew, the aftermath, the hoaxes, and the best guess about what happened based on available information. It‘s quite the page-turner!

Next up Ghost Ship 👻
This movie has one of the most memorable/gory opening scenes of any horror movie that I have seen.

Started off a little slow with the back story of the ship and it‘s unfortunate crew. Once that groundwork was laid tho, it moved pretty swiftly through the investigation, the numerous (sometimes outlandish) theories to a final, more plausible description of what probably happened to the crew of the Mary Celeste. Overall it‘s a well researched book and I would recommend it.

#bookmail and #litsylove today. What an awesome surprise to come home to. The tagged book is from ThriftBooks and On the Road was a #bookcrossing swap. Yay #happymail. Now to write some responses and do some reading before bed.

The only thing I could find for #MessageInABottle was the Nicholas Sparks book, so I went for the #ship prompt instead. #WhatAWayToLive #PiratesLife
