Welcome to Litsy!

#SummerSouls #Cocktail

I switched between the paperback version and the audiobook (my May #bookspin selection) while knitting my first tee shirt. #knittersoflitsy #audioknitting

This book was okay, but Clare was super annoying until the end. I hope she lightens up in the next book since I own almost the whole series. And I want to love them. I do hope I am not falling out of love with #cozymysteries. I own A LOT of them. Maybe I just need a break.

#currentread resting after two crazy days in NOLA 🤣 I still have one more day here, but all this walking is killing me old lady knees 🤣 #kingcakeFTW

My first book finished for #JoyousJanuary and oh, how I loved this book! Lucia is Kit's upstairs neighbor, and when Kit ventures up to Lucia's apartment one day Lucia tells her all about growing up in an Italian family in Greenwich village in the 1950's and working as a seamstress in the custom department at B. Altman department store.

I think I first did a #redstack picture a few years ago for another Litsy challenge! The bookcase later went to my coworker, but I still have all the books except the tagged one. Kili is swooping in from the left because he‘s fascinated by the netting. #humbleharvest #catsoflitsy

This felt like a rather long winded introspection on accountability for bad deeds. The analogy of Trump to the Joker felt particularly poignant given this weeks headlines. But was it an engaging read? Not really. #AuthorAMonth

Just finished my first book by Salman Rushdie. I didn‘t love it. I didn‘t hate it. I didn‘t really connect with it.

#bookplates Haven‘t posted one of these in awhile. When I was reading things from the 1920s I was obsessed with finding this book, pre internet days . Wilson was primarily a critic , went to school with F.Scott Fitzgerald , his marriage to Mary McCarthy was tumultuous & detailed in several works. Not considered a great novel , more of interest because characters are based on people he hung with in Greenwich Village.Even kept hand written receipt!

This was a solid “meh” for me. That‘s about all I can say.

"Our home was full of tenured professors, male and female, helping. I had all the help in the world from the leading experts in Sumerian art, subatomic physics, First Amendment law, and Commonwealth literature. But nobody could help me look at the bodies."
