Welcome to Litsy!

#MarchIntoOz Day 9: These graphic novels powerfully depict #DevilInside - one‘s struggles with one‘s inner demons, compulsions that haunt one‘s being, swallowing a being whole until there is nothing left.

This graphic novel feels great in the hands. It is oversized with thick pages. Feiffer's artwork is compelling, but it was a challenge trying to tell some of these characters apart. Two gruff men of similar build. FOUR blonde women. They all start to look the same. Mostly I was underwhelmed by the story. Part one is great and kicks off in 1930s California. Part two jumps ahead ten years and really stretches the bounds of believability.

Carried the graphic novel to #BYOB. Ate some honey jalapeno boneless wings. Found out that this Mom is a badass.

"We don't get many unescorted single gals. A few years ago I wouldn't be serving a single gal unescorted, but now--since they up and gave you gals the vote, anything goes. You're so big, maybe they gave you two, three votes. No stoppin' you gals these days, am I right?"

Also starting. This graphic novel is large and I don't feel like lugging it around everywhere I go so I'm making it my indoor read. It's also good to have a backup book for when the cat decides to use the original current read as a pillow (again). No book is safe from her cat naps. #MooMoo #catsoflitsy

Books that arrived for me as part of our research project that looks at intersections of literature, psychology, art; and yes, reading, feeling and serving. Expecting a lot of foreign titles learned about/read from Munich to arrive in my doorstep soon (nearly 200 titles) so I can use them in my teaching and our current research and professional development workshops. When work becomes love.

This was a wild ride but a good one. Feiffer's art is so active and energetic. If you like crazy old mysteries (like Whatever Happened to Baby Jane) you'll enjoy this one. #24in48 #24in48readathon

Here are Miles and Louis, my usual reading companions. They're both holding back remarkably well from their usual task: that of chewing the corners of the book I'm reading. They're posing with my next read, and hopefully the title won't influence their actions. 😬 #24in48 #readathon @Litsy
