Welcome to Litsy!

This was interesting. I liked reading about different buildings, like the Mitaka lofts and the Fable hospital, and the scientific theories and research that went into their design. We spend a lot of time in indoor spaces, whether it‘s school, home, work, the office, or the gym, so it was fun to look at how their flow and design and access to or incorporation of natural elements can impact our health, mood, and thought processes.

What this really made me wonder is, what if the Weimar Republic hadn‘t ended? In WWII books the end of the Weimar Republic always feels like a forgone conclusion, but I don‘t think it felt that way to people living through it.

Whew, I don‘t know much about Bauhaus. But the dislike that the author holds for Gropius‘s wife Alma, seems over the top and problematic.

I joined StoryGraph… just in base Jeff figures out there is something he owns that he hasn‘t ruined yet. I‘m the same there as I am here. #loonyandproud #storygraph

Humble brag? 😂🥳

I got myself a couple cute book sleeves. Now I have um 3.

Ended up at 728 for the first two weeks. I am pretty bummed that I didn‘t even break a thousand — but I am going to ramp things up for the back half!

#WhereAreYouMonday - I cannot read just one book.

I started my day with the ARC of "Love at a Funeral and Other Awkward Conversations" - New Jersey, in spitting distance to NYC.

Moved on to "Earls' Trip", takes place in Cumbria mostly.

Fugitive Telemetry ('Murderbot 6') in the car - space station (not pictured).

Now "The Ghost Cat" , set in Edinburgh.

Later "Lover Revealed" is set in Caldwell, fictional city in NY State, north of NYC.
